Slow Draft Ongoing - Need Help

Postby JRM4833 » Thu Sep 02, 2010 6:58 pm

See below as well.

I have the 2nd pick in my draft this year. I took AP with my first pick but had a big dilemma with my next 2. QBs flew off the board and WRs dropped hard. Fitz, Austin, Roddy and Wayne were all still on the board to go along with RBs like Charles, Moreno and Thomas. I have never been big on taking multiple WRs early but couldn't resist and took Austin and then Fitz. Thoughts?

12 team money league with a flex. Particularly with the flex I'm worried that I'll be too short at RB.

Sorry. It's an email draft so I don't know yet. With three picks left before my next pick (and 2 of these teams already having 2 RBs), Moreno, Spiller, Wells, Stewart, Addai, etc. are left. Not the best pickings. With 9 QBs already gone, I can wait for a Favre, Eli, Palmer, Cutler or Ryan so I may be stuck with RB, RB unless I want to mix it up with a TE.

I personally like the WR/WR strategy in the 2nd and 3rd round. There is usually a big WR run in the third round, so it would have been slim pickings coming back

I don't think it's a bad idea at all, but I wouldn't have loved Fitz there. I'm down on him because of the QB upheavel in the desert

I liked Fitz being that it was early 3rd round but was very torn with Wayne and Roddy still available at the time. I ended up going with who I thought was the best overall talent despite some significant concerns. Still not convinced that WR was the right way to go though.

I ended up with Moreno and Addai with my 4th and 5th pick. Best got snagged out from under my nose. I then went Bowe and Gonzo with 6 and 7. I wish I had gotten a better 2/3 than Moreno/Addai but I'm hoping that the WR/WR option works for me. What do people think about my decision now that I have my RBs?
