im thinking of either grabbing manning and 2 wr's early, or hope for an addai slip
Taking Manning at #6 would be a big mistake even though I think he could easily be the top fantasy QB. In a league where people know what they are doing, there is no way that Addai should slide as low as #7. He's a top 4 pick, maybe top 5 if someone prefers SJax.
Even in a scoring only league? Yards don't mean squat to me. TD's only. You really can't say what one person should do in a draft until the five people in front of you make their stupid ass selections. Some weird shit always happens and then you adjust.
I think my list is good. I hope to get two of them because I pick #5 in the second round.
Quarterbacks are usually overrated in fantasy leagues and they just are not as consistent as running backs are. If Addai, Westbrook, SJax, or Portis are available at that #6 pick, I'd take them over a QB personally. It's just too hard to tell when a guy like Brady will have a great season or a guy like Manning will fall off a bit like what happened last year. Anyone see Big Ben passing for a million touchdowns despite not throwing the ball that much on a run-first team? I just think running backs are more consistent and are a safer pick than a quarterback. I'd much rather have two excellent running backs and take a Rivers/Cutler/ type in the later rounds since they both are in good spots to throw a lot more than previous years.
jake t, guy like manning can consistently throw up 2-3 td's 250-300 yards a week. 1 pt for 50 passing yards in my league. i think manning can consistently put up 22-30 points a week.
name me rb's who you think can put up 22-30 points a week using this scoring system: 1 pt 10 rush yards, 1 pt 10 recieve yards, 6 pts td.
yea but i want first round point production, not second level with a lower tier rb. im thinking of just loading up with qb and recievers right away, then taking some stabs at like a earnest graham, fred taylor, brandon jacobs, lendale white, selvin young type. if i can get a manning/brady and moss/wayne in the first 2 i think that'll be a good start.
