Maybe Forte. Maybe Morris could be available. I would rather have him.

I'd go with Jackson definitely. What WRs are available?

Probably all of them but Megatron . I forgot to mention it's a flex and everyone picks RB.. Why Drew will be . I think he will go off this year but I never pick a QB till 4 round

Do not reach on Steven Jackson there. You are trying to draft a low end RB1.

If all td's are six, then I would go for Rodgers or Brees.

I am guessing AP, Foster, Martin, Lynch, Charles, Spiller, McCoy, Calvin, Rice, and Richardson are gone. Morris could go at 11 or maybe higher though.

That leaves your choice of wide receiver plus QB and Morris. I think there is a drop after Morris, so I would avoid a second running back unless one of the top 10 players falls to you at 12.

Thanks and I agree. I'm not even a fan of Forte bc he doesn't get TDs

Is probably go Jackson, Green then.

Edit: I'd also consider MJD. He probably won't be there at your next go round and I think he's going to blow up again this year. It's a risk though.

If all top 10 running backs and Calvin are gone, then I guess reach for one of them. I probably like Forte.

Hopefully, a Saints fan will grab Brees or maybe even Graham for you.

Taking a 30 year old and another oft injured running back as your first 2 picks seems like a sure fire way to lose a league on your first 2 picks. I'drrather wait on bush or Sproles or miller next go round and take some safer picks in first 2 rounds

Ok so I've got the same scenario. 12 and 13 in a standard league. I'm thinking stick with 2 RBs as I believe the likes of Cruz and possibly Colston will be there at the end of round 3. I just hate to not have a top tier RB or WR. What y'all think?

I do not understand the Jackson hype, would much rather have Ridley.

How I feel. Second rate team all around. I'd rather be elite in some aspects and try to hit on running backs. Bell should have 300ish touches and be a workhorse back. Miller should have little competition. Bush will catch a lot of passes. Lots of options that could very realistically have better seasons than the forte or Jacksons of the world.

Well here is the team I ended up with drafting 12:

QB - R Wilson, A Smith
RB - J Charles, A Morris, Ingram
WR- V Cruz, V Jax, C Shorts, C Patterson
TE - T Gonzalez
D/St - Texans

What y'all think?
