I've got such a hard 4 keeper decision coming next year

Calvin Julio forte lacy Gio


Damn that's a good problem to have. Could you parlay two of those into a bigger stud right now? Like Forte and Gio into Charles?

I play in a 2 keeper league. I've kept 2 RBs every single season. As of now I plan to keep Arian/Reggie.

WR is so much deeper. The season, I picked up Vjax in the 6th round, Jordy in the 7th round, Gordon in the 9th round, Jeffery off waivers, Allen off waivers, etc.

I've made the playoffs and have been #1/#2 in scoring every season. This season I am #1 in record, #2 in points (by about 10) and I don't have - nor could get - Peyton, Brees, Rodgers, Cam, Dez, Megatron, etc. Those players are keepers.

Way things look if you can grab 3 stud receivers and and above avg QB you can win now instead of needing stud running backs....


I look at it the opposite. I have three stud RB's and Manning with average WR's and I am killing people in my league.

It seems every year guys will take a RB and pass on a stud QB or WR in rd 1.

Or will Reggie Bush, Lacy, Moreno replace rice, spiller, trich in the first rd.


I picked 7th in a 12 man league. Every single person for picks 1 through 6 picked a RB in the first round. By the time it got to me, I couldn't think of any RB worth drafting first round, so I picked Calvin Johnson. Worked for me.

It's not so much about picking one over the other. It's about taking the best talent at the best time.
