Convince me to pick someone else other than MEGA. Assuming that Shady, Charles, AP, and Forte have all been picked. I just can't grasp picking anyone else than him at that spot.

4 point passing tds. So I'm not wasting 5th pick on any QB.

That's the plan. Just something seems rather appealing about Lacy that I keep going back and forth.

I like DT88 better this season.

Better offense, contract year.

Think about it this way. You can get lynch, or lacy in the first and still get a quailty receiver in Marshall Bryant Green Juilo in the second. If you want to go Calvin Johnson and another wide receiver in the second ( listed above) you better do you research on which running backs will be left in the 3rd and 4th rounds. I've been doing this in mocks and Morris and Ellington are the best that's left for rb 1 and 2. But again that is just based off the prob 20 mocks I've done in the last two weeks and about 75 percent of the time that's whose left at RB. I have no life and good luck bud.

I also have the 5th pick, and am probably going with CJ if the 4 RBs come off the board as expected. My question is...what do y'all think about going Brees/Rodgers in the 2nd round if either is still there? Then getting RBs in the 3rd and 4th? I've seen some mocks with Morris, Spiller, and Gerhart available then. Good idea or not?

I can't convince you because I believe that is the correct pick.

Just so you know in my league that is currently drafting

Morris went 4.1
Spiller went 4.8
Gerhart went 8.9

I personally am not a fan of taking QBs high. Feel that they arent worth what you have to spend on them. But thats just my opinion

Lacy?

That's one of the reasons I didn't want a top pick in this year's draft. Lacy was in my top 3 at RB, and I would have taken him over anyone other than AP given the opportunity. Had that happened, the best WR's likely available would have been Nelson, Cobb, Brown, Jefferey. Not a fan of having a RB1 and WR1 on the same team, and the other two are just "meh" to me. I'd go Calvin or Jimmy. Although I'm not a fan of taking any TE in round 1 either. Well, I tried. Take CJ and don't even think about it.

Never been a fan. Sorry. I'd rather one of the Packer WR's, who will most likely be picked after Brown, as well as K. Allen or V-Jax over Brown. Personally.

You'd rather VJAX who got 53% of his points in 4 games. Can I play with you?
