now with both Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey, I expect him to explode this year and was gauging what others thought as to getting him like how I missed RG3 in the 7th but got Luck in the 8th.
I think I role low on QBs this year again as it did pretty well until Ben went down in one league last year.

So far im looking at

AP/Spiller
AJ Green
Ridley/Cruz
Tavon Austin/Eddie Lacy
Colin Kaep/Russell Wilson/Big Ben
Antonio Brown/Cecil Shorts/TE
WR/RB/TE at 7 & 8 spots and then Bradford at 9 or do I need to get him earlier?

I never increase QB's values by much when getting a rookie Wr

I just like what I'm seeing. He's been needkng wrs ever since he turned pro and gave Brandon Lloyd a heck of a year but with injury Amendola and a crop of level 3 wrs, he wasn't even worth a backup spot. Now with two WRs who only need for you to get them the ball and they take care of everything else, he is the perfect sleeper for a big year. I'm taking him, but I need a guage on what round to jump on. Also where to get Tavon?

Last year I missed out on RG3 and Luck killed me the first half of the season. This is backup mind you because I thought Rivers was a decent pick at 4th round and was let somebody on here convince me to wait on RG3 til the 9th which was a mistake.

QBs are so ridiculously deep this year. I'm sure you could get him towards the end of the draft. There are 12 starter quality QBs out there, not even counting the Flaccos, Daltons, Vicks, and Big Bens of the world. Depending on league size, you could probably get Bradford in the last round of your draft

Yeah I noticed how deep they were too with the addition of Luck Wilson Cap and RG3. Thanks for that.

I wouldn't go out of my way and reach for him early thinking that someone else might grab him. I think he might be good value later if you plan on filling your roster before jumping on a QB.

Keep in mind he lost Amendola, and right now Austin is unproven.

I think that QBs are deep too. We are keeping four players this year and I'm debating between keeping Matt Ryan or DMC. Other 3 keepers are TRich, Julio, and Megatron. Plus I pick last because I wont my league!

Like tots said, I wouldn't exactly put him as a premium player to target. These guys are going to have a learning curve.

I honestly think that with the more wide open offenses that the league is evolving into, stud wr/te who dominate their teams catches are the new stud rbs.

Didn't he get Jared Cook as well?

Still, I doubt he's leaps and bounds better than what he has been. 9 is too early for Bradford.
