BA Baracus Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 7 is better than 8, but less likely to be better than 6. Even though 6 is more likely better than 7, the number 5 spot is definitely better than all of those previously mentioned. I am not sure about 4, but anything above that is in the top 3, I think. In a ten team league, I dont like being 11 or 12, for sure. Thou shalt pulleth the pin of the holy hand grenade and count unto 3. Thou shalt not count to 2 without proceeding directly to 3.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ernie McCracken Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 (edited) so much for trying to add meaningful discussion here... i give up. Does that mean you won't be back? I figured once they told you your services were no longer needed at the huddle ( aka you were fired) you'd be gone, but better late than never. Maybe now there can actually be some "meaningful discussion" without your stupid snarky commentary. I'm sure one of your local adult book stores needs a jizz mopper.

I, for one, like Darin's input. If you don't, why don't you just ignore him rather than spout kindergarten playground insults? :thinking: :thinking: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Elf Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I love the 7 spot. In a PPR, I see 11 RBs before any significant value drop happens: A. Peterson D. Martin A. Foster J. Charles T. Richardson C. Spiller R. Rice M. Lynch A. Morris L. McCoy M. Forte Really? No significant value drop between Charles and McCoy? Charles and Forte? I guess maybe not everyone considers 125 points "significant," but I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistolkid Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Who needs stinking RB's. This year, running backs just seem so scarce, and QB is so deep that I would feel very uncomfortable about my team if I didn't take two RBs by the end of the 3rd round. Maybe in a 10 team draft I wouldn't draft RB-RB in the first two rounds, but even then it still gets pretty ugly quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joessfl Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Exactly what I thought of when I read his post. Honestly, I started writing it and by the second sentence, i think that movie quote popped into my head, and I kept going from there. Classic stuff all over that movie. "Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

dirtdickens Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I will admit I haven't been on this board in the last 6 months or any for that matter, just kind of doing my own thing. I have been very shocked at how far back Rice is being ranked. Cam Cam is gone. Pierce if anything is an addition by keeping Rice healthier and fresher. People forget Rice has had some monster runs and a couple of TDs called back for penalties. Would love to find an actual stat on that. I counted three last year, one was a 60+ yarder and a couple of GL TDs. Ive got RR my #5 RB in my PPR league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbimm Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Agree... Rice is really getting no love this year. I would happily take him with the 7th pick. I took him with the 7th pick in the draft I mentioned earlier in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stethant Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) I have been very shocked at how far back Rice is being ranked. People seem to forget that you don't have to hit the HR in Round 1, you just need someone solid with as high of a floor as you can get. I think Mr. Muto said something like that earlier in another thread: if you guess wrong with a 1st round RB - and many of them flame out every year as DMD's analysis shows - your season is practically cooked from the get-go. Personally, in a non-PPR league I'll take the more boring Lynch or Rice over the "sexy" Spiller or Richardson 9 times out of 10. The astute drafters make their killings in later rounds by recognizing value that others miss. Edited August 20, 2013 by stethant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Elf Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 People seem to forget that you don't have to hit the HR in Round 1, you just need someone solid with as low of a floor as you can get. Ryan Torain has a pretty low floor. Draft him in the first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like More Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I don't think 7th is as bad of a spot this year as it has been in previous seasons. You can get a solid RB1 (Lynch, Rice, Forte) and get a top tier WR on the turn. I think drafting 4th through 7th is where I would like to be at this season. Obviously, you can draft a good team from any position. It's all about striking gold in the mid rounds anyways... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I got Spiller at the 7th pick in my draft so I'm pretty happy with that. 10 man standard league scoring also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
