Best Value Keeper, IYO?

[the outlaw]

12-teams, up to 4 keepers, standard performance scoring, no PPR, all TDs (incl. passing) = 6 pts

 

L. Bell - costs 1st Round (11th overall), but misses Wks 1/2

 

Or,

 

M. Evans - costs 4th Round (38th overall), I understand the hype and raw talent, but I feel there is still some risk there w/ a rookie QB at the helm (and yes, I'm also well aware of the whole "he was a stud as a rookie even w/ a combo of McCown and Glennon at QB" debate, as well as the "he's so freaky good, that it was actually HE that made Johnny Football look good at A&M, and not the opposite" argument).

 

Anyway, I am also keeping D. Thomas and A. Brown at WR, along with L. Murray at RB, so essentially would be set at WR if I kept Evans, but still looking for an RB1 to drop to 11th overall (assuming there are any that aren't being kept, AND slip that far), or I would have an elite RB1, that costs my 1st Round pick AND misses the first 2 games...

 

Which option do you think holds the best value? Thoughts?

 

Thanks.

I would keep Bell, you already have 2 elite WRs and an OK rb. Yea he misses the first two games but its not a big deal. If you dont keep him your rbs are gunna be rough this year with being able to keep 4 keepers. Take Bell, after week 2 you wont regret it.

I keep Bell all day and weather the storm for the two weeks... Maybe someone like F.Gore or Abdullah, Martin week one and two replace Bell.. Having Bell for the rest of the season is a bird in the hand..
