Keeper Help!

Hi Guys

 

I need to keep 2 players from last season. I am choosing between the below 4. I can keep them for 2 seasons.

 

Le Veon Bell - 1st Round cost

Lamar Miller - 3rd Round Cost

Allen Robinson - 8th Round Cost

Jordan Reed - 14th Round cost

 

I am picking 5th in the first round. Gurley, Brown, Julio, OBJ, Gronk, Hopkins will all be kept and assume later picks.

 

Please Help!

Wow, that's actually tougher than I thought because it's hard to not keep Bell, ARob and Reed are great values, and Miller could actually be worth more than a 3rd round. Is it standard or PPR? I'd almost be tempted to keep ARob and Reed for their values and hope to get some RBs in the first 2 rounds. But if it's standard scoring and you think there won't be any decent RBs at pick 5, then you should keep either Bell or Miller.

Sharing my opinion in the hope you will give me yours since I've got a similar keeper debate. My take is that Robinson is an absolute lock as an 8th rounder since he's sure to be a WR1 even if he slips a little vs. last year. Reed is one concussion away from missing a month because of how many he has had in the past, so for me it's a choice btw Leveon and Lamar, and I don't think you can really go wrong with either. If Leveon will be back for week 1, I would lean toward him. If it looks like he might miss a few weeks or more, I would potentially keep Lamar since he's in a great situation in Houston, with a coach who has a history of having his RB's put up big seasons.

 

Here's my dilemma. I'm in a 12 team 1/2 point PPR league that's been around a while so we have 4 keepers per team (48 total keepers), last year's draft round doesn't matter. I am definitely keeping Julio Jones and Jordy Nelson, so I have to keep 2 of the following 4 - Aaron Rodgers, D. Freeman, L. Miller, and Keenan Allen. Even though it's only 4 pts for a passing TD, the scoring system has lots of bonuses for distance TDs and for QB's that rush so 17 of the top 20 scorers last year were QB's. So my gut tells me I need to let Rodgers go. Let me know what you think.

Looking at that I would lean Allen and Miller. I would let Rogers go, and Im not sold on Freeman. He played his best games on the back of Julio killing defences. No one was playing the run those weeks. Allen was huge last year and I think he continues this season.

I totally agree with that. In any sort of PPR format, Allen should kill it. And I never trusted Freeman. The only reason he even had a second chance was because Coleman was injured in the first week (or second, can't quite recall). He had about 3 absolutely amazing weeks and rode that to one of the top positions the remainder of the year. I don't think he's actually all that great week-to-week, though.

 

Can you guys help me out with my post from awhile back. Still trying to get some more feedback:
