Opinions Needed Standard Keeper League

[HawgLegs]

 New to this Forum - 6th year enjoying The Huddle - you guys are Tuff - 

 

Before, you say I'm in the wrong Forum, hear me out - 10 TEAM Standard Keeper League ( non PPR ) made up of 10 starters, 10 bench players. Performance scoring based on levels of yards obtained with RB receiving 6 points for rushing TD, 3 points passing TD.  WR levels of yards obtained with rushing TD 6 points, TD pass 3 points, etc.

Roster make up: 

QB 2, RB 6, WR 6, TE 2, K 2, DefS/T 2

 

Can opt to keep 1 player from previous year team

 

With 4 owners keeping this year, I drew the first pick in the 1st Round and the 1st pick in the second round, which will be 5 picks later. DJ, LeV Bell, A Rod and either DeMarco Murray, Drew Brees or TGurley ( can't figure this owner out ) will be kept.

 

What is everyone's thoughts on taking WR AB with the 1st pick and take a risk on Zeke 5 picks later if available? or, would you go RB, RB - with perhaps Shady, AJayi, Dev Feeeman, Mel Gordon?

I am thinking of taking the risk of Zeke at #8 (or #13) in a ten team league.  My thought process is since we do 3 teams from each division make the playoffs that all I need to do is get to .500 by seasons end.  That should give me a chance to make the playoffs and then it's just about matchups.  

 

Tough call on your situation.  I would almost be tempted with AB given that scenario.

AB in the first is pretty safe and then RB.  I don't know if I take Zeek and pass on AB.  but with your second perhaps you could although RB depth will disappear you'd probably chase RBs a bit.
