Broken Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 (edited) 12 team - 4 player keeper league Start 2 RBs & 3 WRs Still don't know if I want to keep 4 or keep 3 & pick before the actual draft starts w/a couple of the other guys that have only kept 3 guys. I'm keeping P. Manning, T. Bell & KJ for sure. I can add D Jax, Fitz or L. Jordan to make it 4 or stick w/those 3 and get an earlier pick. Here are some of the players that will be out there: WRs - H. Ward (possibly), Boldin, Coles, Burleson, M. Clayton (TB), D. Bennett & C. Chambers. RBs - Cadillac Williams, Ronnie Brown, Arrington, Chris Brown & M. Bennett. Edited August 1, 2005 by Broken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenokee Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 If you're planning on keeping Bell, I'd take that 4th keeper option and use it to secure Lamont Jordan. Words on Jordan cover the spectrum (great to bad), so its hard to get a real read on him, especially since he's a starter for the first time in his career, with a new team. But Oakland appears to be very solid up front, with a strong WR corps and a QB that altho spotty at times, can truly carve up an NFL defense if he's on. Turner is a run oriented coach and now he has what he thinks is the runner to fill his desire to pound the ball. He's the starter, no doubting that. Bell on the other hand isn't even guaranteed starting in Denver. He's got talent, but my impression is Shannahan isn't totally convinced or sold on him yet. I may be wrong here, but that's the feel I get. With Anderson, Dayne and Clarett on the team, Bell is a big question mark at this point.

Adrenaline Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I'd keep Manning, KJ & LJ, as Fenokee wrote Bell isn't a sure starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynch Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I would keep three. You never know who will be dangling out there for you to steal. You might wind up with your own fourth player. Then again you could get someone you didn't expect. I am sold on Tatum Bell putting up huge numbers. Shanny will pick a horse and get 1200 yards from him. It is going to be Tatum and next year the question will be player or system and my answer will be it is the player, but that system is sure nice. Tatum is a stud RB just waiting for a chance to shine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So chances are Bell will not just have one "bye" week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 I'd keep Manning, KJ & LJ, as Fenokee wrote Bell isn't a sure starter. 905619[/snapback] & LJ isn't a sure thing. Of the 2, I'd say Bell has more upside. Just playing devil's advocate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Weasel Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I'd keep Lamont also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
