tomfin2000 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 12 team keeper league, start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF, standard performance scoring with a 5 point bonus for 100 yard rushers and a 3 point bonus for 100 yard receivers. I took over an abandoned team and it's a real dog. What can I say? I like a challenge! Here are my six keepers: QB - Delhomme RB - McGahee, Gore WR - Mason, Booker (No, I'm NOT kidding!) TE - Gonzo I have the 2nd overall pick in the upcomming draft. Top RBs available are... J. Jones K. Jones R. Droughns J. Lewis C. Dillon D. Foster ...and of course, all of the rookies. I expect all of these backs and most of the rookies to be gone by the time my 2nd round pick (23rd overall) comes up. Right now I'm leaning towards either J. Jones or K. Jones. Thoughts? Also, would you trade McGahee and the 2nd overall pick for Alexander and the 30th overall pick? Best WRs are on the board are DJax, Driver, and Galloway. Best QBs on the board are McNabb, Hasslebeck and Bulger, but that's the least of my concerns as Delhomme should be fine for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUBJPO01 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I wouldn't mind getting J. JOnes there, just back him up with Barber. As for the Alexander deal, I think that is steal if you can pull it off. He'll probably out produce McGahee and any one of those RB's you listed combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfin2000 Posted July 29, 2006 Author Share Posted July 29, 2006 I've been made an offer to trade my 2nd overall pick and Derrick Mason for the 6th overall pick and Javon Walker. Should I pull the trigger? My main concern is that there won't be much upside left at RB by the 6th pick if everyone goes after the rookies.

cdj7k Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 at this point, not being positive about walkers knee condition, i think mason with mcnair will have about the same numbers as walker, even if he is healthy. you need the running backs, i would stick where you are and get the best running back you can. i think i would take your top rookie rb at the #2 pick. i think there are to many questions surrounding most of those guys. it is a crap shoot with any of them, i think. i like k jones, but so what, he could be a dog again this year.

Footballjoe Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I would use the approach that you will not win this year so look to next year or the year after. Go with the younger players that are "expected" to be the man in the future. Maybe KJ as well, I do not expect big things from him this year but maybe after a year or two under Martz he will be a very solid performer.
