CardinalEmpire.com Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 The guppies got me good. After grabbing RB/RB in Rounds 1 & 2 (10 team redraft, no PPR), I felt like I spent the rest of the night on my heels chasing big runs on positions I thought went too early. So many WR's were gone by pick 27 that I actually chose to take Antonio Gates with my 3rd-rounder. Then the QB run came in the Here's how it panned out... QB - McNabb, Kitna (LOVE) RB - FWP, Rudi, Adrian Peterson, Tatum Bell WR - Boldin, Calvin Johnson, Bernard Berrian, Mark Clayton, D.J. Hackett TE - Gates DEF - Pittsburgh K - Elam We were allowed to draft up to 6 WR's, which I guess should have been a clue since that is two more than any other position limit. Still, what can I do to improve this? Or is it better than I think? Just looking for folks to confirm my fears or pull me in from the ledge.

Dont Rookie Me........ Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 The question to me here is whether Calvin = all he his hype if so you are ok at receiver not stellar but your two rb's should make up for the loss. Overall I hate relying on a rookie to help me out so your nervousness is warranted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo chiefs Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Play it out. I think you're fine. Did you see Calvin in pre-season games. He was agressive and diving forward for every yard. Looked impressive. And Q-tip (Boldin) is a stud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishPride Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I think your Ok, Ride the wave brother..........Boldin, Calvin Johnson, Bernard Berrian, Mark Clayton, D.J. Hackett, If i had to start 3 it would be Boldin,Johnson,Hackett, having Berrian and clayton as back ups isn't that bad....Just week to week your going have to figure out who to start.........

Zooty Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 You'll be fine trade Tatum after a couple weeks for a good #2 before KJ comes back and after Tatum has a few good games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ts Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Since no PPR, Boldin has a bit less FF value than he might, as he's not a big red zone target. I like Hackett, but he's not going to carry your WR corps (ditto Berrian), so Calvin better be the player you hope he's going to be ... still all is not lost, if you play matchups correctly during the year.

PantherDave Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I think your solid enough at WR-spectacular-No, but solid nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gros Membres! Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 You should be fine - Boldin has had a promising preseason, Johnson has a ton of upside and Berrian, Hackett, or Clayton all have great shots at being contributors. I tend to think matchups are really the way to go in FF and I think you've set yourself up nicely in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhpatsfan Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I think Berrian will have a decent year. 7-8 Td's, 1000 yards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.K.Trey Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Play it out. I think you're fine. Did you see Calvin in pre-season games. He was agressive and diving forward for every yard.
