CardinalEmpire.com Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 (edited) Drafted a 10-team performance league last night. Standard scoring except we give 6 points per passing TD. No PPR. Roster below with round player taken in parentheses. I picked 6. QB - McNabb (5), Garrard (11) RB - Forte (1), R. Grant (4), R. Rice (7), L. Johnson (8) WR - Cal Johnson (2), Jennings (3), Bowe (6), Avery (12) TE - Owens (9), Shockey (14) K - Elam (13) DEF - Giants (10) Obviously I pulled the trigger early at QB and D, but people we literally picking 2nd-string guys at those positions before I jumped in. I had the choice of Forte, DWilliams, and Tomlinson when my 1st-rounder came up. Thought Forte was a steal originally, but now I'm reading a lot of naysayers on various sites. Should I have gone LT? Was also very surprised to see Hasselbeck go about 3 rounds early, Carlson stolen from me a round early, and Henry lifted just before my last pick (thought he was buried far enough that no one in my league knew). Any opinions on what I might be able to swing for an upgrade at RB? We only HAVE to start 1 per week (1QB, 1RB, 2WR, 1R/W, 1TE, 1K, 1D), but I wouldn't mind getting someone more solid to lead my team. Or am I just panicking after reading some disparaging Forte bashers? Edited September 4, 2009 by CardinalEmpire.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS Miscreant Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 You're fine a RB. Don't sweat it. I know the feeling with regard to the back ups being taken early. I was more or less forced to take Palmer in the 6th(not that there's anything wrong with that) the other day because 5 1/2 rounds in and 3 teams already have 2 QBs. What the $#@!? That's ok though... they just made themselves weaker at other positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LayLow Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I'd be more worried about my QB and TE then my RB...Sheesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Agreed Rbs are fine with 1 per week. QB onl if mcnabb plays well are you OK. TE who cares!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
