BS Miscreant Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 These are always tough without knowing what the majority of your league will be keeping and where you'll be drafting but here goes... Keeping MJD... no-brainer Calvin Johnson is also a no-brainer. Too young, too talented to not Vernon Davis is a no-brainer if you start a TE; he also a consideration just as a receiver depending on what will be kept league wide but then you have look at Colston as well The only keeper I've ever played in has always been ridulously RB heavy with regard to keepers so in my league I'd also keep Turner because there won't be anything out there that can replace him if you let him go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff5769 Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I think youre overlooking this, its simple MJD, Turner, Calvin Johnson, and Colston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) I think youre overlooking this, its simpleMJD, Turner, Calvin Johnson, and Colston Editing as I read through the responses too quick - Without knowing scoring system and lineup requirements, can;t give too specific of advice, but in most setups, Cutler is an easy drop, so really it is 4 of the 5. MJD is pretty much a no-brainer in all setups. Pretty much the same for Calvin. Turner, Colston and Davis come down to lineup reqs and scoring system. 2 required Rbs would boost Turner, PPR would reduce his value. only 2 WRs reduces Colston's value, 3 or more required would help it out. TE required helps Davis, as would PPR IMO. I'd look into shopping the 3 around, see what sorts of offers you can get for them and proceed accordingly. Maybe you can pair Turner and Colston for one of the elite backs or Colston and Davis for an elite WR, or get a decent pick for one of them and keep the other two.

HoustonBuckeye Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Vernon Davis is a no-brainer if you start a TE I disagree. Davis does not have enough of a track record to expect him to repeat last year's numbers. In that case, a "lesser" tight end will not be too far behind Davis' realistic expectations. Keep Colston instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Do you have to keep 4? Do you get an earlier pick if you don't? Will every other team keep a QB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulienMartin Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Sorry I guess the scoring system might help out a bit haha, I am worried about dropping Cutler, just bc I am late in the draft order 9th out of 10 I believe so wondering If between keepers and the early picks if Ill get a better replacement FL - Fumble Lost, Including ST plays -4 points IKRTD - Individual Kick Return TD 10 points IPRTD - Individual Punt Return TD 10 points Pa2P - Passing Two-point Conversion 3 points PaInt - Passing Interception -4 points PaTD - Passing TD 7 points PaYd - Passing Yards 0+ PaYds = 1 point for every 25 PaYds Re2P - Receiving Two-point Conversion 3 points ReTD - Receiving TD 7 points ReYd - Receiving Yards 0+ ReYds = 1 point for every 10 ReYds Ru2P - Rushing Two-point Conversion 3 points RuTD - Rushing TD 7 points RuYd - Rushing Yards 0+ RuYds = 1 point for every 10 RuYds Special Scoring for Tight Ends ReYd - Receiving Yards 0+ ReYds = 2 points for every 10 ReYds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, a "lesser" tight end will not be too far behind Davis' realistic expectations. Keep Colston instead. Although I appreciate you being a bit apprehensive, most if not all of the "experts" have him performing top 3 this year including the Huddle's #1 ranking. I'll concede "no-brainer" might be a tad overzealous but completely dismissing a guy who's projected by many to be top 3 playing a position at which you only have one line-up spot is, well, it is what it is. I wouldn't have a problem with keeping Colston based on your analysis but he's not gonna give anyone a decided edge at the WR position.

On top of that, with your scoring system, Cutler's value is kind of undermined by the -4 for interceptions. He'll need to severely curtail his penchant for throwing to the wrong team to boost his value this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
