As some of you know I kave picks 5 and 6 in the first round of my draft tomorrow. Going RB/RB is obviously not the sexy pick but im not sure if its the right pick either. My options:

Forte and Murray
Forte and Lynch
Forte and Megatron
Forte and D. Thomas
Forte and Graham

if Im really lucky someone in the top 4 goes off script and I can snag Forte and Lacy!

Thoughts?

Forte and Lacy if you can, otherwise personally I like Forte and D. Thomas

Does it change the pick if I already have Nelson, Garcon, Patterson and Terrence Williams?

My RBs are Ball and Jennings

Is this the league that you have Newton in also? What positions do you start?

I'd still go Forte and D. Thomas; you'd have Ball & Forte at RB, D. Thomas & Nelson as your WRs and you can plug in Garcon/Patterson/Williams as your flex

If Lacy was available I'd go Forte & Lacy though

So you are basically set at one running back slot, two wide receiver slots, tight end and defense. You have Jennings and Patterson for your flex already. Really the only 3 spots you should consider drafting are QB, RB, and flex. If you are fine with Newton, then I would go Forte, Murray with the first two picks. Personally if I had your lineup though I would go Forte, Manning because I just think the difference between Manning and Newton is going to be light years more than than the advantage of Murray over Jennings in your flex spot, but I'm pretty sure we've already had this conversation.

we have and I appreciate all the input I can get. I am seriously torn on what to do.

I am trying to package 2.10 and Jennings for a younger keeper and plan to push that at the draft.

At 4pt passing TD, Newton is very good. I'm not sold on Jennings, so two RBs makes the most sense to me.

You are set with Julius so i wouldnt take Jimmy G

unless you thought about moving Julius and a lesser Rb for a stud if there any to be had in the trade market and drafting Jimmy G

same goes with Julius and Wr for a stud or even Julius and a pick

but as suggested i would grab Forte-D Thomas

i feel the 4pt td takes away a little of Aaron's dominance however as Bandit stated Rodgers will still be a much better choice than Newton...

good luck tough decisions

let us know how ya do

one extra though if you do go RB RB wow you have 3 top Rb and still plenty of players to deal with later and maybe upgrade Cam at that time

well I could play both TEs at the same tince since we have the full flex

I know I could get 2.01 and Lamar Miller for 2.10 and Jennings...I could get one of the top QBs at that point but Miller is garbage.

im having very early talks with another manager.

trading 1.06 and Garcon for 1.11 and Jeffrey. I could stil get an elite player at 1.11 and to pick up jeffrey would be huge

That would suck if Lacy did fall to 5/6 with Forte though... I'd prefer to take Demaryius at 6 and try to move Garcon and a pick for a better pick or player.

you think Forte and Thomas is better than Lacy and Forte?
