10th pick

[ROMOTOOWENS]

Just got my draft slot for my big money league. 10th pick out of 10. Any thoughts what I should do? Initially I wanted Bree's since it's high scoring for Qbs, but this kind of forces me to do other things.

 

[Ekspozed]

Brees is a pretty safe pick

 

[DALLAScornhusker]

Points per reception?

If you are picking last, you usually get the 11th pick also and it goes back down the line.

You better be thinking 10th AND 11th picks

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

Yes I get 10 11. 30 31. 50 51. I did a mock earlier. I have always wanted at least one superstar player that can always be counted on. The players picked were Lacy. Dez. Cobb. A.brown. T Richardson. Radhaad jennings.

I actually like that but could have gotten MUuray BAll or BRees at 11. There were just no appealing Rbs at 30 and the Wrs looked to good. I could have gotten v. Davis at 51 but there are so many tight ends now.

Sounds like a homer comment, but Dez and Murray are guys to look at in that spot.

Yep both should be there. I used to like my flex position as a RB, but since the running back by comittee has began the WRs see, more consistent. I still know I have to take a back with that first pick though if not 2 from what I saw at 30. Now I didnt mind Richardson at 50. Heck he could be huge , but who knows.

You aren't going to target him there, but IMO the guy to get this year, relative to when he will be taken, is Julio Jones. I am going to do my darnedest to get him in every league.

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

I may - I want to have 1 star at least- thats why I dont really want to go Lacy, Murray, Ball. 2 of the 3. If I dont take a WR there, I will miss out on top 6 at least probably- Calvin, AJ, Dez, Julio, Thomas, Marshall

I don't like where he is projecting to go this year (5/6th WR). At that spot, it seems extremely risky for a guy that broke the same bone with screws inserted from a previous injury. From a guy who owned him last year, I don't think I'd touch him until guys like Jordy Nelson, Antonio Brown or Alshon Jeffrey are off the board. I think the price becomes reasonable around where guys with limited upside would go (Welker, Cruz, Roddy White's of the world).
I'm in a 12 team, 0.5ppr and am sitting at #2, which means I get #23 & #26. I'm sure Julio will make it to me, and I intend to pass.

YOu know Im not a Cowboys fan but I'd be all over Murray/Dez at 10 and 11. Im assuming he's from Texas and that alway means Cowboys will be picked higher then they should so he might not have that opportunity. I think Dallas has a top O and a lower level D. I think Cowboy players are going to be great FF prospects because they are going to have to put up points. And to be honest, if I had 10/11 and landed Dez/Murray I would target Romo later in your draft. THe Cowboys are going to be a great team for FF players this year. Lastly, Dez is going in to his final season of his first contract. He is going to be a stud this year.

Huhh? Julio Jones wont be there at 23 or 26 and Im taking him way before any of those guys you listed.

just did another mock- They will both be there. For some reason I cant pull the trigger on Murray that high. I took Dez, Rogers . Came back at 30, 31 with Gronk, A. Brown. Thats rolling the dice not taking a RB until pick 50. There just isnt anything appealing at 30, 31 in terms of RBs. Definitely not liking this slot

are you in a PPR league? If so you might want to reconsider on Murray. Curious though. Who did you take at 11?

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

I took Aaron Rodgers at 11. No its not a PPR. 1 pt for 10 yds 6 for TD .

My theory here is its only a 10 team league so I have to gain advantages to win. I think Rodgers, Brees, Manning gives you an adv at QB. I think Graham gives you a huge adv at TE. Gronk- if healthy- the same.

Dez and A. Brown would be a great duo at WR. / As far as RB- after about 3 or 4 it gets a little dicey. Picking here I cant afford to miss.

Like I always say to you on these threads, the scoring system is the key to who you pick. If it isn't a PPR that certainly changes things. Also, just realized it was a 10 team league which changes things a little too.

I expect a lot of catches from Murray this year. Big fantasy year for him IMO.

It's actually a 40 team league broken into 4 divisions. It heavily favors Qbs. This will be the 4rth year of league. So yes each player can be on 4 different teams. Bree's has been on all 12 teams possible in the 3 years of the league. Of those 12 teams, 10 have made playoffs. Bree's will put up around 420 points a yr. if you don't get one of those top 3 Qbs, the Romo's will score about 330 a year.

The top 5 Wrs will be around 200

Top Rbs 250 to 275. Murray had about 200 last yr. 1 pt for every 10. 6 for td.

I'm thinking with Rogers I can get 380. And DEz 200. The thing is at 30 31. I could get. Cobb and brown who can also get 200.

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

Pick 2 of 3. Rogers. DEz. Murray/ball

 

[DALLAScornhusker]

No ppr - I tend to seek TDs and Denver is at the top of the list for those. I would roll with Ball and see what he can do. Its a little leap of faith that could pay huge dividends.
