Pittman is your best value... question is if you throw back Barkley, how much do you think he will cost??

200 minus your keeper for draft, I'd imagine 50-60 and I feel like that's too high for a Philly RB

I am all in for overpaying for players in auctions... especially football... I am a stars and scrubs type of guy...

Would rather not spend 25% on the RB that:
- competes with Hurts for GL scores
- plays on a team that's done everything possible to not give one RB too big of a workload over the past few seasons
- they have a backup that they like (Gainwell) and a newly drafted 4th rd rookie (Shipley) to spell their high priced FA pickup

not disagreeing... but you do have to know which studs are going to be available, and how much your league normally bids on studs...

you know more than anyone here... if you pass on him, will there be studs to bid on?

Most studs get tossed back cause they go for a premium on draft day and there's better values elsewhere on most rosters. Plus only can keep for one season so all players cycle back through the draft regularly

auction keeper leagues are always much more difficult to advise in, there is just so many variables...


but sounds like Pittman is the way to go for you...

Barkley should be insane in this offense. Gainwell sucks, but I agree they like him.

The front office went out and targeted Barkley after a terrible finish to change the identity of the team IMO.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

I like Pittman's value too.
Richardson isnt bad but his body of work (3.5 games) and his brief yet sudden injury history is a concern.
White is another value if your league are RB horders.

Well you know me, I can't see passing up a starting, most likely 3 down, RB for the minimum $1.

I totally agree Pittman is a steal at $5, but personally I think Zuess is the best value. I'm not at all convinced that Richardson will elevate Pittman from decent to great

Wow those are some nice values white,rice for a buck each, Richardson for $2, Pittman for 5 and I like McBride for $10 even. Don't follow my advice......but I would keep McBride. Think he could be a top 3 TE and good TE's are tough to come by. You could likely find a decent alternative for less (once folks have shot their wad) perhaps but without the upside McBride has.
Going to be decent WRs that will be available for dirt cheap late in the auction ( make sure you save a decent chunk of that $200 ). Richardson is high risk high reward and as long as you grab a decent alternative he would be a consideration for me. This is a fun set up I've never done (thus the advice to not take my advice LOL). Let us know how it turns out.

White or Richardson...

Question is, how valuable is a $2 QB? Meaning, what do the top (to middle) QBs go for?
