blame @ehb5, just gave me something worth pondering.
one moment please

Sure. But how many rbs taken already weren't drafted to be starters. Ross will see the field and have plenty of chances to succeed. That's not guaranteed for a lot of rbs.

So will at least 60-maybe 80 other WR's..only 35-40 RB's can have that said about them and that's why the RB's go fast and furious, and WR's fall. . Sure it's a shotgun approach, and many will be misses, but there's very few second chances at them, even the backups of the backups are rostered, new WR's pop up all the time

Maybe. But if you also look at it this way...Its way more likely Ross becomes a star then a 3rd round RB...

Now to be fair I took a 3rd round RB over Ross too so Im not trying to crap on anybody's draft here.

Yea when it comes down to it, you ask yourself, do i need to take 50/50 shot on a RB, because i only have one maybe two that have a real shot at significant playing time, and live with a mediocre receiver at WR3 and flex, or do i go with the slightly better odds at receiver, knowing that even if he hits, I've still got crap at RB2?

I'll always take the shot at the RB, because i have no worries about finding the mediocre WR to plug into wr3 and/or flex

It's risk reward tolerance one way or the other

I'll take Joe Williams at 2.8

I should have known that he would not last past a Broncos fan.

Had to make at least 1 homer pick in this draft, so here goes.

The next addition and final pick of the official day 1 of the D2 Rookie draft is........
Brian Hill, RB for Atlanta

Hill went to the same high school as my wife (my rival high school), born and raised in the same city outside of St. Louis as us.

@TREFF

Burkhead for Joe Williams, Zay Jones, and Brian Hill

TBD..........

@Chef99 OTC

@SmokingMonkey you are at your limit and have to drop one for every pick from here on out

I'll drop Adam Humphries right now, caught a minnow and it's time to release him.
so now every one can fight over him

that gives me at least 1 more pick before I need to make a real decision.
