I am in a league where we are allowed to keep up to 2 players. We can only keep players that were drafted the previous season. And we can not keep anyone drafted in the first three rounds. The kept player is the draft pick that they were the previous season. For an example I drafted Ridley in the 4th round last season. If I am to keep him he will be my 4th round pick this season.
It's a 10 team league!!!

Should i keep Ridley??? He is the only player on my team worth keeping.

We start 2 RBs no flex and we do .5 ppr

Yes, you should keep him. He's a 3rd round pick in most drafts. Also, if you pick early in the 4th, make sure you swing a deal to get value in other rounds while trading down in the 4th. A 4th rounder is a 4th rounder.

The 4th is about where I'd take him, but I have him down at about the 20th-best RB so I'm not as high on him this year as others are. I wouldn't take him at pick 31; maybe at pick 40, but I wouldn't keep him and cost myself options.

The keeper value is minimal. And it also handcuffs me during the draft. Because with a RB in the 4th round that pretty much means my first 3 have to be RB WR WR. As it is a ppr league. Although as it is a 10 team league I can wait for qb.

if you are at the or near the end of round 4 maybe keep him but i would not

Yes, you should keep him. He's a 3rd round pick in most drafts. Also, if you pick early in the 4th, make sure you swing a deal to get value in other rounds while trading down in the 4th. A 4th rounder is a 4th rounder.

as for the back latter part of the quote above from "Money" make a deal and move back in round 4 if you do keep him




Wil stated

I second Wil it limits your options

you do not know how the draft will play out ..you may find that when you get to round 4 that you need a Wr instead but if you keep Ridley you wont have the choice

also if you let him walk he may yet be still available when you pick in the 4th thus you can decide then

one last thing i also do not expect Ridley to be a ppr vulture..

Good luck with the decision

You aren't giving us much of an option... nobody? Sure you aren't overlooking someone really late? I really like Ridley this year, but a 10-team, .5 PPR drops him just a little for me. 4th round is still good value for him, but none of us can be accurate without knowing the options...

Maybe Blair Walsh or Greg Zuerlien that you picked up off waivers can be kept for the last pick? ;) gotta be someone worth a late round flier that can be kept, isn't there?

Yes, nobody else on my team would even be a questionable keeper. I don't need to keep anyone, and apparently I am getting mixed answers. I am leaning towards no keepers.

If it were my team I'd keep Ridley, but it's because I think he can be much better than he has been. I don't always think correctly. So the safe, sound advice would be to agree with most the others and say that if your not %100 comfortable with it, you should probably toss him back in and see what else you can catch.
