Would you be comfortable with this starting RB set?

[Brees#1]

Montee Ball
Shane Vereen

With Tre Mason as your number 3 who is waiting in the wings to overtake Stacy.

 

[TREFF]

No. Love Ball..Meh on Vareen, and your banking way way too much in simple coach speak to bank on Mason as a RB3. He's at best a #4 who could possibly be a RB3... same as each and every back up on every team. . More or less.

Whose the rest of your team???

And if mason is your only bench RB I hope it's a deep league with only a one man bench. Otherwise your draft was a failure. You can't do the no RB strategy without having RB depth.

Its not my fault they ranked all the good RBs in the first two rounds! So you believe Stacy will get 17-20 carries a game? However I will not get Stacy and Ball both. In a FFC draft Mason was one of the higher RBs available in round 8. Hyde was gone. I'm not sure what to think on the whole Lynch thing and Michael. Andre Williams is being jumped on. There's nothing I can do, I just have to accept 8-11 among RBs while getting 15-18 among my receivers. I suck drafting RBs.

And let me tell you no one, not even us, know who will emerge from the saints backfield. You can take the chance on Thomas but be informed that Cooks is filling the Sproles void.

Khiry Robinson baby!

....and no, I would not be comfortable with that.

 

[Barilko]

Why yes, yes I do....................very much so.

To answer your question though I'm with Milk: How is the rest of your team?

I'll say this much for Stacey, he didn't start/play in a game until week 5. So he only started/played in 12 games, yet was 67% of the Rams rushing attack for the entire season. To put that in perspective, DeMarco Murray was 70% of the Cowboy's rushing offense and played in 14 games. And Eddie Lacy was 71% of the Pack's rushing offense, and played in 15 games.

All the Tre Mason hype seems to be coming from everyone except the Rams organization. My feeling is that the Rams already have their starter - Stacey.

Well, then again if this was a 10 pt per reception league it might work out

This is why you can't draft an elite QB, a top TE and then reach for a defense too. RB depth is more important than those luxury items.

 

[Brees#1]

To answer your question though I'm with Milk: How is the rest of your team?

The rest of the mock was Rodgers at QB, Sanders/Cooks/Stills/Steve Smith/Latimer at WR, and JT/Rudolph at TE which was an accident drafting Rudolph not thinking I had JT. I would have got Wayne. Defense and PK don't matter.

 

[Brees#1]

In this more recent one I did Bell, Spiller, Vereen, and Ridley with Fitz, Cooks, Stills, Steve Smith, Jennings, and Boykin at WR and Rudolph at TE. This is also one of the tougher mocks at FFC.
