Keeper League Question

[Stillers_Fan 0]

My Keepers in a 12-team league:

 

C Portis, C Chambers, S Moss, and A Gates. Keepers go in the first four rounds. I have the 5.3, 6.10, 7.3, 8.10, 9.3 as my first five picks.

 

I'm shopping around Chambers and Moss to get a #2 RB. The only quality RBs going back into the draft are T Bell, Westbrook, Dunn, and C Taylor. The SA owner has expressed his willingness in trading away SA to move up in the draft (he is currently drafting 5.9). The RBs I am targetting are Rudi, S Jackson, J Lewis, L Jordan, R Brown, or SA like I mentioned before. I know I'll have to include draft picks with any deal I make to acquire one of those RBs.

 

Owner's keepers with mentioned RBs I'm targetting:

 

Owner #1 - D Foster, R Brown, C Johnson, M Harrison - I'm sure I'll have to deal Gates with any hope of acquiring Brown since he is already deep at WR.

Owner #2 - Plummer, Droughns, J Lewis - This owner is 3 picks behind me so I'm sure he's going to target R Moss or T Holt with his 6th pick, but I'm hoping he'll be more comfortable with guaranteed WR before he picks.

Owner #3 - SA, Brady, D Driver, TO

Owner #4 - Edge, Rudi, S Jackson, C Palmer - He is absolutely stacked at RB, but when I talked with him he wants some high picks because he loves his RBs.

Owner #5 - Eli, Tiki, Burress, L Jordan

 

Notable players going back into the draft by position in no particular order:

 

RB

Bell, Deuce, M Barber, F Taylor, Westbrook, Dunn, C Taylor, Addai

 

WR

A Johnson, J Horn, Roy Williams, J Galloway, D Branch, R Wayne, T Holt, J Smith, R Moss, Housh

 

QB

Plummer, Big Ben, McNabb, Hasselbeck, Culpepper

 

The reason I'm willing to part with S Moss or Chambers is because I can get R Moss or Holt with my 5.3 pick and looking to pick up Branch, Galloway, Housh, or Wayne with my 6.10 pick. And I'll be looking to address my QB position with the 7.3 pick.

 

My question is, in my situation who would you look to deal and what draft picks would you use to acquire which player? Or would you go ahead and draft one of the notable RBs I mentioned above?

 

Another quick question: Have any of you had any experience with ESPN's keeper league system? This is my first year using it and I'm not sure if I were to only keep three players if I would draft in one of the fourth rounds since I would only be keeping three.

I am a little confused by what you mean by the draft picks like 5.9 etc.

 

But I would prefer to have Chris Chambers rather than Randy Moss and maybe even Holt. Granted Holt is a consistent stud, but he is 30 whereas Chambers is only 28.

 

I think Randy Moss got his big paycheck and is a bust. I just dont see him ever repeating his numbers from when he was with the Vikes.

 

You don't want to give up Gates because he gives you an edge at that position over everyone else.

 

Why not package your players and move up to take one of the rookie RBs as your next keeper?

 

Please take the time to post your opinion on my full keeper / dynasty draft question topic.

 

Thanks.
