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.
