epinindy 0 Posted August 7, 2006 Can you guys give me some arguments as to who is the best #1 pick and why. I traded up to number one as I wanted one of the top 3 and have been leaning toward Alexander, but I have watched many mocks in which LJ and LT have went in front of him. Is there a clearcut #1 and in which order do you rank the 3? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sportscleve14 0 Posted August 7, 2006 I think Alexander is. Alexander doesn't have another great RB behind him to take carries away. LJ lost Roaf. LT has Rivers starting at QB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manola 0 Posted August 7, 2006 I'd personally take LJ #1. I think he can put up incredible numbers this year, based off of what he did last year. He may suffer a little due to the coaching loss and the loss of Roaf, but I still think he can be huge. Also, I know you can't predict injuries and I don't wish them on anyone, but I think LT and SA may be a little more likely do get injured just because of all the extra wear they've had over the years. A younger guy seems less likely to get injured. Of course, this is just trying to predict the unpredictable so take it for what it's worth.

brya31 0 Posted August 8, 2006 If I am not mistaken, Shawn Alexander lost an all pro lineman in front of him also??? So, with all things considered I would still take Larry Johnson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gator-raiders 0 Posted August 8, 2006 If you are not a keeper league, then I would go with Alexander. He is a TD machine. If you were a keeper league, I would go with LJ. I think you cannot go wrong with either. And I would rate them almost equal and ahead of LT. Please take the time to post your opinion on my full keeper / dynasty draft question topic. Thanks.

enoto 0 Posted August 8, 2006 I don't think Rivers is THAT big of a factor, He still has GAtes for def.'s to cover and LT is so versitile...he runs, catches AND throws to keep def.'s a little more honest at least. Not saying take him at 1, but I have all 3 pretty equal and hoping LT fall to 3 in mine so I get him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
