Interesting Keeper Dilemma--EDITED I FORGOT SOMEONE PLEASE REVIST

[Bottles 0]

I'm in a 10 team league, and I drafted really well last year, so I've got some tough decisions regarding who to keep. In this league you are required to keep 2 players, and for whoever you keep from last year, you give up this year's draft pick for the round that player was drafted in (I think that is standard but not sure).

 

League scoring is a little screwy, 20 yards per point receiving/rushing, 50 yards/pt for passing, all TDs are 6, 0.5 ppr

 

This year I will have the 8th pick in the odd number rounds and 3rd pick in even number rounds (standard snake-style draft)

 

Here are the players I'm considering keeping, and the pick I'd have to give up. Please help me pick two.

 

1.8 RB, Larry Johnson

3.8 WR, Marvin Harrison --> probably not going to keep him

7.8 WR, TJ Housh

7.8 RB, Maurice Jones-Drew

9.8 QB, Marc Bulger

 

 

 

So basically I need to pick 2 of 3. Housh and Bulger were such great values, and LJ's holdout makes me a little nervous --the draft is in a few days. The only thing is many people will be keeping backs (LT, Gore, Westy and plenty of others I'm sure) so I'm nervous I'd have a RB1 like Travis Henry or something.

 

Let me know your thoughts please, and leave a link for yours if you want.

 

Thanks!

I would keep Housh and LJ, as down as i am on LJ, he is great value at the #8 spot, even more so after the keepers are gone, i bet you couldnt come close to getting a back of his caliber there.

 

 

Also dont fear the holdout, fear the 410 carries he had last year and the inexerienced QB he has this year, and the retirement of the 2 HoF lineman in each of the last 2 offseasons.

I agree. I would keep LJ and Whoyomama. The holdout is the least of LJ's worries. The oline and the inexperienced QB hit the nail on the head with this one, but after that its still too much value to pass up at 1.8.

 

Thanks for mine.

All have great value. I'm not big on LJ this year so it hard to say keep him. TJwho for sure as he is the best value of all of them. LJ is really your only choice as far as having a solid(?) RB, as in you need one here.

gotta go with LJ and Housh.

 

LJ is an elite back and, despite the huge amount of carries, should perform well as your RB1. I think this year marvin and housh should have similar numbers with the slight edge going to marvin. however, considering the picks you lose, you have to take housh.

I agree with the rest you have to go with LJ at 1.8... I don't see anyone passing on him in a draft if he is there with #8 pick. Housh is a MUST keep...

 

 

Good luck

I forgot I picked up MJD off waivers last year. Let me know if you think Jones Drew in the 7th should replace either LJ or Housh.

 

Thanks so much.

That makes it a little tougher... I think MJD is an obvious keeper for 7th rd so now the question is can you get a good RB at 1.8 to go with TJ and MJD... Depending on who you think is available I would keep LJ and MJD and try to get aWR in rd2.. Hope this helps but either way you go you should be in good shape... TJ and MJD or LJ and MJD

 

Good Luck

Thanks, I think I'm going to go with the 2 backs! I will be sure to post the final team next week.
