Is this a Crazy Thought?

Recommended Posts

9th pick, 12 team leauge, snake draft. I have this crazy idea of going R. Moss at 9 and coming back with Brady at 16. Non PPR league, 6pts/td. Believe me, I am not married to this or think it's very sound since it's a high risk/high reward move. If Brady throws 30 tds, you figure Moss is good for about half of those. Anyway, just throwing it our for feedback.

And if Brady gets hurt again? I'd rather get a stud RB in the 1st.

If it isnt your only league or a big money league, then why not take some chances? Sometimes winning a league is all about the person who was willing to take the risk. Im in 4 leagues and I take fantasy football pretty seriously, but it gets boring to draft the same way in every league. So by the time i get to the 3rd or 4th draft, I try to use some different strategies. If Brady throws for 35+ TD's, you'll probably end up near the top of ur league. Thats why I dont understand the bashing of Steven Jackson around these boards. He is a HUGE upside pick. If he gets hurt, your season may be over, BUT if he stays healthy, he may win you the championship. I like making high risk/high reward moves sometimes. Your right, its not really sound strategy, but its ur team, so do what you feel comfortable with.

a guy in one of my leagues plays this strategy. He usually finishes in the bottom half of the standings, but once every 5 years or so he wins it all.

 

So the strategy can work so long as you are selective about when & where to use it.
