Draft Strategy: who's your flex?

Recommended Posts

If you are in a 10 team league, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex starting... who would you start at flex? Say your first to picks are, MJD and Ronnie Brown, and then it comes back around to you and you can get Ryan Grant, or Pierre Thomas (or another solid, established fantasy starter... do you get that RB over a top 1-2 tier WR? you can then start 3 stud RB and have insurance at the RB position if one should go down. However, then, you're starting out at a late disadvantage in WR selection.

 

I was in a 12 team league where I got MJD, then Grant, then Brown because he was there and I was filling the flex position (PPR league). I then had to wait to select my both my starting WRs, my QB and my TE. I ended up getting Desean Jackson (who is a decent but not great #1 with potential) and then Coles as my WR 2 with Hester on the bench. I also ended up with Romo and Olsen. The uncertainty at the WR position is there, but there is always the opportunity to draft some late WR with potential. I will note that I did take Ray Rice late which allows me to move him or Ronnie Brown if I deced to upgrade at WR.

 

Anyway, I have 2 drafts coming up this weekend, so I'm interested in your thoughts. Thank you.
