Plus if you're stacked at rb, you can always make a trade. And I have no interest at all in a TE. I'll take the 12th rated one again this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would thing that if you are not getting one by the start of the 5th round then you may find yourself in a bit of a hole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

famousb 11 Posted April 21, 2011 bluff :cough: bluff :cough: you know you love the running backs also. How else can you be a back to back champ dood. in this league, it's never worth drafting an RB in the 1st 2 rounds... look at the top2 RBs last year - Foster and Hillis. Were either of those guys even drafted??? just goes to show, they are no sure things and you are better off taking the safe bet of QB or WR... plus i always love drafting the top TE. Gates was killing this league before he got hurt, he would have easily outscored most RBs, making him a solid 3rd round pick... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Moz 69 Posted April 21, 2011 I can say famous is the worst rafter but so far the best ww getter and making key trades at the right times. Delay maybe last year was an abberation. as for me I draft best available and try an fill in from there -- it's a QB heavy league but they can be had late. This year will be tough as their is so many good players NOOONE is going to fall -- in that situation drafting VBD is only way to go to win. This is going to be like a WSOFF draft in terms of skill level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let's review last years draft from Moz and the #1 pick overall - - I think I recall this correctly... Moz kept nobody and had the #1 pick. The obvious choice was Gore, but Moz took Rodgers Did Moz make the playoffs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hellothere 1 Posted May 3, 2011 Hey Megla, still doing the IBL? I skipped all the replies, so this may be an echo but... I really feel WR is WAY undervalued by a lot of members in this league. There is usually at least one, if not a few guys who take their 4th RB before their 2nd WR....yikes. The 'problem' as I see it, is if not enough of the teams are enforcing value...it doesnt matter. A lot of guys draft RB galore, but most teams are forced to start a 4th WR at least once, if not multiple times a year (while not designed to.) Some serious value in WR traditionally, check out old drafts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

famousb 11 Posted May 3, 2011 I'm not saying you can't find RB gems late, but you can also find decent WR talent late too - and there league tendency is RB heavy, which puts a premium on them in the draft IMO.
