Current ADP has Andre Johnson at #6 overall. I love the guy, as he is very consistent, plays on a great offense, and isn't totally made of glass. However, I have a hard time taking a WR at #6 overall. Maybe it's just my old school, traditional thinking. I haven't taken the time to break down the ADP data like I usually do at this point, but at first glance it looks like you're going to be picking from guys like Pierre Thomas, Mathews, Charles or Grant (depending on how you rank them) for your RB1 in round 2.... and guys like Moreno, McCoy or Wells for your RB 2 in Rd3.
I would like this thread to discuss the risks/rewards of drafting a WR that early and taking a lesser RB in round 2 and 3.
Early thoughts
- it's not the RB1 that bothers me in Rd 2 as much as the guy I'd be left with as my RB2 in round 3 or 4....Wells, Moreno, Benson, McCoy.
- WRs seem to be flying off the board in Rd 2, but guys like Jennings, White, Rice, Marshall and D Jackson are frequently available.
- You seemed forced into taking a RB in RD2 and RD 3 if you go WR in RD 1. Whereas if you go RB Rd 1 you can go WR, RB and then pick up a top tier QB in Rd 4 (Romo or Schaub, perhaps).
Just an early look at it...trying to generate some thought on this. Proceed....
