2nd pick in12 team ppr (1 Viewer)

[nixie21]

is it insane to pick Antonio Brown instead of a rb at number 2?

 

[Godsbrother]

No. But I have the 3rd pick in a 12-team PPR and probably won't.

 

[Freelove]

No, and it is probably the best pick you can make.

why do you say that, just want to hear the reasoning so I can decide. thanks to you both

 

[Freelove]

Because of the number of players at each position, who I have in each tier of value, I recommend everybody on the planet go WR/WR from every draft slot, unless an absolutely ABSURD value presents itself (e.g., Adrian Peterson at 2.09).

No matter how many drafts I do or look over, the teams that pursue this strstegy for team-building invariably seem strongest to me post-draft, so long as they stock up on RB's in the next phase of the draft.

Doubly true in PPR.

 

[Freelove]

Note to add that I do NOT, necessarily, believe that Brown is the best value, or the best pick "in a vacuum."

I merely believe that beginning that way gives you the best chance to build the highest scoring team.

Do you follow this up with four RBs?

Bell for sure if you get lucky and he's there. No question on that. If he goes #1, then you have to make the tough decision. I think it's a total deadlock between Charles and Brown. Can't go wrong with either. AP/Lacy could be in the mix too, but I put them a TINY bit below Charles/Brown. Go for Brown if you think your league gets all over wrs fairly early.
