This year reminds me of the Priest Holmes days when you had only a few stud running backs and everybody else. I'm sitting with the number one pick in a draft and I'm not so much worried about who to take in round 1, but who to target on the returning 2/3 hook. I think those picks are the most important for this strategy. To me, ideally Graham or Gronk slides in there. Probably a pipe dream. Failing that, I'm hoping Brady or Brees slides in there. Not likely. So now you are getting to the nitty gritty. You can't bag these two picks up. Going off ADP, here is what is left. Assuming you took Foster/Rice/McCoy with that first pick, who do you like in that 24-30 range as a tandem to go with your stud RB?
DeMarco Murray Wes Welker Darren McFadden Adrian Peterson Jamaal Charles Trent Richardson Mike Wallace Steven Jackson A.J. GreenVictor CruzHakeem NicksRoddy WhiteMJD (Assuming he hasn't reported)Fred JacksonJulio JonesFrank Gore Brandon MarshallSteve SmithDarren Sproles Ahmad Bradshaw
Personally I was surprised to see Adrian has slid this far and I think he's the choice here. I also like Sproles in the third if you go with a Welker or Roddy here. In flex leagues, I'd probably go the Adrian then Sproles off that list.

leaving me foster. very happy about that. As far as rounds 2 and 3 go, I am going to take Stafford or Cam if there but I think they will be gone. Really thinking about taking the 2 top WR on the board. maybe a Fitz/Jennings/White and a Julio/AJ Green. Get a established stud to go with a young stud. Dont think I get another rb here....
