Interesting Draft Result 12 Team (1 Viewer)

[kerntuber]

I was looking through some mock drafts and I found one that was interesting where someone drafting out of the 7 spot, took back to back quarterbacks. I believe it was Rogers and Manning. The league awarded 6 pts per TD pass, so drafting a QB in the first isn't totally reaching, but I found it interesting that by locking two of the top QB's he had some pretty interesting trade bait depending on how the other team's drafted and it also started a run on QB's. The run on QB's then opened up some other options for him as he continued where he started three or four other runs as well. The draft had normal offense and IDPs. Although he ended up with two top QBs, top TE, top WR1 and 2, his running backs ended up being fairly weak, although he took several interesting fliers at the end to gamble with. Just curious if anyone else had run into someone that might have used this strategy or situation to their benefit in the past and what the results were. I would think that out of 12 teams you would have someone that struggles early with their QB and how easy it might be to bully them out of a productive running back early in the season.

picking guys in the 1st 5 rounds as trade bait only isn't a very good idea

I think your thread may get some more run if you posted the actual results, (i.e. 1.07 - Rodgers and so on).
