I have the third pick in a brand new Dynasty League. NO PPR

Assuming LT and S. Jackson are picked ahead of me. Who would you want to build your team aound?

PTS 1pt every 10 rush/rec yds ---- 6pt rush/rec TDs

Larry Johnson 26 Lots of wear and tear

F. Gore 24 Injury Concerns & Fumble Problems

J. Addai 22 Is he going to carry all the balls

L. Maroney 24 Will he be an every down back

B. Westbrook 28 getting up in age and Injury Concerns

W. Parker 26 Is he good enough

R. Bush 22 Not a great inside runner

I have their ages posted

Who would you pick? And Why

I was leaning towards Addai because of his youth and team

 

[Block]

Not Addai if there is no PPR.

My decision would come down to LJ, Gore, and Parker. Would clearly be LJ if not for the holdout, and then would be Gore if not for the hand.

 

[new-guru]

Yeah ,

L. J. with his hold out is really concerning me.

 

[gianmarco]

First of all, LJ is not 26, he's going to be 28 in November. Secondly, definitely not Addai. Thirdly, may wanna move this to AC forum.

Manning

Trade?

 

[new-guru]

I could trade down to #6

would you?

 

[secretid]

The Chiefs are soooo old, their O-Line sucks, and their passing threat was non-existent last year. On top that LJ is 28. How does he still get love at the 3 spot for dynasty?

I could trade down to #6 would you?

What does the trade look like? #3 and ? for #6 and ?And yes, I would consider it. #6 is a good spot, and if you can move up in the 2nd and get another early pick you could have a very nice start to your draft.

It would be as simple as I would take all his draft picks starting at #6 in a 10 team serpentine draft and he would draft in my spot at #3 Therefor I would have 1.062.053.064.05 and ect.or keep the original at1.032.083.034.08 and ect.Thanks for all the help guys ]It sounds like there is no diffenant #3 guy in a Dynasty Draft is that What Everyone is Saying?

[EBF]

There are no bulletproof players at 1.03.

Gore has the best combination of talent, production, and youth, but we all know his injury history.

I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with Addai this high. And while I like Parker, is he really the 3rd pick?

Larry Johnson looks like a big risk to me. I'm avoiding him in all of my leagues.

I would probably trade down and try to pick up an extra top 50 draft pick or two. Unless you're getting Tomlinson, having great depth is more important than having one or two great players in a dynasty league.

EBFThanks for your AnalysisThat is exactly the info I was looking for.

 

[new-guru]

Will Bush be the main back in a year or two?

 

[kbleck]

I am in a 2 man keeper league and dunno how it relates to Dynasty but I had the #3 pick as well.

I traded my 1.3 for the 1.6 and moved up from 6.10 to 5.6. Although im kinda regretting this now.

Right now it looks like it will go LT, SJAX, SA, Gore, Bush according to my scouting reports

It is a .5 PPR league though.

So i may have to take LJ regardless.

 

[AnonymousBob]

I'd take Addai and be done with it. You're perhaps reaching a bit but after LT it's all up for grabs. Addai is young and will be a part of the Colts offense for the next several years. It's better to grab a player you want a bit too early rather than wait for "value" and end up with a player you're merely meh about.

 

[dudaman]

Since you talked yourself out of all those guys, go for broke and take Henry. Lots of upside in that ofense.

OK. Another thing, and just as important as your 1st round pick, how do you see the 2nd, 3rd or even 4th rounds? Will picking from #3 possibly eliminate the chance of getting someone you really want in the 2nd?Tier your rankings and see how it breaks down. If you stay at #3, but you really like the first 15 players a lot more than the next 5 or so after those 15, take the #6 spot and get two of your top 15 ranked players. See where the cutoffs are during the 2nd, 3rd and 4th round and see if that helps make it easier to decide what spot is better for you. Granted the draft will not go the same as your rankings, but it will give you an idea of worst case senario of what your team may look like after 4, or however many, rounds you want to tier for.

I think you are right on the money! I am going to the sixth pick hoping to get SA or Travis Henry, Portis, Jones Drew or MCgaheewith my second pick

 

[videoguy505]

Antonio Gates.

Or, whoever the guys in the ACF told me to. If only that forum was available.

 

[TitusIII]

Larry Johnson or J. Addai...good luck....I'd go with LJ, hopefully he doesn't lose his motivation once the Chiefs cave.

 

[ffwebster]

bush..

I like Addai and I'm high on Maroney as well. Both are young and will get at least 20 carries a game. Also, both are on high octane offenses and they should get a couple of pass rec td's. I like Addai because the defense can't just focus on the running game with Harrison and Wayne and he no longer has Rhodes. I like Maroney because Dillion with his 13 td's are gone and if Maroney gets half of those td's he can get 12 to 15 td's IMO.

most diffenantly.

 

[j3r3m3y]

Get a kicker early.

And use the right forum for "who do I draft?" posts.

Uh, which one, the penthouse forun.

 

[Ozymandias]

I found out too.

 

[cobalt_27]

Manning

This is the correct answer.

 

[Addai's Adidas]

Why is this smilie on the post? I thought maybe you were getting "hosed".

 

[eagles2007]

why not worry about getting the best player and not the best 'young' player? would you rather set yourself up to win the league in 3 years or win it this year and next and go from there? i'd take the latter. especially if there is money involved.
