Official drafting from the 8th spot in a 12 team league thread (1 Viewer)

Assuming the top 6 RB are gone (Charles, McCoy, Peterson, Forte, Lynch, Lacy) and Calvin is gone, who are you taking? Does Ball belong in the discussion? What about Peyton? After the top 6 RB, seems like a big drop off to me.

Scoring format?

I wouldn't touch any of the other RB's at that point, PPR or not. Wouldn't even consider QB. For me it would probably come down to Jimmy/Dez/Demaryius

After 15 years in this game I've learned that it doesn't mater what spot you are drafting out of. The game plan needs to be the same.

Draft the best/most explosive/proven players available for the first 4 rounds and then address positional needs after that. You want to take as many proven absolute studs as possible that are available before addressing positional needs

Be like wata. Every draft is different.

I have one money league with the the 8th/12 pick, standard scoring, typical flex style lineup (QB, 2RB, 2WR, Flex TE, DEF, K)

I have Demaryius Thomas penciled in. Most likely the 7 you listed will be the 7 that are taken, I think. I'd love to see Calvin there but I'm not that lucky. I am still considering Graham if he is there.

And probably a WR on the other side of the turn. There aren't any proven RB's with a great situation available there, I'd rather take a couple of elite proven stud WR's
