I posted this in another thread but thought it made sense here. I draft in the 12 spot but this strategy fits any late rounder:Heading into this year's draft, even with McFadden stashed as my keeper, I found myself going back to the typical RB/WR heavy strategy, and grabbing a QB late. But now I'm thinking maybe the Top 3 position player strategy is the way to go for the second year in a row. I'll grab consistency early then hope to hit homeruns with a few mid-round gems.But I am actually pick 12 this year and with the big gap between picks, it's gonna be a bit tougher to pull this off. I'm definitely thinking about it, especially since I am keeping McFadden, who has gotta pan out better than Greene did last year. At 12/13, here's what I'm figuring - Calvin(top 3 WR) or Nicks (def top 5) then Rodgers/Brady (top 3 QBs). At 36/37, my mocks show that I can likely snag someone like Welker or BMarsh (he'll find the endzone this year) or even Witten (top 3 TE) and then grab another RB like Blount or DeAngelo or Lynch or Ingram.I don't hate that roster. I don't hate that roster at all. Brady, McFadden/DeAngelo, Nicks/Welker, Witten...solid. The conventional wisdom in a 4pt passing league is to wait on QB, but I find QBs are a big headache - going QBBC is a recipe for bad luck (always make the wrong call!) - and it's very comforting to have a sure thing throwing for 250+, 2+ TDs every week. Consistency at every position is nice, and I think by targeting a Top 3-5 player (give or take, but it doesn't really work if you reach too hard) at each position, you can get it.What do you think?
