if you know you want 3 players, but not sure on the rest, yes it is.Parker @ #8 seems early, I would have taken Rudi ahead of Fitz, but the rest of the 1st seems about good enough.Peyton @ 14 is good value. Just noticed that's the same guy with SJax. and he doesn't lose picks until 7/8? How'd he manage that?
I believe 46.01 is the first rookie pick - currently held by Carlos Rodrigues...

Carlos Rodrigues Waiting On Carlos Rodrigues For The Next Pick
That would be me, Mr Peterson
.5 PPR for RB.If Portis had fallen much farther than 7 I would have considered making a move up to snag him.Rudi should have went around 10 or 11.
1 PPR for WRstart 3 WR in a 16 team leaguestart 1 RB and 1 RB/TE (TE gets 1.5 PPR, RB gets .5 PPR)
I'd still take Portis, Parker and Alexander over him, but that's just me.I don't expect Portis' stock to rise much before the actual start of the season. Unless something happens to Ladell, or he gets traded, which I highly doubt.Whose Derek Tonn on here?
NICE!!!!That would be me, Mr Peterson
datonn
No.
With this, if you believe a WR will outscore the RB, and you like a RB you'd get later, it sometimes does. I wouldn't have taken Fitz here, but I understand the thinking.
what?
Brandon Jacobs, the overhyped heir to the RB position in NY.Dunno if I would've taken CJ and/or Gates over Chester Taylor. His numbers could improve a greal deal with better line and QB play.
I thought you were talking about players you'd take ahead of Caddy. Omar and Taylor are studs...Brandon Jacobs shouldn't be in the top 3 rounds in this league.
Just wait 'til Martz makes him a blocking TE.
I never said he was a bad pick. I just stated that I thought it was interesting to see him get picked over some of the players I listed.Jacobs will probably end up a 4th or 5th round pick anyway. Should go anywhere near the first 2, 3 rounds.
I'm very curious to see the result of this strategy. I'm in a 1 player keeper league (forfeit 1st rd pick) and my keeper is Portis, so I won't have a 1st rd pick. We do allow trading so I'm contemplating trading out of the 2nd rd to get additional picks in rd 3, 4 and or 5.for those interested, i'm brian smith (commish)my strategy so far has been to build a bank of picks in the 40-55 pick range (currently sitting on 21, 36, 44, 45, 50, 53 and 1.02r) this should be a zone that ends the teirs on some top talent at each position (other than rb,)....to get as many picks in the window i wanted, i traded out of the 1.12 to gain an extra early pick and didn't mind doing so because i didn't want to feel obligated to reach for an rb that i don't feel will give me an edge (outside of the top 3-5 picks, i dont see much differnce between rb5 and say rb15, so i'll take rb15 (pick21) and be content)....
unpossibleJust wait 'til Martz makes him a blocking TE.

You and I are both going to be watching the SD coaching situation with interest given that our top picks are each from that team.
More like mindboggling, considering it's very likely to miss at least half the season. But kudoos for being gutsy lol. Whose the owner of that team?
nuggs
For those of us following along, could I propose that you include the FBG username somehow in the MFL team name so it is easier to tie everything together?
Good idea, I think we need to incorporate that somehow...Im in the league, and I am confused as to who is who stillComfortably numb=Carlos Rodrigues
I liek that one too, I will do that as well.
In a PPR dynasty, Fitz is a lot more valuable than either of those guys.
They're both a stretch, IMO. Their draft position is based on projected value as opposed to actual value. That's dangerous.
What's also interesting is that after 2.14, he doesn't have another pick until 6.14.wow, Marc Faletti has Smith, Fitz, and Holt at WR already. VERY impressive. Of course, your RBs could end up pretty thin. You need to find last year's Gore.
He is going to need to trade one of those guys. You cant live with a 6th round RB as a feature back, ppr or not. Does he have a top 2 rookie pick (AP or ML) could be where he is going.What's also interesting is that after 2.14, he doesn't have another pick until 6.14.wow, Marc Faletti has Smith, Fitz, and Holt at WR already.

Only having to start 1 RB, this could be a very good plan.wow, Marc Faletti has Smith, Fitz, and Holt at WR already. VERY impressive. Of course, your RBs could end up pretty thin. You need to find last year's Gore.
The problem is that everyone's aiming for next year's Gore.Only having to start 1 RB, this could be a very good plan.wow, Marc Faletti has Smith, Fitz, and Holt at WR already. VERY impressive. Of course, your RBs could end up pretty thin. You need to find last year's Gore.
I would absolutely take Larry Fitzgerald over Rudi Johnson & Chester Taylor in a dynasty PPR. And there are at least a handful more WRs and/or QBs I'd take over Chester Taylor. Edit to add: in addition to DeAngelo Williams, who I would have taken well ahead of Chester Taylor.I resemble that remark. In case it helps for the guys following the draft, my strategy is simply this: BEST PLAYER AVAILABLE. I had a "crush" on Maroney at 1.12, but when he went at 1.11, I couldn't decide between Rudi Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald. I REALLY couldn't decide who I liked better.
I subsequently tried to see if I could find a deal down a few spots, and Will cut a deal with me to move me back to 1.16. I figured I had a good shot at LFitz or Johnson falling there....though I assumed it would be LFitz. To wake up this morning and see that I, in fact, landed Rudi, I was ECSTATIC! He probably should have been drafted around 1.09-1.11...so to still be there at 1.16, AND get a bump from the 4th and 5th rounds?! Now we'll see who's left for me at 3.16, then my SERIOUS run of picks begins....... 
Slowly trading my way out of the first 2 rookie rounds to trade up in the vet...I tried for about 2hrs straight last night to get Peyton starting with talking to the 1.09 owner and finally striking a deal at 1.14. I think Peyton was the best value over any of the RBs left and all of the WRs...
I like it...
