Boy this is a deep draft. Several players I really like at this spot. I went Sanu, though I'm not entirely convinced... wish he'd ran a little bit faster at the combine, but I like what I've seen from him as a player.

 
I am going with Lamicheal James in the new NFL. I just see a better version of Darren Sproles and look at what he did this year. in PPR league, he is going to get a ton of catches. He also reminds me a little of Leshon MCcoy coming out and what I thought of him

I went Jeffrey with my choice, based largely on upside. At the end of Rd1 or early Rd2, swinging for the fence with upside seems like a reasonable approach to me. That said; I gave L James some real consideration. I agree with you, that in the right place he could really contribute. Plus, with all of the specialization at the RB position, he could really carve out a nice role for himself... and have value in FF.

Kinda like Dexter McCluster? They are very similar players and Dexter didnt do anything when given the opportunity.

McCluster was not the runner in college that Lamicheal James was. He had one season as a senior with over 1100 yards. He was more a ST and trick play guy. James has the ability to be a Running back as his time at Oregon proved. He rushed for almost as many yards in 4 years, this year alone. Could he bust. You bet but than anyone can bust. But I dont see the comparison other than maybe size and that is a 30 pound difference also. 165 to 195.

 
James- I agree with the Sproles comparisons. I dont think he is a McCluster clone at all. I think he is more in between McCoy and Sproles. Maybe not as dominant as McCoy but better than the San Diego Sproles.

My main concern with James is that he goes into a poor situation the way Sproles did. Talent-wise, he's a good pick at the end of the 1st but it's not such a great pick if you have to wait several years for fantasy production.
 
LaMike a bit undervalued, IMO. He's one of those guys who could really surprise at the next level. For the cost of a late 1st, definitely worth a punt here.

Also like Fleener in this range.

Not at all sold on the other options.

If they were flawless, they wouldn't be available at 1.12. I think it's great value considering (as well as the next 4 or 5 picks)

Yeah jeter normally takes these through two rounds
I'd be interested in at least going through the first 32 picks for those of us in 16 team leagues.
