Our big money league is very competitive. No guppies. 15+ years playing for a 6K+ pot. Maybe because it's a 6point TD league for all we've never followed the stud RB theory as closely as some others others. Sure, the top guys always go in round 1 but top QB's get picked up and there is always a big run in rounds 2 and 3 to nab top WR's. You could always find some depth in rounds 3-5 as guys went after other positions.
Not this year.
HUGE run on RB's.
11 of the 12 picks in the first round:
ADP
Martin
Charles
McCoy
Foster
Spiller
Rice
Calvin
Richardson
Lynch
Morris
Forte
I somewhat expected that, but what I didn't expect was the huge run continuing. SJax at 2.03, CJ at 2.04 - and the kicker - GORE at 2.06. That pick really shifted the draft into a frenzy. Ridley then went 2.08 and MJD 2.11. So when Murray went 3.01, Reggie Bush, 3.04, David Wilson 3.05 there was really nothing after that. Lacy went 3.12. D. Richardson went 4.01, McFadden 4.2, Sproles 4.5, Mathews 4.6, L. Miller 4.10, etc. Bernard from Cincy went 5.1!!!
Never seen anything like it in our league. Guys were hoarding 3 in the their first 3 picks. It was like a RB hurricane warning was announced and the owners raided the convenience and hardware stores to stock up on any living, breathing RB.
