Thanks JeffWould you take Jacobs in the order that he is listed ahead of the others like Turner, Stewart, Brown etc. even though word now he might likely be in a RB by comittee? Or would you take someone that I have listed below him before you take Jacobs?Thanks again.

Jacobs was awesome last year when healthy. He will get the goalline carries and should be a strong RB2/3. Turner and the others below him will also share carries.

Starting lineup 1QB, 2 RB's, 3 WR's, 1 TE, 1 Flex(RB, WR, or TE)

My keepers.

Hasselbeck, R. Brown, J. Addai, J. Lewis, R. Moss, S. Smith, Cotch.

I have the 1.02 pick in the 2008 draft plus I will have 2 1st & 2 2nd round picks in 2009.

His Keepers

T. Romo, M. Barber, LJ, F. Gore, J. Walker, M. Colston, C. Cooley.

Would you trade S. Smith and a 2009 1st round pick(towards the end) for Colston?

Another trade in this league would you trade Hasselbeck for Culter and his 2.10.

Would you trade S. Smith and a 2009 1st round pick(towards the end) for Colston? No way. I would keep Smith and just start another WR that week. I know that is not desirable, but Smith and Colston are close. I would look to trade Smith only after he comes back and has a great game, assuming Delhomme is still healthy and playing well. Keep your picks. They will have you as favorite next year.

Another trade in this league would you trade Hasselbeck for Culter and his 2.10. Yes, I would do that deal, and I would target another QB with a 2nd or 3rd or even later, depending on how the draft is going. The QBs I like are young guys like Rodgers or Schaub, esp Rodgers. I think this Favre mess only makes Rodgers a better value. Rodgers, Schaub, and Derek Anderson are great values. The way I see it, you could get two young QBs for the price of an aging QB that will not be able to duplicate his 2007 numbers.

Jeff,

I have the fourth pick in our rookie draft on Saturday.

I'm assuming that Stewart, McFadden, and Mendenhall will be off the board.

That leaves me with the popular choices of Forte and Smith. I'm also considering Chris Johnson. He's been getting rave reviews so far out of camp and I just don't see Lendale as the answer in Titanland.

Forte and Smith are in better situations, but the line in Detroit is woeful and I still have a feeling that Forte is not the best option long term.

Who would you go with?

We play a auction/keeper format with salaries increasing 50% each year.

.5 ppr

1 pt per 20 yds (combined rushing and receiving)

4pts per TD

Thanks

I realize that I am one of a very few that am not a believer in Smith or Forte. I think Detroit drafts a RB next year. I really like Chris Johnson, especially getting points for receptions. Johnson is a playmaker and should be the biggest weapon on the Titans. I do expect Forte to lead all rookies in carries so he is the safer play.

Hi Jeff.

I'm in a dynasty 1qb/2rb/3wr/1te/1pk/1def 12 team 25 man roster No PPR 6TD 1pt/10 yds

I get

2nd round pick 2009

I give

Crumpler (usually decent)

Mason (old but still productive)

Foster (cuff to Gore)

These are depth guys for me. Everything in me says to take this deal. 1% of me says giving up 3 guys for what will likely be the 2.08-2.12 and never amount to anything seems silly.

I'd still be left with:

Lendale/Chester Taylor/other crap

Fitz/Calvin/Jennings/Cotchery/ rookies and other

Scheffler

Thoughts?

I would keep the veterans. I see Alge and Mason as worth close to that pick. Keep the proven veterans, at least until injuries start happening ... then these depth guys will be worth more.

Hi Jeff,

I think alot of people are thinking about Steve Smith and Bradon Marshall's suspensions.

As you may see in this post http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index...p;#entry9000144 I'm actually on the clock and am thinking of taking them both. While my league format may be a little different to some, and reduces the risk of doing this, it may be something that others are discussing. At the very least, both players ADP have fallen substancially.

I'd be interested to know your thoughts about my particular scenario and also in the broader view of more common draft formats.

Thanks

Hey Jeff,

Ok, so this is a 12 team H2H Keeper league. We can keep 3 players for a max of 3 years. We also have a rookie taxi squad(draft has already occurred).

The draft is a 20 round auction draft. The team salary is $200.

We start:

1 QB

2 RB

4 WR(TE and WR)

1 K

1 DEF

Pretty basic scoring:

1 point per 10 yards Rush/Receiving

1 point per 25 yards Passing

6 points per Rush/Receiving TD

6 points per Passing TD

-2 per fumble

K and DEF is basic scoring but for ST the individual player gets the points for a TD, fumble recovery...

This is my first Auction Keeper and only my second FF league. Just asking about a strategy. I used the VBD applicatoin from the site and plugged in my leagues settings and got some auction values. I have also used the value list players from the article, "the perfect draft".

Just wondering who you would target for value as my RB1 and WR1. I think I am going to go cheap on QB with someone like Cutler or Garrard with someone like Delhomme or Campbell/Young as my backup.

I am thinking I can get someone like Smith or Marshall for a little cheaper now, who would you rather.I would have to back them up with Hackett or someone for the first few weeks. Also, how important is it that I get a good RB2. At first I was thinking I may be able to get both Lynch and Jones-Drew but I wouldn't have much left for WR.

Although because this league favors WR slightly, RB may go a bit cheaper.

Who would you target as a good number 2 WR? I like Cotchery, but his value just took an increase.

Just looking for some advice on how to budget my team. First time again with anbAuction keeper....Thanks

Auctions are a different breed. I think I would look at tiers within positions. Here is the thinking, if you wait on QB1, you probably have several valued close together. Then you should be able to know when you are getting close to the end of the tier. There is no need being at the top of the tier unless someone is cheap. I like the thought of waiting on QB1, but I think you have to get a higher caliber of QB2 than normal. I would target Schaub, Garrard, or Vince Young as QB2. If you miss out on them, then go for a Delhomme or Campbell. But, a better QB2 minimizes any downside of having a lower QB1.I would look to lock up a strong RB1 and two strong WRs. This will allow you to play committees if need be. The thinking is that if you get a backfield of Lynch, then guys like Edge, Chester, and Fred Taylor, you would be able to play the hot hand at a much cheaper price. This is just an example, and I doubt you could get all of them on the cheap, but you get the idea. On the WRs, I would shoot for a top 10 player like Wayne. If you miss out, do not worry. That next tier is huge. There is little difference between Holt, Plax, Welker, Boldin, and many others. Just take two of these ... the two cheapest if possible. For WR3, I would target the older guys like Driver, Galloway, etc. The older WRs is where the value is. Let me know if you have any questions. Also, Jeff Pasquino is very good with auctions and he could probably help, too.

Hey Jeff,

In a 12 team 1/10, 1/25 all TD's= 6, no PPR league, the following trade has been proposed to me:

Randy Moss, Jon Kitna and Ryan Grant for Marques Colston, Peyton Manning and Michael Turner

My team:

Bulger/Kitna

Lynch, Grant, Young and T. Jones

Moss, Boldin, Bowe, Holmes

Crumpler, McMichael

What do you think? Do I really need Peyton? He is certainly an upgrade over what I have, but I feel like I am pretty solid right now, but the deal doesn't really seem to weaken me much--how much do I lose going from Moss to Colston and from Grant to Turner?

Thanks for your input!!!

I would pass on this deal and address QB in a cheaper manner. Guys I would target are Eli or Garrard as low end QB1s. Or, I like the idea of going cheaper and trying to get a Delhomme, Campbell, or Rodgers. If you cannot pull of a deal, I would target Warner, JT O'Sullivan or Matt Moore on the waiver wire just for the chance at upside.

Thanks Jeff. If McGahee falls and is available would you take him as an RB2 before all of these listed RB's even though he recently had surgery and may not be available for week 1 or more? Also you really think that Parker would be a good RB2 and not get a lot of steals both yardage wise and TD wise from Mendy? Of the top 3 you listed I know that Parker will be available for me to take. So you would take him over McFadden??Thanks again.......

Willis over any of those. FWP vs McFadden. Here is my thinking (which you can feel free to agree or disagree)ittsburgh should run more than OaklandParker is entrenched as starter and Mendenhall has to earn what he getsMcFadden will be splitting the carries with Fargas AND BushParker splits a bigger pie with one fewer backI know it sounds crazy. Oakland ran the ball well last year with Fargas and Jordan. They are a good running team. If we are looking at who might be better in 2009 and beyond, easily McFadden. Who will have the better 2008? I think FWP bounces back.

Hey Jeff

If available I will be looking at taking one of those 3 RB's (Jacobs, Turner, Parker) you suggested as my RB#2 with my 1.11 pick to compliment my keeper RB#1 Lynch.

The only problem with Parker that I just realized as I am writing this is that he has the same bye week as Lynch. Who else would you suggest I look to if Jacobs and Turner are gone?

Or would you still take Parker even though than that both my top 2 RB's would be on the same bye week meaning I would have to depend on my RB3 and RB4 (which won't be great or even one of them may not be a starter)?

My second question is with my 2.04 pick I plan on taking a WR. A player in my league today just dropped his keeper WR Smith because of suspension/concussion issues. The way I see it that at my 2.04 turn the WR's that may be available are:

1. Smith

2. Marshall

3. Holmes

4. Johnson

5. Williams

6. Bowe

7. White

8. Jennings

Who would you target? Would you take Smith/Marshall as my WR#1 with their 2 game suspension and medical issues over the others?

Thanks....

Lets assume you take Smith in 2nd, Coles in 5th, and Driver in 6th. Finding a decent WR for first two weeks is not a big deal. If nothing else, just take Muhsin Muhammad. I basically think MM for first two games and DD for rest is far greater than Jennings, Holmes or others listed.

I am thinking that I should take the trade since he drafted Bulger about were my my 2nd round pick will be and Jennings would have went in the 1st round of the draft. I drafted Favre with the last pick in the draft.

Sorry just confused on the WR#1.....So would you still take Smith or Marshall as my WR#1 over the others listed above even though both miss games and have medical issues?Thanks and sorry about my confusion. Just have read a lot over the last hour and sleep is setting in.

Lets assume you take Smith in 2nd, Coles in 5th, and Driver in 6th. Finding a decent WR for first two weeks is not a big deal. If nothing else, just take Muhsin Muhammad. I basically think MM for first two games and DD for rest is far greater than Jennings, Holmes or others listed.

Hi JeffThanks for all your input. I agree with you re: above taking either Smith or Marshall as my WR1 even with their suspensions. My draft is next week. Heard an update today with respect to some of the possible RB's being taken before my 1.11 pick. Looks like I may be sol on getting either Turner or Jacobs with my 1.11 pick to use as a RB2.To summarize things we all have 2 keepers from last year. My 2 keepers are Romo and Lynch. We are not a ppr league. Our scoring is TD=6 and 1 pt for every 10 yards running, passing and receiving. We pick 3 QB's start 1, pick 4 RB's and start 2, pick 6 WR and start 3, pick 2 TE and start 1, pick 2 kickers and start 1 and pick 1 team defence. Our draft is usually RB heavy. Therefore with my 1.11 pick I plan on taking an RB to fill my RB#2 spot. The RB's that look now to be available at my turn are:1. McFadden2. Graham3. Brown4. E. James5. Parker6. White7. T. Jones8. Forte9. Young10. Stewart11. SmithI know you ranked Jacobs, Turner, Parker to be your top 3 RB2's out of that group however 2 out of the 3 will be gone and one is on my RB1 bye week (Parker). You previously ranked the rest as follows:These are decent RB2s2. McFadden5. E. James3. Graham4. Brown9. T. Jones11. YoungHard to get a gauge on these guys and would want as RB3 or later8. White10. Forte12. Stewart13. Smith1. Would you still rank the above the same way?2. Besides McFadden would you take any other rookies earlier than the group of 6 above? 3. And once again you would still take McGahee if he falls to the above group even with his injury and ? mark status for week 1 and with Ray Rice lurking?Sorry for being long winded.....Thanks

Hey JeffIf available I will be looking at taking one of those 3 RB's (Jacobs, Turner, Parker) you suggested as my RB#2 with my 1.11 pick to compliment my keeper RB#1 Lynch. The only problem with Parker that I just realized as I am writing this is that he has the same bye week as Lynch. Who else would you suggest I look to if Jacobs and Turner are gone?Or would you still take Parker even though than that both my top 2 RB's would be on the same bye week meaning I would have to depend on my RB3 and RB4 (which won't be great or even one of them may not be a starter)?My second question is with my 2.04 pick I plan on taking a WR. A player in my league today just dropped his keeper WR Smith because of suspension/concussion issues. The way I see it that at my 2.04 turn the WR's that may be available are:1. Smith2. Marshall3. Holmes4. Johnson5. Williams6. Bowe7. White8. JenningsWho would you target? Would you take Smith/Marshall as my WR#1 with their 2 game suspension and medical issues over the others? Thanks....

If Jacobs or Turner is gone, then take a WR. I would target Smith as top choice. I think he or Marshall will be available. 1. Smith2. Marshall3. Holmes8. Jennings6. Bowe7. White4. Johnson5. Williams

If this is the case, I would take the best RB or WR. If there are no RBs you like, then take the best WR on the table. Yes, I would take Willis at 1.11 if there. Most of the RBs that are on the list will be available in the 2nd for you if you take a top WR in the 1st.

Deal is done but I change the 2nd rounder for my other 2nd which should be lower then the one he wanted.Would you trade Jenning and Cotch for either B. Edwards or AJ. Both teams only have one other startable WR. Or would that be way to much to give up for either of those WR's. I was thinking more on my 7 keepers for next year but I guess I could always drop my QB.

Have another trade in this league E. Manning, T. Holt & his 2009 1st which would be in the middle to top for Hasselbeck, S. Smith(Car) and my 2009 2nd which will be near the top.I countered with E. Manning & Fitz for Hass, S. Smith and my 2nd round pick which he turned down and told me it was to much but I told him I have the WR's now to deal with Smith missing 2 games and Engram missing 3 games.So what do you think.

I think I would pass on his offer. The QBs probably cancel out leaving Holt and a 1st for Smith and a 2nd. Even though I love picks, I would choose to keep Smith. He is younger and has no long term health problems

14 team dynasty league, standard scoring no PPR, starting lineup 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR, 1 TE, 3 Flex(RB, WR or TE).

My roster

QB's McNabb, Garcia, Croyle

RB's McGahee, S. Jackson, Portis, Irons

WR's Wayne, Bowe, J. Walker, Galloway, Stokley

TE's Winslow, V. Davis

I do not have a 1st round pick this year but have 2.03 & 2.08 picks this year.

I was offered a 1.03 and 2.11 for S. Jackson. His 1st offer was R. Bush, 2.09 & 2.10 for S. Jackson.

Bush is his only RB and only has Romo and Fitz that I would be interested in. He has been trying to trade for S. Jackson for about a month now. I know what I think of the trade and would like to know what you think of it since everytime I reject his trade he does not understand why I will not accept any of the trades.

I might just offer him S.Jackson, D. McNabb, 2.03 & 2.08 for Romo, Fitz and 1.03 to see what is does.

To be honest, it would take a lot more than either for me to move Steven Jackson. His offers are what you would get for Larry Johnson and there is a huge difference in the two for me. You might some RB rankings on another site LMAO) and show him where the differences are. No one I know of would have those offers as close. To put it this way, this offseason, I traded for SJax. I gave: 1.02 (McFadden), 1.03 (Mendenhall), Gaffney, Curry, Pierre Thomas, and Chris Henry - rb. I think I paid a ton, but it was worth it to get a top back. I have a very good team and needed a top back. You have very good RBs, so you could afford the offer you made, but even that is not bad for him ... even though he will think it is.Good luck with this one .....

 

[Reagan]

Jeff, we have moved to a keeper league this season after doing redrafts w/o keepers for years. I have Adrian Peterson as my keeper (we're keeping 1 this year) and he's my 4th round pick (pick 31). I have the 10th pick in our 10-team league, so I'll have picks 10,11, 30, 31 (Peterson), etc. PPR league with standard scoring.

Looking at the ADPs, rankings, and other keepers in our league, it would appear that about the best RBs that will be available at #10 will be MJD, or maybe McGahee. These WRs will be kept: Moss, Wayne, Colston......possibly leaving TO/Fitz/Braylon/Housh there for me at 10. Only TO is a a risk to be taken by 10. Other keepers "ahead" of this ADP: Brady, Lynch, MB3.

I was strongly considering going WR/WR at that spot and taking a RB at #30. The MJD/McGahee tier of RB doesn't excite me as much as having two premier WRs, considering that I have my stud RB in AP. RBs that could be there for me at #30 would be FWP, Jacobs, McFadden (early for him)....and I'd also probably go RB at #50 with someone like a Selvin Young or Jonathan Stewart. If Bush is there at 10, then I have to go Bush/Fitz, in my opinion.

Your thoughts? WR/WR at 10/11....or take best RB available, then WR (11) and take best WR available at #30.

Thanks.

I like MJD and think the little guy is way underrated. He should be a top 10-12 RB once again. To be honest, TO (and maybe Braylon) are the only ones of that group I would consider at the turn. The group of 3rd round WRs will be very close to Fitz, etc but the dropoff at RB is much bigger. I would like to have the MJD/TO (or BE) combo at the corner, then a WR like Plax or Holt or even Welker in 3rd. The thing about it that I see is that the dropoff from MJD to Parker or Jacobs is larger than the drop from Fitz to Plax. I do like Jacobs more than most and he would be a good 3rd round pick. But, the MJD is in a better situation.

Jeff, thanks for the comments. So would you consider MJD to be the bottom of that tier if I'm drafting at 10/11, given the keepers I mentioned? Would you go RB/WR if MJD was gone and I was left with a McGahee or Graham? Unless Bush or MJD present themselves for me, the others just below them, and I would rank McGahee in that group (injury) are questionable for #11 pick. A touch confused on your thoughts on Fitz. He seems to be widely regarded to be about the 4th WR after Moss, Wayne, TO, and you had him rated 6th I believe, with Braylon at 9th. You had Andre Johnson at 4th, most recently. Wonder if I should consider him, but hit injury history concern me. I do track what you were saying however about the dropoff from say MJD to FWP, as opposed to Fitz to a Welker (not as much of a drop). THat concern is partially why I inquired. With us being PPR and me having ADP in the fold, I thought maybe I could roll the dice with two of the premier WRs early.

all depends on scoring ... for the wrs. The fbg rankings are non-ppr. I do expect braylon to take a small step back from last year. no way he gets 16 tds again. But he is a safe choice. I think you draw a line in the sand at MJD/Bush (if you like him) and take WRs if they are gone. If there is a run on RBs, stud WRs should be there and vice versa. Fitz scares me some because of Leinart. He racked up points with Warner. I do like Andre Johnson but understand why he scares you. Also, with both he and ADP, you might be too risky.

Deal is done but I change the 2nd rounder for my other 2nd which should be lower then the one he wanted.Would you trade Jenning and Cotch for either B. Edwards or AJ. Both teams only have one other startable WR. Or would that be way to much to give up for either of those WR's. I was thinking more on my 7 keepers for next year but I guess I could always drop my QB.

I would keep Cotch and Jennings a while to see how they each do with the new QB ..... I think both are top 15 wrs this season

Have another trade in this league E. Manning, T. Holt & his 2009 1st which would be in the middle to top for Hasselbeck, S. Smith(Car) and my 2009 2nd which will be near the top.I countered with E. Manning & Fitz for Hass, S. Smith and my 2nd round pick which he turned down and told me it was to much but I told him I have the WR's now to deal with Smith missing 2 games and Engram missing 3 games.So what do you think.

I think I would pass on his offer. The QBs probably cancel out leaving Holt and a 1st for Smith and a 2nd. Even though I love picks, I would choose to keep Smith. He is younger and has no long term health problems

Someone just dropped D. Jackson would you pick him up and drop B. Engram.My WR's are R. Moss, S. Smith(Car), J. Cotchery, G. Jennings, B. Engram, K. Curtis

7 player keeper league, 10 teams, standard scoring with all TD's 6 points even for QB's & no PPR.Starting lineup 1QB, 2 RB's, 3 WR's, 1 TE, 1 Flex(RB, WR, or TE)QB's Hasselbeck, P. Rivers, B Favre RB's R. Brown, J. Addai, J. Lewis, J. Stewart, K. Jones, D. McAllister, P. Thomas WR's R. Moss, S. Smith(Car), J. Cotchery, B. Engram, K. CurtisTE's C. Cooley, V. DavisK N. Folk I will have 2 1st, 2nd, & 3rd round picks in 2009.Trade I give B. Favre, 2nd 2009 & 5th 2009 picks for M. Bulger, G. Jennings & his 6th 2009 pick.I am thinking that I should take the trade since he drafted Bulger about were my my 2nd round pick will be and Jennings would have went in the 1st round of the draft. I drafted Favre with the last pick in the draft.

I think I would keep Engram for now until we see his progress. I expect him back by midseason.

Jeff,

In the middle of a ppr redraft right now. Who would you rather take a chance on for a #4 RB.

A Green

L Washington

Hey Jeff

What are your thoughts on RB McGahee? Is he worth taking a risk on as an RB2 seeing that he is hurt and rookie Ray Rice is tearing up the field in his absense?

I have him ranked as the 16th RB. Ranked before him I have RB's like Jacobs, Grant, MJD. After him I have RB's like Brown, Graham, Turner, James, Parker, Jones, McFadden, White and Young.

What are your thoughts. Where would you rank him??

Thanks.....

The injury worries me more than Rice. I expect the Ravens to run the ball a lot considering the issues at QB. The one problem with having him as a RB2 is the need for Rice in the middle rounds. But, the upside is that if Willis is hurt, you can prob start Rice with confidence.

Thanks Jeff. I tend to agree with you. However would you draft him ahead of the RB's that I have listed below him? Is there any RB below him that you would draft ahead of McGahee??Thanks

Turner would be the only one I would think about, and it is still not a gimme. I think the Ravens will run the ball a lot, giving Willis plenty of opportunity to produce. The only "catch" for me is having to grab Rice.

14 team dynasty league, standard scoring no PPR, starting lineup 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR, 1 TE, 3 Flex(RB, WR or TE).My rosterQB's McNabb, Garcia, CroyleRB's McGahee, S. Jackson, Portis, IronsWR's Wayne, Bowe, J. Walker, Galloway, StokleyTE's Winslow, V. DavisI do not have a 1st round pick this year but have 2.03 & 2.08 picks this year.I was offered a 1.03 and 2.11 for S. Jackson. His 1st offer was R. Bush, 2.09 & 2.10 for S. Jackson.Bush is his only RB and only has Romo and Fitz that I would be interested in. He has been trying to trade for S. Jackson for about a month now. I know what I think of the trade and would like to know what you think of it since everytime I reject his trade he does not understand why I will not accept any of the trades. I might just offer him S.Jackson, D. McNabb, 2.03 & 2.08 for Romo, Fitz and 1.03 to see what is does.

To be honest, it would take a lot more than either for me to move Steven Jackson. His offers are what you would get for Larry Johnson and there is a huge difference in the two for me. You might some RB rankings on another site LMAO) and show him where the differences are. No one I know of would have those offers as close. To put it this way, this offseason, I traded for SJax. I gave: 1.02 (McFadden), 1.03 (Mendenhall), Gaffney, Curry, Pierre Thomas, and Chris Henry - rb. I think I paid a ton, but it was worth it to get a top back. I have a very good team and needed a top back. You have very good RBs, so you could afford the offer you made, but even that is not bad for him ... even though he will think it is.Good luck with this one .....

He was insulted with the offer pretty much said we were done talking about a trade for SJ and I could put up with the headach of watching him not play this year.Draft question for this league it is a Rookie/FA draft. I have picks 2.03, 2.08, 3.08 & 4.08. Would you take Favre at my 2.03 if he is there over players like Donnie Avery, DeSean Jackson, Earl Bennett, Jordy Nelson, Eddie Royal since my backup QB's are not that great if I take Favre at 2.03 I can get one of these WR at 2.08.Also should I pick Antonio Pittman with my 3rd or 4th round pick just in case SJ is not back by the start of the season.Thanks for all the help this offseason.

do not let the other owner sweat you. Jackson will play, just a matter of when. When he comes back, it will be best time to move him. I think I would take DeSean Jackson or Josh Morgan at 2.03. Then at 2.08, I would look at Favre, Morgan, or Royal. Definitely consider Pittman in 3rd, but I would want Hightower if he is there over Pittman. I would not worry about QB too much. Can you trade for Kolb on the cheap or is he available? I do not have high hopes for Favre this season. I think he finishes midpack.

Kolb is a FA someone dropped him during the off season and I made the mistake of not picking him up because I was thinking Croyle would be my backup and future QB but now I am not so sure about that. Hightower will not even be there when I pick in the 2nd round this draft startes out heavy with RB's. I would guess that the 1st 10 picks will be RB's with a possiblity that Matt Ryan falls to me at my 2.03 pick.
