Who did you "reach" for in your draft? (1 Viewer)

[majstro]

Biggest reaches were Santonio Holmes at 4.05 and Ted Ginn at 8.06 in a 10-team league. The league awards two points for every 50 return yards, so these two guys were higher on the cheatsheet than normal. Here is the team:

D Brees, M Bulger

S Jackson, S Young, M Forte, J Stewart, R Rice

A Johnson, S Holmes, B Marshall, T Ginn

D Clark, T Scheffler

S Graham, T Mehlhaff

Buf, Den

Doesn't anyone else notice the trend? If you think guys like Calvin Johnson and Jerricho Cotchery are top 10-15WRs, getting them in rounds 4 and 5 are bargins...not reaches.

If you think they will be top 10-15 then you are right, those are bargains.If you think they COULD be top 10-15 then it could be considered a reach.I am of the opinion that both of those guys are risks, but worth it in those rounds.

i was in a draft and this guy took mcfadden at 3.09

I took Romo with the 3rd pick in the second(13th overall). Still makes me feel uncomfortable when I look at my team.

6 points for TDs, but -5 points for INTs. Beleive it or not Brady, Manning, and Bress went before pick 13. The only good RB left was Marshawn Lynch. I did not want him at all. T.O was also there, but I already had Moss. I would up with Bush, Edge, and Selvin Young at RB.

J. T. O'Sullivan.

Twice.

Slaton at 8.09 and D'S Jackson at 9.04

It's a 2 keeper league, but any player kept a second time costs a 1st round draft pick. So, after getting my base starters, I gambled that these two might be steals next year.

MOX HP League. 14 Teams 1PPR WR's, 2PPR TE's.

Rookie draft and I took Dustin Keller 1.5.

I kept Jacobs (NYG). Had the 10th pick in a 12 man league. 1.10 took Jones-Drew and then took Reggie Bush with 2.3. I passed up Fitzgerald. The reason i did this is that if someone scores a touchdown outside their position ie...RB catches a TD pass...then you get double the points. I still ended up with Holmes and Bowe as my main WR's with Ginn Jr and Reggie Brown. Not awesome but should get me through the season...

Jones-Drew and Bush are probably good in that type of scoring system, but was Jacobs really your best keeper option? Were you required to have a keeper or could you have had an extra first round pick?

Had to keep one player from last year's roster. i was going to keep McGahee, but his knee and the o-line really scared me off. Sad thing is Jacobs won't see my lineup unless the matchup is awesome......

5th round, Devin Hester.

Only because our league gives points for return yards and TD's to the tune of 0.04 pts/yd and 10(!) pts for return TDs. When I used last year's numbers and added the points to his WR projections he's WR3. Between RWayne and TO in our scoring. Crazy, but I'm just taking advantage of the scoring system.
