Who would you take a flyer on with 20th round of redraft league (1 Viewer)

If you miss, you can just drop them for a back up K or DEF before season starts, but if you hit, you could hit a gold mine.

Corey Dillon/RB

Ricky Williams/RB

David Boston/WR

Who would you take a flyer on with that last pick of your draft where all 3 are most likely available....

 
I would go with Williams. It seems as though he pulled himself out and he may just be waiting to ask for a reinstatement during training camp, so he can miss it.

 
Dillon for this year.

Some solid playoff type team could have an injury and Dillon could get signed

and run for a 3.8 ypc clip but get 17 carries a game. Along with several touchdowns.

 
David Boston by a mile. Of the three, isn't he the only one currently on a roster? No matter what, he's currently the only one getting ANY snaps with the first string. He's a WR with some stud production in the past who is in peak physical condition and playing for a team with a current dearth of WRs. Of the three, Boston has the best chance of being on a roster at opening day, the best chance of being a starter on opening day, and the best chance of being in the top-20 at his position by the end of the season (I could see it happen if Clayton is still a bust and Galloway declines due to age or injury).

This isn't to say that Boston isn't still a huge longshot, I just think he's much less of a longshot than the other two.

I think Maurice Stovall will get more playing time and post better numbers this year than Boston, and possibly the rest of the WR corps in Tampa by year's end. And he's just as cheap in most drafts.

I don't think that's an unreasonable belief, but Stovall wasn't one of the choices. The choices were Boston, Dillon, and Williams, and of the three, I'd prefer Boston.

Point taken. Given the choices however, I think I would take the cowardly way out for now and employ the wait-and-see approach. Today, I agree, Boston would be the best choice, for the reasons you stated. Ricky is a distant 3rd, as I don't see much chance of him making his way onto an NFL roster, this year, or possibly ever again. The reason I would reserve judgement for now, is that depending on if and where Dillon signs, he could end up with some value. Personally I don't think he has much left in the tank, but in the right situation, he's an injury away from being a decent flex player in spot starting duty on a fantasy roster. I suppose you could make a similar argument that Boston could crack the Bucs starting lineup, and end up as a fantasy WR3 on occasion, but I just don't see that happening.Dillon is the only one I'm considering in my top 300 rankings right now (as I have a draft in a start-up dynasty, 12 team, 25 roster spot, non-idp league in a little over a week).

Dillon is the only one that was recently drafted in my 300-player startup dynasty draft (10 teams, 30-man rosters, Dillon was the 247th player off the board).
