Well, I genuinely didn't like any option I had there without massive reaches.

Curse you Shan and your running back obsession. I thought for sure I could get Ameer on my next pick.

Have no fear, there will always be someone on the waiver wire who comes out of no where, like Justin Forsett last year.

Just woke up and messaged twelve. Hope he'll see it in time but cutting it close.

Okay I feel a lot better about that pick. Wasn't too sure of it at first.

[Stalker]

Some of you know I'm a jets fan so that's part of the reason. I think it's going to be more committee based in NY than people are saying though. 4 backs of about similar skill level.

How long left?

Edit; I think there is 55 minutes.

Ha! I wanted them and couldn't be sure they'd be there when it come back round to me. I'm looking at you Twelve/Brujah

You're going to be condemned to scour the waiver wire for RBs, I guess.

Brown - Cobb - Jeffery - Blount - Yeldon - Tannehill - Seahawks...

Your lineup would imho look so much better with Charles or Lacy instead of Brown.

Last year I picked McCoy as the number 1 pick and he under performed every game.

I looked at the last 2 years (of my selection and tactics)and the top ranked players didn't turn out to as well as they should.

Using that information and seeing how well the top WRS coukd do in some games made me pick the WR strategy. However,like Twelve mentioned it would suit a lower down player 9/12 to grab the elite WRS.

We will see, I know I have a rookie but LeGarrette Blount was my preferred RB when scouting.

Lastly I wanted to get started players in before filling up my sub bench. Less headache. All different teams too so far. Last year I had 3 Eagles players.

Dammit HD. I knew someone was going to be paying attention.

Tattersail - gotta admit, I am high on McCoy having a rebound year which is why I took him. He's on a new team without a star QB - they're going to run the ball and do lots of short passing so I'm thinking McCoy is going to benefit.

[HoosierDaddy]

My #1 pick is going to be absent the first two week, so figured I could go with a part-time first team player here. It's about his average draft position in the tool I'm using. Plus, you never know with Foster. So, we'll see.

Much weaker o line then what he was running behind in philly, plus defenders will be able to stack the box. I am a McCoy seller

[Shinrei]

Like a Bear fan would have any clue. If you did, you'd have become a Packer fan long ago.

Did you look at the reasons for them turning out like that? Because Brown had a career season in 2014 (most volume, most total yards and a ridiculous # of TDs), much like McCoy's 2013.

[Tattersail_]

I got to admit I didn't 😊

I'm pretty happy so far. It's the next 5 picks I'm worried about.
