I know it will be moved, but runnin out of time. I have to draft tonight, 3rd pick in a 12 team league. Its a cbssportsline scoring league. Assuming Tomlinson and Steven Jackson gone, who do you take???? Thanks in advance.
I'll take LJ and his 17 or so touchdowns. I don't care about the holdout or the retired linemen. He's still gonna be a beast.
Probably Gore. LJ is holding out, lost some talent on the OLine and (thanks to Herm) has had a monumental amount of carries over the last two years. Alexander, like LJ, lost talented OLineman and is an injury risk. Addai is a risky pick that could have a high reward. My top 5 look like this: LT SJax Gore LJ Addai After those guys it gets a bit murky. Alexander 6th? Fast Willie? Westbrook? Does anyone have any thoughts?
i?d go with LJ, he?s just so much better than the rest of the pack, he?s worth the risk. If you?re scared by the holdout, i?d go with Alexander. Imo we have 4 elite-FF-backs in this league this year: LT, Jax, LJ and SA!
This is the big debate of this year's draft along with Brady, Brees, and Palmer. Me and my buddy are picking 8th in our draft and we're worried the first 7 picks will go LT, SteveJak, LJ, Gore, Addai, Shaun, then Peyton (it's a QB-heavy league). So then we'd have to choose between Rudi Johnson, Willie Parker, and Brian Westbrook. We're hoping it doesn't come to that because we can't choose. We'd rather have Peyton. We decided that, if we have to choose, we're taking Westbrook. But, really, all 3 guys are totally equal in my mind.
with Irons out, rudi climed up my board, now it?s safe he?ll get the full load, no matter what. For willie, i?m gonna wait and see what role RBs have in the new Steelers O. Wessy would be a top 5 RB if he could stay healthy, if i land Wessy i?m gonna go RB 3 times out of my first 4 or 5 picks. But after LT and Jax, it?s a big gamble.
