hagler 0 Posted August 14, 2006 Do I have to take Peyton here......? What is the difference if I take him or the #10 team in the league takes him with the 2.03 pick...? People who say not to take him on the turn (1.12 & 12.01) ----what is the reason that it's OK to take him 2 or 3 picks later.......? For those who suggest drafting Peyton on the turn if he's still there.....Do you go Peyton-RB....or Peyton-WR? Still not sold on McGahee, Westbrook, or even Cadillac as my #1 RB.....? Rather have a Holt-Peyton or even Holt-(C.Johnson or S.Smith) Thoughts??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Savage Beast 1 Posted August 14, 2006 Why not take him? If your gut tells you to draft him, draft him. Do you have to have somebody hold your hand when you draft your fantasy team? Be a man for God's sake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greedo 13 Posted August 14, 2006 Peyton's a safe play. You won't win or lose your league because of it. And nothing wrong with Smith or Holt at 2.01. You just can't be wrong at RB, and must uncover a gem, or your #1 QB/#1 WR combo won't be able to make up the lost points at RB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FecalHead 0 Posted August 15, 2006 With this year's RB situation, you need to go RB/RB with 12 and 13. There is MUCH more value at QB in rounds 3-6 than there is at RB. Even of you didn't go RB/RB here, you'd be better off going RB/WR than RB/QB. IMHO that is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brentleim 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Manning will probably win you 3-4 games on his own even if you have second tier RBs. Thats true, but the other 12-13 games you will be relying upon your running backs to at least keep you in the game... and besides, Dungy will probably sit him the last couple of weeks again this year, just in time for the playoffs... Noone in my league has ever won the league picking Manning in the first round... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 907 Posted August 15, 2006 I'm picking #11 and I'm thinking about taking RB-Manning. Like everyone else says, you HAVE to get 1 solid RB before the turn. Otherwise, you're screwed. However, I think you can get decent WRs later on and hopefuly Manning will more than make up the difference of that dicey second RB you'll get in the 3rd/4th rounds... ie Dillon, Green, Taylor, etc..

MockerSuperior 0 Posted August 15, 2006 I think you have to grab at least 1 RB. My situation is close (12th pick in a 14 team PPR league). I never take QBs early and believe this year there are tons of solid options later. My decision is whether or not to go best RB left at 12, and then come back with the best WR left out of Smith/Holt/CJ at 17. However, in 14 team leagues RBs are at a big premium when you start two. Plus it is a long time before you pick again and no guarantee of RBs being decent in late 3/early 4th. I have toyed with picking best RB at 12 and then picking McGahee, Bush, etc...and then take the best WR that falls to me in the 3rd/4th (Most likely player like Santana Moss vs. R. Williams or C. Chambers which I would prefer). Either way I am not going to take Peyton at 12. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 907 Posted August 21, 2006 I'm in two leagues. A cheap $20 league and a big money league. I had my cheap league draft last night and with the 11th pick, I went QB-WR with my first two picks. (I'm not sure I'd have the guts to do that in the big money league). Here's how it ended up: QB: P. Manning (1st round) RB: W. Dunn (3rd round) RB: F. Gore (6th round) WR: T. Holt (2nd round) WR: D. Jackson (4th round) WR: D. Branch (8th round) TE: J. Witten (5th round) Backup RBs: T. Bell (7th round), C. Houston (10th round), D. Staely (11th round), L. Betts (13th round) Personally, I think I did REALLY well. I have the best QB, great WRs and a good TE. And Dunn makes a solid #2 RB. The only thing I'm missing is a legitamite #1 RB and there's a chance that one of my backup RBs will turn into that #1 RB. Even if they don't, I still think the point difference between F. Gore and a true #1 RB will be MORE than offset by the rest of my players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OD99 0 Posted August 21, 2006 Peyton at 12? No problem! I am thinking of taking him at #4 now that Clinton is hurt...without Edge this year I think Manning will be the top point producer in FF and money every week. Problem is it is a 14 team league so I will be left with scraps on the way back down...might have to go QB/WR/RB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OD99 0 Posted August 21, 2006 Or mental issues... I don't even know if I consider Tiki/Portis as clear #4 picks and that is what is leading me to think of taking Peyton. Nobody jumps out at me after the big three. That said, I think that McNabb will be great so I could suck up #4 and take a RB (nobody that I will be happy with though) and hope to get McNabb in round 3 (Snake draft so I don't think he will be available at bottom of round 4) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Staffer 0 Posted August 21, 2006 Don't do it! It is far too likely that Manning will not be playing very hard when you need him the most. He will tail off at the end of the year, just in time for the playoffs. Plus, you can get quality QB's later in the draft. You can't get quality RB's later in the draft.

yodaday 0 Posted August 21, 2006 Manning at #12 is a steal. Follow up with a #1 elite receiver on the turn. YOU NOW OWN A #1 QB and #1 WR !!!! Then for your 3rd and 4th round picks, get Gore and MBell. You are now set my man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then for your 3rd and 4th round picks, get Gore and MBell. You are now set my man. Finally...The voice of reason! Look at your scoring stats from your league last year. My bet is that your #1 QB and #1 WR are a far better options than having your #10 and #11 RBs. The difference between RB #10 and RB # 17 for example is far less than the difference between QB#1 and QB #7. It's all about outscoring your opponent, and not about some silly opinion that you need to go RB-RB in your draft in order to win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seadog54 20 Posted August 21, 2006 I had the 10th pick on my 12 team league. I could've picked up Peyton in the 2nd round, but opted for Westbrook. 15 straight RBs were taken off the board. I ended up with Eli Manning in the 4th round. If I would've taken Peyton, my next RB would've been Addai, Gore, Foster....etc.... I think I came up with Eli Manning + Westbrook over Peyton + #3 rb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
