Im assuming u took Petyon with your first overall pick, and it shows. Your weak at both RB and WR.

WISfinfan13 · 09-05-2008, 01:12 PM

The only way I would ever take a QB in the first round, is if I was convinced he was going to score signifcantly more points than the other QBs. But to me the difference between Peyton and guys like Brees, McNabb, Big Ben, and Carson Palmer, dont warrent being taken 3-4 rounds higher.

Yup...I have never picked a QB with my first but I picked 8th overall, and he was the best value at the pick. I pretty much have two solid number two backs starting. I think Bush can be better than avg. at the flex position making up for my weakness at RB. I'm hoping this is the year Bush lives up to his potential. Im also counting on Vernon Davis to put up monster stat in Martz's offense. A lot of unknowns, but we'll see.

I also like Schaub as trade bait down the road. If him and Andre Johnson can stay healthy they both could have great stats.

I really like Bush as a flex option.

Your wr's look the weakest.

There must have been a big run on runningbacks in your draft or you missed a few gems if Willie Parker and Jones-Drew were the best backs in rounds 2 and 3.

I drafted Manning in the first round of one of my leagues and I still got T.O. in the 2nd and T.J. Whosyourmamma in the 3rd followed by Ronnie Brown in the 4th (with Ricky in the 10th) along with kevin Smith and Selvin Young thereafter.

You are either in a tough league with great drafters or you missed on a couple better options. Your team is by no means bad, but I don't know if you will have enough consistent firepower to win it all.

it all depends on the league you play.

I'm in a league where for some reason 4 QBs went in the first round. I have no idea why. It's only a 10 team league but I had the 10th overall pick so at 10 I panicked and saw 3 QBs go before me and none of which were Peyton I snagged him and ended getting SJ as well cause he was still on the board.

It all depends on the league.
