Default Help me with a football draft, get T&B $

IM me at BBMarlins1. I'm still learning the NFL so I could use some help. Draft starts 1:15, I have the first pick.

Yeah, LT's my first pick. No doubt.

Just not sure where I'm gonna go from there.

No sir. It can be, but don't just waste your 2nd pick on a rb2 if he sucks, when a #1 wr/qb talentis on the board

Plenty of WR's to go to that emerge through out the season. I understand going with a QB on the second pick but when you get two strong RB's LT/someone else that tandem will put up a lot of points.

He's in a 12man league with the 1st pick, when it comes back around to him the rb talent will be a diminished 3 tier rb with high risk. No way I'm taking a big risk in a ronnie brown or a Reggie Bush over a Braylon Edwards, Brees, Wayne, Fitz, Owens and so on. Just my style, you draft the best talent on the board. For the past few years FB has been crazed by this 1.RB. 2. RB picking and it has killed so many people. Sure in some instances it can work out, but hardly the strongest strategy.

Exactly. Especially because many more RB's break out than wide outs.

Give the coaches credit for using our people just right, give the receivers credit for great catches and give us credit for blocking. But Marino is the magic
Regarding Lawrence Taylor:
“They said there’s this rookie linebacker who’s tearing up the league,” he told the New York Times. “I said, ‘Well, good, that’s the fullback’s problem.’ Then I took a look at him and said, ‘Well, maybe the fullback can’t get it done.’”

I find it the opposite and it has worked out for me.

Agree to disagree then. Many more Ryan Grants than Marques Colston's IMO.

Last year there was a lot of WR's that emerged but it varies I guess.

CJ is going to break out big. Cant believe I got him as late as I did.

Also grabbed Ricky Williams and Ginn in the last two rounds. Ginn has been unstoppable so far (made Rashean Mathis his bitch last night.) and Ronnie Brown will find himself coming off the bench this year because Ricky is back.
