Re: Fantasy football draft strategy question - esp. for ESPN vets
[ QUOTE ]
it looks like you need to rank all the RB's by recieving potential, see if any monsters are left, and draft them. I think the WR's will be good enough for you to grab some quality ones in the the next 2 rounds. BTW, how did tiki outscore LT? [/ QUOTE ] Tiki outscored LT in my main league last year and we have a somewhat standard scoring system (but bonus points for recepts, rec TD's, long TDs, etc...)

Last season for example, Muhsin Muhammed led all WR's with 344 pts. and Donald Driver was #10 with 273 pts. The #20 WR was Eddie Kennison with 243. The leading RB was Tiki Barber with 352 pts. (receiving heavy, as you can see). Rudi Johnson was #10 with 241 pts. The #20 RB was Priest Holmes, who scored 203, albeit due to injury. But the total points of the RB's drops off at a quicker pace. [/ QUOTE ] Doesn't the above information dictate that you take a RB in the first round? The dropoff is much too quick. The difference (RB1 - RB10) is more than the dropoff (WR1 - WR20). To me, that screams take RBs. As armchair said, you can get top 25 WRs late in the draft.

[/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I was thinking that getting two top-10 WR's would be an advantage perhaps, but you're right, I'd need a RB in the 3rd round to pan out perfectly, and I can't count on that happening.
