I need your expert FFB draft help.
I would appreciate any advice you FFB people could give me. I play in one league with people I would very much like to crush. I am 'dead money' in this 12 man league.
So, here's what I have..... In a serpentine(up & down) draft, I have the #2 selection of where I want to be in that draft order. Do I take the #2 pick (if #1 is gone)? and Who's my #2 pick? #23? #26? Any other draft position theories? Thaks in advance to anyone who gives me any opinions. They are appreciated.

I'd go #2 and take Priest. If you're dead money, you just have to gamble.

[/ QUOTE ] In the majority of the fantasy leagues, Alexander is going #2, so you need to use the strategy they are allowing you to by picking you're own pick. Pick #3 and you'll be assured of either Priest or Alexander, most likely Priest.

No way I take Holmes over Alexander. Holmes has tons more risk without much more upside. [/ QUOTE ] 10 td is a lot of upside to me.

[/ QUOTE ] Are you saying that Holmes can put up 10 more TDs than Alexander this year? That is just asinine. Sossman has the right idea- take the 4th or 5th spot. Someone ahead of you might make a mistake, and you are still guaranteed and elite player at that spot.

Alexander had 20 least year, and 16 the years before. Maybe 10 is a lot. But it isn't close to asinine. Holmes is also much more inovlved in the pasing game, plays on a team that needs to put up 30+ pts to win etc. Yes, the guy gets hurt. But if he doesn't he can win the league for you. And his back-up is solid enough that in that system you'll have a solid starter if Preist goes down.
