Draft Strategies
With many runningback commitees gone out there, the exclusive back is becoming extinct. With that in mind, the two-stud backs in the first two rounds strategy is gone. The wide receivers are becoming more explosive and reliable in the past few years.
Here's a guide to help you draft the rest of the team after your first round stud is picked:
If you picked LT:
Round 2: Top 10 Receiver
Round 3: Top 20 Receiver or Top 5 QB
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
If you picked AP:
Round 2: Top 20 Runningback
Round 3: Top 10 Receiver
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
If you picked Westbrook:
Round 2: Top 10 Receiver or Top 10 Runningback
Round 3: Top 10 Receiver or Top 10 Runningback
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
If you picked Addai:
Round 2: T-10 WR or T-10 RB
Round 3: T-10 RB or T-10 WR
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
If you picked Brady:
Round 2: Top 10 Runningback
Round 3: Top 10 Runningback
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
If you picked Jackson/Gore/Portis/Lynch:
Round 2: Top 10 Runningback
Round 3: Top 10 Receiver
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
If you picked Moss:
Round 2: Top 10 Runningback
Round 3: Top 10 Runningback
Round 4-Last: Best available and sleepers
Look out for these players/ Sleepers:
Chris Johnson
could end up starting for the Titans mid-season
Chris Perry
currently the starting tailback for the Bengals after they cut Rudi Johnson
Rashard Mendenhall:
Physical back may steal goalline carries from Willie Parker
Nate Burleson:
With D.J. Hackett gone, Deion Branch and Bobby Engram hurt; he'll be the main receiver in a pass-happy offense.
Jabar Gaffney:
N0. 3 receiver for Brady and Co. will put up good numbers
