Integrity28 Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 I think I will take Carlos Hyde in every draft this year.

I think he "arrives" this year Yep, I knew I'd end up light at RB when I pulled the trigger on Calvin. But it was worth it. It was either him or Charles at 5 and I just can't trust Jamaal. They lost key guard Asamoah and he's a bigger injury risk than some of the other top RB's. Not to mention I've been burned on too many RB's in the 1st round in this league and wanted to go with a safer pick. I compounded my RB problems by taking Brees at 16 with Montee Ball on the board, but I liked the advantage of having a top QB every week over the usual Romo/Cutler type I've been getting as my starting QB in drafts. Gio and Ellington are a duo I really like, however. They both have Week 4 byes which works out in my mind; I'm willing to "punt" that week and in exchange get them both together every other week. Pass-catching RB's always get underrated in non-PPR leagues. I'm expecting big things from at least one of them. Hopefully I can supplement my RB group with a waiver pickup early in the season.

Great value. People are all slobbering over guys like Justin Hunter as sleepers (thanks to ESPN). Not to imply Hunter can't blow up, but now he's being over-drafted. Meanwhile, Deandre Hopkins is sliding to the end of drafts. As for Sproles, in a PPR he is great value. Should have been taken much sooner. There is NOBODY else in that Philly lineup to spell McCoy.

I need to do a keeper league one of these days. I was happy to take him there, so I wouldn't have to take a QB in that 8 -11 round span. I want RB/TE/WR there for guys that help me win this year, but next year too. I don't mind taking a late QB keeper, like Geno. I'm really expecting James White or Aaron Dobson to be great keepers next year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad. I avoided Charles in all my leagues though. I think he's more prone to injury than some of the other top flight RB's because of his body type, and KC had some OL concerns coming in. His Week 1 performance did nothing to dissuade me from that point of view. Then again I picked Tennessee to win Week 1, I think they're a playoff team this year with an underrated defense and Ken Whisenhunt running the offense (see how Rivers did without him this week? Yeah.....). Charles will have much better days, and he's one of the few RB's out there who's shown that he can win you a week on his own. Love that you got Marshall and then Sanders in the 7th, that's a solid duo. But you better be active on the waiver wire for RB's. If Charles gets hurt and WHEN Mathews gets hurt, you're screwed. At least its not for money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be able to deal away a WR or combine a WR+RB for a better RB. It's a pretty solvable problem. Theoretically yeah, but I never like the idea of leaving a draft with only 3 RB's. Problem is it seems like everyone is loaded at WR this year unless you're in a 12 or 14-team league. So you'll have to pay a premium for RB's. If you don't get them in the draft you'll always be chasing after them later. Leagues I'm in generally use 2 RB's, 2 WR's, and a flex spot for RB/WR/TE. In 1 Yahoo money league I'm in they're use 3WR with no flex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is/will be getting all the RB receptions that went to Sproles last year. I had thought he'd split that role with Cooks but it seems like they're using Cooks downfield a bit thus far rather than in that "space guy" role.
