Hurry, I need help with fantasy roster

steelheader · 08-17-2009, 10:21 PM

I am in a Yahoo PPR keeper league and I am up to draft right now (24 hrs)
I still need to fill my kicker position and 3 defensive spots so to draft I am going to have to drop someone. I am looking at Moreno, Greg Olsen, Cedric Benson, McCoy and Percy Harvin. So, do I draft one of these guys? Who would you drop? Or do I just stand pat with my team. BTW, I inherited this team 2 years ago and went from last to first, through the draft and free agency. I will go with the board consensus.

I think I'd have Gonzo over Bush in that starting slot, but still unsure on how productive any rookie will be and typically avoid the defensive player setups. For DL..might be worth checking into Osi or maybe another Giants Lineman as I think they'll have another solid season chasing quarterbacks.

As far as kickers go, I see Hanson having another solid season. Should be really good for the first 5 or 6 games as they've got very tough matchups, but see them moving the ball, but as normal stalling out. Plus any home games or domes, Hanson and 50 yrds is very possible...and almost automatic.

I just put the guys in the spots randomly for this post. I will pick up my remaining spots once free agency opens up. Would you drop anyone for the guys I am looking at?

You use team defense AND IDP in the same league? Interesting. How does that work? I love playing IDP leagues instead of team defense. I think if more people did, it would really increase the card market for stud defensive players. Demeco Ryans and Patrick Willis are basically treated as commons in the hobby, yet they each have performed more consistently than Brian Urlacher and Ray Lewis the past couple seasons.

Do your IDP's also get points for return yards / return td's? If so, Josh Wilson from Seattle is a beast! I had a couple games from him last year that were higher than any of my offensive guys.
