Punt.

I had the 3rd pick in the 1st round. I traded down in the 1st to trade up in 2 later rounds. Gained 9 picks from the 4th to the 3rd and 9 picks from the 10th to the 11th.

Frankly, I'd take Priest. There's risk, but it looks as if he's the man again.

that's what i feel like doing. i want to stay in the top 8 spots (i think there are 8 top rbs, and i KNOW that all 8 first selections will be rbs).

so you basically traded down, swapping firsts and then sent your 4th and 11th for a 3rd and 11th? that's intriguiging...

I traded from the 3rd down to the 10th spot in the first round. In return, I moved up like this:

I traded my 4th round 8th pick for a 3rd round 10th pick (9 spots up) and I traded my 10th round 8th pick for a 9th round 10th pick (9 spots up).

I traded down 7 spots in the first round, but then gained 18 spots in the heart of the draft, where you should be taking starters, for the most part.

hmm, i just can't trade down that far in the first. i need to be in the top 8 spots to ensure at least travis henry. the first 8 spots will be rbs in my league, no doubt about it. and i've tried to go the sterling wr/qb combo instead of the stud rbs route before and it's failed miserably (in our league). but i like the moves you made otherwise.

Yeah, in my league, 1pt is awarded for a reception, and it makes WR premium, though RBs are still nailed heavily early, for the most part. They just don't learn. I won the league last year drafting WR first, and they STILL didn't learn. Hehe.

That's what I was hoping to do, get Marvin Harrison. Too bad he went ONE PICK BEFORE ME!!! Grrr!!!

Anyway, best of luck getting that stud RB in the draft, dude!

I'll toss one back for luck!

Had my big money league draft last night: Tough draft.

QB Hasselbeck, Bulger (Plummer was the last starting QB taken LOL)
RB Tomlinson, William Green, Najeh Davenport
WR Peerless Price, Ashley Lelie, Todd Pinkston
TE Chad Lewis, Freddie Jones
K Elam, Duncan (I know he isn't on a roster but not enough K to go around...maybe he gets a call)
DEF New England, Arizona

A 20 team league really dilutes the talent at alot of positions.
