Thinking about taking 3 straight running backs??

    10 team Ppr. 4pt passing tds. 6 for all others. 2 year keeper if player is drafted after third round. Start Qb 3wr 2rb flex Te

    I have the second pick. And none of the guys in my league like T-Rich. First guy is now taking Rodgers. I will take Rice second. Am I crazy for wanting to do this ?
    (I am keeping Victor Cruz and losing my 4th round pick)

    2nd overall pick - Rice
    19th overall pick. T-Rich
    22nd overall pick D. Murray

    If you can get it done do it. But I have a hunch Murray won't be there at 22 and T. Rich shouldn't be there at 19 either. I think I would hope to get lucky and land 2 of the 3.

    Not crazy.  I think the RB depth is seriously low this year with a lot of question marks.  If you can secure 3 RB's, it might very well pay off since there are always bound to be injuries.  Plus, I like the WR depth and feel you can get good players later.  I also like some QB's you can get later on like Rivers or Cutler.

    Agreed!

    Believe me guys I know these guys shouldn't be there. But I'm 90% sure they will. Every guy in my league is a skeptic and they are all about the sure thing. But given the chance you guys say go for it?

    I'd do it and then stockpile WRs like Antonio Brown, Denarius Moore, etc later.

    Piling on...WR and QB are deep.  RB is not.

    Have you mocked 3 straight RBs yet? There are some midround values on RB ie Starks, Brown and Best. I would suggest grabbing an elite WR with one of your 1st 3 picks.

    with the flex, i'd load up on RBs.  especially in a 10 team league?  Trust me.  

    I think you have a great strategy
    2013 Predictions:
    -Jay Cutler will not be a starting QB in the NFL after 2013
    -Matt Forte will have the best season of his career in 2013
    -Trent Richardson will exceed 18 total tds in 2013

    If there was ever a year to do that its this year. RB position is very valuable this year with all the stud rehabbing serious injuries. Thinner than most seasons. Also, since you can start all 3 makes even more sense.
