I think it's just as "homer" to make a point of going against your players despite all else as it is to go with them.

If so I have never followed that, I had both LJ and Gonzo last year and was disappointed on missing out on TGreen. Won the championship in one league and lost the final in the other so I think I play pretty honestly. |

LJ is the number one pick in over 75% of the drafts out there. I don't think that makes you a homer just because we happen to be Chiefs fans.

I do understand what you are saying but I still look at him as #1 for the mere fact that he ran all over teams during the time that Roaf was out last year. Roaf has a more direct effect on the passing game. I know that effects the running game too but his numbers earn him the respect of the pick. Roaf or not. Doesn't matter to me anyway because I don't a pick above 3 in any of my drafts and don't expect him to be there.

Well, if your numbers are accurate, I guess I have an outside chance of seeing him in at least one of my leagues.

1) It is not going to affect LJ directly - LJ is more of a north/south downhill type runner. Priest benefited greatly from Roaf and his ability to create a hole where Priest could get to the outside. LJ is a different runner altogether. LJ is much more dependant on the interior line. And he more than proved he is not dependant on Roaf last year in the 3 games totaling 450 yards when Roaf was out. 2) Roaf retiring will mean less blind side protection for Trent. Less blindside protection for Trent will mean a more conservative Trent. A more conservative Trent will mean more running for Larry. |

If you're looking at ADP data... LJ, Alexander & Tomlinson are a dead heat at the top overall selection.

LJ was a completely wasted draft pick. We should have taken Boss Bailey.

Rounds 1 and 2 are where you want to get your RB's. Every league I've been in, you have to start 2 RB's and 1 QB. Maybe it's just because I'm in a 16 team league, but still. |
