Paul Marnie Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Was a very tough decision there that I was agonising over for a while. Decided to take David Wilson in the end ahead of my other (much safer) choice as a gamble pick with massive upside. Could be a great RB1 going forward, or could be an RB3, but worth the gamble imo.

Stevie Les Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Took Demarco Murray. I know about the injury concerns but got too much upside to turn down. Not gonna get a franchise QB in this draft so the plan now is to take a Flacco Eli Big Ben type. They can carry me for a year or two, then pray I luck out on one in a future draft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Marnie Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 If Murray can stay fit he's a top 10 easy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee4Life1893 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Good pick with Murray. Surprised he fell that far. Would have had him over McFadden. If I hadn't taken CJ1K in the second and went for a QB I'd be all over him in the 3rd. Just feel CJ is due a season and with the OL the Titans have formed for him he has no excuses. Sorry bout Stafford. Needed a top 10 QB. Like GS said I'm surprised they all went so early. I've lost a 7th round pick now. Not sure how important that will turn out to be as this is the first time I've done a draft like this. Enjoying it.

Romo was my fallback. I don't like Romo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few page's back I mentioned I had hoped for two players in rounds 3 and 4. One was Stafford and the other David Wilson. How wrong was I? Seriously guy's I can't get a read on what any one is doing here. You are all driving me insane. P.S Am I taking this way to serious? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee4Life1893 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 How ironic. SuperCaley picks a Lions player with the pick I traded for. Bush is boom or bust for me. Could be a great pick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infact I think you've pulled of a great trade. Gutted to be stuck with what I'm stuck with but can't blame anyone but myself. Just did not expect things to pan out this way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSaint Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 Initially, I had DeMarco Murray way down because of injury concerns but I talked myself back into him and he would have been my pick had Wilson or Stafford not been there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperCaleyGoBallistic Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Went Bush over Miller there. Think Miller will have a great year and future but couldn't justify taking him in R3. I'm not too worried about everyone taking QBs early although I guess we'll see later whether not taking one is a mistake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewbo Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Massive gamble there but there was no chance I was taking Jackson or MJD as my number two running back in this format, don't see them being all that great anyway this year. If Miller is as good as everyone says then I'm chuffed with that but I'd probably have gone with Murray if he was still on the board... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of good fantasy guys left at QB, seeing the big 3 go early on obviously spooked people. I'm hoping I can take advantage of that, pick up better guys in other positions and get an above average QB to support the rest of the team.

Miller was my next pick but at 64, maybe a reach but I would have traded to about 50 for him. He is that good...if he stays fully fit. Expect him to have 2 or 3 long TD runs this year MJD is still a great pick, I'd be taking him here if I had a pick Edited August 6, 2013 by Paul Marnie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSaint Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 I'm still raging that the Jets didn't take Miller in the 3rd Round of the 2012 Draft. Supremely talented. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expect him to have 2 or 3 long TD runs this yearaye I feel like it was a big reach but at the same time I wanted a good number 2 RB and nobody else left really fit that description. A receiver will be much easier to pick up a little later on... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
