Who would you keep?

Postby Lyrical Assassin » Thu Jul 14, 2011 6:22 pm

1/2 PPR, 1 pt 20 yards rush/receive, 1 pt 50 yards passing, -3 INT

I am just gonna list all potentially relevant players (although I dont think either QB is worth keeping for top 4 value).

Bradford
Schaub

Forte
Gore
DWill
Blount

Bowe
Maclin
VJack
Dez

D Clark
Finley
J Graham

Oh also, I guess I should add that we have different roster formations we can start with, so I could conceivably keep 3 rb's or 3 wr's if you think that's best. You can only switch formation once during the season so what you pick to start with is very important. Formations are listed below:

1 QB, 3 RB, 1 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF
1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF
1 QB, 1 RB, 4 WR (can play TE in WR spot) 1 K, 1 DEF

Thanks for your input

QB: DangeRuss W, Matty Ice
RB: AP, McKinnon, LMiller, TColeman, Devonta Freeman
WR: Dez, Alshon, VJack, Keenan, Watkins, MiFloyd, Martavis, Decker, A Robinson, D Adams, Funchess
TE: J Cameron
K: J Brown
DEF: Texans, Browns

That's a tough one...

I'd probably go Forte, Gore, VJax and Bowe

Although not knowing VJax's situation could make me take Maclin. I guess it might depend on when you have to make the decision.

I dont have to turn in keepers until the Sunday night (by midnight) of preseason week 1. I've been racking my brain all off-season about who to keep out of this bunch since I could keep 3 rb's and 1 wr, 2 rb's and 2 wr's, or 1 rb and 3 wr's...I keep thinking I gotta keep Forte for sure (with the 1/2 PPR) but I do back and forth on the other 3 spots.

I think you'd be well served to find teams with weak 4th keepers and propose them 2 for 1 deals to consolidate your talent and bring a few studs aboard.

projected keepers by team:

Manning, MJD, R Rice, Best/Mike X Williams

Rivers, Charles, Fitz, Jennings

CJ, McCoy, Moreno, Welker

Vick, Andre, Austin, Greene/S Rice

Brady, Roddy, Lloyd, Colston

SJack, Turner, Hillis, Gates

AP, DMC, Nicks, BMarsh

Rodgers, JStew, Calvin, Wayne

Foster, Mathews, Romo, Jacobs?

Brees, Mendy, DeSean, S Johnson/Garcon

Ryan, Boldin, Wallace, Britt/Addai



Those are all the teams strongest keepers…I have been trying to work a trade for Wallace but that owner kinda takes the off-season off until July ends and then gets into it…I would love to go after Foster but I dont think I have the juice to go after him or go after McCoy but the other problem I run into is you dont have to keep 4 guys. If you keep 3 and everyone else keeps 4, you come into the draft a round earlier than everyone else to swoop up whatever player someone couldnt hold onto.

I was thinking something along the lines of Blount VJack (or Dez/DWill maybe as options- his pick of the 4) for Wallace...I have had Gore Forte 4 McCoy out there for a while but I doubt he takes it.

I agree with Forte, Gore, VJax, and Bowe. You have to treat a 4 player keeper league more as a redraft league than a dynasty league IMO.

Good Luck!

These are the four I would keep if you can't make a deal, but I would be offering the team with Roddy any 2 players he wants besides Forte for Roddy. He can't be feeling too comfortable about his 3rd and 4th guy.

You think a Bowe/Maclin would be enticing for Roddy to that owner?

If I had his team it would be, but I would probably let him choose.
