  • 2013 is not 2012. 2012 there were reasons to believe Martin and others might be highly successful (Morris, less so). 2013, Bernard is the best of them, and he's in a mediocre situation; everyone else rookie wise is just meh. I think laziness is right. QB is certainly irrelevant in this league - your QB will be fine, whether it's Vick, Romo, or Eli - and WR depth is insane this year (Erick Decker's still available??) That's why I'm really surprised at the number of people not prioritizing RBs. Every other position is basically flat, and RB is becoming more and more limited...

    • The 60 million dollar man in South Beach goes last in the 9th round. Did Miami goof?

      Yeah Doug Martin was a trendy pick that none of these rookies are approaching in obviousness this year.

      Decker went top of the 8th round.

      • Wallace could be a good value pick at 9/10, but he's also a big ?? due to the offense (they have no offensive line), the sophomore QB (who usually have down years), and lack of talent around him. Also, he fell off a lot in PIT. I'd have considered him for WR5 if the obvious lottery choice was't Austin, given his potential upside, but he's not someone you want for WR3.

        • I took decker and wallace so hopefully I found value with those picks. I was actually really really really worried I would get ****ed out of a QB when Spaced took his 2nd QB. If there had been a run of 6-7 2nd QB picks I would have been stuck with Flacco, Freeman, Cutler or worse! And all things considered that might have been optimal strategy given that nobody would have been seriously impaired in their draft decisions by this. I love collusion!

          Actually for 9 and 10 I really wanted to take Wilson and Romo back to back and just be done with the whole QB question.

            Honestly, Wallace has the highest risk reward in my estimation of available WRs out there. TY Hilton was going to be my pick in this round if he hadnt been taken (and hopefully that pick wouldnt blow up in my face like antonio brown last year). But I'm looking at other WR 1s and WR2s on teams where WR1 has been taken and its just...well its just not that good. We really are in WR5 territory now despite only 1 team having a WR5 (Yours). We're looking at WRs that will have less than 800 yards and 5 TDs at this point.

              • It is Coughlin's MO throughout his tenure with the Giants to use RB2's at the goal-line.

                • Seems like one of 3-4 RBs still worth taking at this point. A 40% share or thereabouts, and one David Wilson fumble away from starting.

                  • Yeah, I just figured you or jag would be the ones. I'm not too worried about wilson losing the job and as an rb3 or flex im sure he will hit 1300 apy and 6 tds even if Coughlin is a fumble paranoid delusional about fumbles
