    ALright,. Got the #2 pick in 10-man league that gives fractional PPR. For the last 13 years, I've consistently made a bad choice with my #1 pick, and then done well with the rest of my draft, but it's hard to compensate, so I want to hear what you guys have to say.

    We have Foster, CJ, AP and maybe R Rice.

    - Foster was a beast last year, but will his hamstring slow him down?

    - CJ is holding out, although I read a rumor that TN is willing to make him the highest paid RB if he reports. I'm a little worried about CJ, he had a good, but not spectacular year, and I don't see an improvement with the even-worse QB situation TN now has. plus, how will the guy do after he gets paid?

    - Adrian P - I think Vikings have improved at QB, but how will their receivers do with McNabb? seems like the safest bet of these 4

    - R Rice is rumored to be the goalline back now too for JAX, why I put him in with the other three.

    I wouldn't outsmart myself and go with AP if he survives the #1 selection. If AP's gone, I'd rank them Johnson, Rice, Foster. Put Foster ahead if you want an upside gamble.

    Is there one that you have a strong gut feeling for? You can make the case for and against any of them because all have question marks. Besides maybe AD. If you have a couple weeks before the draft then wait to get more information about Foster and CJ.

    For me, I go:
    1. Peterson
    2. CJ
    3. Charles
    4. Rice
    5. Foster

    Also, don't rule out McCoy. Last year he was a PPR monster.

    Well our slow live draft starts in 1 week, so not much time to see how preseason develops. I'm leaning towards AP if he's available. Charles is an interesting idea at your #3 slot too. If nothing else, that would really piss off my buddy who picks #4 and is a huge Chiefs fan. he's a gamble, but hard to ignore.
    I think right now I will only eliminate CJ, even though you both have him #2. His 2nd half numbers weren't that great: only 3 rushing TDs.

    Keep in mind Foster is also losing his probowl lead blocker in Vontae Leach, who will now be opening holes for RR on Baltimore.
