I'm going to target Ray Rice or Michael Turner then hope people get frightened off from Rashard Mendenhall's pre season. |

I'd say Gore before Turner in any league, not just ppr. I'm not drafting any St. Louis Rams before the 4th round. |

Absolutely draft Frank Gore! The reason I would draft him is he has a decent offense around him and won't be the focal point IE Stephen Jackson. Think about who Frank Gore is going to play against twice this year. St Louis, Arizona and Seattle. Horrible offenses and mediocre defenses. He will have a career year. I doubt Ray Rice will still be there unless your league sucks. The top 5 should be Chris Johnson, Adrian Peterson, MJD, Ray Rice and Frank Gore. So take whomever is still up there. |

The 49ers never seem to get him enough carries and he has some durability issues. He is very similar to Westbrook in Philadephia. I like the idea of Atlanta giving Turner 20 carries a game and all the goal line snaps. |

Someone in front of me did pull the wildcard with Rogers, so Ray Rice fell to me at 5. Nice. Then I took Moss in round 2 and ran up to the board when Cedric Benson fell to me in Round 3. Other RB Cadillac Williams Ricky Williams Other WR Ochocinco Steve Smith Carolina Maclin Devin Thomas QB Eli Favre TE Cooley D Eaglos I think I had a great draft. I didn't overdraft anyone and I waited a long time to get a QB. I'm thrilled with two workhorse running backs. I got what I consider the 2nd best WR and backed him up with 3 guys who could start. I know people were getting wasted early (one guy showed up in the bag), but there was some bad drafting and I benefitted from it. My best draft day in a long time. |

Very solid draft. Having Moss and Ray Rice is a nice 1/2 combo. |

So I got what I wanted...now do I dare start either Cadillac or Ricky over Rice in Week 1. Rice has the Jets, both Williams' have great matchups against the Browns and Bills. |

Yes, you should do that. It is always a smart move to bench your first round pick in the first game of the year. |

I like the reasoning but you cant do that |

You can lose based on decisions you make in Week 1. While I wouldn't normally agree with a move like that I think GD would be smart to do it. I think this Jets defense could be all time great this year. |

Would I feel better today if I had drafted either Gore or Turner? |

Well I think I had the 7th pick in my league, and my computer was taking its sweet time loading up the draft screen, so I missed the first two rounds and I was automatically given Turner and Favre. And I said no way would I take Turner. |
