So I'm trying to help someone with their draft and this has been the draft so far..

1. Javhid Best
2. Ryan Mathews
3. CJ Spiller
4. Dez Bryant
5. Taylor Price
6. Damayrius Thomas
7. Golden Tate

here is his roster for this league to help you guys help him
QBs- Schuab, Rodgers, Cutler
RBs- Stephen Jackson, Mike Turner, McCoy, Kevin Smith, Mcgahee, Norwood
WRs- Wayne, Boldin, Marshall, Cotchery, Donnie Avery, Mike Thomas, Eddie Royal
TEs- Vernon Davis, Greg Olsen

so as you can see he has a decent team already.. I'm thinking that he should probably take just pure value here and go with either Ben Tate or Montario Hardesty.. (He loves Tebow and he is an option just because I feel that he can afford to take a player that might take a few years to develop) Or does he reach for someone like Arrelious Benn or Jermaine Gresham? I'd like to hear your guys opinions on the matter, thanks for the help in advance!
QB: Henne, Sanchez, Cassel, Trent Edwards, Derek Anderson
WR: R. White, S. Breaston, Braylon Edwards, Deon Butler, J. Morgan, Brian Hartline
RB: Cedric Benson, Beanie Wells, Ryan Mathews Felix Jones, Maroney, Michael Bush, Fred Jackson, Rashad Jennings
TE: Olsen, Heap, Aaron Hernandez
K: Ryan Longwell
Def: Philly, NE

non ppr, 6 points for all TDs

I'd never draft based on need - I always draft on value (you can trade for need). I'd go with Montario Hardesty, with consideration for Tate as well.

I liike Montario Hardesty with that pick, that is a very stacked team honestly. 8 or 10 team league? Just curious.

I don't see a reason to take Tebow with this pick, just doesn't seem worth it to me.
Actors walk on red carpet because they are important. I walk on toilet paper because I'm the shit.

It's a ten team league.. I think the league started about 3 years ago and the original people in the draft weren't that FF savvy. A lot of people did their original drafts based on who the liked rather than who was good. I actually helped draft this team when the league first started and ended up joining the league myself last year (inheriting the worst team from the year before and winning the superbowl last year :stillers: ).

I agree with the others. I think you (errr I mean your friend) should take Hardesty. Taking Tebow would be a monumental mistake since you could likely get him later or trade for him if some one else snags him. That team could use some RB depth anyway (not a McCoy fan).
I find a duck's opinion of me is very much influenced by whether or not I have bread.

lol its legitimately not me I did actually win this league last year with a different team and my "friend" is actually my dad I'm just trying to offer him some advice but I didn't want to give him a biased opinion from me since we are in the same league I wanted to make sure other people felt the same way about picks before I told him who he should take
