Fantasy football Running Backs in a point per reception league? I am drafting 5th, 16th, 25th and need 3 RBs.?

Question

I am in a point per reception league where I can start 3 running backs.

There are 10 teams and I am drafting 5th.

Who are my best options with consideration to my draft possition?

I was thinking my possible selections could be:

Round 1 - Westbrook, Addai, Johnson

Round 2 - Grant, Lynch, Jamal Lewis

Round 3 - Laurence Maroney, Ronnie Brown, Thomas Jones

I want a running back who is on the field full time or most of the time with passes going his direction.

Am I looking in the right direction and are my possibilities accurate?

Rushing Attempts (.2)

Rushing Yards (10 yards per point)

Rushing Touchdowns (6)

Receptions (1)

Answer 1

I'd be surprised if Westbrook,or Addai is available at the 5th pick.Avoid Lary Johnson;especially in the 1st round.I had him last year,and he was a huge bust.I doubt he'll improve much this year,either.Gore,or Barber would be my picks if LT,AP,Westbrook,and Addai are taken.

Round 2 worthy RBs (in order) are M.Lynch,Ryan Grant,and McGahee.

I REALLY like Jamal Lewis this year,but you might be able to get him at the 25th pick (That's his average draft position),but it would not be to

much of a reach to snag him in the 2nd round,especially in your type of league...Round 3,(if not Jamal) I'd lean towards D.McFadden,or Earnest Grahm.Maroney was mediocre last year,R.Brown is coming off

knee surgery and will split carries with R.Williams,and you most likely could get T.Jones in round 5.~~G{}{}d Luck!

Answer 2

If it's a point per reception league then you might consider Reggie Bush in the 2nd round. He's been a disappointment but he catches a lot of passes. He might be gone by your second round pick, but if he's not I like him better than Grant or Lewis. I agree with the guy above who says Lynch will be gone by then.

Good luck.

Answer 3

westbrook. if AP doesn't get taken second then AP

grant. i don't think lynch will be available.

jones. best out of the 3 and should be available
