I've got the #1 pick in a 10 man league.Who should I pick first,LT or Peterson? And why?

Question

Also,what do I pick for my 2nd and 3rd pick after that? RB,RB or QB/RB? I guess,it depends on who's still available at pick #20 and 21!

Answer 1

I would take LT just because he is by far the more "proven" RB. A. Peterson has tons of upside, but his durability is a big ?.  It could really ruin your season if your #1 pick goes down, and I believe LT has alot better chance of playing 16 games.

so  L.T. it is

And as far as your next 2 picks it would probably be best to take the best available players, regardless if they are a RB WR or QB.

Drafting formulas are ok in theory, but I am a firm believer in taking the best man available.

Hope this helps and good luck.

(oh and by the way I have A.Peterson - got him with 2nd pick, but I am a little nervous about his health)

Answer 2

this is something I have been undecided about as well. many factors, LT is more established, peterson could have the dreaded sophomore slump, although I feel he wont. both are on teams that have qb issues, minny more so than s. diego, so both can expect to carry more of the load for their teams while the passing game gets going. ultimately I think I would go with peterson, why- both have excellent breakaway speed, can cut/break and leave defenders reaching for air, but only peterson can run people over, LT doesnt have the size/power to do that. peterson is a little more of a gamble, but I have won a couple championships by gambling a bit, and thinking outside the box.

Answer 3

you cant go wrong with lt or peterson. Personally i would take lt but i am a hardcore chargers fan so maybe im biased. Still lt has more experience and a better o-line.
