Question

I am a first time fantasy FB player I have 1st pick..any recommendations?

Answer 1

You have to go with LT.This may be his last breakout year as he is approaching the big "30". For a R.B. that is getting up there but i would grab him right away.

Answer 2

I am kinda torn on this one, it is pretty much up to you but I will give you my two picks, I would either go with LT or Reggie Bush.

Answer 3

To the guy who said Reggie Bush...you are a complete idiot. I hope they ban you from answering any questions again. And if you are in a league for money invite me because im sure your friends are just as ignorant.

Answer 4

tom brady, i dont like him but he'll light it up again this year

Answer 5

ladanian thmlinson for sure

Answer 6

Here's the thing - Ladanian Tomlinson has been the most consistent fantasy producer for the past four years, and during that stretch he's had one of the most prolific offensive numbers of any back in HISTORY.  Also, Adrian Peterson, while amazing, has nagging injury concerns. (he missed some games last year and parts of seasons in college)  Besides that, Adrian Peterson has Chester Taylor who will take some time away from him, especially as a receiver out of the backfield; since the Chargers lost Michael Turner there is less likelihood LT will miss out on carries.  You've got to, absolutely got to, go with LT.

Answer 7

If it is a keeper league take AP. If it is a non-keeper league take LT.

Answer 8

First, scrutinize your league settings.  Some leagues are very very favorable for QBs.

Second, understand that the NFL had it's fewest number of 300 carry 'feature' backs since 1999.  Running Back by Committee is hear to stay, but with the first overall pick you have the rare opportunity to draft one of the dying breed.

Peterson is the "s**y" pick, but will share carries with Taylor, and has always been dogged by injuries from high scool on.

Tomlinson, up to last year had NEVER been injured.  His injury history and overall health is unheard of.  The Chargers spare him a lot of wear and tear by not playing him in the preseason, during blowouts, etc.

For my money, LT is safe, reliable, and prolific.  Got LT unless you league's scoring is so funky that Brady merits consideration.
