And with the # 9 pick, do I take ....
Gore or Lynch ?

12 team snake draft. Not quite PPR (1 pt. for every 3 receptions).

Assuming Steven Jackson returns from his holdout, the first 6 (not necessarily in this order) are: LT, Peterson, Jackson, Westbrook, Addai and Brady. I do think Barber goes # 7, and if he should fall to me at # 9, I will take him.

Not going to take Portis as I have a bad feeling he breaks down this year. Likewise, I don't think Randy Moss comes close to what he did last year and there is better value in taking Wayne (or TO) in the 2nd round (should I decide to go that way).

I can list 3-4 reasons pro and con for both Gore and Lynch. What do you guys think ? And why.

Thanks for the opinions fellas.

they should end up getting him, but who knows. When do you have to decide by ?

lynch to me just seems like the better talent so I would just take a small chance and go with him. He also has evans on the outside so teams will have to respect the passing game a bit more than they will have to with the 9ers dont you think ?

My draft isn't for a couple of more weeks.

Gore is a beast, and has always been a top receiver. Martz will throw it to him ALOT. He may only get 60 yards rushing, but he'll get 6 receptions and 60 yards receiving each game too. It's the TDs that are the question mark.

No. Too early. Should Brady fall to me at # 9 I would have to take him (6 points for passing TDs) but I prefer other QBs this year.

that is the way I am leaning. But if Lynch should go # 8, then I think I am taking Gore over Portis or LJ. Not sure about Moss however. Problem is I am eyeing a QB in the 2nd round, and I can't come out of the first 2 rounds without an RB.

Yea if you dont get Brady or Romo for QB i think the next level of qbs is pretty comparible.

Manning (because hes hurt)
Palmer
Brees
Big Ben
Anderson
MAYBE McNabb

So you should be fine taking a RB there and QB in 2nd or 3rd round

If Gore Is Available At 9 I Would Take Him I Think Mad Mike Is Gonna Try And Use Him Like He Did Marshall Faulk.
