Got the 2nd pick, what to do?

It's a ppr league. I believe that Jones-Drew or Turner goes 1st.

Do I go AP if he is there or Forte?

If you honestly believe Jones-Drew or Turner goes 1st, why wouldnt AP be there? LOL Seems to me, if you have the 2nd pick you take either Turner or AP, whichever is there. I would think they will be #1 picks in most drafts...

you missed the part that said it was a PPR league. PPR makes guys like MJD and Forte more valuable

Just because all the magazines have someone # 1 doesn't mean he'll go #1. It's a point per reception league and Forte had 63 and peterson had 21. AP tends to get banged up and with Harvin there and the QB situation still up in the air, it scares me. There is no question about his talent, but too many ifs.

I took Turner in the 4th round last year and everyone this year will be all over his nuts. I think his production goes down.

The guy who is drafting 1st was hyping Turner and Jones-Drew right before we selected the order.

do NOT take Turner at # 2 in a PPR league.

Even though it is PPR (elevating the value of MJD and Forte), if Peterson is there, you must take him at # 2. If he goes # 1, then I think you choose between Forte and MJD.

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

If AP does NOT go #1 take him

hey, you asked for the advice, not me. Seems to me you have enough info to make your own decision. So, don't ask for advice, then criticize it..

Good luck with whatever you do..

Didn't mean to come off like that. Was just trying to explain my reasoning. I always value everyone's opinion.
