Keeper League Which 2 and why?

10 team keeper league. TD Heavy league in which RBs and WRs get 1 point for every 25 yards rather than 10 yards. Everything else standard. I can keep two, but lose my draft selection for the corresponding round. Which 2 and why? There is not a time limit on how long I can keep my players:

Adrian Peterson (Round 1)

Marshawn Lynch (Round 9)

Odell Beckham (Round 14)

My initial thought was Lynch/Beckham, but being so TD heavy, I need to keep that into consideration as OBJ could put up 100 yds and no TDs and that would only equal 4 points.

    I'd go for value on this one and stick with Lynch/Beckham. The TD heavy league does impact scoring, of course, but with the majority of players it's kind of a crap shoot. Scoring is a lot lower than in standard leagues, so that 4 points might end up mattering. The other issue is that OBJ has as much chance to score a TD as any WR, because he has a QB that clearly isn't afraid to sling it downfield. As a 14th rounder, this is insane value (as is Lynch in the 9th).

    Even if you pick late in the first round, I personally think there's too much risk with AP for him to be so highly ranked. Risk is huge with elite players, and there's guaranteed to be a second tier, top 10 or so RB still around to pair with Lynch. In fact, for some odd reason, Forte isn't getting much attention this season. He's someone who could easily eclipse 100 yards in combined yardage, and considering the Bears tried to dump Cutler in the offseason, l imagine he'll be the go-to guy in the end zone, whether it's passing or rushing. This is the hallmark of a John Fox offense. Another guy primed for a huge year is Forsett.

    I would say keep lynch and obj. You get a star player at two different positions, and you might be able to draft AP again right?

    Can't you just draft Peterson (or some other stud RB) in the 1st round? How is this a question?

  • 6 years ago

    Beckham & lynch. because you will not get either one of those in those specific rounds. you will get a stud running back in the first round most likely

    You have AP, keep him.

    He will be THE fantasy beast this season.
