Who is your first round pick?
I'm debating on snatching up Antonio Brown over a top tier RB in the 1st round. I'm wondering if you guys think that would be a smart move or not. If I went for Antonio Brown instead of a RB I would likely not get that great of an RB depending on my draft order.

You should take a receiver or QB because you know or at least have a better idea of what you'll get from them. Taking a RB isn't a good idea because they are more injury-prone and can sometimes go from being great to being washed up and not very good in as little as a year or two. Chris Johnson, Shaun Alexander, Brian Westbrook, Adrian Peterson (possibly) are some examples of that. If the RB is very young and only has two or three years under his belt, it may not be a bad idea to draft him. But still it's better to go after a sure thing like a WR or top-tier QB.

I'd take an RB easy simply because there are so few running backs out there. You can snatch a top tier RB like AP, Bell, Charles, Lynch, Forte, etc. Depending on the order you'll probably miss out on Brown if you choose an RB first, but who cares? There are so MANY good receivers you'd still be able to pick someone up who's on the level of someone like A.J. Green or Julio Jones.

I would pick a solid receiver this year then pick up two RBs the next two rounds depending what happens in the draft. You can get a solid C.J. Anderson with Gary Kubiaks Zone Run Offense this year, and a Jeremy Hill. Thats how I played it in my league ;)

Picking 2nd? Probably not. Picking 8th? Then maybe. I think I'm taking the top 6 RBs before I even consider Brown.

Lots of different draft strategies can work including this one. If you're drafting late in the first round of some drafts, Brown may already be gone.

I think Jonas Gray is going to be a steal for whoever gets him. He's a downhill runner with way more speed than Legarette Blount. He's going to become the starter this year and be a steal for whoever gets him.
