Well, I'm in a keeper league and I have CJ, MJD, and Forte that I'm keeping and not spending anything more than an 6th round pick on any of them... This makes my prospects this season look even better.

LT is not worth drafting in the top 5 picks. He is now 30 years old and beaten up and worn down. Chargers have only done nothing but abuse him and run him into the ground ever since entering the NFL. I will be staying & passing on him come draft day in every league i am doing. You all can have LDT.

How is it that Steven Jackson can even be mentioned in a first round? I have always liked the information from Rotoworld, but to take SJax with a shaky O line and a history of acne that keeps him out of the lineup. He is not worthy of a 2nd rounder even. 1 year he put up decent stats. 1 year. And now he is some legend? Get over the guy!

vince----stop making it look like mjd was on a pace for 1700 yrds based on his performance the last 3 games of last season...he played indy, gb, and balt....the only team out of those 3 games that was playing defense was balt....indy run d was a joke all year and gb d just straight up fell apart second half of last season....so don't base what he is capable of doing agaisnt 2 out of 3 scrub d's.....total bs to base it on that premise

I have to choose between Rivers and Schaub in a keeper league, where 6 pts given per TD and 1 point per reception and -1 point per incompletion. Who should I go for?

schaub.. everyone will say otherwise but other than rogers, hes the best up and coming qb out there (unless cutler somehow goes back to a passing offense again)

I am THE A Pete fan of fans. I threw away a season in 3 leagues to get the #1 pick in 3 keeper leagues his rookie season. (I was like Ditka) haha That said though, tough decision, becasue I am biased I say A Pete, but I really like Forte in PPR leagues. He has more opportunity to offer points (receptions) and Da Bears will run him into the ground regardless of Cutler. Their WRs still suck...
