Gameplanning for 12th pick

[Tailgate]

....of a 12 team league. Here is a scenario of who is left. Which 2 do I take?

Reggie Bush
Ronnie Brown
Willis McGahee
Laurence Maroney
Cedric Benson
MJ-Drew

[Mr. White]

I'd take Bush and Maroney (maybe MJD)

[Ryan]

i think bush and any other running back other than ronnie brown would make a good combo

[axman40]

So who did you take?

[TexansLucky13]

Bush and Jones-Drew would have been my pick.

My roommate went to high school with Jones-Drew, actually. They are on a first name basis.

The draft with the gang is this Wed. Talk about last minute drafts! Its a tough to get 12 friends on the same page. Although, I hear we are going to have ballet parking this year.

I agree....I think I am going to take Bush if he is still around. Then for some reason I am gravitating towards Ced Benson. Those 350+ carries sound pretty good for a #2 rb.

How would you guys rank the players possibly available at 12? Thanks for your help btw.

[Mr. White]

Looks like someone REEEAAALLLY likes Antonio Gates. That just isn't healthy taking a TE in the 1st round.

Let's just say eyebrows were raised and a couple of jaws dropped.

I would take McGahee and Maroney.

Not a Bush fan. Don't think Benson can go too many weeks without hurting himself.

And yes this old lady has been playing fantasy football for the past several years and makes the playoffs in almost all her teams.

[Tailgate]

Here is how it went down:


Starters:

QB - Matt Leinart
RB - Reggie Bush
RB - Lawrence Maroney
WR - Tory Holt
WR - Javon Walker
WR - Jerrico Cotchery
TE - Vernon Davis
K - Robby Gould (chi)
Def - Broncos

Reserves:

QB - Alex Smith
RB - Lendale White
WR - Dwayne Jarrett
WR - Ashley Lelie
WR - Jerry Porter
TE - Eric Johnson

So far so good with Bush.
