Some league settings:
QB TDs - 6
PPR - 1
Point for every 10 yards rushing/receiving.

Team A:
McCoy
Charles
Harvin
Colston/Big Ben
3rd overall pick

Team B:
McCoy
Vereen
Bryant
A. Brown
4th overall pick

Which team do you keep?
Team B

Have to agree  
nygiants16 : 7/31/2014 9:43 pm : link
Mccoy and Charles would be very good tandem but i think Vereen is very valuable in PPR and then you have a great RB, a great WR and a very good WR

I think Brown is going to have a big year
I'd keep team

A Colston/Big Ben stink for a keeper, but Belichick messes with his RB rotation too much, one week all vereen, the next week no vereen, too unreliable and he's injury prone.

If Vereen is injury prone, what does that make Harvin?

LOL, also injury prone, but at least when Harvin is healthy you know they will consistently try and use him.

With Vereen belichick tries to get cute.

McCoy and probably the #2 WR + a stat machine in Vereen makes it an easy choice for me, especially PPR.
See..

team A is what I have. And I have to keep 4. So everyone has to keep 4 players.

1. One guy has offered me Dez Bryant for the 3rd overall pick. I think this an absolute no brainer Not sure why he even wants to do that.
2. A guy has offered me Keenan Allen and Vereen for Charles, which isnt a bad offer... but I want Brown. I countered with Charles/Harvin for Brown/Vereen/5th overall pick. He countered with either both players or Vereen/#5 pick. I really want two guys I can keep and the pick.

its my first year in the league, so I am probably getting shafted on both trades. But I figured a team of

McCoy/Vereen
Brown/Bryant

is a great 4 keeper start, and then the 5th overall pick, I can choose the next best RB or Luck.... who will be available in the initial draft since a guy has both him and Peyton.
In my league

last year - PPR vereen was 40th ranked RB (but obviously he was injured).

Charles and McCoy were 1 and 3 for RB's respectively (with 100 more points and 60 point more respectively) than the Antonio Brown who was the 5th WR in my league, Bryant was 7th).

And Harvin was injured.

I think it will be easier to find a WR to break out like Antonio Brown did (where was he drafted in most leagues last year?) than it will be to find a RB like Charles or McCoy.

it's probably closer than a lot of you think.

True  
dep026 : 7/31/2014 10:31 pm : link
But I have to trade the 3rd overall pick for Dez dont I? I wont find anyone nearly as good as him at that point.
It's definitely close  
UConn4523 : 7/31/2014 10:39 pm : link
I look to injuries more and RB is susceptible.

Almost definitely. Do you know who everyone is keeping at this point?

Because of my leagues keeper rules guys like McCoy, Megatron, Peterson, etc. are not being kept.
Vereen averaged 16.8 pts a game last year in his 8 games  
YAJ2112 : 7/31/2014 11:08 pm : link
putting him 11th at RB.

You must have some bonuses in your league - normal PPR has them at
Charles 382.1
McCoy 332.7
Brown 308.2
Dez 296
we get bonuses
