NFT: Last Minute keeper advice

dep026 : 8/24/2014 8:56 pm
I traded a 7th round (3rd round pic after keepers) for Wes Welker. Then he gets concussed for the 3rd time in 10 months. I have to put my keepers in by tonight, and have no idea what to do. If I dont keep him, it looks stupid to trade a high pick for him. My other alternative is Percy Harvin. Who has injury issues himself.

Anyone know more about Welker's injury?
Concussions are the Russian roulette of football

He could get another and be done for the season or he could play the whole year and never have another one

McCoy had a couple concussions in one year and he looked like he might be vulnerable to them and he hasn't had one in two years

Just never know but I have heard doctors say every concussion makes the next one easier to come by
I would keep Harvin over Welker

Welker is too injury prone to me and that is saying a lot being compared to Harvin.
Denver's Wr /te core in much better

id keep Harvin
It's a concussion

I don't think Denver's medical staff knows how long he'll be out.

I know you're an analytical guy dep - it's not about 'looking stupid' - it's about winning fantasy football games, damnit.

Keep Harvin IMO.
Yeah I kept Harvin

If I didnt have a somewhat decent option, I may have stuck with him but I wasnt keeping Steve Smith or Zach Ertz.

Its my first year in the league, and I was stuck with a shit team of keepers. Having to keep 4, I have two stud RBs in McCoy and Charles, but had to trade some picks just to keep guys like Welker and Cordell Patterson. Now Welker is out. So my 4 keepers are McCoy, Charles, Harvin, and Patterson. Not awful, but I am behidn the 8ball with 2 less draft picks.
you have the two best RBs in fantasy football

no... not 'awful' in the slightest
I just got rolled in my draft today

It's bad enough that we don't do a snake draft and I had the 11th pick. I also somehow didn't realize I was up for my sixth round pick because my sound was off and my team's helmet changed, and I wound up auto-drafting Steven Farking Jackson.
