    Default Choose my three keepers

    Pretty much the same as basic Yahoo leagues, but the scoring is weighted a little differently. A QB gets an extra point for every 50 yards thrown, not 25. RBs get a point a every 20 yards and a WR gets a points for every 20 yards, whereas Yahoo default is a point every 10 yards. Everything else is the same.

    10-team league. We start 2 QBs, 2 WRs, 2 RBs, 1 TE, 1 W/R/T, 1 K, 1 DEF.

    I have the fifth overall pick.

    My top players are Prescott, Carr, Davante Adams, Jimmy Graham, Fitzgerald, Forte, Tyreek Hill, A.J. Green.

    I'm thinking I have to go with Prescott, Carr and Green and then go for a RB with my first pick. It's tough to drop Adams and Hill though, so I wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing.

    Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.

    12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.

    League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.

    Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.

    We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.

    Ask around to see how many QBs will be kept. Personally would do Carr, Green, Hill/Adams, then drafted a QB with the first or second round pick. Like it's a 20QB league, still options out there and FOR SURE need to keep 2 Qbs.

    Green - no doubter
    Carr - no doubter

    After that... I don't know... I guess Prescott, but thats not good.

    You HAVE to draft a RB that can be a keeper for you next year.

    I read this wrong for some reason I read Prescott name and was thinking of Zeke. Carr, Graham, Green are your keeps IMO, Seattle starting using him as a feature piece late last season the trend should continue.

    That's what I was thinking. Although more inclined to roll with Carr/Green/Adams. Ten team leagues are more forgiving with dropping a QB. But a 2QB format would add a wrinkle to that rule. Remember you don't necessarily need two top 15 QBs to win in this format. If you can pair Carr with Bradford, Hoyer, Palmer while beefing up depth at RB/TE/WR that would work too.

    I forgot an important word with my final thought of that post lol.

    Thanks all. I actually did try to get a good RB last year to no luck. My first three picks of the 2016 draft were Doug Martin, Jeremy Langford and Giovanni Bernard. They all bombed. My next two picks were Carr and Prescott, funny enough.

    Carr, Green and Adams would be my picks. Then try to find a way to upgrade at RB.

    Problem is, there's no trading until after the draft. So I'm stuck until the draft, and then can try to trade. But it's difficult with RBs.

    I'm going to cut against the grain a little (at least I think I am).

    In this format and with those options, I'm keeping Carr and Prescott -- in addition to AJ. Sometimes you just have to play the hand you're dealt.

    Under these circumstances, with no ability to trade pre-draft and a top-end WR in Green already in my hip pocket, I'd look to lock in what is sure to be one of the, if not THE, best QB duos out there. Then, during the draft, I'd hit the heck out of RBs and WRs as others surely spend early picks on QBs in a 2 QB format, etc. If worse comes to worst, you then still have the flexibility after the draft to use your choice of Prescott or Carr (both of whom should garner plenty of interest) to upgrade elsewhere if needed.

    I think TE is only going to be deeper this year than in years past. No way I'm spending 1 of my 3 keeper selections in a 10 team league on Graham. Sure, he could be quite good assuming he features in the offense and stays healthy. But he could just as well be -- and is probably more likely to be -- a huge disappointment given the significant capital you'd be spending to make him 1 of only 30 kept players league-wide.

    Good luck!
