3rd/4th round RBs
I'm picking 12th in a 12 team league that starts 3 WRs. I'm not completely sold on the late 1st rd RBs, and am considering going WR - WR with both picks unless somebody unexpectedly falls. Which RBs should be targeted in the 3rd and 4th?

1Sam Factor (422 Reputation Points)I have been targeting Fred Jackson in the sixth/fifth round I think he will definitely outperform his ADP.1 Comment↳Shaun Somers (479 Reputation Points)Fred Jackson is a fantasy stud (I know, because I was a CJ Spiller owner last year).

0Sahib Bennett (320 Reputation Points)Going WR-WR means you are looking at picks 12/13 and then 24/25. Based on NumberFire ranks at the 24/25 spot, you might be able to get Morris/Stacey/Gore/Ellington/Gerhart/Pierre Thomas. You can also take a chance on SJax/Ridley/Vereen and FJax a few rounds later in the 5-6.

0Shaun Somers (479 Reputation Points)It's true that RB value deteriorates quickly, but you should also give consideration to taking a third WR in the 3rd round and then going RB-RB in the 4th and 5th. Get Gerhart or maybe Gore at 4, then get Fred Jackson at the 5/6 turn. Fred Jackson is basically the lead back and IS the goal line back for the run-heaviest team in the league.

0Tanner Cornell (363 Reputation Points)After pick 36, things go downhill fairly fast in a 12 teamer. Guys I like around there would be Andre Ellington, Gio if he falls a touch, maybe Toby Gerhart? There arent a ton of choices for a RB1 there(Ellington is the only one i see with the upside to make that possible)1 Comment↳billy bob (433 Reputation Points)No way Gio falls to the 3rd rd. Should come off in the early-mid 2nd with 12 teams.
