I'm drafting 10 in a PPR league and we are in the 5th round. Up to now, based on the Draft Anaylzer suggestions. I have Lamar Miller, Allen Robinson, TY Hilton, and Russell Wilson - which I almost didn't take but it is what was recommended. There are still Hyde, Matthews, Forte, and Bernard still on the board as out ranking Woodhead which Paulsen's article said to target in the 5th round. Well, here I am. It's likely a least a couple of the other RBs will still be there when my pick is up (we are drafting via email which is kind of nice but slow). Should I take Woodhead or if the analyzer suggests a different RB go with that. Thanks.
I like Woodhead, but I think Forte is falling too far, and Hyde has a lot of upside as well. I have a special kind of hatred for Ryan Mathews as a fantasy back, but there are those who love him as well.
What you get with Woodhead is such consistent production in the passing game and an underrated ability to find the end zone. I think he's a steady option for you, but he might be there in the 6th round. John has Woodhead higher than Forte by a couple of spots, so clearly we think Woodhead is the right pick, but I'd personally have a hard time passing on Forte in that spot, especially thinking you might be able to get Woodhead a round later.
