This is a 12 team, 1pt PPR league, with 2 pts PPR to the TE's, and we start 1 flex between RB/WR/TE. I figure on keeping Greg Olsen, Doug Martin, and Mark Ingram, but which one of the following would you keep?
Carson Palmer, Damaryius Thomas, or Julian Edelman?
Since with 4 keepers, the draft choices get a more than picked over and of course, it's like starting the daft in the 5th round, where I will be picking 6th. I wouldn't normally include a QB but there will be 5 or 6 kept in this league, and I would try and keep a WR but there are nobody better than those two that won't be kept.
I know the QB situation is up in the air but I think Thomas is too good of a talent not to have on your team even if it's Sanchez throwing the ball. Strictly based on ranking, Thomas is probably the guy. That said, you can't go wrong with Edelman in a PPR league. If you look at our projections, DT is higher than Edelman but the projected points are just 3 off. I think Edelman would be my pick just based on your league and that it's a PPR.
I think you almost have to go with a WR as your fourth guy. Going into your season without one protected seems a little risky to me. I like Palmer but I think you'll be able to attack that position early and make sure you have a capable QB. Palmer would be tempting for me, but I have to assume you'll get someone similar to him where you may not get someone similar to DT or Edelman.
