Need help deciding what to do for a draft tomorrow evening. I draft third overall in a 10 team (none PPR) league that awards bonuses for length of TD's, as well as > 100 yrds receiving or rushing. AP and Foster should be the first 2 picks off the board(? - Foster injury excluded). I'm looking at either Rice or Charles at the 3 spot. Any thoughts?

Ray Rice and it's not close. He's now going to get goal line carries, has looked amazing in the preseason, and has Vonta Leach blocking for him (Arian's blocker last year) who won't steal carries like McLain used to. I don't believe Leach has had a CARRY since 2008. Even though you don't have PPR, he'll still be valuable with the amount of receiving yardage he'll get.

Finally, you could make a case that as the feature back under Cam Cameron (former Chargers OC), Rice could see Ladanian-at-his-peak numbers.

what dsf x2.

I have the 3rd overall pick in a 12 team PPR league and I am assuming AP / Foster will go 1-2 and I am grabbing Ray Rice without thinking. Charles has more upside but I love RR this year.

Good luck tonight

Thanks for the help. After some consideration, research, and advise, Rice will be the 3rd pick tonight. Sounds like they are giving him control of his own playing time, and in the new offense he should flourish! Thanks again, good luck to all.
