If LT Falls To You Do You Draft Him?

I was reading this article debating the merits of drafting LT. I thought I'd ask the GIF community their thoughts. If LT falls to you in Round 1 do you take a chance on him?

 

In a 10 team league if he fell to me say...6th or 7th pick on I'd definitely take him. He'll definitely lose some carries but I still think he's worthy.

 

I had the 8th pick in the espn gif league and i took LT. Also got tom brady in the 2nd which could turn out really well.

 

I would take LT if he fell to the back half of the first round. Even if Sproles picks up some carries, LT would get the rock around the goal line.

 

late first round would be a steal i think he could bounce back.

 

I would definately draft him if hes around you could always use him for trade bait if he does well. It would be a steal if he does well.

 

It's tough not to draft him there as guys with solid number 1 tallent are few and far between...his upside makes him way worth the risk

 

I wouldn't take him before 8 or 9.

 

in a ten team league
no
in a deeper league, yes

 

^^^
:word:

 

if i can screenshot it
ill show you a league where LT was taken first

fail.

 

This...obviously I'm not taking him with 1-2-3-4...

 

Yea thats a dumb move but you never know LT could go back to the LT of old.

 

could

kyle orton could be the leagues best QB this year, doesnt mean you draft him high

 

no he couldn't...lol...

 

I had Westbrook last year. Worrying about an injured player every week is a pain in the butt. I'll let somebody else take this risk on LT. He's on my no-draft list.

 

im making a POINT, not actually saying Orton is a good qb

 

i would not take him first 5 picks or so but after that yea he still has huge talent for his age

 

I know...I was just busting stones...

 

you people that say you wouldn't take him are nuts. Dude had an awesome year last year considering. You can't expect 30TD's and if he does less, then say he isn't worth it. I would take him third overall, especially in a ppr. He has been one of the most consistent scorers in fantasy football and you can't do much better than that.
