plan (a) vs. plan (b)...

hi guys...i'm in an auction league ($200 cap)- on EVERYBODY'S advice, i agree i have to keep jamal lewis ($33)...contrary to popular belief, i believe a top qb is worth the money (i've won 4/6 superbowls with that strategy) - but i've also always had 2 legitimate starters @ rb...this year, im thinkin':
(a).   culpepper for up to $40 (all i'm spending on qb)
(b).   a. brooks / delhomme (both of which i'm sure i can get for UNDER $40)...
(by the way - by choice b could you tell i'm a saints homer???)
i'll get another to 10 back and believe i can sneak duckett under the radar for my #3...
what do you think???
prm...

Is J-Lew the only keeper?
 
What kind of scoring do you have?  How many players (and positions) do you start?
 
Is it reasonable to think you could get Culpepper for $40?  I've never played in an auction league, but it seems that I've seen him going for more than $20 in $100-cap mocks.

Culpepper for $40 is too much if you want to get another top 10 back.  Because then...well, that's gonna be a ton of cap.

I'm not sure what you're asking.  I can see someone questioned you on the need for a top flight QB already, and you seem to be set on this strategy.  However, 2 legitimate RB starters is key, and I'm not sold on Duckett as a legit starter.  With Vick back, that offense is going to take on a completely different face.  Will he perform like he did at the end of last year?   Will he have the touches to do so?    
 
Philly's question on scoring is a valid one.   My league gives 1 pt / reception (punt, kick or pass).   That makes Harrison , who gets 5-7 recs/ game, worth a heck of a lot more.  Dante Hall got me 15-25 every week last year.  Since I don't see you mentioning a WR at all, am I to assume you have very limited scoring for receivers?  
 
I guess if my choice were just between your plans a and b, I'd go with plan A.  I'm not sold on Duckett, and don't like giving up CPepp for him.
 
That's solid analysis, no homer-ism!  Really!

thanks for the input - duckett isn't to be my #2 - i'll get deuce - no matter what he costs (couldn't keep him b/c i paid $61 last year) - i'll pay it this yr if i have to...($40 was what both qb's cost last yr)...duckett could be #3 - i may even drop lower...rb's go hot & heavy in my league...scoring is pretty standard...6 for td - rb/wr/te/d.st...3 for passing (qb)...and yardage bonuses (standard also)...everything else goes pretty low b/c we spend the $$ on rb (mostly) - wr are a dime a dozen & i usually play matchups with them all season - but again, it works for me...does that clear things up a bit???
thanks again for the input...

Duckett will prove all you nay-sayers terribly wrong this year.
Yes yes yes VICK is back BUT, you don't think Atlanta wants to play the season without him again do yah?
Duckett is the ONLY player on that team that can handle a load (Dunn snaps like twig - Vick is injury prone) carrying the ball.
Duckett WILL get his this year and IF you were a gambling man - you could easily pace him as your #2 and spend your cap elsewhere.
To boot, he will be a GREAT #3.
In addition, Atlanta purchased the services of Denver's OLINE coach and we all know what the Broncos produced with just about ANY RB in their lineup.
 
See Duckett Run.
See Captain Purple & Sexy Dexy Cry.
See Duckett score TDs.
See Prm win another league championship.
