If Arian Foster Is Said To Miss The First 2 Regular Season Games, Will You Still Draft Him In The 1st Round If He's There?

And if you wouldn't take the chance drafting him with the 1st or 2nd overall pick, how low would that pick be in the 1st Round before you swiped him up, if at all....??

In my league he is being kept so it's a non factor for me...but personally I would pass on taking him high. If he misses a couple games this gives Tate or Ware (?) or both to impress, and could really cut down on the rest of Foster's touches for the remainder of the season. Too much risk. And this is a hamstring injury that emerged before preseason week 1 IIRC, then reemerged last week. I don't like that.
Having said that the guy is a total beast when healthy, but it would depend on who was left on the board whether or not I draft him

was thinking the same thing..i draft 3rd in a 12 team ppr and was leaning to mccoy

I had a draft tonight and Foster went 5th. I passed on him in the 4 spot and took McCoy. It is a PPR league.

He went 8th in my league.
