Who Would You Draft?

So I have the first pick overall and am looking for some input as to what you might do in this situation.

Four players could potentially go first overall. An 80/90 running back with a volatility of 62, a 53/90 dt with a volatility of 62, a 37/88 qb with a volatility of 70, and a 55/84 wr with a volatility of 33.

The running back looks like a sure bet to be a superstar, but we already have two young solid, if unspectacular, running backs on the roster. We have an 11 year vet (71/75) with one year remaining on his contract as the starting qb. Our defensive line doesn't look like it needs a whole lot of help at this point. We have two young receivers with potential in the 50s.

Thoughts?

Combine numbers? My first instinct is to grab the DT, because stud DTs are few and far between, while you should have no trouble picking up a decent RB, QB, or WR. But I'd want to see his combine numbers before deciding if he's really worth it or not. If I don't see anything horrid in the combine numbers, I'm jumping at a 53/90 DT in a heartbeat.

I would bitchslap jshipman first. Then I'd move down a few spots. Finally, I would ask myself why the fuck I'm in the PFL.

Oh, since we're talking PFL, I would take the DT at #1, and then i would cut him in commish mode, and then in solo mode I would offer him a 7 year 7 million dollar contract, and then state that I only did it since I didnt like the way the game does rookie contracts.

I'd move down a couple spots and grab the QB.

If this is multiplayer (which it appears to be) I would take the QB. Play your veteran this year, tag-and-trade him next year. Also, acquire a mentor in the meantime.

What kind of idiot in multiplayer gives 3 first round picks for a single draft pick?
