Hey guys
Where do you take embiid
He is going 3rd round in 8 cats. All comfortable with that?

We're already getting word that he's on a min restriction. I don't think I want him.

Yeah, minutes restrictions, likely rest days. You'll find way better investments without the migraine in the 3rd round.

I know I am in the minority when I say this, but if you are in a H2H league with playoffs, I wouldn't touch him in the top 50. By then, he'll probably be gone.

Hank I'm basically with you. I wasn't taking that risk that early.

Agree, he's great when he's playing but how often will that be? He's already said himself that he probably won't be playing 82 games, and there are a ton of players in the third round who have a better chance of doing that so it's not worth the headache. Just take Richaun Holmes late and pat yourself on the back when Embiid goes down and you've got a top-75 player.

I agree wholeheartedly with everyone, especially Najee. No one is targeting Richaun Holmes right now cause his injury. If you have an IR slot, then it makes things 10x better since you can have a steady stream slot for a month or two.

Holmes is going to be good this year. Make no mistake, he's part of the plan.

@BBallHooligan -- I think that's smart. In big leagues you HAVE to take that chance. Playing it safe in a 16-teamer won't work.
