I'd rather pick 5 than 2 this year for this very reason. There is no consensus #2 pick. I'd be fine with Charles, Martin, Spiller, Rice or McCoy. Foster has been great for me in the past, but can't take that injury risk early in the 1st round. Lynch is solid, and a fine pick in the back half of the 1st round. Richardson is another pretty high upside guy I'd be happy with late in the 1st. The old adage is you can't win a league with your first round pick, but you can lose it (typically injury related).
