I was going to draft two running backs in the first two rounds, but should I go for a QB in the second round instead? I am worried that when my third round pick comes around there won't be any QB's left. What should I do?

I am worried that when my third round pick comes around there won't be any QB's left. What should I do? My league I'm in has QB, TE, RB, 2 WR, K, D, Def Player, and two flex players WR/T, WR/R and 4 bench players.

RB, RB, QB, WR...unless Manning makes it to pick 9
Don't be tempted by over price players like Palmer and Brady. If Manning is there at #9, you have to take him, but the difference between Brady and Bulger (3rd round) are no where near the difference between Reggie Bush and E. James. It's all about getting value and the better value is the best running back available at #14 overall.
Maroney, Westbrook, and Rudi Johnson are great first round talent that could make it to you. Each should score at least 12 TDs, and they have upside as well (meaning they could scoring much more).
Henry, Bush, and McGahee are all great running backs that you can't pass up on. If you want to compete with the teams that have LT and S. Jax, you will need two top 14 running backs to get even with them. There will be plenty of WRs and QBs available after the 2nd round...you need a running back in the 2nd. There may even be better running backs available that you can take before these 3, but you won't do worse.
In the 3rd, since you want a QB, get the best QB avaiable...Weither it be Brady, Brees, Bulger or McNabb...you should be able to get a top 5 or 6 QB in the late third round.
4th round - you should go wide reciever...there are 16 consistant WRs and at least 7 of them should be available in the 4th (choose between - Wayne, Housh, Walker, R. Moss, Evans, Fitzgerald, Colston, R. Williams, Drvier, Boldin and A. Johnson...with the top 5 probably gone)
Good luck

Go RB RB WR RB and then a QB. There is plenty of talent out there at the QB position. Guys like Cutler and Lienart should be available. Maybe even take a flyer on Culpepper.

Only if it's Manning. Otherwise stick to two running backs in rounds 1 and 2.
