12 team PPR league. Hard to keep up with things in a live draft, especially when one guy takes 3 minutes and then the next 3 rattle off picks in 30 seconds. All that said, not terribly disappointed with my team.

QB: Carr*, Wentz (worst spot since I goofed and drafted 2 QBs with Week 10 byes)
RB (2 starters): McCaffery*, Gore*, Riddick, Kamara
WR (2 starters, 1 flex): Julio*, Michael Thomas*, Fitz (flex), Decker, Melvin Jones
TE: Kelce*, Hooper
DEF: Pats
K: Crosby

Had the 6th pick (snake).

Drop hooper and wentz. You aren't starting either unless it's a bye week or someone is hurt. Get help at running back immediately.

Riddick, Kamara and McAffery could give you nice return in PPR formats. Use all three in favorable matchups against bad defenses.

I like your team. I'm assuming you waited and drafted QB late, so Carr isn't bad and you can play QB roulette during the year if need be. Your WR core is strong, and I think 30h is a good spot for McCaffrey in PPR.

I think you made a mistake drafting 2 QBs and 2 TEs. Now, I'm sure you got those guys in like the 12/13th rounds so it's not killer, but you should have grabbed a few upside RBs instead, or if you're not gonna do that, should have just picked the best D and then K, because those were just wasted picks anyway. Overall though, should be a fine team.

Also - I love live drafts. My league recently switched from live to online and I miss doing live drafts so much.

How long had you played without doing a live draft?

I would look for another QB. Carr is going is going to have a rough go of it vs Chiefs(x2), Broncos (x2), Chargers, Titans, Pats, and Giants. His schedule is much tougher this year. I would definitely want someone better than Wentz to stream with Carr.

I'd also drop Hooper and pick up another RB flyer. Hooper is fine, but you will never start him over Kelce and you aren't going to flex him over Fitz.
