I started another thread on this, but I have more info.

The league is 10 man PPR. We can keep two keepers at a cost of 20 bucks per player.

My players are below.

Peyton Manning, Den QB
Matt Forte, Chi RB
Justin Forsett, Bal RB
Alshon Jeffery, Chi WR
Mike Wallace, Min WR
Jared Cook, StL TE
Larry Fitzgerald, Ari WR
Cardinals D/ST D/ST
Mason Crosby, GB K
DeSean Jackson, Wsh WR
Steven Jackson, Atl RB
Ryan Tannehill, Mia QB
Boobie Dixon, Buf RB
Andre Williams, NYG RB
Pierre Thomas, NO RB
Andre Ellington, Ari RB
Danny Woodhead, SD RB

if you can get Forte, Alshon, and Forset all for only $60 of your budget I'd say that's starting out pretty nicely

What is your total budget?

Forte is probably a no brainer.

Your choices are one of those 4. I'd probably go with Jeffery and Forte. I don't trust Manning this year and I doubt Forsett is able to repeat what he did last year.

Forte and Alshon for sure.

forsett is going to be a PPR boss. If you were getting a slight discount on forsett I'd lean that way, but with the price being the same I don't think you can go wrong with either, though Forte is more of a proven commodity.

I'd go alshon and pick one of those 2 backs

What is stopping him?

This is my question. The Ravens have even further depleted their receiving corps and Forsett is in a perfect position to help fill the void, while Lorenzo Taliaferro doesn't excel in the passing game.

I am aware that Forsett has been in the league a long time and didn't shine until 2014, but anyone who is the primary runner in Baltimore is in a good place to have a nice fantasy season.

I'd keep Forte and Forsett and start them both. There are plenty of wide outs--you'll get a good one or a good two if you're a savvy drafter.

In a PPR I would go Forsett and Jeffery.

Forsett should get a lot of catches with Marc Trestman as his new OC. Forte's catches will probably go down. It is very close between these two in a PPR.

Forte's receptions were likely due to go down regardless because that was just an absurd number, but even before Trestman Forte was catching 40-50 passes a year, so he's not going to go to a complete non factor in the passing game post-Trestman.
