Newton
Gurley, Ajayi (kept in 7)
Brown, Hilton (kept in 4), Nuk (flex)
Graham

Britt
Jon Brown
Ginn
DeSean Jackson
Cobb
G Bernard
P Perkins
Riddick
Didn't grab a defense or kicker yet.

Your RBs could be really good, or really bad.

Good team and great WR core. You're going to need RB help though.

RB's are pretty bad. Underwhelming more than "can't believe my team" for a 10 team league.

How did you keep Ajayi in the 7th and we're unable to do better than Paul Perkins as your 3rd RB?

Pretty much everyone thinks this after their draft. Isn't it amazing how everyone "just falls falls in your lap" every year?

No worries, I'm guilty of the same line of thinking.

Go on

With the turnover at RB throughout the year, it's dumb to invest heavily at the position. You got two guys who will get 250+ carries, then an upside guy in Perkins and two decent floor guys w the PPR backs

As long as you're doing work adding RBs throughout the year, those guys are fine

Seems like if you don't get one of the Top 10 guys, you're runningbacks are bad.

At least that's what I've gathered in my short time reading this board.

Thing is that OP does have 2 potential top 10 backs. He just doesn't have one of the 2 or maybe 3 elite guys.

And if he wasn't picking in the Top 5, he probably had no shot at them.

Seriously? I mean that means everyone but 2 or 3 teams has bad RBs if not having one of the Top 2 or 3 means your RBs are bad.

This is why I don't stress over RBs, because of that thought process. If I don't have a prayer of getting Johnson/Bell/McCoy/Elliott/whoever makes up the Top 3, then I'm not going to stress which of the other RBs I get, because chances are, I'm going to shuffle all but a few of them.

I think his RBs are good for a PPR league.

I picked 3rd overall. Gordan, Murray, Howard, and another RB were all kept. It was a very slim RB field at the 17th pick with 5 of the RB's with top 20 ADP overall already being gone.

Should've stacked your bench with rbs instead of WRs. Solid team though

It's a trade heavy league. Put a few good names on the bench to give me some trade value. Most of the people kept were RB's.
