I had Sanders in my rough draft. I had him too low so I copied his profile to move and forgot to insert him. I'll add him later.

Re: kelvin Benjamin had a good rookie year, but was kind of flukey based on game flow. I think he'll get over drafted but I don't hate him.

Good work...don't think Marcus Wheaton even comes close. He did nothing when Bryant was suspended last year. I think Coates will emerge.

oddly enough Wheaton had a huge game @ Seattle last year going for over 200 yards but only had one other game where he even topped 70 yards.

plus I wonder how L.Green is going to get worked into the fold. Obviuosly his game is different from Heath Miller's game.

always hard to project a guy that didnt play at all last year. Coates at AUB was pretty much a big play deep threat. I honestly hate owning those guys in fantasy and think he may be more of a hit and miss guy.

Wheaton isnt great but if that offense is clicking and healthy he wont be asked to do a lot and should be open enough to do some things.

yeah, I agree with the DT88 take. You see people talking about the dropped passes he had too (not so much here) but just some internet narrative out there.

Shoot, if somebody else wants to keep skipping him, I'll pick him up. He's a proven player but I guess some might not favor the QB situation up there either. Then you'll also see people picking based on what he's done and not giving a crap who is throwing to him.

in an auction league I think he could be a huge bargain. No way to tell in a snake draft though.

TJ Yeldon based on what I have I am going to keep him. I do not have better options. We do 3 keepers and my other two are AJ and TY.

How do you feel about TJ Yeldon?


yeah I like guys with abbreviated names

It's hard to really tell but my best guess is you'll see a 60/40 type split in Yeldons favor. He'll get the 3rd down reps & ivory will be more short yardage oriented. Ivory is known to get hurt so Yeldon is one play away from full volume

Yeldon was pretty underwhelming last year with 20ish carries a gsme, and he won't get that this year. I'm avoiding him, personally.

Closer to 15 carries a game at 4.1ypc. Also, 3 recs per game. He averaged 13ppg in PPR in 12 games.

I don't think he breakthroughs this season, but do not avoid is harsh for a guy going 8-10 rounds in 12-team PPR.

Thank you for posting this. A real eye opener that I need to start doing some research

I will say that I am not a huge fan of Dez and DT in top 5. I owned Dez last year and he cost me my league between he and Romo. To much injury prone-ness in that duo and I am not sold that Dallas has a competent backup yet.

DT is good but alot of other targets for Butt-fumble and/or rookie guy to throw to. No loyalties.

Again, grateful for the list. Those are just not my guys this year me thinks.

Dez & Romo missing games last year is an outlier if you look over their career.

Before last year, Romo had averaged 31 TD passes a year the 4 years previous.

Before last year, Bryant hadnt missed a game in 3 years. (91/1300/12TD average)

I dont think people realize how bad Payton was last year. Mark Sanchez is a major upgrade there. And if they are force to play the rookie, he likely is too. Peyton had one of the lowest, if not the lowest QB rating in the league last year. He was terrible and couldnt throw the ball downfield.


I think Denver's D will be good this year, but not quite as good. Their D last year allowed their offense to be more methodical. I think they'll have to open it up more this year, and Sanchez can get the ball downfield to DT88 a lot better than Peyton.

Rawls looks a little low since you seem confident in what he can do. I know he is coming off of injury but I don't think Prosise will eat as much into his work as be provided with his own constant reps: a few rushes, getting him the ball in space et al.

Hopefully him and Charles fall. There is no such thing as a RB that doesn't get hurt, so I'll take my chances.

Rawls will move up into the top 30 if he makes training camp like he says he will

I picked him up as it is a keeper league o stash for this year. I had a shite year and needed to do something.

I looked at what he was doing it and tried to place a future value on it.

I like the Jags offense, I know they have not done anything yet but the potential is there with Bortles IMO



Maybe you follow Jags closer? any insight into the RB position as for as the depth chart is concerned? I am all ears.

Jarvis Landry was the #8 scoring WR in my PPR league last year. Guy is severely undervalued. Even if his 110 receptions falls some, his TD production should go up.

Wasn't really a direct reaction to your thread, just an overall observation.

I typically see him ranked in the 18-28 range for WRs alone, when he was top 10 in PPR last year.

This is full point PPR, right? It seems pretty similar to a 0.5ppr I'm building up since my league just decided to change today from standard. Was so ready, now I'm blind

stays pretty much the same. I think its going to be a decent year for RBs, but WR's still rule, even in .5 PPR
