ETA: Completely unrelated, but I had no clue Yeldon was so successful at Alabama. 4th in most yards ahead of Ingram, Richardson and Lacy.
His fumbling and injury issues soured him just a bit to other fans and even to some Alabama fans. But when healthy, he's absolutely amazing.

Man, I wasn't even thinking about Lacy. Would be tough to grab both him and Julio though in most leagues.

Unless you eat boogers, stay away. I never got it.

Looking at APD, it's easily doable in an 8 team league. More than 8 teams and it wouldn't be realistic.

Hey bro I was the same way until last season. I downloaded the ESPN fantasy app. This year it seems even easier to use than last. And I don't play with friends; just random internet people for now. I set about 20 people in my queue and the basically let the computer pick for me from there.

It's actually kind of amusing. Just you something else to check on during a Sunday.

Have fun.

Some Fantasy 101s I think most would agree with:

- Don't draft a Kicker or Defense until your last two picks.

- Generally, I like to wait on QBs and TEs, as do a lot of others. Somebody like Romo, Tannehill ,Rivers in the 8,9,10+ round will serve you just fine.

- Draft for upside later in the draft, consistency early on.

- Some sites that are good to use as tools (Important: "TOOLS". Not the end-all-be-all) for beginners:
-- FantasyPros.com. Rankings, articles, "who do I start" advice and much more.

-- reddit.com/r/fantasyfootball

-- download the "Sleeperbot" app on your phone.

Other than that good luck, and remember, it's just a game. Have fun with it.

Bro, don't let the computer pick. Pick all of them yourself next time. I understand an autodraft at first but once you halfway understand what is going on, pick them all yourself. More fun

I picked them myself until all those I queued were either gone or on my team. After that I stopped giving a frick and moved on.
