1. Not huge on carrying two qbs. I would have just went Big Ben and then streamed if his home/road difference popped up as an issue.

2. Starting backs are nice, but the bench is pretty worrisome. Penny might get it together and provide a great 3rd back.

3. Thomas and Hill should be good, I worry about jj and Crabtree declining metrics and I prefer younger homerun shots. Jj and Crabtree being in new offenses could be an issue as well but depending on round selected could be very good.

4. Like Eifert until he is hurt.

I feel like round drafted would help some on judging the team.

Anyways I think the starters should be good and Crabtree or Penny should end up being a good flex. I like my bench to have a little bit more home run pop.

Thanks for the responses - If i felt like i knew enough to give an educated reply I would reciprocate.

Matt Ryan was my pick right before i picked defense / kicker - all the top defenses had been taken too. Just felt like having a reliable back-up given Ben's age/injury history. And maybe Ryan can have a huge year with all their weapons - but not expecting that.

Since I didn't do any research except in the middle of the draft - i was just trying to go for safer picks that wouldn't get me beat. I usually work the waiver wire pretty hard.

Henry I like, should get pretty good volume barring injury and think he could have a big year. Plus good to have some Bama blood on the team. decided to load up on some extra rbs just in case though.

Crabtree was more of a safety pick as the only guy in Baltimore. Nelson was picked up very late.

I'm pretty sure the draft went like this (also rb's went fast) - I was in the 12/1 position

Fournette/Thomas 1/2
Hill / Henry 3/4
Crabtree / Coleman 5/6
Penny / Ben 7/8
eifert / nelson 9/10
chubb / matt ryan 11/12
cardinals / matt bryant 13/14
