14 Team League Draft help

So I'm in a family FF league with 14 teams in it. Scoring format is PPR, QB's get 6 points per TD. I've been doing mock drafts and my strategy has been taking 2 WR/ 2 RB in the first four rounds and landing a guy like Stafford/RGIII in the 5th round. RB gets way too thin after round 4 so I'm wanting to get my 2 starters early.

The problem is I know none of my family members will draft like people are in these mock drafts. Last year 5-6 QB's went in the first round.. So I'm trying to decide if I should stick to my strategy and focus on getting solid RB's/WR's in the early rounds or am I basically forced to go QB in the first 2 rounds now? Anybody have any experience in leagues like this? Any advice is appreciated.

Stick to your strategy but if a top QB falls to you. You take him.

The deeper the league the faster rb's get thin and fast. I'd try to knock that out first and wait on a qb... unless there's a top qb you really want. If not, I'd stick to waiting for one in the fifth.

Do you know where you're drafting yet? If you are picking on the back end, you will probably get a rb that you shouldn't. You don't want to pick the 6 best fantasy qb in the first round. Let everyone else reach and sit back for a Stafford or Romo type and load up on wrs, rbs or Graham.

We won't know the draft order until 1 hour prior to drafting. I'm hoping for a late pick so I can get a high value RB that shouldn't be there. I just don't want to have to roll with an Eli or Andy Dalton at QB so it's gonna be tough to stick it out and wait. I'm thinking surely a Tony Romo will be available in Round 4-5

If everyone else springs for QBs, mop up the value on RB/WR as it falls to you.
