Keep it how we did it last year with FAs. If people want to add/drop based on toto blurbs or preseason action, go for it.

Good with that as well. I got Dion Lewis after a Reddit post saying he got the 3rd down job last year- that turned out well

Players I was targeting but were chosen before I had a chance.

Also, Gordon is one I feel good about this year. He was too expensive last year, but the guy is talented and I'm sure the Chargers are going to want to see some ROI there so he'll have plenty of opportunity.

Ajayi is another I like as well, thought he looked good with his chances last year.

I think one of those pops.

I wanted Dion Lewis in that round, but he got taken. Maclin isn't a bad flex option though.

I'll do a quick analysis on your squad and mine:

Bulldog:
QB: You're putting a lot of stock in Winston with no backup.
RB: Doug was a grab the guy you like, no issues on doing that. Bell is the #1 back if he stays clean and healthy after suspension. Foster is a good homerun case in Gase's system. Hill is solid upside RB4.
WR: I like each of your WRs, but I don't see that stud. You need Edelman to match last years ppg or Benjamin to make a jump from 14ppg into elite after a year sidelined.
TE: Nothing flashy, but venerable Gates and Witten should be servicable.
Flex: You should be solid, but not spectacular here with 4 playable RBs and 5 playable WRs.
Conclusion: Don't hate the squad outside of QB. Winston needs to roll or you work magic QBBC. RBs and a WR breaking out will define this teams success.

Drizz:
QB: QB is weak. Eli has never been an elite FF QB. He did have his best season in 2015, but does that repeat? He has upside with McAdoo taking over as HC and up-tempo offense, but it's Eli fricking Manning. Fitzmagic was barely re-signed by his own team after a career year.
RB: This is where this squad shines... just kidding. By far the worst RBs in the league. Each have some standalone value, but someone needs to hit it big or toast.
WR: Mixed bad. Do you have recency bias or drafting on floor/ceiling? WR1/2 in Dez and Cobb both injured and all-time lows last year. Is Dez 18+ppg or 9ppg? Is Cobb 17+ppg or 12ppg? Time will tell. Depth is good IMO with Juice, Floyd and White.
TE: Gronk. 5 consecuative years avg 17+ppg. Injury/Brady suspension concerns.
Flex: Should be solid Flex with Landry/Floyd, maybe White.
Conclusion: This is a high upside, low floor team. RBs need to define roles and score points, WRs need to regain form, QB needs to build on last season.

Yeah I agree with only having Winston.

I was going for Big Ben as my starter. I was also thinking about Romo as a fall back for Winston.

Romo--- best OL in the NFL, stud receiver, possession TE, and should be a top 5 running attack in NFL. Romo stays healthy I see him as a low end QB 1 or a 2nd tier QB.

CE:
QB: A.A.Ron had a down year with Jordy out, FAT Eddie whole swallowing the original Fat Eddie, Cobb not acting as a WR1 and injured, along with Camp heroes Adams and Janis face-planting. Yet he scored 22+ppg. This is a guy that has scored 26+ppg 3 times in the last 5 years including 32+ in 2011.
RB: Looks good on paper, but I'm not buying. All Day is a 16ppg guy, but that's his likely ceiling now. Forte could be in a RBBC, Mathews always hurt. Riddick, Prosise and Blount offer depth, but not high upside.
WR: Also not buying. I like Keenan, but 20+ppg pace last year isn't sustainable. But he's not the issue here... Lockett, Sterling, Torrey, Smiff, Boyd would make a great life story docudrama, but you're looking for a WR2/WR3 here. There is upside here, I don't see the ppg.
TE: Love Olsen. Good solid pick, won't repeat numbers but Dexter is ok.
Flex: I don't see a high-end flex here.
Conclusion: Just like all teams, you need guys to stay healthy and hit that upside. A.A.Ron, All Day and Keenan will keep you competitive. I just don't see the homeruns here.

I don't have time tonight to do all teams. I'll do yours next and pick up tomorrow.

It's just my opinions which are meaningless. Heck, I'll trade squads with any of you.

I don't see a really bad team or an elite team. Seems like everyone did solid.

Yeah, everyone pick up your players. I've said that a few times already but these slaps don't listen, m8.
