Thanks I've put some work into finding the right team mix. Having a hard time figuring out who to drop for a backup QB though

Solid team. WRs look great. But it looks like you drafted too many in a cluster. I'd suggest trading away one of Evans or Matthews for a RB2. WR2 for RB2 pretty even trade. And Robinson and Brown will most likely emerge as high WR3- mid WR2 this year, so you won't be losing much there. I would trade Evans before Matthews, I think Matthews has star potential this year. Not thrilled with Witten either, but he's solid and consistent, so your WRs should cover him

Not a bad team. I drafted Gates too, I think he's the man that never dies. Should come back and give you at least top 10 value over the course of his shortened season. And til then SFJ should be fine. Love your WRs, Alshon has high upside if his injury is ok, Landry has sleeper pot as well as royal and Funchess. RB2 is your weak point (seems like that for everyone though). I would try to trade Stewart for someone else, I'm not buying him with 1. His injury history, 2. Overall lack of production, 3. Panthers bad o line, 4. Cam newton rushes too often, especially near the goal line

Ok here's my analysis. No expert but I've put some time into learning the game in the last 8 years.

QB - I love drew, but I think we run the ball too much and pass too little this year. Mid to low top 10
RB - Murray and Gordon are both high upside but low floor. Rookies don't always pan out first year, and RBs that have as many carries as Murray did last year tend to get injured or have seriously down years (wear and tear) and he has an injury history already. I'd try and trade one of them for a more consistent player.
WR - Odell - great job there. He's a high end WR 1 in my book and you got him in third round. Potential for sophomore slump, but highly unlikely. Should carry your team. Edelman is rough as a WR2, but Vincent Jackson may fill in there well.
TE - no one has good TEs this year (unless you took gronk). Wait til the season to judge them, but I like Rudolph. He's been consistent before and I think he has high upside this year. TEs like him often perform well when they have play action passing, and they will with AP and Teddy

Overall I'd say B- for a 12 team. I don't think you got anything more than appropriate value for your picks, but I don't think your team is bad by any means

I think the draft eating system is based off of value at your picks according to ADP. Technically the autodraft system takes the best player available according to ADP (with respect to filling your team with the correct proportion of positions), so autodraft teams will grade out really well on the automatic team grade systems. That has no baring on whether they pan out though, ADP can be wildly wrong when players lack name recognition and people have to follow the ADP charts to draft.

You're good at QB. Bradford is my QB1 in my ten team league. Eagles QBs have outscored all QBs outside of two (manning and Rodgers I think) over the last 3 years. He has super high upside and I think he should be your starter.
RB is good for 12 team. I like CJ a lot because I expect the team to continue what they did down the stretch last year and I don't think Hillman is a huge threat to anything. At that spot, you could have come up with Lesean McCoy or Demarco Murray or Matt forte, who I see as much bigger risks. Gordon has high upside, and Bernard is a solid backup.
WR is your weak point. Evans isn't a legit #1 IMO as long as VJax is still good. Allen worries me based on his performance last year. And I hate Decker. Jets have an abysmal passing game and I don't trust anyone on their team. Davante Parker has great upside and may take over for Decker by mid season though
TE you are the best of the pack. Pulling down CJ and Gronk in the same league is a real win for you. I don't think I've seen anyone with CJ also have Gronk fall to them. He should carry your team and make up for some of your shortcomings at other positions.

Flip Allen or Decker for someone else and I think you're good to go

12 team, 2 Keeper, Non-PPR league. Standard line up with a Flex. Keepers were Rodgers and Brown. Opted to keep Brown over Marshawn Lynch. Not too thrilled with my team, hoping Martin can return to 2 seasons ago. Got Doug Martin in the 7th Round and Garcon in the 11th.

QB: Aaron Rodgers, Andy Dalton
RB: Jonathan Stewart, T.J. Yeldon, Doug Martin, Joique Bell
WR: Antonio Brown, Mike Wallace, Larry Fitzgerald, Roddy White, Pierre Garcon
TE: Dwayne Allen
PK: Matt Prater
TD: New York Jets

This is my first ever PPR league so let me know how I did and where I may need to improve. I feel like i'm a little weak at RB unless these guys maximize their potential this year. I had the 12th pick in the draft fwiw and I will list them in the order I selected them.

Julio Jones
Odell Beckham Jr
DeAndre Hopkins
Ameer Abdullah
Jarvis Landry
CJ Spiller
Giovanni Bernard
Todd Gurley
Pierre Garcon
Zach Ertz
Eddie Royal
Devonta Freeman
Markus Wheaton
Philip Rivers
Blair Walsh
St Louis Rams



Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

I think he has top 5 potential, health is the question. Plus, we have never really gotten the chance to see what he can be in this league.

Gordon has high upside


I also think he has a low floor.

quote:

Bernard is a solid backup.


Maybe, last year with Hill only partially taking over the spot Bernard didn't do much with his opportunities.

I think I'm fairly weak at RB.

Preaching to the choir. If it was PPR I would be hopeful about Kendall Wright. In standard, not so much.

quote:

TE you are the best of the pack.


I feel better about it with Brady playing. Words that have literally never crossed my mind before.

quote:

Allen or Decker


Everyone is pretty thin. I guess I could move Gronk and Allen. If the value is right on the TE/WR I get back.

Maybe I am only having trouble because this was my other 12 team draft. PPR.

Tannehill
Hill
Morris
Julio
Golden Tate
Jordan Matthews
Larry Donnell(last round)
Flex: Landry
Parkey
Dolphin's D

Bench:
Chris Ivory
Davante Adams
Isaiah Crowell
Allen HUrns
Danny Woodhead
Blake Bortles

29. TY Hilton (wr)
32. Deandre Hopkins (wr)
49. Greg Olsen (te)
52. Chris Ivory (rb)

It's solid, but not spectacular. You don't have a WR1, and you dont have quite enough firepower to trade for one either. You should compete though. Tannehill has a ton of upside, and your WRs are at least solid. I like your trio of first 3 Rbs, if McCoy can get, and stay, healthy. You should be in the playoff mix.

I need help. This team has me flip-flopping between so many different options. Let me hear your take! Standard scoring

QB: Eli or Romo

Who would you select for the 2 RB spots and the 1 Flex: Shady, Chris Ivory, Yeldon, Jordan Matthews, Jarvis

I'm leaning toward Shady, Ivory, and Yeldon or Matthews

Mike Evans
CJ Spiller
Grego Olsen
Jarvis Landry
Matt RYan
Joseph Randle
Devonta Freeman
DeSean Jackson
Torrey Smith
Sam Bradford
Buffalo D
Joique Bell
Connor Barth, who was released by DEN, so I released him
Matt Bryant - Picked up in place of Barth

Week 1 lineup looking like:

Matt Ryan
Dez Bryant
Mike Evans
Forte
Spiller
Olsen
Landry – Flex
Bryant
Buffalo

Wrong thread brosef, but I'll bite.

Romo

RBs. I would go with Shady and Ivory, at least, until we see what the O-line looks like in Jacksonville when it means something. If Shady can't go, that kind of makes your decision.

Flex: Matthews, Yeldon, Landry in that order.

12 Team Keeper: If it's a 6 team playoff, you're probably on the bubble. Best QB and WR, but RB, TE, K, and D/ST are vanilla. Picking the right matchups for the flex and other WR's will be critical.

0-100 scale; 80

Your WR situation is elite. (could be used for trade bait.)
Your QB situation would be great if he had an OL worth a damn, but he doesn't.
Your RB situation could be good, or awful, depending on how Spiller and Gurley do, I'm in the same boat.
I like your TE, good pick.
I think the Rams will be OK, but IDK for sure.

With 2 Flex, I think you have a playoff team if the RB's even do somewhat well.

0-100 scale: 83

You have a playoff team. Great QB. Solid RB's. ODB is great, other WR's are decent. TE situation is fair, will be better when Gates gets back. Solid Defense.

Playoff team. If McCoy is healthy and fits in well with his new OC (which he should, they hand picked him,) then your team is very strong. Landry and Quick were good late round additions. Bradford that late was a steal, he'll do big things for Chip Kelly. Olsen is going to be a top3 TE this year. ARI is a top5 defense. Gos is a legendary kicker. Overall just a really solid team, but McCoy needs to show up for you.

scale 1-100; 85
