lynch as your RB2 is tough. Love D Thom, I think this is the year he returns to greatness. If Trubisky can get his stuff together, Robinson could be the steal of the draft for alot of people.

Got added to a league yesterday and drafted last night - no research or anything but I think I did ok.

0.5 PPR and 6 pt TD

Qb: big Ben/ matt Ryan
Rb: Fournette / Derrick Henry / Tevin Coleman Rashad Penny / Nick Chubb
WR: Michael Thomas / Tyreke Hill / Michael Crabtree / Jordy Nelson
TE: Eifert
D: Cardinals
K: Matt Bryant

Hoping one of those rookie rb's becomes the guy and that Crabtree end up being a steal as the main man in Baltimore. I'll ride eifert till he gets hurt and then just have to play waivers

RB is fine if Penny can emerge. I don't like Henry this year due to basically only getting 1st and 2nd down work. I'm avoiding him like the plague, but if you like him, that's your pick and it's not bad.

QB I like a lot. I think Ben does really well this year. I'm not a fan of drafting 2 QBs, but it is what it is.

WR i love Thomas, but hate Tyreek. Hes so big play dependent it scares me away, but he definitely can do fine as a WR2. I think Crabtree and Jordy are washed up, but could definitely be wrong.

Eifert is great. Play him until hes inevitably injured and then be ready to play that waiver wire.




0.5 PPR, 12-team. I picked from the 6 spot in this draft.

QB - Matt Stafford
WR - Keenan Allen, Amari Cooper, Jarvis Landry, Cooper Kupp, DJ Moore, Mike Williams
RB - Kamara, Joe Mixon, Dion Lewis, Kerryon Johnson, Aaron Jones, Nick Chubb
TE - Trey Burton
D/ST - Saints
Kicker - Jake Elliot

I'm supremely happy with this team.

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.

That’s really good out of the 6 spot.

1. Stafford is someone I’ve been targeting late, I think he will have a big year

2. Love Allan and think cooper should have a bounce back. Love the juice and Kupp as possession guys and DJ as a big potential guy along with Williams

3. Running backs love Kamara, Mixon with great potential though cincy offense scares me a bit but guessing off of roster construction you didn’t pay too much for him. I love kerryon and the stash of Jones in GB. I have found myself taking a GB back late, either ty or Jones. Lewis could be good in ppr and as the counter to Henry. I don’t really like Chubb this year but I think with your roster construction he will be fine.

4. I like the Burton/saints D/ Elliot picks. Burton is in a good situation, some risk but I think big upside. I like the saints D early schedule before streaming. Elliot might take a step back if philly has a lot of injuries but then again it could lead to more long fgs for him.

Your roster is really solid though I like it. It’s got really good balance between steady guys and some big boom potential.

I like rivers on the bench even though I don’t like carrying 2 qb but if Carson isn’t ready it’s probably not bad for you.

Gurley, freeman, jay should be a good grouping. I think freeman will be a beast this year. As much as Miller disgust me with his yards per carry, Watson can make him an rb1 which is crazy. Also looks like you got a good deal on penny so you can wait and see if he can over take Carson.

Odell and Baldwin should be good but baldwin being hurt is somewhat of a concern.

I think your bench wrs need help though, Jordy might deliver but in a new offense new qb. I would feel better with a bigger home run threat on your bench.

Overall though it’s one of the better rosters that contains Gronk. I think i would have went another wr instead of baby hands Doyle since you have Gronk and a 2nd qb

Fell to me in the third, actually. I couldn't pass that up. I'm hopeful and expectant of a big year.

Chubb was my last RB/WR pick. He has looked good in the preseason to me, but really hes a stash I expect to drop in the first week or two.

Really the only player I'm in love with that I missed was Corey Davis. May be able to work a trade for him.

Yea it would be hard to pass Mixon up in the third.

Chubb isn’t a bad last bench guy.

For a 12 team league, this looks solid. Only concern would be Chris Thompson, but Kerryon Johnson may end up being the bell cow RB in Detroit.

Jones on the bench. I think Thompson should be ok for a few weeks. That is a nice roster for a 12 team

10 Team PPR. QB gets 4 points for TDs. All others are regular scoring. Starting lineup consists of : 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, 1 TE, 1 PK, 1 Def

QBs : Big Ben, Cam Newton
RBs : Dalvin Cook, Jay Ajai, Mark Ingram, Jamaal Williams
WRs : Brown, Baldwin, Marquise Lee, Stills, Doctson
TEs : Kelce, OJ Howard
K : Butker
Def : Vikings

Picking 6 out of 10 grabbed Brown first and Cook 2nd. Will have to hit waiver wire for WR. Like the first 2 ( Brown, Baldwin). Was hoping for Fuller but he went 2 pics before selected again.


This looks like a well balanced roster. No real weak spots anywhere.

I actually traded Emmanuel Sanders for thompson straight up. I figured having Thompson was a larger upgrade than the downgrade from sanders to Goodwin at my 4th WR.

I know I lost the trade, but I’m okay with doing that if it improves my team. I kept striking out at RB when it came to my pick, so I kept going after WRs. The upside RBs were there later in the draft, though.

Thanks for the analysis

You did well here at RB. You will likely have the position advantage 12/13 weeks in a 10 team league.

I love Baldwin as a WR1 this season. I also really like Diggs.. he’s a mid WR2 for me with major upside if Cousins likes him as much as I am hearing.

You’re going to have to make some moves or avoid injury, as you’ll be behind most at QB and TE

Do you draft with blind simple people?

I hope this is a keeper league, otherwise I have no clue how you ended up with all 3 of Fournette, Kamara, and CMC...and THEN have Balwin and Diggs at WR.

It's not a keeper league. Auction draft and I just sat back and let people spend their money. Fournette and CMC were put up later when a lot of people didn't have the cash to bid them up.

My sleeper here is Mahomes. I think he has the potential to explode. Smith was the safe option, as he's good for ~4,000yds, 22-25tds, and minimal turnovers. He hasn't thrown more than 8int since 2010.
