I have already done a short preview on War's team earlier in the thread. The previews will go in order that I find the rosters in the thread. For the rest of these previews, I will sometimes use these terms:
GK1 = top 10 GK
DEF1 = top 10 DEF
DEF2 = 11-20 DEF
DEF3 = 21-20 DEF
etc
Still need to do a preview for Sticky, rdw, BPG, Tigerstark, and myself.

Ladies and gentlemen, your 2015/16 Dodgy Flappers:
GK: Maarten Stekelenburg - South
GK: Tim Krul - New
Def: Ryan Bertrand - South
Def: Luke Shaw - ManU
Def: Scott Dann - CP
Def - Tyrone Mings - Bourn
MF: David Silva - MC
MF: Theo Walcott - Ars
MF: Georginio Wijnaldum - New
MF: Jason Puncheon - CP
MF: Riyad Mahrez - LC
Fwd: Bafetimbi Gomis - Swa
Fwd: Jay Rodriguez - South
Fwd: Mame Biram Diouf - Stoke
Fwd: Papiss Cisse - New
Southampton scored big fantasy on defense last year, so I would have to assume that Stekelenburg should fare just fine. Etm will need to keep an eye on Forster's recovery, but I assume he will be out for months more.
Ryan Bertrand was the fifth highest scoring DEF last year, and I think he should be a DEF1 again even without Forster and Clyne at Liverpool. Besides that, I do not trust that defense at all.
Silva was a smart pick, but I find him frustrating. Silva's points often seem to come in clumps, which may not be great for this format, but his 191 points last year tied for fourth out of all players. I enjoyed owning Walcott in 2012-2013, but he only has 123 points in the last two injury-plagued campaigns. Puncheon is always a good bet for sure-handed fantasy points. Mahrez went nuts in week 1.
Gomis has a pretty good upside, but Jay Rodriguez is a big, big question mark with his health. The health of the strikers is necessary for this team to make it to the top. The most underrated fantasy player for etm is Diouf who finished as FWD1 last year.
Bottom line: I prefer War's team so far, but a lot of it is probably because etm and I had different on targets in the early rounds.

I had to hold off on drafting Midfielders late on after realizing how many I had already drafted
I would contend that Courtois should be the highest rated fantasy keeper this year, but there is minimal separation among the top goalies. Last year, only 13 points were separated between Fabianski GK #1 and De Gea GK #5.
Was Wait a homer with Coleman? Maybe, but he is a true DEF1. Azpilicueta actually outscored Coleman by two points last year. If Bellerin plays enough, then this would round out a very, very good defense.
I think Sterling has a very high chance of being a fantasy bust in a crowded City midfield. Sterling played 3,047 minutes out of a possible 3,420 last year, and I would expect that number to be closer to 2,500 if he stays in the regular rotation with Yaya and Silva. Chadli was damn good last year, and I like him at pick 3.5. Walters always comes through in fantasy. He has 109, 140, 141, 83, and 125 in his last five seasons. Payet has huge upside. At some point in the season, I hope someone accidentally picks up MID Poyet (West Ham United) thinking they stole a star in free agency.
Costa could lead the league in scoring if his hamstrings were not terrible. I still love the pick because he could stay fit and have that RVP type season where he is far and away the best fantasy player. Sakho and Naismith are solid guys to get some guaranteed points.
Bottom line: I like this team a lot, and I think Wait realized how easy it can be to nab strong MID. I think this is a balanced team that will probably be one of my favorites that I review.

Ayoze Perez - Newcastle
I feel like Mick has a couple guys that he gets every year, and I am pretty sure Adrian is one of them. His 142 points last year were pretty great on a pleasant surprise in West Ham.
Zabaleta was City's best defender last year for fantasy, but he only scored 106, which is less than you would like for a top team. No one else is that exciting, but if Cedric Soares will start for Southampton, then he could be right there with Bertrand and Fonte. Is Mick the only person to ever own Bacuna in this league?
I am loving the Yaya pick. He is a year removed from being the best player in the Prem, both real and fantasy. Well worth the risk at 3.2. Depay has elite MID1 potential, but I am also wary of his playing time. Saido Mane is awesome. How long will Mirallas be out?
Aguero is a sexy pick and is easily the top forward, but groin injuries keep him from being someone who could be a fantasy soccer god. Sure, Bony may have been over-drafted, but Mick will look smart when Aguero gets hurt and Bony starts scoring a goal a game. Ayoze Perez seems like another Mick special.
Bottom line: I am sometimes unimpressed by some of the lineups that Mick puts out, but I would argue that he may be the best manager in the league. He has a title under his belt and seems to be one of the best on waivers.

F Shinji Okazaki (LEI)
F Graziano Pellè (SOU)
F Harry Kane (TOT)
*Players in bold are projected starting XI
GC grabbed two of the top three keepers from last year, but I fail to understand why he spent an 8th round pick on a backup keeper. Maybe he knows something we don't.
Alderweireld, Richards, and Tabanou is not anything I can fap to, but they should be serviceable. Toby could be a solid DEF2 if he gets enough minutes. Cresswell is the star of the back line, but regression from West Ham defenders is a real possibility.
This is a talented midfield led by Jordan Henderson. Bolasie is a really great player, and I think he should exceed his total from last year of 132. Ki Sung-yueng was not getting away from GC after his strong 129 point showing in 2014-2015.
Harry Kane was worth the pick IMO. He scored 191 points last year and took GC to second in the league before an unlikely late season collapse. Pelle fell off a strong start, so I am wary of that pick. It seemed like he even fell out of favor at one point.
Bottom line: GC has finished in the top three in both years of this when I have been the commish. While a title still escapes him, he is the shrewdest manager in the league and always on top of the game.

I have a plan.....not sure if it will pan out though.
