I am coming into this year totally unprepared. I'm drafting 11 out of 12 in my big money league, anyone that has been doing mocks care to share who I realistically should be targeting? I'm going to try and do a few today, but I know you guys have probably been all over it.

I'm drafting 11 out of 12 in my big money league, anyone that has been doing mocks care to share who I realistically should be targeting? Standard or ppr? What are the starters? In standard I'm targeting CJA/Julio as my 1/2 from pretty much any spot in the back third, but would also accept any of Dez/DT/OBJ (assuming that none of the elite RBs fall to you). In the next turn you can sometimes land Gore/Evans but be willing to settle for Morris/Nuke. From there the 5/6 turn is the ideal spot to nab one of Olsen or Kelce, but failing that one of Keenan/Watkins is usually available. Ideal starting rounds for you in standard are probably CJ/Julio/Gore/Evans/Olsen, after which I might consider reaching for Ryan just to have a ridiculous starting lineup (if either your WRs or RBs require "settling" as described above, I would probably go with one of Keenan/Watkins/Yeldon/Ellington at 6) Forever_Peace fucked around with this message at 16:42 on Sep 2, 2015 |

What do you think he'd give you for just David Johnson? Honore_De_Balzac posted:Matthews is worth more than that. Since in general it sounds like I'm right in being high on Matthews and hesitating, I reached out to him to find out his exact need. His current RB/WR situation: RBs/bench: D. Murray, D. Martin, J. Stewart, Roy Helu, Reggie Bush, Ryan Mathews, Bernard Pierce, Jonathan Grimes, Charcandrick West WRs/bench: G. Tate, M. Evans, E. Decker, Marques Colston, Kenny Britt, Donte Moncrief, Aaron Dobson, Jeff Janis, Breshad Perriman, Kevin White Honestly there's not much there I want. He also has four QBs and five TEs on his bench but again, not much I want (MAYBE Brock Osweiler or Jimmy Garoppolo - I have Tannehill, Eli and Johnny Football). He threw a message on the group chat we use that he wants trades for WRs so I'm not sure I can swing bench/youth RBs for bench/youth WRs with him.

Just switched to a keeper league this year. Everybody forgot about Jordy Nelson. I drafted 9/10 so I believe I have 2nd waiver slot for week 1 and can grab him, who do I drop: Darren Sproles Owen Daniels Stevie Johnson .5 PPR, mostly standard elsewise. We've got an IR slot but I'll also be holding on to Perriman already

I'm guessing you'll be looking at Demarco Murray or CJ Anderson as first round RBs, maybe Gronk, and maybe D. Thomas or Megatron as first round WRs. Possibly Andrew Luck if you want to go there. Is it PPR or standard? At 11/12 I'd go WR -> RB at the turn in order: Antonio Brown (LOL if he's still there, but still)/ Julio / Dez / D. Thomas -> D. Murray / CJ Anderson / Forte (I'm personally not high on him this year) / Hill. But again it depends on PPR/standard. Amergin fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Sep 2, 2015 |

You said the other guy loaded up on QBs and TEs, but unless you did too, I'm confused how your draft went!

For late round WRs, (9-13) I like Eddie Royal/Stevie Johnson/Brian Quick For handcuff RBs with high upside, target Ronnie Hillman, Matt Jones -- you can get both in VERY late rounds

If anyone watched Oakland/Arizona like I did last night there is a lot to fear about any Cardinal not named Larry Fitzgerald. That line sucked. Carson sucked. The freaking RAIDERS ate them up.

I was really impressed with Khalil Mack, that's for sure. I had Ellington last year and he did not turn into Jamaal Charles like I thought he would. I also like John Brown, Fitz is in a new position that caters to his strengths, Carson is healthy. Micahel Floyd, David Johnson and Momah all sound promising. You'd think this was the year to own a Cardinal but they played Yakkety Sax-worthy and my expectations are tempered.

On the flip side the Raiders impressed. I have a feeling as a Chiefs fan I'm going to be dealing with Amari Cooper breaking my heart constantly for years to come. He was out there toying with Patrick Peterson of all people, he gets open at will.

Turned down the trade as the guy responded with "I want a starting WR1 for this year" and there's nothing on his team I want for Matthews. Thanks for the input, all!

I got screwed on TE in my 14 man standard scoring auction because people were all over my value picks, and I ended up with Vernon Davis. Should I roll with him or drop him for one of Charles Clay, Heath Miller, or Ladarius Green? I thought about trying to pick one of them up and hang on to Davis just to see what happens, but I don't think there's anyone on my bench I can afford to drop instead of Davis: Alfred Blue Arian Foster Kendall Wright Danny Woodhead Michael Floyd David Cobb Just saw Matt Jones is available as a free agent also....

I recently drafted my team and took the strategy of going RB/WR heavy early and then grabbing a QB long after everyone else. It's a weird keeper/franchise setup where you keep 6 guys from year to year (starting this year). Other than that it is 10 team, 1ppr. We start 1QB, 2WR, 2RB, 1TE and 2FLX I drafted Tanny to be my QB because I figured he is younger and trending up. He might be a decent keeper option if he blows up this year. But then I've seen how well Bradford is playing so I decided to drop my kicker and grab him, too. So now I have two QBs on my roster and I need to drop someone by week 1 to start a kicker. My team is as follows: QB: Tanny, Bradford RB: Lacy, Jeremy Hill, J-Stew, Ivory, and TJ Yeldon WR: AJ Green, Jarvis Landry, Jordan Matthews, Garcon, Michael Floyd, Boldin, Funchess TE: Jordan Cameron K: N/A and 3 IDP guys For various reasons (most of all positional scarcity) I like all my RBs so I'm hesitant to drop one of them. I feel like Michael Floyd is my most droppable player given John Brown's emergence. I'll likely wait until last minute to actually drop someone but I was seeing if anyone has any suggestions.

I'd say its between Floyd and Funchess and considering it's a keeper and Funchess is a rookie and a (lol) #1 WR, I'd drop Floyd without hesitation. In full PPR, you're unlikely to start any of them over Landry, Matthews, or even Garcon and Boldin.
