    TE
    Zach Ertz (8th)
    Travis Kelce (14th)
    I like it. Nice depth at RB. Hyde in the 10th is awesome. Rg3 and cutler is a nice combo for not having an elite QB. Marshall is a beast and although Terrence Williams had a poor preseason, I think he's going to be good. Good value with him. Obviously te is the weak spot.

    Damn S&L, 12/12 in a Keeper league is rough.

    I agree, you shouldve kept McCoy and been able to get a different WR instead of having to fill that spot with Vareen, then get a QB like Romo in the 8th.

    Above was my first draft of the year. Just had a 12 team non-PPR league draft, got the #1 overall.

    RB - Lesean McCoy
    RB - Gio Bernard
    WR - Julio Jones

    Bench - Kelvin Benjamin
    Bench - Jeremy Hill
    Bench - Carson Palmer
    Bench - Bryce Brown
    Bench - Heath Miller

    Not really a fan of some of my bench picks. Started to get myself in a couple bye week conundrums so I went with bench players I feel comfortable with so that's why the double up on both my teams. Not a fan of taking Heath Miller second to last but Cameron's week 4 bye didn't make me feel confident an unknown TE would emerge that's better than Miller by that time. At least in the 10 team league I've got some options.

    Who do I start in my flex position:

    Terrance Williams (WR - DAL) or Steven Jackson (RB - ATL)
  • Dr. KnOiTaLL
    TWill for sure

    I'm stuck between Le'Veon Bell and CJ Spiller.

    Edit...that's a lie. I mean between Spiller and Fred Jackson. Obviously both for Buffalo, will be dropping one after this week. I also have MJD on the bench. Thinking about moving him in.
  • Laley23
    I'd start MJD. At the moment, he is their every down back. I don't think it will last all year, but you know the Bills RBs are splitting carries.
  • bigdaddy2003
    Why don't you think MJD will be their back all season?
  • Laley23
    bigdaddy2003;1650343 wrote:Why don't you think MJD will be their back all season?
    Cause he is old and worn down. I think he misses some time and eventually McFadden gets some carries.

    I've got to agree. Keep in mind that McFadden is only 26, and while he's spent a lot of time on the DL over the course of his career, he's still a great talent when healthy. I'm fairly certain they will both get a good amount of touches throughout the season, assuming they both stay healthy.
  • bigdaddy2003
    I have to see Run DMC stay healthy to believe it.

    This might be the worst collection of RBs I've ever seen.

    Please tell me that is from a 16 team league, otherwise, it might be one of the worst 12 team rosters I've seen in a while lol.

    Who the heck did you draft in the 3rd and 4th rounds?

    If this is a 12 team league, and he drafted around 7th, I can see this team...he took Calvin at 7, AJ Green at 17 (rd 2)...

    If this is the case, according to the current ADP, the best available RBs left when he would pick in Rd 3 at 31 would be Stacy, Bush, Vereen, Jennings, Gerhart, Spiller...

    This is why WR/WR can be a bad strategy, your RBs not only suck, they are terrible.

    Yeah wasn't too thrilled about it but I figured I have the two best receivers in the NFL and might trade Colston or Romo for a solid one. Either way Bush and Spiller are two guys who should get 1000 yards this season

    I don't think either of them gets 1000 rushing yards. Also you should definitely think of trading 1 of your QBs for a RB.

    How many teams are in this league Classy?
  • bigdaddy2003
    Why are people down on Spiller this season? Do people think Jackson is going to be getting half of the carries or something? Or just assume Spiller will get hurt?
  • Laley23
    That's why you never go WR/WR. It's the deepest position in the league. Easily could've had a Top RB instead of Green/CJ and then snagged someone like Emmanuel Sanders or TY Hilton or something later on.

    Until I see Fred Jackson just completely take a step back I think he will continue to get a good amount of carries and yes Spiller will also probably get injured sometime this year and miss a few games. Spiller is just one guy I've never been high on. Also the Bills offense will be terrible.
  • Laley23
    And they just picked up Bryce Brown, who isn't anything special, but can definitely take some carries away as he is a big, fast and powerful back.
  • lhslep134
    Is anyone shocked that Classy picked a roster that is completely terrible and shows a lack of insight?

    And yet he also has Miller and Wallace (as do I), so what does that say about me? sigh...

    Lol no I wasn't shocked.

    As for Miller and Wallace.... I'm not a fan of Miller but maybe eventually he will turn it around. I think Wallace could have a very good year. I mean many people think Tannehill will have a decent year so who else will catch passes?
