I think 10-team leagues are hard to get an awful team, so this is far from bad. But I think you could have done way way way better here. You have 4 nice receivers to choose from in a PPR so that's obviously your greatest strength. I don't love Alshon nor his injury record and TY can be boom, bust. Dez will obviously get targets and TDs but so much of that depends on Romo's health. If Romo gets hurt this team goes to **** real quick and there is no elite or even top 10 QB in a 2 QB league, 1 elite RB then a bunch of huge huge question marks, and no elite TE. I think you could have done better but it's not terrible. Looks more like a 12-team draft than a 10-team one

I had first pick, but stipulation was I had 6th pick 3rd round (31st pick) instead of first (25th).
QB Cam Newton
RB Melvin Gordon
RB2 Frank Gore
WR Antonio Brown
WR2 TY Hilton
TE Coby Fleener
FLEX Eric Decker
DST: Texans
K: Boswell
RB BENCH: Arian Foster, Dion Lewis, Spencer Ware
WR Bench: Sterling Shepherd, Sammie Coates
TE BENCH: Antonio Gates
QB BENCH: Derek Carr
Notes: first time I have ever drafted a QB before 4th round (2nd) but i wanted two elite players at their position and I think my WRS are still solid.
I didn't draft a RB until 6th round mainly because I believe that RBS in PPR in 2016 are mainly damage control. I picked up foster and Gordon hoping potential breakouts and gore nothing special but a every down starter.
What do you guys think?
Curious what the stipulation meant for the guy with the 6th pick overall. He got your first pick in the 3rd round? Did it work that way for everyone throughout? Sounds like a reverse snake but more complicated. What about the guy with the 12th pick for example?
Major spew taking Cam 2nd
especially in a 6 point passing TD league. That takes away a major advantage of Cam being the top QB off the board and any excuse to be taken that high, which there is still no excuse for. Your best RB may well be on your bench (Foster) and that's not good. Gore is fantasy purgatory. You're not winning leagues with Frank Gore starting.
Obv love Brown at WR and overall your receiving core isn't bad. I like Decker in full PPR. See Hilton comments above, but he's obviously not bad to have in your team. What RBs were available at the time of your 2nd pick? That was where your major major major mistake was. I get the elite RBs were off the board but you simply can't take Cam there. Also you know Dion Lewis is hurt for ~10 weeks right? Going to let him take up a roster spot in in hopes he returns to an extremely unpredictable Bill Bellicheck offense?
