I had my draft tonight. Fifth pick out of 12. No PPR and passing TDs are worth four points. In parentheses are guys who were available when I picked. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

5. David Johnson (Julio Jones, DeAndre Hopkins, Ezekiel Elliott)

20. Brandon Marshall (Eddie Lacy, Dez Bryant, Sammy Watkins, Mike Evans)

29. Thomas Rawls (Jordan Reed, Carlos Hyde, Brandin Cooks, Keenan Allen)

44. Jarvis Landry (Eric Decker, Golden Tate, Russ Wilson, Latavius Murray)....was about to select Edelman but he went one pick earlier

53. Ryan Mathews (Andrew Luck, Emmanuel Sanders, Kelvin Benjamin, Larry Fitz).....was going to pick DeMarco Murray here but he was taken one pick prior

68. Jordan Matthews (Travis Kelce, Danny Woodhead, DeSean Jackson)

77. Marvin Jones (DeVante Parker, Chris Ivory, Derrick Henry)

92. Vincent Jackson (Eli Manning, Stefon Diggs, Tavon Austin)

101. Isaiah Crowell (Jay Ajayi, Gary Barnidge, Antonio Gates)

116. Markus Wheaton (Derek Carr, James Starks, Darren Sproles)

125. Kirk Cousins (next QBs picked were Dalton, Winston, Mariota)

140. Chris Johnson (handcuff)

149. Jimmy Graham

164. Graham Gano

173. Bills D/ST

Definitely taking Jones at 5.
I still have Dez over Marshall but can't fault it too much.
I'd take Diggs over VJax, I'm assuming the draft was after the Bridgewater news?
Hate Jimmy as your only TE, will he even start week 1?

Looks like you like RB's way too much. Julio over DJ all day. I like Rawls but picking him in the 3rd when you already went DJ in 1 is tough to justify. Cooks or Allen there and then Latavius in 4 instead of Landry is much stronger imo. And then a 3rd RB in rd 5?

I like Kelce over JMatt too, you're gonna need to pick up a TE.

If I wait long enough that Cousins is my QB1, I'm def drafting a backup soon after.

Wheaton seems pretty superfluous as a WR6 over QB or TE. Not a fan of handcuffing my own guys this early in the year, especially when the backup isn't that good and isn't locked into a workhorse role if the guy you're handcuffing is hurt.

Had to draft for my buddy's keeper league last minute, casual league with a buncha doctors, 2 keepers up to 2 years, 2/2/1flex standard no ppr

Thoughts? the 2nd turn was the toughest, with the rbs I took and maclin/landry/kelce there it was a tough choice, but in 2/2 standard I felt going strong on RBs was ultimately the most important thing with Goat/jordy already rostered and the recent Jamaal news...

is there anyway to make a yahoo draft come up on that nice draft board graphic?
whats the best way for me to post my draft so its easy for people to read?

silly six team ppr league.
QB 2rb 2wr TE flex.

rank teams please.

this might be easier to view:

What spot are you?

The team with ODB is probably your biggest threat. Love how someone has Evans as a WR4

Lol 6 team leagues

This was a tough one! Need to fill lots of spots and is a very high scoring league.

10 Team 2 QB/2RB/3 WR/2 Flex/TE/Def/K Full PPR and 6 point passing TDs

Definitely made a few missteps and would like a few do overs in retrospect Really wish I had one more target heavy WR. I am least happy with the McCoy pick and could have gotten a solid high target WR there and rolled the dice with later round RBs.

My team (from the one spot)

1. (1) Antonio Brown (Pit - WR)
no brainer!
2. (20) Brandon Marshall (NYJ - WR)
Love this guy for PPR
3. (21) Le'Veon Bell (Pit - RB)
Tough decision! If healthy best PPR back after his suspension but there are those 3 games he misses. Hopefully I don't start 0-3! Plus WRs are so good in this format but I figured if I make the playoffs and he is healthy I will be very happy to have him.
4. (40) LeSean McCoy (Buf - RB)
Woulda coulda shoulda gone WR here? The Bell pick and him not being around early skewed my thinking. I don't love this pick.
5. (41) Jarvis Landry (Mia - WR)
PPR machine I wish I had more like him!
6. (60) Matthew Stafford (Det - QB)
Waited long enough for QB and very happy with him.
7. (61) Marcus Mariota (Ten - QB)
Thought hard about waiting for the next turn but didn't want to risk starting a very bottom ender
8. (80) Danny Woodhead (SD - RB)
9. (81) Giovani Bernard (Cin - RB)
Maybe should have gone RB/WR here instead of RB/RB but the Bell thing is still gnawing at me and lack of RB depth in this league has burned me before plus I love both of these guys in a PPR format. I just love Woody and feel real strong about Gio this year.
10. (100) Gary Barnidge (Cle - TE)
Needed to fill this spot but if he weren't available probably would have waited
11. (101) Vincent Jackson (TB - WR)
Felt he was best WR available and I need depth there. WRs were going off the board fast and furiously.
12. (120) Brock Osweiler (Hou - QB)
Looked great last exhibition game and should be fine for plug and play 3rd QB
13. (121) Rishard Matthews (Ten - WR)
Once again need WR depth and not much left hopefully this guy live up to the hype/promise
14. (140) Chris Ivory (Jax - RB)
Nothing I really want on the board so a GL bruiser is okay and adds to the ever important RB depth
15. (141) Arizona (Ari - DEF)
Might as well take a top Def
16. (160) Jared Cook (GB - TE)
Taking a flyer that he and Rodgers sync up. Guy is a beast and finally in a good offense with a good QB. It could happen
17. (161) Blair Walsh (Min - K)
kicker

Team 2, Peter.

Tough to really rank teams as they are all absurdly stacked and edges between them will be quite small. You drafted well though and I prob like your team the best. Definitely would if you picked Cobb over Moncrief. Prob would've gone Foster over Jones too or if you prefer to go WR there, KBenj or something, but I know I'm not as high on Jones as some people are.

Floyd in the 7th was robbery

How do you post all the teams in the photo like that??
anyhway 50 ypl 1qb 3wr 2rb 1 te

1. (3) Julio Jones (Atl - WR)
2. (18) Le'Veon Bell (Pit - RB)
3. (23) Brandin Cooks (NO - WR)
4. (38) Randall Cobb (GB - WR)
5. (43) Thomas Rawls (Sea - RB)
6. (58) Jordan Matthews (Phi - WR)
7. (63) Jeremy Langford (Chi - RB)

14. (138) Jay Ajayi (Mia - RB)
15. (143) Alfred Morris (Dal - RB)

It's okay, but depth doesn't mean a ton in those. Trading is like pulling teeth.

if you got Bell, you just have to get DeAnegloe, IMO. Only 4 teams make the playoffs and you are digging a decent sized hole by having no RB1 production for the 1st 3 weeks.

Hope Zeke smokes a little something and beats up his GF again and your team gets good fast, IMO.

I wanted to take cobb but dude who put up the $$$ specifically wanted moncrief....

Did my first ever auction... 10 tm .5 ppr $200
I definitely messed up spending too much money too early. I got good players at good values, but there were some ridiculous steals near the end of the draft like Cobb $7 (i know...) and Jordan Reed 12, etc...

1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex, 1 DST, 1 K

My Team
David Johnson $52
Sammy Watkins $27 (I think this is my worst pick of the day)
Alshon Jeffery $ 24
Jamaal Charles $35
Mark Ingram $26
Brandin Cook $23
Andy Dalton $1
John Brown $4
Justin Forsett $1
Antonio Gates $1
Corey Coleman $1
Kamar Aiken $1
Shane Vereen $1
Matthew Stafford $1
Pats D $1
Graham Gano $1

Lineup
QB Dalton
RB David Johnson
RB Jamaal Charles
WR Alshon Jeffrey
WR Sammy Watkins
TE Antonio Gates
Flex Mark Ingram
K Gano
Pats D

Bench

Brandin Cooks
John Brown
Justin Forsett
Corey Coleman
Kamar Aiken
Shane Vereen
Matt Stafford

Taking Charles without Ware is the worst thing you did

Ah I didn't even think about that... Just placed a waivers bid on him (nobody else took him)

Ok, so did my first draft tonight. It is a stupid league imo - 8 teams, non-PPR, standard scoring, QB, RB, WR, WR, WR, Flex, TE, K, D, 5 bench spots.

Live draft so I can't post the whole auction. I got caught twice price enforcing, which apparently sucks trying to do in an 8 person team. I always say I am going to weight more towards studs and then I don't pull it off. Feeling very meh about this team:

QB Carson Palmer $2
RB Doug Martin $10
WR Odell Beckham Jr. $30
WR Dez Bryant $16
WR T.Y. Hilton $8
Flex Eddie Lacy $10
TE Coby Fleener $1
Def Seahawks $1
K Mason Crosby $1
Bench Thomas Rawls $6
Bench Golden Tate $3
Bench Julian Edelman $6
Bench Matt Jones $3
Bench Larry Fitzgerald $3

Total $100


Feedback appreciated. Waiver wire is pretty open so have the ability to make changes.

12 team .5 ppr. 2rb/2wr/te/flex. prob my softest league of the year. Friends from high school and college

11. Allen Robinson (Freeman, Jordy, LeVeon, Lamar, Jamaal, Dez)
14. Leveon
35. CJA (Rawls, Tate, Keenan, TY, Cobb, Baldwin, Demarco) (Went with CJA here because I knew my buddy wouldn't take Keenan on the turn)
38. Keenan
59. Ryan Matthews (Matt Jones, Big Ben, Fitz, Melvin Gordon, Brady)
62. Fitz
83. Henry (Eifert, White, Snead, Fleener, Ivory, Lockett, Blount)
86. Snead... did draft on phone while playing poker. was rushed making these 2 picks??
107. Barnidge (Bortles, Powell, Crowell, Ertz, Graham, Vjax, Tevin)
110. Crowell
131. Fuller (Coleman, Hogan, Cousins,
134. Cousins (Carr?)
Jets D
Gano

Really liked this draft. first 4 feel good. not sure about the Henry Snead turn. pretty soft league

Standard, QB/2WR/2RB/TE/Flex/K/DST/5 BN

#9. Overall I'm quite happy. The only pick I didn't like and felt confused at was #7 - Rashad Jennings. I was hoping to grab Deangelo Williams that round but he got snagged. Had to load up on RBs given Green, Dez, Tate in first 5 rounds. I didn't like any RBs in that spot at round 4 (took Wilson) or round 5 (Tate) and felt the guys are took were better value.

I'm happy I got both Ivory/Yeldon. Wouldn't be particularly pleased with just 1 of them.

thoughts and my team and overall? thanks.

Don't do any 8 teamers, but this seems kinda weak for that any teams to me. Has really good depth, but I assume all teams have good depth. Like you said, studs are more important in this format and you only have 1.
