I highly recommend Shady and Morris this year. Dez Bryant will be the top wr and I think he might break some records. Julius Thomas TE Denver is a monster in the making. Christine Michael will be a stud rb next yr,grab him in all keeper leagues. Look for Stafford to have a HUGE season. And look for D Bowe to have a top 10 yr in KC. I think Finley will be a force again in Gb and if he stays healthy. P.Garcon will be a legit #1 wr if he stays healthy as well. Avoid Foster and Lynch as there heavy loads in past years will catch up with them this yr. Also grab B.Tate and if given the chance he will become a stud.
Go Birds!!!!

  • I am sold on Vick having a good year. He is a bottom of the draft pick and I did get back ups in the event I am wrong but I think he might pop back up the rankings again this year.
    Also consistently taking a risk on MJD and Chris Johnson.
    Think it is a good year for rebounds.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Vick is my backup. CJ will have a good yr with that new O-line. I like MJD as well, but he does worry more them CJ.

    Hope your WR are strong....Auto Draft is always tough. RBs could be good but that is a big risk. RB is typically what you look to draft strong in (at least for most themes)
    You can be active on the wire and pick up people to fill out.
    Your QBs are good.

    Luck-qb
    Trent Richardson-rb
    Steven Jackson-rb
    Daryl Richardson-flex
    Vincent Jackson-wr
    Greg Jennings-wr
    Tony Gonzalez-te
    Bears-D
    Prater-K

    Bench
    Kenbrell Thompkins-wr
    Josh Gordon-wr
    Billal Powell-rb
    Alshon jeffrey-wr
    Laveon Bell-rb
    Kenny stills-wr
    Zach sudfeld-te

    This is my 12 team big money league... Luck was my keeper last year. I need a 2nd receiver to emerge, Jennings was the safest pick I could make... I feel good. I'm protected to have most points, Daryl Richardson. Could be special

    Yesterday I had maybe my best draft ever on Yahoo 10 team PPR league. One problem- in the 4th I took Kaepernick because I did not realize Brady was still available. What a bonehead move on my part. I'm still very happy with my team though.

    QB- Kaepernick
    WR- Brandon Marshall, Pierre Garcon, Jordy Nelson, Anquan Boldin, Vincent Brown, Emmanuel Sanders
    RB- Jamaal Charles, Darren Sproles, Shane Vereen, Ronnie Hillman
    TE- Jimmy Graham
    K- Stephen Gostkowski
    D- Chicago, Denver

    Yahoo gave me an A+ rating. I hope they are correct.

    Exactly what I thought when I saw your lineup. You have a couple of options who can pan out eventually, or maybe you can grab a steal on the waiver wire.

  • I hate my team...

    QB- Newton
    RB- Lynch
    RB- Lamar Miller
    WR- AJ Green
    WR- Jordy Nelson
    Flex- Vick Ballard (this week only since Indy is playing the Raiders)
    K- Greg Zuerlien
    D- Steelers

    Bench
    Cutler
    Tavon Austin
    Greg Little
    Mike Milliams
    Daniel Thomas (handcuff in case Miller doesn't work out)
    Bilal Powell
    Brandon Myers


    The thing I hate is that I don't really have a go-to option for the flex spot. Hopefully Ballard or Powell can be a decent RB and be my flex guy. If not, it will probably have to be Mike Williams or Tavon Austin if he turns out to be good.
  • Who are your sleepers,keepers and busts? I'm telling ya guys Julius Thomas from Denver will be a beast.

    I feel like it will either be him or a waiver wire pickup as your flex

    Who are your sleepers,keepers and busts? I'm telling ya guys Julius Thomas from Denver will be a beast.

    In my keeper league we have the following rules: a player that is kept must be used as a pick 2 rounds lower the following year (ex: a 5th round pick in 2012 can be kept as a 3rd round pick in 2013. Also you can only keep one FA and they go as 10th round)

    I kept Kaepernick from a FA last year and used him as a 10th round pick this year
    This year I took Crabtree in the 15th and can use him as a 13th rounder next year (will just stash him the entire year if I can)
    I got Shane Vereen in the 8th and he may be worth a 6th round pick next year

    We do the same thing in my league The only thing difference is the player had to be drafted and on an active roster all yr. I always trade my keepers as I go big or go home every yr. Although this yr I did grab some good keepers late. I can't wait for tonight.

  • Who are your sleepers,keepers and busts? I'm telling ya guys Julius Thomas from Denver will be a beast.

    As I already listed I am 'all in' on Vick this year as a sleeper. Tough to really be a sleeper when you were the best player in FF 3 years ago but everything thinks he sucks as a #1 QB this year and I think he going to be a good #1.
    For other sleepers I like Jordan Cameron @ TE, Kenbrell Thompkins & Riley Cooper as WR#2 options on passing teams. (All back ups that I drafted in one of the many leagues I am in.)

    Keepers? The only Keeper league I was in dissolved this year so I dont have any. I was stoked about Alfred Morris being my best keeper I was slated to have.

    Busts? We all have guys we think are going to perform much lower than projections (or get injured) and thus avoid them like the plague. Some of mine are:
    Darren McFadden (would not draft him unless he were still available as a bench player. Dude injures himself getting out of bed)
    Frank Gore (huge Niners fan but I think this is the year we see his carries go way down)
    Danny Amendola (like him but he is going to get hurt. Again)
    RGIII (love to watch him, going to kill himself running like he does, as small as he is)
    Andrew Luck (expect a step back, not a step forward. very good young qb though)
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    My entire team did great... except James Jones :x. 0 catches.

    I may lose because my opponent has Peyton. Hoping Vincent Brown does poorly tonight!

    Wish I would have taken OP's pick and scooped Julius Thomas on the waiver wire. Too late after gametime and I am way down on waiver list in both my leagues with waiver wires so I dont expect to get him.
    My Jordan Cameron sleeper did very well in one league.
    My shit of the week was keeping Anquan Boldin on the bench. It was a flex position and I started Chris Johnson there instead (which was the right call going IN to the weekend :lol:) and Boldin blew up.
