I went TE heavy this year. My projections have them counting points most weeks. I did like Najee Harris and his upside but didn't want conflicting byes. Even with Chubb costing more than Harris, his projection was more than enough to make up the difference. I went back in forth with Jefferson or Thielen but wasn't going to have both. Thielen's projected point to value ratio was higher than Jefferson's but I could not get a team to produce as many points with him in it. Thielen and Higgins were basically interchangeable for me. I tried to get one more player on the roster with either Stevenson or Jakobi Meyers but some player combinations just didn't work out.
I decided that having a few stars on the team over hoping for five or six average players performing was well worth it. Yes there is risk of injuries, but I have plenty of competition for starts between quality players. Not swinging for a single here.
For QBs had to go with Wilson over Rodgers and Brady. I don't want a top scoring player on a late season bye week. Hopefully he duplicates the free for all from the 1st half of last year. Fields will probably be getting playing time after week three at the latest.
QB - Russell Wilson - SEA/9 - $17
QB - Justin Herbert - LAC/7 - $16
QB - Justin Fields - CHI/10 - $7
Between Chubb and Harris, Harris more upside to explode. Chubb will get his and no bye conflicts with other RBs with a very high point projection vs. cost. Basically change player names into projection numbers and values and you have my thoughts.
RB - Nick Chubb - CLE/13 - $26
RB - David Montgomery - CHI/10 - $22
RB - James Robinson - JAX/7 - $16
RB - Gus Edwards - BAL/8 - $11
Would've liked to have three receivers with 200+ point projections but had to let the three of mine fight for a start each week. Pittman and Callaway for upside.
WR - Justin Jefferson - MIN/7 - $25
WR - Tee Higgins - CIN/10 - $18
WR - Michael Pittman - IND/14 - $9
WR - Marquez Callaway - NO/6 - $5
WR - M Valdes-Scantling - GB/13 - $3
1 1/2 PPR. OK.
TE - Darren Waller - LV/8 - $27
TE - T.J. Hockenson - DET/9 - $19
TE - Kyle Pitts - ATL/6 - $17
Three kickers in case one gets the boot.
PK - Jake Elliott - PHI/14 - $3
PK - Greg Joseph - MIN/7 - $3
PK - Evan McPherson - CIN/10 - $2
Only two here but teams don't get cut like kickers do.
Hopefully no covid cancellations.
TD - Green Bay Packers - GB/13 - $2
TD - Dallas Cowboys - DAL/7 - $2
