QB Rivers 3.15
QB Flynn 7.15
QB Skelton
You should be solid here. Late bye for Flynn lets him help you for 10 straight weeks if needed. Hosed me by picking Skelton, but hopefully it doesn’t cost me. Like your combo.
RB Mathews 2.2
RB Ingram 5.15
RB Starks 9.15
RB Lamicheal James
RB Powell
RB Kuhn
I kinda like what you did here overall although I’m not sure you are as solid as you think on the top 3. Matthews should be a stud so that’s a good place to start. I took Ingram in a bunch of drafts last year and he killed me. I think that will continue to affect my opinion of him. New Orleans also seems to like what Sproles/Thomas/Ivory bring to the game so I wonder if Ingram will ever truly become what I think many of us envisioned for him when the Saints first signed him. That is a crowded backfield on a team that throws the ball to begin with anyway. Ingram will be one player I will be staying away from in most drafts this year. I’m not sure he is even their first option at the goal line anymore let alone between the 20’s. Not sure GB is all in on Starks either, but we’ll see what happens during the draft and afterward and with Green/Saine. But after that I like how you backed those 3 up. James could be huge I agree with you about Powell maybe surprising with his production. Like Kuhn and his TD’s.
WR Nicks 1.15
WR Colston 4.2
WR Little 8.2
WR Roberts 13.15
WR Steve Smith SL
WR Hartline
WR Clyde Gates
WR Brian Quick
I got Colston in the 4th in a WSL and also felt like it was a good bargain, so love the top 2. I like Little but really would have liked to have seen CLE get a QB. Even a guy like Orton or something I think would have helped improve his stock. After that you got some bodies, nothing special and to me not much real upside to pick you up if you need it. You got two from the mess that is MIA, Smith could end up getting cut, and a rook. Roberts should still be the starter although Fitz is campaigning for Floyd. Just a quick look and the QB situations kind of stink at all the places after your top 2 guys (Kolb owner here).
TE Gresham 6.2
TE Miller 11.15
TE Housler
Decent group here and I agree with your assessment on Gresham and Housler. I’m holding on Miller right now as let’s see if they add a TE somehow, whether through the draft or a guy like Shiancoe.
D Pitt 10.2
D San Diego 12.2
PK Henery 14.2
PK Succop
Overall: Took a quick look at your draft. Even though I am down on Ingram, I can’t really argue with your first 7 picks. IMO I would have taken Decker or even Meachem over Little and I would have liked your WR’s a TON more. Decker is going to be a monster. Manning>McCoy. Doesn’t really matter here and maybe a discussion for another time, but not sure about “Against the other WSL, I got lots of value”…not sure if that is necessarily a great measuring stick across the board. One or two guys overvaluing somebody like Mendenhall or something can really skew the ADP’s, etc., but I understand what you are trying to say. Nice job and good luck.
