Johnson and Zeke owners missed the playoffs in our league. Bell owner made it but lost first round. Owner that won it had McCoy (he of the over the hill fall off the cliff talk) and Ajayi as RBs
I went zero RB strategy this year - won a championship, and will never do it again. Why? Well the championship was luck - every team I faced in the playoffs had the worst scoring week of any team in the playoffs and the first two rounds I won having the second worst score because I lucked into playing the worst score. AND...my wr/wr/wr strategy really only nabbed me A Brown, as D Thomas was my WR2 and had to be traded for rb depth and Maclin at WR3 was craptastic and eventually I waived him. My RB1 wound up being CJA while my RB2 was a combination of Deangelo Williams for 4 weeks, then a rotation of streamers. CJA goes down early so I am stuck with Booker. Spent the whole year playing RB roulette and somehow managed to pull off a 9-3-1 regular season but it was TOO MUCH WORK. Going forward, will not go zero RB strategy. Need to land one bonafide stud RB. Now, maybe I will still go wr heavy, but only after landing at least one dependable RB.
Wait a minute here. So you're in the "So I suck" thread painting how you have AB and DJ and won the title? Come on man! That's a violation
My translation. Bad projections on Gurley. You weren't alone here. He had a great rookie year on a terrible team. My take away would be in redraft I would like to see multiple years of success if possible. Try to avoid overspending on guys on poor offenses. For Lacy, he got injured. I don't think he was all that bad prior to that. Not much of a lesson here other than try to draft the guys that won't get hurt. That's not in your control.
In retrospect, I probably should've posted last year when I tanked and made a flurry of trades that set me up for this season. I guess I've always been one of those glass half empty kind of guys! Think I'm here to keep my ego in check. Yeah, that's the reason. HahaWait a minute here. So you're in the "So I suck" thread painting how you have AB and DJ and won the title? Come on man!

6th or 7th seems about right. His upside is just too high for him to fall behind half the guys you listed. Risk is there of course, but someone in your league is taking cam early and hoping for the best. Heck I'll probably take him after Brady, luck, Rodgers, Brees and Ryan are gone and maybe take a backup a little earlier than I normally would.
I guess, but how high do you rank someone who can't complete 55% of his passes, and doesn't run that much anymore.
353/5 isn't horrible. Not what we want, and he's not run much since week 10. But some of that is attributable to injury and he was still qb11 in ppg (in my main league anyway). Where you take players like cam (high risk/reward) is worth discussing, as is what you want from your QB. If you're looking for stability at qb, don't take cam. If you're looking for the potential to win any given week from one guy, your won't find much better proven potential in the 5th round / qb6 on (I wouldn't take him before that).
DJ and Zeke didn't have multi years of success. I passed on both because I wasn't sure what their workload would be. I knew Gurley and Lacy were going to be the primary backs. Sure, there were signs of Gurley's suckage but I thought the Rams might actually improve "some" this year making him more valuable. I was also horribly wrong on Bortles which didn't help my season at all.
