I’ll be posting my next championship roster in 2 weeks.
Hated your first round pick..... Have McCaffrey ranked ahead of him. If there is anyone that is due for regress its him. Still going to be good though don't get me wrong there. I just have about 7 guys ranked ahead of him that were there. Now overall I thought you had a great draft, probably one of your best with a tough group of drafters. Hate the bookends this year. If you get decent production from your RB2 you will have a very good season.
Good Luck

You are reaching at some points and then using last years stats on other points.
Wilson = Probably a top 3 qb, he is the offensive and expect their defense to not be good this year.
Kamara will still be good, but I don't think top 5 good. I don't see him being as efficient as last year, I do like Drake to be a higher end rb2
Allen should be very good, but you are already projecting Hilton to be a top 12 guy despite seeing what would happen last year if Luck isn't there. I like both guys (Luck and Hilton) but to just assume they will go back to a few years ago should be what you hope for not expected
You are also just expecting Walker to be what he was last year, despite a new offense, an injury that may linger, 2 receivers that have another year another their belt and another running back that is a pass catcher and at the same time expecting Olsen to be what he was before the injury ruined last year at age 33 with a guy like Cam, who hasn't broken 4000 passing yards since his rookie year and only broke 30 passing touchdowns once in his career and has always been closer to 20 touchdowns than 30 except that one year. My prediction would be neither of those guys would be a top 10 tight end come years end, and that is kind of a bold take. I would bet money that they both aren't top 10 tight ends by the end of 16.
This isn't bad team, but it is easy to see some flaws. If I was in a dynasty league with a owner that was overly confident about this team I would be trying to trade that team something to get their 2019 1st. This team is 1 injury away from being a bottom 5 team. It could be one waiver wire pick up away from being a league winner too though.

Yeah, thanks. Could have done better there - yes... I don't own him anywhere else and wanted him though, and I was actually praying for McCaff to make it back around to me. I thought he would and did not factor in his performance this week, so I got caught. I need an injury to an incumbent so Yeldon, Smith or Connor takes the field, or one of my other RBs to play out and then yes I like the team quite a bit.
GL to you too. Probably see you in another draft...
Hmmmm...
can u please list your rank of TEs for the 10 that will finish higher than both these guys? I'm interested in how it ends up so we can revisit at years end.
msudaisy26
Footballguy
In no order, Gronk, Reed, Ertz, Njoku, Engram, Kelce, Rudolph, Hooper, Burton, McDonald. Obviously I can see guys getting hurt or Burton not living up to the hype and one of those guys sneaking in.

I could be wrong. Those are 2 guys I avoided for the most part this year for the stated reasons above. I also don't want to turn this into a weekly "I told you so thread" I won't be doing that if they have a bad week.
It wasn't a comparison between our rankings. I was just curious on who she had slated above the two of them..
Interesting, we will have to wait and see. If Olsen is healthy he is top 5 easily in that new offense. The new offense only helps him not hurts him just my opinion. Walker could drop but I have been saying that for years now and he still ends up top 5 every year.

Do you know something about Robby Anderson and Amari Cooper that we don't???
Nice teams, though I think #3 is going to struggle all season at RB. Did you take Amari in round 3 here? I don't like that pick.
i think #3 will be serviceable at WR but probably be behind there.
I like #1 by far the most... strong balanced team w/ depth top to bottom. Nice job there!
leftcoastheel
Footballguy
I do, yes. I think he is going to be very good. My boss owns the Dolphins though... lol.. so I have to like him.

Footballguy
LOL, I don't have that kinda pull... He let my fly on his G5 a few weeks ago though. Mainly just put the screws to me the whole flight.
Patrick the Pirate
Footballguy
Robby A. seems like value to me where he goes. He was WR18 last year and goes in round 8 typically.
Think Amari bounces back. Probably doesn't though. Taking him in 3 every time. I'm sorry that you don't like it.
Patrick the Pirate
Footballguy
Nice luck to get McCaffrey to fall that far back to you in 2. Gotta love that.
Taking 4 RB to start puts you strong in one position and weak everywhere else. Gonna be tough.
leftcoastheel
Footballguy
Depends on your philosophy. Go back and look at last year's final board leaders. All super strong at RB - most starting at least 3 and in several situations 4 RBs - and many were actually just OK (not bad but by no means outstanding) at WR. If this year is anything like last, you should hoard as many RBs as early as possible... especially since I think there is a consensus emerging that there isn't going to be the gold this year in the mid/late round RB corps that there was last year.
Now will this year actually be like last?I don't know. I am playing 15 teams, so I am employing various strategies. I've posted 5 or 6 up (the first 1 or 2 sucked pretty badly as I was just getting back into the swing of it), I definitely have have some that are more balanced early on and some that are WR/TE heavy early on. Diversification.
This team will be very tough if Cory Davis or one of my several late round WRs emerges. I actually am starting to think, based on preseason play, that the mid/late round gold may be in the WR corps this year. Which behooves you take RBs early. And, to that point, I actually agree with you on Robbie Anderson - was just pointing out he is on every one of your teams, not that he is a bad pick - I grab him after the 7th if he ever falls there at this point in the drafting cycle!

From the 11th hole:

RB: Cook (2); Freeman (4); Hyde (6); Chubb (11); Doug Martin (14); Blount (18)
WR: Josh Gordon (3); Crabtree (5); Cobb (7); DVante Parker (10); Brandon Marshall (16); Kevin White (17)

DF: Denver (15); Zona (20)
PK: Boswell (19)
Fire away.... I wanted to get Jordan Reed TE with my 4th 5th pick but he went one pick before me .... maybe its a blessing in disguise if he is injured again.... Crabtree is not bad to help with the WR core

You do have the rookie WR market covered except the best pick .... Ridley who is going to transition to the NFL the fastest....the problem with FFPC is you only have 11 weeks so you cannot wait for rookie WRs to get going....that's why I prefer not to touch them
leftcoastheel
Footballguy
Yeah, I'd rather gamble on rook WRs late this year than accept Parker, Marshall and White at similar ADPs (also late). We know what those guys are... Marshall is 34. But maybe he puts up a last roar, who knows.
You got the Browns backfield tied up! Could work out.
Don't like Gronk in the first and don't like Gordon in the third. Could have gotten both one round later.
That said I think the team worked out. Interesting team. Good luck.

From the 3rd hole:

DF: Hou (12); Chargers (16)
PK: Bryant (19)
I wanted to get Freeman or Jordan Howard in the 3rd but smtg got screwed up in the draft and I got Edelman in the 3rd which is nonsense.....by the time the commish paused draft both howard and Freeman were gone....so I was forced to pick Baldwin there

Russell Wilson just lost his favorite redzone target in Graham.....take away those TDs (and they did not do anything to upgrade at TE), and I don't see him being a #1 QB....I rather have Watson all day....

Last years leaders had Bell and Gurley right? Doesn't really matter much what you have behind those two as long as it's not nothing.
Taking the 4 RB to start, since two are flexes, you have to ask yourself is the RB going to outscore the WR available at this point? Does Barkley RB6 outscore Brown/Hopkins WR1? Does McCaffrey RB11 outscore the WR's available then? Does Drake outscore the WR's, does Henry etc... If the answer is always yes, the RB will outscore the WR according to your projections then the pick is to take the RB. Behoove away.
So Russell having to do more on his own will hurt his fantasy value ? Don’t get that but ok. Seattle has never had ample offensive weapons. It’s been Lynch/no rb and 1 WR for his whole career. He’s done just fine with limited options. I also love Watson. He’s the qb on 1/2 my teams. Ha. Still wouldn’t shock anyone if Wilson ends up #1.Sweetness_34 said:

Yes, I think they will. I think it is going to be really tough to catch up at RB later in the draft, and I really don't like the WR available in rounds 3/4.Patrick the Pirate said:
Nice team Coots. Plenty of shares of Kamara here also. Got the Kamara/McCaff combo a couple weeks ago. Dig it up after work and post it later.
leftcoastheel
Footballguy
Good team... what slot? Like my last team just need the RB2 to work out.
I got Kamara at 7 over the weekend (!)
Sweetness_34
Footballguy
So an entire offense or team can never regress/tank? Seattle's OL still stinks; they have no RB yet that has done squat; they lost their best red zone TD machine; their D is in rebuild mode..... Russell is not going to run fro 150 yards every week.... they play really good defenses in the AFC West (Chargers; Broncos; Chiefs) and NFC North (Chi; Minn; GB; Det)..... basically expect the entire team to stink and the entire O to be in trouble all year .... good luck

So u are relying on Dion Lewis who is always injured or at best in a time share with Henry; Keenan Allen who is a stud but again major injury history; Baldwin is already injured; Gordon I love but again will he actually play an entire year; Edelman is already out 4 games; Burkhead is on a team with 4 RB monster which means he will be a dud when you start him and be a stud when you bench him; no real top 10 TE; a QB1 that has again injury concerns and even if healthy has one weapon in Hilton and a QB2 who is again out for 4 games..... so much risk all over the roster....I like high risk/high reward but this is an overkill and I will be shocked if this team does anything unless u get super lucky
Everything you’re suggesting points to Russell having to rush and throw for more yards then he’s ever thrown for before. You want your fantasy QB’s defense to be miserable. It’s good for his fantasy outlook. I don’t even know what team you’re referring to. But if you took your RB5 over Russell Wilson, it was bad then and still bad now.
Sweetness_34
Footballguy
Yes a bad D helps a QB throw more....but he will also have a lot more turnovers which will result in stalled drives....not to mention he is going to get mauled again which means getting injured is just a matter of time given he is not that big to begin with
Sweetness can you do the same analysis on this team as you did mine above. Just wondering how it will go...

You do realize he was picking at the turn? Would Gronk have been there at 2.02. Maybe, but if that is your guy picking him 3 picks early isn't a big deal. Especially if Fournette, Cook, Hunt, Gordon, and CMac were the guys there and he didn't care which one he got.
Ok last one.
