How do you expect a first round to shake out?

I'm way confused this year. People are all over the place on fantasy strategy in the middle slots.

After Charles, McCoy, Peterson, and Forte go off the board (in any order), what the **** happens? I'm pretty sure the 5th team pretty much has to reach on Lacy, right? Unless he wants to just say, "**** it, I'll take Manning and at least have the best QB."

And after that? The best RBs seem to be Ball (who I don't buy at all), Bernard, and Bell. When do the WRs come off the board? Which ones? And geez... what about the WRs after Calvin? I really have no clue who is the next best one between Thomas, Julio, Green, Bryant, and Marshall. Does that mean you just don't pick one of those guys and instead go for a RB?

If only the world was connected in a way that this information could be obtained...

You can take Megatron, Jimmy Graham....depending on league rules manning brees or Rodgers wouldn't be bad...if you insist on rb and that's how it played out with the first four then yeah Lacy.

I like to see how the draft is playing out and then zig when everybody else zags. Don't get stuck.

At number 5? Megaton all day. Eddie Lacy, while probably the next best RB, represents the beginning of a large gapped second tier. Take Megatron and then get a few RB on the way back and down in rd 2 and 3
