Grade my team

[ThaVirus]

I had my draft earlier today and ended up being slotted with the 4th pick.

Le'veon Bell went #1 and the #2 pick was Eddie Lacy. So I'm sitting there thinking "Cool. I'll either get AP or JC, whoever 'TruePatriot' doesn't pick". Then buddy picks Gronk at #3 So I had to choose between ol' Jaymaal and Adrian. I decided to go with AP since I figure he'll get about 100 more touches than Charles and no one will be stealing his goal-line carries.

Here's my haul:

Russell Wilson
Sam Bradford

Adrian Peterson
Carlos Hyde
Isaiah Crowell
Arian Foster

Demaryius Thomas
Andre Johnson
Keenan Allen
Steve Smith
Mike Wallace

Jimmy Graham
Delanie Walker

Mason Crosby

Chiefs DEF

Solid.. very solid.

It is interesting how many of us have the Chiefs D. I do too. But, now I am looking at week 2 and 3 and thinking I will already have to start streaming defenses. We are facing two of the most potent offenses on those weeks.

Yeah, I'll probably just drop Delanie Walker and pick up whichever defenses play shitty teams like the Jags or Titans for weeks 2 and 3.

If our defense ends up being a disappointment by week 6 or so I'll probably just drop them altogether and adopt that method until the end of the season.

Thank you. I think it's got a lot of potential.

Andre Johnson with Luck, Sam Bradford in Chip's offense, Carlos Hyde as a feature back, Arian Foster coming back from injury in about a month, Keenan Allen looking to prove himself coming off a down year, Mike Wallace with a QB that has a nice deep ball, and Steve Smith in his final season.

QB: Drew Brees

WR: Demaryius Thomas, Brandin Cooks, Allen Robinson, Martavius Bryant, Percy Harvin

D: Chiefs
K: McMannus

That looks like a solid roster. Knile and Percy return kicks, but in that format I usually like to grab someone like CJ Spiller who adds return yards at the RB position. Knile Davis does that too though. At one point last year, I started Charles and Davis when my other RBs were on a bye. Return yards adds a nice change to the league.. really elevates alot of WRs. In that format, I think TE should be a pretty big drafting focus since you can't get phantom return yards from that position (despite my recent drafting history in my league) and grabbing Kelce is big.

I wish we had an IR slot in my league.

Thanks

I love the IR spot. Allows you to deal with injuries, or early in the season grab a guy and sit on him. Agree about Spiller, could have grabbed him instead of Murray, but really thought he was going to make it back to me. My brother nabbed him. Wanted Murray because I wanted a guy who I thought would get the opportunity to pound the rock.

Really like my WRs, especially after Bryant returns. If I need anything it's some RB depth.

Had two drafts back to back Sat and by the time the 2nd one started I was feeling no pain.Had the 9th pick in a 10 man 6pt all td's non ppr and I clearly remember my first four picks of Julio,Beckham,Cooks and Brees after that it gets a little fuzzy but here is the team

Brees
Bridgewater

Doug Martin
chris Ivory
Ameer Abdullah
CJ Spiller

Julio
Beckham
Cooks
Ed Royal
Chris Conley
Ty Mongomery

Martellus bennett
josh Hill

Rams
Lions

B Macmanus
D Carpenter

BTW,this league requires that we carry 2 D's and 2 kickers and except for one flex everyone has the same amount of roster spots

Interesting strategy.. I would have gone RB by round 3 personally. Your RBs ended up pretty weak. For a non-PPR it doesn't make much sense to go WR-WR-WR, although I can see how Beckham was attractive in the second.

Looks pretty good. Interesting scoring / flexibility on the positions.

I like your top RB's and WR's.

Landry would be better at PPR, so I'm not as crazy about your WR3. Likewise, I'm not sold on Randle, Sankey, or Cobb.. they all seem to be mediocre and in the middle of a large RBBC.

Surprised you ended up with a TE even, given your scoring.. and a top one really.

Just out of curiosity, where did you have to take the Seattle defense?
