I like Bennett. He's suspended for game one though right?
If you can grab him cheap as a second TE he could be a steal. If I wait on TE till later I try to grab him as a backup so I have two viable starters.

He was suspended for the 1st preseason game, but he's good to go as far as I know. Yahoo is still projecting him to get me between 6 & 7 this week, so he better not be suspended!

Ah, I knew he was suspended for something. Preseason suspensions are a gift to the player, not a punishment.

Is this a keeper league? Josh Gordon's year-long suspension was upheld. Unless you're gambling on a lawsuit & injunction.

I took Gordon with my 15th pick. There's a slim chance he can appeal to state court and get an injunction. Major flyer, but there's nobody else I'm going to get in the 15th round that I can't get off waivers if need be. I could have had Stafford, but took Romo instead, love his weapons and their crappy defense. He had better numbers than Stafford last year and should again this year. I'm not thrilled with CJ Spiller at RB2, I thought Alf Morris was there for me and the guy who picked right before me took him in the 3rd, even though he already had two RBs.

Made a trade an got Emmanuel Sanders and Zac Stacy for Reggie Bush, Jeremy Maclin, and Kelvin Benjamin. He had Demaryius Thomas (didn't want 2 Broncos receivers, wanted more receiver depth). I think I owned that trade.

Kelvin Benjamin is one of those guys that has been sufficiently hyped as "under the radar" to the point that some people will wildly overpay for him and think they still got a steal. Sammy Watkins is kind of the same way though even more valuable.

Stacy > Bush
Maclin = Sanders

Wildcard is Benjamin. I got him in one draft, didn't in my other but wanted him. Sounds like trade worked out for both. He gave up a little more up front talent and added solid depth at WR.

Also, I made that trade before the Wes Welker suspension. So now Sanders is the for sure #2, which I like.

Maclin could be equal to Sanders, but Manning is the difference maker there.

I just got an email from NFL.com and they graded this a C+. I know this team isn't earth shattering but it is the best possible scenario that was available for me. I'm alright with it.
