Were there any players that you targeted for the later rounds of your draft?

I was looking at guys like Carlos Hyde, Devonta Freeman, Cody Latimer, and John Brown.

Knile Davis should get more carries this year in KC

FIFY, RB's are over ratted

I bet you $10 you dont even sniff the playoffs with that team. Rbs are extremely important to fantasy football success. Especially this year. If you have a top 4 pick, you should always go RB.

Edit: Maybe you should spend more time in high school as well.

McCoy, Petersen, Forte, Charles, Manning.... in that order.
I got Calvin Johnson with my first pick and I picked seventh. So that's about right. No chance I would have taken him over McCoy, Peterson, Forte or Manning. MAYBE Charles but only because I do not trust that Charles is going to be great behind that terrible o-line.

Where would you have drafted Eddie Lacy? I had the 9th pick overall and was able to grab him.

Ouch. Morris is good. But hopefully you have depth at other positions to work a trade for a decent RB1 or even a high-end RB2 to go along with Alf.
Thankfully I'm in a league where the scoring is tilted towards the quarterbacks, so being weak at running back isn't the end of the world, but obviously I want running backs who are going to be playing. If that isn't Lamar Miller, I need to be looking elsewhere.

That's a steal to get Lacy at #9. He should be top 6 or so. I'll take a stab at the previous 8: McCoy, AP, Charles, Forte, Manning, Johnson, Graham and either Rodgers or Brees, right?

I got Marshawn Lynch at #16 in my draft. People are worried he is going to break down after all the carries lately. Hope they're wrong. But I would have taken Graham before Lynch; the gap between him and the rest of the TEs is huge. That's free money. Still kinda regret not taking Graham at #7 instead of Megatron but we'll see...
