Would help to know how many teams and whether it's a PPR or standard league. If it's a PPR might want to consider starting Steve Smith at your flex in place of Yeldon. If this is a 12 person league, good job.

Great RBs. Love Tannehill for a solid year. Weak at WR, in a non-PPR not as big of a deal. Will be interesting to see if the early buzz on Doug Martin plays out. If so, you could package Martin or Forsett with one of your WRs and get a true stud WR. Then slide whichever one you keep in as your RB2 and keep Abdullah as the flex. Solid team though.

LeVeon went 6th? Dang. Dont like Julius Thomas this year, I think you reached on him in the 5th. I like Tannehill this year. Hopkins and Evans (how did he fall to the 4th round?!?) should be a solid WR combo. Overall, pretty solid, I'd give you a B grade.

This is a great starting team but Julius Thomas in the 5th is insane. He's not even going to play the first 3 weeks or worse and is a low TE1 anyway.

Your starters are really, really good. Evans in the 4th is a wet dream. Your first 4 picks are amazing.

Can't say I care for Williams, Parker, Flacco, Floyd, or Lockett (he's a stud but SEA is a graveyard for WRs).

Yeah I knew Thomas had an injured hand but didn't know he was going to have surgery on it. Kind of messed my draft up after that. I should have waited longer on my TE pick.

I picked up Williams to handicap Bell.

There didn't seem to be much left by the time I got to those later rounds.

Wow thats a great draft. WR needs help, but having Gronk will offset that.

Yeah Williams makes sense with Bell, wasn't thinking there.

Tell me where he needs help at WR?? I'm curious, because Cobb will be fine and Mathews will surprise a lot of people. I think he's in for a good year. Carr absolutely loves Cooper, so he'll get lots of targets.

I think you reached on Forsett as your 2nd pick. His average ADP in all my drafts was 3rd/4th round and you definitely reached on Thomas. He went late in one and undrafted in other. I like Tannehill and I'm surprised Ameer dropped that far.

I'm a Lynch owner and picked up Fred Jackson for a handcuff. I'm in a PPR league and Jackson caught the 3rd most passes last year as a RB ... do I play both of them at any point?

I currently am starting Lynch and Ivory with Yeldon in my flex spot. i also have McFadden in that whole trainwreck RB committee.

I missed the draft by mistake (wrote down the wrong day), but I am still pretty pleased with my roster.

QB: Ben Roethlisberger, Tom Brady
RB: Jonathan Stewart, Knile Davis, Alfred Blue, David Johnson
WR: Odell Beckham Jr., Calvin Johnson, Antonio Brown, Steve Smith Jr., Terrance Williams
TE: Jimmy Graham, Kyle Rudolph
K: Dan Bailey
DEF: Seahawks, 49ers

Need to upgrade at RB. Might try to work out a trade.

I definitely would not start FJax along with Lynch. Lynch and Ivory are your clear starters at RB, Yeldon's good in the flex.

Those WRs are crazy. I'd throw Calvin out there, maybe add Blue since he'll start the first 3-4 games, and you should be able to get a top notch RB1.
