Grade my team
I think we have had a thread for this in the past.. so feel free to post your own team below.
I just drafted last night in my 14-team, 1/2 ppr league. Return yards count for the individual and the flex position also can be a QB. Our league used to have six points for passing td's, but returned it to four points a couple years ago. Despite that, QBs go off the board way to soon. In fact, eleven were taken in the first round and five in the second round. My strategy was to wait on QB and load up on other positions, as I picked seventh. Team is below. The number in parenthesis is my ranking of these players within their positional groups (didn't combine them into one board), just for general interest. 1 - Jamaal Charles - KC RB (1) 2 - Antonio Brown - Pit WR (1) 3 - Teddy Bridgewater - Min QB (18) 4 - C.J. Spiller - NO RB (8) - due to return yards 5 - Latavius Murray - Oak RB (14) 6 - DaVante Adams - GB WR (10) 7 - Blake Bortles - Jax QB (23) 8 - Darren Sproles - Phi RB (25) - I think he will get return yards in the regular season 9 - Percy Harvin - Buf WR (17) - due to return yards 10 - Denard Robinson - Jax RB (40) 11 - Leonard Hankerson - Atl WR (42) 12 - Brian Quick - StL WR (44) 13 - Charles Clay - Buf TE (10) 14 - Chiefs D (14) 15 - Brandon McManus - Den K (2) I think I regret the Percy Harvin pick already. Beckham was taken two picks before I took Bridgewater, and I think I paniced on QB a bit, although I do like Teddy. If I had know Bortles would drop into the 7th, I think I would have taken another top-tier WR, but most were scooped up, and I wasn't feeling Demaryius Thomas.

Yep.. 1 point for every 15 yards returned. It really does throw a wrench on some of the receiver and running backs. Sproles has been a monster with the 1/2 ppr and return yards, for example.

Anyone done a draft only league? I've taken Odell Beckham and Megatron so far not really sure the strategy here.

You might start a bit slow with Agolor, but we shall see I guess. I got burned my Dwayne Allen the two or three times I started him last year, but he seemed to catch touchdowns every other week. I like your depth.

Yeah, I might start Ladarius Green early with Gates suspended. Someone took Maclin right before I was up and chose Agholor, so that was a bummer. Other than that, I was pretty happy.

I like you WR depth. And I'm assuming you took Bell 8th overall?

Yep, that was my dream draft... by ignoring QB, while sixteen went off in the first 28 picks, I got a possible #1 RB and the #1 WR.
My TE is a dumpster fire, but I picked up Eric Ebron, and I will keep scouring the wire over the first couple weeks for someone who stands out. Dropped Hankerson for that, and also dropped Brian Quick to pick up Ty Montgomery, who is returning kicks and punts for GB and will also be a WR. Just in case the Adams hype train doesn't pan out and Montgomery ends up being targeted alot.

Yeah that's what I was getting at. Both of them should been gone before like pick 6 or 8. Maybe sooner. Brown had 1600+ yards and 129 catches last year lol.. and we all know about Jamaal
