I decided to load up on RB when you guys decided to pass up a ton

Your team is stacked! :o

[BratPack]

I had pretty much the draft I thought I would apart from a couple of picks. I have a nice safe core group and a pretty decent group of lottery tickets. I can't complain with my team from dead last pick

[Mat0369]

I dunno. I look at my team and hate it it 1 minute and love it the next. Would have looked better with my boy Shady, but Forsett with Trestman will be good.

A few times I got caught out like Olsen and Ertz, had I also known so many RB's would fall I probably would have taken Landry ahead of Gio

[Jukes]

I reached for a guy who will lead the league in points scored comfortably? (The only guy who will challenge that went the next pick)

[Jay]

@Jukes - I'm not saying Luck won't have a massive fantasy year. I just hate the value there at pick 7 especially with guys like DT, OBJ and Gronk still there. Could have got him with your next pick I think.. Wouldn't have taken a QB until the 20-30 range myself.. PPR dilutes the value of QBs.

Yeah the Shady thing was weird. Was scrambling around google trying to find out if he was injured or something - because every mock I did had him going early teens.

I'm pretty happy but inexperience got me on Ryan. Ideally I wanted to wait on a QB and end up with like Eli or Tannehill. But didn't really like any of the flex players at that spot, and was always going to take Abdullah.

Brown at #3 would have raised some eyebrows, but I'm really confident with that one. I'll guess we'll find out if it was the right move soon enough. Think I have you week 1 too ;)

[RiOtChEsS]

just drafted this in a standard 10 team h2h league

[BratPack]

Okay let me do what I normally do at this time of year and analyze my draft tonight and explain why I took my picks over others

Round 1: Julio Jones
I pretty much knew I was going to get a comfortable #1 wideout in my spot except for Antonio Brown, I knew he'd be gone. I'm thrilled it's Julio though, I think he's at worst the #2 wideout in all of fantasy this year and I picked him up as WR #4. A no brainer first round pick in a PPR league

Round 2: C.J Anderson
I wasn't expecting Anderson to fall to me, I pretty much from my mocks had resigned myself to taking a wideout and Jeremy Hill. When Anderson was still there it raised a conundrum, ultimately the PPR aspect tipped me to take Anderson, if Denver rolls they play no huddle which means Anderson will get passes, Hill may lose some to Gio. A good solid anchor at RB, which as it turns out I'd end up needing

Round 3: Brandin Cooks
Thrilled to have him still on the board at 36, he's a solid #2 Wideout with #1 upside. No hesitation on that pick.

Round 4: Frank Gore
This one was one of my tougher picks, I think from memory it was the first time I let the clock run almost out before I chose. I considered quite a few players here. Gordon was too unproven, Morris I wasn't feeling, Too early for Ellington. I almost took Tom Brady here but ultimately I guessed (Correctly as it turns out) there wouldn't be much left at RB when it came back to me if I took Brady there. So I went safe with Frank Gore, He doesn't have the upside of Gordon, but he also has a much better floor.

Round 5: Sammy Watkins
Would've been happy with Landry, even if I don't think he's going the breakout a lot of people believe.  Simple case of I rate Watkins higher.

Round 6: Jonathan Stewart
Again I thought here. I don't like Stewart all that much but he has solid #2 upside and at 61 makes a pretty good #3 for me. Plus he was the last of the backs I'd feel "comfortable" being an every week starter, again it was a case of "When in doubt, take a Running Back"

Round 7: Nelson Agholor
I'll be honest, this may be my favorite pick of my draft tonight. I rate Agholor way higher than this, I was considering him way back 23 picks earlier. He has #2 upside and looks like a great talent. Very happy to slot him in at #4 on my WR chart.

Round 8: Devonta Freeman
And we follow my best with possibly my worst pick, I don't HATE the pick, I think whatever happens in Atlanta that Freeman is the pass catching back and thus he's a valuable asset in this league, it's what happened as a result that makes it bad, I misread the wind of the draft and should've taken my QB here, by the time it got back to me pretty much everyone I liked as a starter was gone.

Round 9: Eli Manning
As I said everyone I liked was gone, Eli was the last guy I felt comfortable starting, even as bad as he was last year he was still #11 in scoring with this leagues rules. I was planning to back him up but circumstances in the draft forced me to change that strategy. Hopefully he's back to something like his best this season

Round 10: Eddie Royal
Now I start my lottery ticket gathering. Royal was Cutler's go to man in Denver and Jeffery is banged up. I think Royal is a very solid pick here

Round 11: Jeff Janis
Another lottery ticket, has Rodgers throwing to him, he's not going to make an impact in the first couple of weeks I think but at some point he'll break out.

Round 12: Michael Crabtree
This was one of those picks where the clock ran red again. I was thinking of a few players actually, I was flipping through the different sections thinking "Do I take a Tight End? Do I take a Defence? Do I take a backup for Eli? Do I take a running back?" Crabtree honestly wasn't even thought of until there was about 15 seconds left, when I took one last look at wide recievers and saw him and was like "Oh! I forgot about him. YOINK!". I think he's a great pickup here, and judging by the amount of people going "I wanted Crabtree" in chat, I wasn't alone in that thought.

Round 13: Denard Robinson
It was a case of "I probably need another running back, who has the least competition and could help me?". That's the Nard Dog, in hindsight I probably should've taken Hillman as a handcuff here but at the time I only had 4 RBs so I was looking for someone who could help me now, not someone who can help me if someone gets injured.

Round 14: Austin Sefarian-Jenkins
At this point Tight Ends are pretty much all the same, I'm happy enough with ASJ. I rate him higher than some who went before him so I can't complain.

And then it was the usual Defense and Kicker to end

All in all I'm happy enough, got a good solid core, plenty of lottery tickets and a good chance, which from the #12 I'll take

[Holz]

not sure how I went, perhaps dont have the biggest raw point scorers but went for the best in each postion hoping that would help.

top 3 QB - Wilson
top 3 WR - Thomas
#1 TE - Gronk
top 5 K - Vinatieri
top 2 D - Bills

running backs are weak though with two 20-25 guys and backup WR 20-25

[RiOtChEsS]

just drafted this in a standard 10 team h2h league

dont think il even bother drafting another team, i cant see myself falling into a better situation

That team is ridiculous

Who did you grab all those??

[Capper]

Already had a look on waivers and have grabbed someone
