Hawkeye21 1,856 Posted August 15, 2016 Had my first serious draft Sunday that has money involved. It's a 12 team league, 1 PPR, TDs over 40 yards are 10 point bonus, players that return kicks and punts get 6 points for TDs. Roster is 1QB, 2RBs, 3WRs, 1TE, 1RB/WR/TE, 1DST and 1K with 6 bench spots. No position requirements during the draft. I had the 8th pick which I really dislike this year. I decided to wait on QB and TE in order to load up on RBs and WRs since there are still 4 weeks before the season starts and I don't want any injuries to hurt my team. QBs and TEs went much earlier than expected so I was left scrapping the bottom of the barrel. There were teams taking their second QB and TEs before I grabbed my first. QB Andy Dalton Ryan Fitzpatrick RB Ezekial Elliott Gio Bernard Duke Jonson T.J. Yeldon Charles Sims DeAndre Washington WR Allen Robinson Brandin Cooks Golden Tate Tyler Lockett Travis Benjamin Josh Doctson TE Zach Miller DST Vikings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rholio 339 Posted August 15, 2016 Looks good. Second RB is a potential weak spot, but there's decent options there. Great WRs. TE is a real weakness, might need some waiver wire help there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 1,856 Posted August 16, 2016 TE is a major weakness for me but it wasn't planned. One guy in my league took Gronk in the first round and Reed in the third round. Others were taking their starting TEs in the normal rounds but all were taking a second TE in the next couple rounds which caught me off guard. While they were taking second TEs and QBs I was grabbing the best RBs and WRs available. Miller was bascally the best TE available but I'm not too concerned this far before the season starts though. I have a feeling a lot of guys will be dropping one of their extra TEs to make room for another waiver player. There were actually two teams that took three TEs. Almost every team has two QBs, two TEs and some even have two defenses. They all have 4 to 5 RBs and I'm the only one with 6. With us draft 4 weeks before the season starts I wanted to load up on the positions that are hardest to fill and that's RB and WR. I think replacing the QB, TE and finding a K are easy right before the season starts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,467 Posted August 16, 2016 Don't see any problem with your Te postion , Miller came on late last season diffently a workable player. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 1,856 Posted August 26, 2016 One of the guys in my league that drafted 3 TEs already dropped Eifert. I picked him up right away even though he's going to missed the first couple games most likely. I basically got him for free though which just proved my strategy right on waiting on TE in the draft. The big question on my mind right now is if I should pick up Morris off waivers as a handcuff to Zeke. I would like to do it but not sure who I would drop. I'm also going to have to drop a player when I pick up my kicker. This is the hardest part when drafting all these guys and no kicker, I have to drop one.

Byrdman5 104 Posted August 26, 2016 I would drop doc for kicker. I was ok with Miller coming into the season, but now I'm thinking it might have been the Gase effect. Glad u got Eifert u should be good at TE now. I would wait to drop Washington for Morris until after this weeks preseason game. I think u must handcuff since rb2 spot is a ?

chcougar1 6 Posted August 27, 2016 You almost killed it. QB and TE could be better but you should be okay. You are stacked at WR for PPR and you have great potential with the guys you took for rb2 and later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
