For me id rather take a shot like I did last year with Andre Ellington (my non keeper ) instead of having a back up kicker

I like to grab one safe backup rb, 2 legit back up wr's and load up on lottery tickets

same here, basically if your a promising rb I will grab you. Sucks when the best ones produce in your non keepers. Had Cameron/THomas last year and could only start 1 TE and cant use the flex on it which made me

I do not participate in a lot of auction drafts, due to time.

My goal for them is to grab that 4th or 5th best qb (staff/luck)
Get 2 of the 3 next best wr's behind Megatron (green, thomas, dez)
get one of the next 2 TE's (thomas or gronk)
get the best D
get 3 of the top 15 rb's with an outside chance for a top 5 back

I really wanted Ball to be the #1 RB but $45 was too much for me to get everything else I wanted


but I got my lottery tickets

yeah you have to hit with those big rb's when taking that risk


I will keep that theory in a snake draft, because I can overcome a few hick ups with waiver wire

In an auction, I am more about the big wr's and grab that lesser back

Never did an auction one yet

I have 4 leagues this year totaling $500. I need to win one or place 2nd in 2 to make a profit

I have a big decision in my keeper league. Keep Le'Veon Bell with a 6th rounder or Randall Cobb with a 10th ?

bell is the safer bet

late second rd player for a 6th vs a late third rd player for a 10th

it is close though

blount stealing red zone carries from bell
nelson and lacy stealing catches from cobb


it's close, but bell is going get even more targets IMO this season out of the backfield

With our keeper league I think It will depend on where I end up picking in round 1.

If I have a pick in the top 3, I might do Bell. That way I can end up with 2 top RB's and then swing a QB and WR on the way back or another RB that falls and WR
