QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
Flex
DEF
K

i pick 6th. got some good advice last year (a few people put me on to josh gordon, who won 2 leagues for me single handedly.)

do i go QB here? it doesn't appear that i'll get AP, charles, mccoy, forte here. should i take peyton or should i take CJ or jimmy graham? i need one big stallion to produce every week. then i have to find that sleeper. thanks guys, draft is in 45 min.

There are a lot of QB's. I would look at Lacy or J Graham, maybe Montee Ball here.

Make sure your top 5 picks are solid contributors, then draft upside players after that.

yeah i can get a qb late. any thoughts on calvin? strongly considering graham, with 16 teams he sets me apart at that position.

Wait on qb. Rb is always thin so I'd go rb/wr/rb or wr/rb/rb first 3 picks. Wait on TE also, to me Pitta/Rudolph/Miller are decent enough & if you feel lucky Wright later for if & when Gronk goes down.

i agree rb is thin..graham very enticing though because outside of a healthy gronk and julius thomas nobody comes close.

If it's PPR see if you can get Vereen in round 3. He's going late in drafts I've been in and guy is a PPR beast.

i tried to nab vereen but he was taken a few picks ahead of me. i decided to take julius thomas round 2 in lieu of the welker suspension. qb's started flying off the board at a rapid pace so i had to take matt ryan, who i hope is primed for a big year.

my team so far...

QB ryan
RB forte
RB richardson
WR v jax
WR wallace
TE thomas

i'm hurting at WR but i didn't have much of an option, positions getting thin in a hurry. reached on thomas.
