here's my roster from 12 team auction draft:
QB-Rivers
RB-AP
RB-Gore
RB/WR-Brandin Cooks
WR-AJ Green
WR-Desean jackson
TE-Ebron
FLEX-Sankey
D/ST-Denver
K-Dawson
BE-Eli Manning
BE-Kelvin Benjamin
BE-Brian Hartline
BE-Sproles
BE-Jace Amaro
BE-Jeremy Hill
Didnt really want ebron as the starting TE but everyone else kept bidding up the other TEs. Then i went to the bathroom and martellus bennett was taken for $1
. Hopefully stafford will throw a decent amount of times to ebron though.
Should i put in Sproles for Cooks for week 1? Cooks is unproven at this point but im not sure how many touches Sproles will get behind mccoy.
Also was thinking of offering jeremy hill straight up for carlos hyde in case something happens to gore. Thoughts on that?

12 teamer.
Shady and AJ were my keepers. Dez my 1st round pick. I acquired AJ by trading away Marshawn late last season.

Bears.
Any other choices? I'm not high on either of those match-ups. Pittsburgh would actually be my choice of streamer Week 1, actually. Was the Jets until Carr was named the starter but I think they're still a good play as well. Like St. Louis as well.

I ended up taking Montee Ball in the 3rd round and Andre Ellington in the 5th round in my draft
Two guys I liked but wasn't really trying to draft
Charles and Spiller (6th round) are my other backs

I'm playing Cleveland D week one. Not a ton of faith in Pitt offense, especially early in the year. Always start slow

Lions vs Giants

I would rank them:
Pittsburgh
Chicago
Detroit
Philadelphia
Houston
Cleveland
Safest bet would probably be Chicago, highest upside is probably Philadelphia but that could also be a trap game due to their defense being on the field a lot because of how quick their offensive possessions go by.

only real weak spot is at TE, but the team is strong enough to compensate there. i agree that you should start cordarelle at the FLex
i drafted the cleveland defense. good secondary and strong linebacker core with Dansby.
it was them or NO.

I drafted CP as my #1 WR last night in that new dynasty league i'm in... Got him with the last pick in the 4th. Hopefully it pays off.

League was a majority rules vote for vetoing trades at first. After I accepted that trade yesterday, he changed it to where he can approve or veto a trade. It's ridiculous cause it isn't a one sided trade.
Commish is posting questions on the message board to the other guy like why would you trade you best RB(charles) to me? It's like he doesn't think highly of Forte. Is Forte not as good as Charles?
I'm done with that league. No one has a problem with the trade but him. Eff this dictatorship league. I'm glad this is a free league and not my money league. Gonna find another league to sign up

Hey Guys,
Thoughts/Question about my team. 12 team .5PPR
QB: Kaepernick
RB: McCoy
RB: Murray
WR: J Nelson
WR: R White
TE: Olsen
FLEX: CJ Spiller
K:
D: Seattle
Bench
R Rice
B Pierce
J Bell
Andre Williams
Doug Baldwin
R Streater
J Boykin
I know I'm weak at reciever, hopefully Roddy doesnt get hurt. I took Boykin in rd 15 because I couldnt believe he was still available. My issues are I have both Roddy and Nelson on byes in week 9 so keeping Boykin seems stupid. My hopes are after week 1 to trade 1 or 2 of my RBs for a WR2. There are several people starving for RBs in my league but for some reason they all fell into my lap draft day.
I need to drop 1 to pick up a kicker, I think its between Boykin and Williams since I am so stacked at RB, but I obviously would love to stash him for later on. I am also considering dropping Streater.
Any thoughts?

Yea i know how you feel
Both Charles and Forte finished in the top 5 last year among RBs. I don't think Charles will repeat the same numbers he did last year. Seems like he's basing his decision on last years stats.

really weak bench WR's
wasted pick drafting pierce, definitely should have gone WR with that pick
best bet is to try and flip Ray Rice to an owner in need of a RB.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah I wasn't planning on taking so many RBs but there was a run on WRs around when i took Pierce. Week 9 is going to be rough as it looks now but hopefully Rice will come back from suspension and look good so people want him.

for some reason every year i start with Detroit defense, no idea why.
hope they can kill it against NY so i can get a good start to the year.
always gotta win the first matchup in fantasy. sucks to start 0-1

That's risky as hell drafting him as your WR1. Could pay off though.

The only reason I did is because of the RB's that were available at picks 20 and 21 ( .25 pts per carry in this league) . Then I had to wait til pick 40 to get CP... Dynasty league and CP's value should be round 2-3 at worst after this year.

Bears safer. Eagles potentially more rewarding, but riskier.
Plenty of others already echoed my sentiments, but I'm slightly amazed that you were able to nab Green, DreJ, && Cordarrelle. If CP lives up to the hype, that could be murderous.
My team after Toretto's draft last night. 12 teams I had 6th overall pick
QB- Brees
RB1- Ben Tate
Rb2- Gore
Wr1- Megatron
Wr2- Fitz
TE- Vernon Davis
Flex- Brandin Cooks
K- Nick Folk
Def- New England
Bench: Watkins, Deangelo Williams, Steve Smith, Blount, James Jones, Dwayne Bowe
I really didn't wanna take a QB with my 2nd overall pick but all I heard in my head was "500 yards, 500 yards"
Forgot all about the rewards for certain yard achievements.
Guess I might as well keep forgetting it too since Cam ain't throwing for 500 in a game.
Cleveland
About to be giving folks that work. I like Griffin this year, drafted him in one of my leagues as well. Pitta's slept on quite a bit also, this will be his best season yet IMO.
Keep Boykin, he'll give you great value this year as your 15th rd pick. I'd personally drop Streater, Baldwin, Williams, in that order.
Starters look good. Murray should approach 80 receptions if he stays healthy. White's injury-plagued year was an aberration IMO, based off his career track record. Huge bounce back season in order...if SF lets Kaep open up the offense, team will be that much better.
I agree, you could trade Pierce/Rice or Bell for more WR depth. Definitely have the leverage to do so with the slew of backs.
For K...McManus. Matt Prater's suspension replacement for Denver's first four games. Can almost guarantee you nobody has him in your league...got him on all of my teams.

Hell of a lot better than having Percy && Terrance Williams as your first 2 WRs like my boy has
