I draft 5th in an eight team league. Loaded squads in 8. Haven't done that in a while, it's probably funner to be honest. Loaded teams and still guys on the waiver wire early on

I think it really depends on # of teams. Less than 12 I really think you can go WR/WR. 12 forces a RB. 10 I want to go WR/RB/WR but RB's keep falling to me that i have to take.. Example, the mock i'm doing now, Lynch was there at 7 and CJ Anderson was there at 14 so i had to go RB/RB. I mean I like Anderson but I feel like if you could get a WR1 there that's a better pick. Or what if you went WR at 1 & took someone like Anderson with the 2nd? Antonio at 7? I got Jamaal Charles at 5 last night in my draft. Good, especially in a PPR, but even then he doesn't blow me away. It's not like days when you got Emmitt or Barry or Terrell early.

Not an Antonio fan at 7, i'm targeting Demaryius Thomas

I'd love to get Thomas and Dez or Thomas and Julio.
I like a lot of WR's around the 4th and 5th rounds. Andre Johnson and Jeremy Maclin to be exact. Or maybe a Desean Jackson or Devante Parker

Or maybe a Desean Jackson or Devante Parker Wow we disagree quite a bit on WRs. I think Denver is going to shock people how they look this year. I guess if you are talking TDs, yes Thomas might get even more. But I bet his yards & catches are way down. Denver is going to go away from Manning throwing like crazy. I guess that means I should like Anderson more. Maclin on the Chiefs? With Alex who doesn't throw TDs to WRs? Honestly I think there are more sleeper RBs now than WRs. But a few - I like flats pick, I like Eddie Royal late & both Packers WRs (Cobb & Adams) went to WR1 & WR2 with Jordy injury.

I usually take QB's late but if Andrew Luck is there in the 3rd, i'm pulling the trigger.

Hate Eli all you want, he will have a big fantasy year. Can't argue targeting Luck there but I bet he & Rodgers go in the 2nd. If you could somehow get Hilton in the 4th after Luck? Huge combo.

I hope he goes in the second so i don't take him.

Going WR first paid off for you. I really think it's a strong strategy.

Especially in my draft spot. #9 in a 10 team draft. Do you want a low end RB1 and a WR1 or 2 WR1's?
That's a pretty decent draft. I had both Beckham and Bryant last year. They make a nice combo.

Racist.

Got the 4th pick in my draft tonight. Going through some practice runs and I think I'll need to go RB, WR, WR first three rounds. It's not a PPR league, so I just can't see myself passing up AP, Lacy, Bell, Charles, or Lynch for a WR.

I'm thinking the Browns Defense is a viable last-round option with our soft opening month.
