Welker is out until playoffs
Fuck it, they play better without Welker and makes my decision easier.

I knew we had a fantasy football thread! You da real mvp for bumping this thread. Your team is really nice with solid depth. People are sleeping on Terrance Williams.

T-Will, Cordarrelle Patterson, Markus Wheaton and Justin Hunter are my 4 favorite WR sleepers this year. I think all have huge years and you can get them all pretty late.. The same dude stole both Cordarrelle and Hunter from me in my one league, I was so pissed. lol
Your team in that 8 team league is fucking ridiculous, especially your WR. I also like your 10 team league team. I'm really high on Victor Cruz, especially in PPR. Giants are running a more west coast scheme now and even in a completely horrible season for the Giants, that was filled with injuries and Eli's worst season, Cruz still had a decent season.
Only thing is I don't really see the need for 3 QBs and TE, unless you start multiple QB. Kaepernick and Big Ben are pretty solid options and I don't see the need to also carry Eli. Ditto with TE, especially when you have Vernon Davis, who I doubt will be on the bench much. Id cut Green because it sounds like Gates is likely to still start and at the very least they will be splitting time.
I picked 3 QBs because Big Ben was my second to last pick. At that point, I had everything filled. Usually my last 2 picks are defense and a kicker, but I drafted with some idiots. Will most likely get rid of him or Eli down the road. I picked up Green at TE, because I feel Gates will get injured again. Green looked nice last season, so if he could get some playing time then it'd be a nice backup option.

Rate my team
QB: Eli Manning
WR: DeMariyus Thomas
WR: Alshon Jeffrey
WR: Vincent Jackson
RB: Mark Ingram
RB: Alfred Morris
TE: Rob Gronkowski
K: Cody Parkey
Def: Arizona Cardinals
Bench
Joique Bell
Tre Mason
Arian Foster
DeVante Adams
Torrey Smith
Jay Cutler
Love my WR core. I have some depth too if my sleeper Adams puts in work with an injured Nelson and Smith if Kaep doesn't suck.
My RBs is probably my biggest flaw. Not a bad 1-2 punch of Ingram/Morris, but Bell has been injured preseason although, they say he's looking good for week 1. Tre Mason has a shitty o-line(picked him up round 13 though) and Arian Foster will miss several weeks with no timetable to return but he was on the board 12th round so low risk, high reward I guess?
Edit:12 team league btw
Hope Eli gets it done this year for me. Was going for Romo but they got him early.

Yahoo gave me an A, close enough.

Just got done with my draft. Had the #1 pick, took Lacy.
The squad:
Ben Roethlisberger QB
Eddie Lacy HB
Todd Gurley HB
T.Y. Hilton HB
Mike Evans WR
Martellus Bennett TE
Mike Wallace WR (in FLEX spot)
Patriots D/ST
Chandler Catanzaro K
Bench:
Cam Newton QB
Alfred Blue HB
Zach Ertz TE
D'Angelo Williams HB
Cody Latimer WR
Packers D/ST
Dan Carpenter K
I always take two Ks and two defenses. It's a 12 team league, so by the end, you don't want any skill players anyway.
I feel like this is a difficult year for #1 pick. Thunder as he mentioned took Lacy, but I've seen numerous other people talk about how Leveon Bell is clear #1 pick, or Adrian Peterson or Charles. I would personally take Bell #1, even with suspension, maybe its because I'm a Steelers fan and I'm biased but that's just me. Anyway In a 10 team league I had #2 pick and decided to take a bit of a risk and go with Adrian Peterson.
Here is my team, keep in mind though that my draft was two weeks ago, so I got Brady really late, as well as Foster who it sounds like will only miss two games now.
QB - Tom Brady
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Melvin Gordon
WR - Alshon Jeffrey
WR - AJ Green
TE - Delanie Walker
Flex - Deandre Hopkins
D - Panthers (I stream defenses and they play Jags week 1)
K - Stephen Gostkowski
Bench
Arian Foster RB
Latavius Murray RB
Jarvis Landry WR
Steve Smith WR
Phillip Rivers QB
Markus Wheaton WR
Jordan Reed TE
