For my two decent teams:

Draft - 10 team full PPR, 2 QB, 3 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 2 RB/WR/TE slots
QB: Stafford, Taylor, Kizer, McCown
WR: Adams, Pryor, Baldwin, Thielen, Snead, Zay Jones
RB: Freeman, McCoy, Fournette, Montgomery, Paul Perkins
TE: Doyle, Gates

Actual games started:
QB: Stafford 12, Taylor 8, McCown 6, Kizer 1 (sigh), Peterman 1 (sigh) - Rodgers was a FA pickup and stash and will start week 15
RB: McCoy 13, Freeman 11, Fournette 11, Montgomery 4, Alex Collins 4, Ellington 2, Perine 1
WR: Baldwin 12, Thielen 11, Adams 10, Bryant 9, Pryor 4, Smith-Schuster 3, Josh Gordon 1
TE: Doyle 7, Brate 4, Gates 2, Clay 2, Olsen 1

Doyle was cut early on and picked up again a few weeks later. The only guy acquired via trade was Dez.

Draft - 8 team non PPR, 1 QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 2 RB/WR/TE slots
QB: Newton, Cousins
WR: Nelson, Tate, Baldwin, OBJ (sigh), Crabtree, Marshall, Sanders
RB: Fournette, Lynch, Montgomery, Mixon
TE: Walker

Actual games started:
QB: Newton 11, Palmer 1, Cousins 1, Winston 1. Rodgers was a pickup and stash here too, deciding between him and Newton for this week
WR: Baldwin 13, Tate 10, Nelson 7, Funchess 6, Marvin Jones 3, OBJ 3, Crabtree 2, Garcon 1, Smith-Schuster 1
RB: Fournette 11, Kamara 9, Mixon 6, Montgomery 5, Lynch 3, DeMarco Murray 3
TE: Walker 7, Seferian-Jenkins 3, Ertz 3, Olsen 1

All FA pickups.

Not that different, really. Mostly just revamped the RBs.

Draft night:

RB: Rob Kelley, Derrick Henry, Tevin Coleman, Jacquizz Rodgers, Charcandrick West

WR: A. Brown, AJ Green, Keenan Allen, Golden Tate, Zay Jones, Tyler Lockett

TE: Brate

K: Prater

DEF: Rams

FIRST ROUND OF PLAYOFFS (1 SEED!)

QB: Same, added Peterman just in case.

RB: Kelley, Rodgers, West out - McKinnon, Drake, Darkwa in.

WR: Jones, Lockett out - not replaced.

TE: Brate out, Seals-Jones in.

K: Same

DEF: Rams out, was streaming - now have New Orleans and Washington.

For my playoff team:

Drafted/kept:

QB: Newton, Wentz, Trubisky

RB: D. Johnson, McCoy, Woodhead, Breida, Bernard, Gallman

WR: M. Thomas, K. Allen, Crabtree, Maclin, Kupp, Fuller

TE: Gronk, Engram, J. Thomas

K: Santos

D: Denver

Now:

QB: Goff, Trubisky, Wentz (IR)

RB: McCoy, Drake, Woodhead, B. Allen, Breida, Gallman, D. Johnson (IR)

WR: M. Thomas, K. Allen, Crabtree, Maclin, Kupp

TE: Gronkowski, Engram

K: J. Elliott, Gano

D: Denver

The main differences are that I cut Cam Newton (sucked first 2 games)* and Will Fuller (injured first 2 games) and Julius Thomas (nonfactor) to grab whatever RBs I could after D. Johnson and Woodhead went out in Week 1. Eventually I found a viable RB2 in Drake** but I played Allen most of the year. And I had a revolving door at kicker, as many teams do.

* - Our keeper rules place a premium on rookies, so I've held on to Trubisky, Breida and Gallman all year despite never playing them (maybe Gallman once). Obviously I've held on to Engram all year too.

** -- After the Ajayi trade, I had $18 in FAAB left and spent $17 on Drake. Amazingly, no one topped my bid, and lots of teams had a ton of money left. In another league, Drake went for $71.
