12 Team Standard HDID

[Trautdiggity]

Ok I'll put it out for feedback. Work league, non-ppr, 2RB, 2WR, 1 Flex. I picked from the 12 spot and was dreading it but the first round surprised and i was pretty happy with the result. Overall my WR are big on upside but big question marks i think. So i'll throw it to the pen:

1. (12) Trent Richardson RB
2. (13) Alfred Morris RB
3. (36) Randall Cobb WR
4. (37) Lamar Miller RB
5. (60) Eddie Lacy RB
6. (61) Russell Wilson QB
7. (84) Giovani Bernard RB
8. (85) T.Y. Hilton WR
9. (108) Chris Givens WR
10. (109) Ben Tate RB
11. (132) Brandon Myers TE
12. (133) Kenbrell Thompkins WR
13. (156) Randy Bullock K
14. (157) Arizona DEF

You got incredible value. In my redraft, Richardson, Morris, Cobb, Miller, Lacy and Bernard all went in the top 48 picks (four rounds).

However, at some point you have to draft for lineup and not for value, and I think you waited too long to do that. You can overcome that if this is a league that actively trades, but it may be an issue if it isn't. I don't think you'll get much consistency out of that WR group, so if one of your rookie RBs starts hot, I would deal him for a stud WR.

Completely agree. Love all the RBs, but you can only start 3, so if one should-be starter is riding the pine, does that still make him a great value?

I love Hilton, but he's pretty much etched in as your WR2, and you don't have a lot of guaranteed fall-back options at WR.

And as much as I love the upside of many of the players your took in Rd 4+, that's just it -- they only have "Upside" on their resume at this point. I could foresee just as many starters as I could waiver wire fodder by Week 4.

Impressive. Givens and Thompson make a great backstop fir TY Hilton. One of the three should come up big.

Would you trade Alf and T-Rich for AP and Colston?

Basically it changes my lineup from Alf, Rich and Hilton to AP, Lacy and Colston

[Erik]

No. Ask for a better WR. Not that Colston is bad, but you should get a true fantasy WR1 if you're giving up those two.

I don't buy that AP will be head and shoulders above everyone else like he was last year. Seasons like his 2012 are exceedingly rare, and have never been repeated by the same player in consecutive years.
