Miami D will be +points all year. Love where you got Kelce..
foster may be back sooner than everyone is expecting.
Love the John Brown pick

 

[ScopeY]

You need ellington/foster to alternate there health issues, and you'll be solid... and if they both maintain it all year... you'll have a top team

 

[orangemonk]

my RB situation is definitely scary -- especially week 9 when charles/ellington/foster/davis are all on bye. but foster was too good of a bargain to pass up. This team will be a lot of fun whenever he is back on the field.

mike evans I'm not super high on, got a little stuck there, but should be serviceable. Hoping the John Brown hype train is for real.

overall, I like the way this draft played out for me, moreso than my other team I posted.

This is what I was going to say. It looks like your RB2 is going to make or break your team. If Ellington can hold it down until Foster returns, then you should be good especially in PPR. A bit high for Romo, but Kelce and Vereen look like steals in those rounds.

Good luck

agree with Romo being high but this league is tricky though with no trades. 9 QBs had gone by the end of round 5. As high as I am on Bradford, and I still targeted him later, I didn't want him being my QB 1 in a league where I was unable to upgrade my QB outside of the wire. Same w/ Tannehill. Unpredictable league to the point where I just wanted to lock someone in (Big Ben went with the last pick of round 2).

 

[reNew Orleans]

looks like a great team - lots of upside.

If Ellington gets dinged up then youll be hurting though. basically what everyone else said.
