Keepers- Adrian Peterson, AJ Green
Rd 3- Jamaal Charles
Rd 4- Jordy Nelson
Rd 5- Matt Forte
Rd 6- Marvin Jones Jr
Rd 7- Russell Wilson
Rd 8- Larry Fitzgerald
Rd 9- Tyler Eifert
Rd 10- Jimmy Graham
Rd 11- Andy Dalton
Rd 12- Tyler Boyd
Rd 13- Houston D
Rd 14- Defensive Player
Rd 15- kicker
Where did I go wrong?
I honestly love your draft.
- AP, Charles and Forte makes for a proven (albeit aging) group of RBs.
- Solid at WR. I think Marv will get a ton of targets in DET, so there's value there
- Double dipped at TE and I love both picks. Graham a bounce back candidate.
- Double dipped at QB and I like both. Andy has outproduced Pig Ben in fantasy over the last 4 years. Let others buy the Ben hype and buy low on Andy.
I always look for 2 things: value and how safe a pick is. I think you have a nice balance of "safe" players (AP, Forte, Fitz, Green, Wilson) and value (Eifert, Graham, Charles, Dalton). Some of those players may be aging, but its hard to envision guys like AP, Forte and Fitz suddenly becoming worthless, barring injury.
Maybe the grade isn't factoring in your keepers?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
