Thanks for the feedback.  However my first 4 picks were also bad. because they forced the players I took in 5 to 9, trying to get by with second rate pass catchers.  I drafted poorly.  You learn from your mistakes in chess and such, and I have one of the worst losing streaks in this leagues history to learn from.  I put together one of the worst teams ever, a real stinker, and I had season and Super Bowl MVP Mahomes, but my team stunk.  I laid one of the biggest eggs ever with my draft picks.  At least the Titanic made it to the iceberg, my team sunk leaving port.   So one year I had Henry and Allen, the next year Barkley and Mahomes.  I know now that may work in some leagues, but not in this league. All my losses show that.  I put together one of THE WORST teams ever in this league, a real stinker.  

This year I'm going in with a list of who the 32 teams top pass catchers are going to be, guys on a team that are going to get 10 passes a game.  These guys that go games without getting passes like Thielen, they don't make up for the top pass catchers I passed over taking Barkley or Mahomes. 

WR when healthy are solid options but keep in mind, dual threat running backs and dual threat QBs can also get you consistent high points because they have multiple ways to accumulate points.
