Fantasy League With Reds Players

Brayan Pena had on a Patriots hat and Tom Brady jersey so I asked him to please not deflate the tires on my wheelchair.

Anyways, it's a lot of money to get in ($1,000, I think, with the winnings much larger), and I didn't have to pay because my brother's partner bought me in (I couldn't spend that kind of money for that).

I was picking 10th and starting positions are QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, FLEX, K, D/ST.

Tell me what you think of my team:

1)  Jeremy Hill- needs to cut down on the fumbles, but I still think he could put up top 5 RB numbers, especially if Dalton gets into a rhythm and throws to AJ on the outside and Eifert up the seams.

2)  Antonio Brown- I got him at 11?!  I hate the Steelers, but he's an amazing talent and will put up huge numbers.  As much as I hate to say it, I think the Steelers have a damn good offense.  Plus, leave all emotion out of fantasy football if you want a chance at a title.

3)  Travis Kelce- I would have loved to have gotten him later, but I think his preseason has him rising up boards and I think he'll score a lot of TDs and he can stretch the field.

4)  Emmmanuel Sanders- Peyton Manning may not be the Peyton Manning of old, but he's still Peyton Manning, and, with Julius Thomas gone, Sanders will get a lot more red zone targets and more targets in general.

5)  Keenan Allen- apparently looking damn good in camp and has good chemistry with Rivers, so this might be a good pick.

6)  Mark Ingram- not great but running backs were flying off the board, so I needed to grab one.  He could at least have a solid year.

7)  Eli Manning- Beckham Jr. is an animal, and Cruz back should be dangerous, which I think Eli has a good year.

8)  Davante Adams- with Jordy Nelson out the entire year, I'm shocked that I got him this late and I think he's a huge sleeper.

9)  Nelson Agholor- Eagles are a disaster but I think he could have a solid year.

10)  Tre Mason- Great early year pick with Gurley being out.  Should be ok all year long.

11)  Markus Wheaton- I think he'll have a big year, also, and, like I said, leave emotion out of it.

12)  Seahawks D/ST- doesn't get much better

13)  Antonio Gates- only fell this far because he'll be out the first four, so it's great value.

14)  Bridgewater- I didn't realize that there was only 14 rounds and I would have taken Gostowski, but kickers aren't real people anyways and I can just get one off the waiver wire.

Thoughts?  How'd I do?!

ridiculously deep at WR, and thin at RB may want to try to pull a trade for a RB. I'd dangle Sanders out there. Don't think he'll repeat what he did last year
