Speaking of TEs, they seem grossly undervalued in this league.
For me it's a difference of one TE starting and there are 32 of them in the league vs 2 RB needed with 32 of them as well.but yea, u see different leagues with different priorities.

Rivers was the QB I was targeting after taking Gurley in the 4th. I would have taken him over 5-6 of the QBs taken ahead of him. Bridgewater was my "oh shit!" QB option, but with it being the weekend, and things slowing down, I couldn't help thinking someone might try jumping me for Rivers.

There are a couple good QB2s left, but only one option I'd be even remotely comfortable with as my QB1.

Oh, definitely. I certainly considered going RB3 over TE; it's gross how overvalued RBs become requiring two in a 16-team league. I'm more surprised by some of the WRs that went before Olsen/Kelce.

I feel the TE class is very deep after the first 4 off the board... I feel you could get a solid contributor from 5 thru 15, especially in a pass happy league...

I'm primarily talking about Olsen and Kelce though (and I'd argue you could add a third name to that 2nd tier). Their offenses may limit their ceilings some, but they're essentially an extra WR3.

There is a solid 3rd tier, but I don't think there are anywhere near 10 names on that list, and I think the drop from 3rd to 4th tier is pretty significant. Maybe not in total points, but in reliability.

Pretty good draft overall. My only surprise may be at the oder of some of the RB's.. (not shocked but if I had to go with any sort of surprise as a comment)

Was torn with my last pick. Several I debated... I like a lot of TE's left, but went with Cameron. Obviously a great TE, but even more appearling to me because Miami uses their TE's so well in the pass game.

Great pick on Tevin Coleman. Really high on him and expect him to pretty good fantasy as a rook.

Yes - I came very close to going to Coleman last round.

I wanted John Brown or Adams. I'm happy with Johnson though.

Glad Bradford made it back around to me, now just have to hope he stays healthy.

With Davante Adams, wish the injury didn't happen with Jordy, but obviously could mean a huge year for Adams now.

Was sort of avoiding Bennett since I already have Jeffery but thought the value was too good at this point.

So was that your Round 7 pick? I'm confused since it was posted in the Round 6 thread and don't wan to jump the gun.

I'm glad you took him. I would have been pretty annoyed if he made it all the way back around, after I took Olsen two rounds earlier.

Toyed with Bennett last round, just not real excited about him this year especially if Cutler starts pouting again.

Not shocked but when I made my last pick there was a gop of players I said I would be happy to get with my round 7 list... That list is about to run out. I think there might be 1 on it maybe I will luck out, but guys like Ivory, Decker, Coleman, Boldin, John Brown. (Adams after the Nelson news came out)..

So, Mingo is the first to lost his 1st round selection for the year to injury, with Nelson's ACL going kablooey.
