How Did I Do?

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Honestly did not feel very good about this draft, so I'm wondering if anyone on here would care to give me their opinion? Searching for some confidence boosting material lol.

10 teams, standard points, drafting from the 2nd spot (snake).

QB: Carr, Luck
RB: D Johnson, Lynch, Gore, Rawls, C West
WR: M Thomas, Hopkins, Jeffery, A Robinson, S Shepard
TE: Eifert, Fleener
D/ST: Chiefs
K: Janikowski

Mainly I am really worried about my WR group. Its loaded with talent, but its probably the most questionable group of guys I've ever owned. I got burned badly by Hopkins & A-Rob last season so I really didn't want to take them. But I needed WRs at that point in the draft and they kept tumbling down the board & were BPA according to their ADPs. All of the guys that I was targetting were getting sniped 1-2 spots before me so I was getting pretty frustrated. Stuck with my "let the draft fall to you" mentality and couldn't pass up the value.

I would not be upset. Like you, I'm not big on Hopkins or Robinson. But they will be target monsters.

 

[SteelersPride]

order your rings

Wasn't all that excited about Jeffery either. Philly's spread offense doesn't attack down the field very much. Agholor & Sproles will get most of the work between the hashes.

i love jeffrey this year , i like ur team

I think you are pretty solid. ARob and Hopkins have to do better than last year, right?

I wouldn't wast time worrying about your receiver group. Looks like the strength of your team to me.

Yes, you got some guys who underachieved last year, but that is exactly why you were able to draft them so cheap. Hopkins had a much better QB situation and Henne will be a mild upgrade for ARob when Bortles eventually completes his face plant.

 

[The Foot]

Outstanding team, what are you talking about that team is great, period!

 

[The Foot]

But grab chris Carson to back up rawls

my thoughts in a few of my drafts, to a T

 

[Barilko]

so u draft at 2 and 19
you get DJ

and you think you WRs are shaky

Well lets see

there is no way you get Antonio or Julio or OBJ and Evans or Nelson and TY at 19 (well maybe TY)

but you do get A Rob Jeff Hopkins Thomas and Shep I would say you did fantastic Well done....

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Alright gents, thanks for your support! Now if you wouldn't mind, how would you play week 1?
@TKOSpikes @SteelersPride @tlance @femurov @The Foot @Barilko

Thinking:
QB - Carr
RB1 - Johnson
RB2 - Lynch
WR1 - Thomas
WR2 - ?
Flex (W/R/T) - ?
TE - Eifert

WR2 & Flex possibilites:
Jeffery (@WAS... Norman matchup? Yikes),
Hopkins (vJAX... Decent secondary)
Gore (@LAR... Guaranteed volume)
Shepard (@DAL... Intriguing matchup)
C West (@NE... Probably going to be playing from behind & he figures to be involved in pass game)
Fleener (@MIN... No thanks)

Thinking Gore in the Flex. WR2 can't decide on

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Forgot that ODB may not be playing... Shepard might be a good play!?

 

[The Foot]

Hopkins and gore at flex

 

[TKOSpikes]

Hopkins and Shepard (if no OBJ). Gore if OBJ plays.

?

 

[SteelersPride]

id play gore over lynch

put in jeffrey

if ODB plays id play fleener, yes fleener, remember snead is suspended

if he doesnt i play shephard

 

[Stomp]

Hopkins and Jeffery for me. Would be Gore if Luck were starting, but just can't see the Colts moving the ball all that well with Tolzien.

which is y i see a lot of gore n dump offs

 

[femurov]

I think Hopkins can lock into that WR spot. As far as a flex? Tough call. I would probably go with Gore. With no PPR, I think he gets the most volume.
