1) Bullpenn (@DunceKaep)
- Coming off a disappointing 3rd place finish after surging to finish the regular season with 6 consecutive wins in 2014, Bullpenn looks to bounce back with arguably his best draft yet. In his arsenal he has a trio of WRs (Brown, Hilton, and Evans) who could each average upwards to 1300-1500 yds and 9-12 tds, the best quarterback in the game (Aaron Rodgers), and a tight end (Jordan Cameron) who looks to have a breakout year. RB is the only position that raises any red flags, but with 4 at his disposal (Hyde, Martin, Randle, and Foster) chances are at least 2 will be successful. Out of the 4, Arian Foster is the real gem to marvel at. Despite his early season injury, if Bullpenn can weather the storm he may get a top 5 caliber rb who he managed to grab in the 8th round.
2) Logicallylethal (@Logicallylethal)
- After falling just short of the ultimate goal last year, Logic looks to finish the job this time around with a roster loaded with talent and most importantly depth. Logic has 5 WRs (AJ Green, Cobb, Tate, A. Johnson, B. Marshall) that are likely to hit the 1000 yard mark and 2 others who have the potential to hit that mark as well (Michael Floyd and Marques Colston). At RB Jamaal Charles has a chance to be a top 3 fantasy player if he returns to his elite form in 2013. After that though there are a lot of question marks. Jonathan Stewart is penciled in as the starter, but his health has always been a lingering problem his entire career. CJ Spiller is another injury risk, who surprisingly enough, is already hurt and will be out the first 2 weeks. Crowell and Freeman are unknowns that could contribute or be complete busts. Logic took a lot of risks with his selections at RB but if Spiller can stay healthy he could be a Reggie Bush/Matt Forte esque RB in the Saints offense. Stewart could be a 1100-1200 yard back with Carolina if he is able to play 14-16 games this season.
3) Jimmy Rustlers (@Cave_Johnson)
- Rustlers barely missed the playoffs last year with a late season collapse (3 game losing streak to end the season). This year’s team is well built from top to bottom. Demaryius Thomas, Brandin Cooks, and Jeremy Maclin could all rack up 1200 + yards this season as #1 receivers in their respected offenses. DT will likely surpass 1400 yards again as long as Peyton is healthy. Rustlers is also strong at RB with PPR monster Matt Forte (who had 102 recs last year) and Lamar Miller who is looking to breakout this year. I like Miller to have a Lesean Mccoy type year if Miami gives him the carries he deserves. A. Robinson and Wheaton are solid flex players who should get 800-900 yards this year (maybe more).
4) Lester Hayes (@Nosferatu)
- Lester was leading the South End Zone division and the power rankings for a good stretch last year until late season troubles (losing 5 of 6 to end the season) ended his playoff hopes. This year Lester is back Megatron and AP as his top two picks. Two players that could potentially be fantasy MVP contenders or big disappointments. I am a believer in Megatron and AP, but the injury bug is a real concern for these two. Lester did a good job at drafting depth at RB though. Forsett, Ingram, and Gore should all be productive backs. Fitzgerald and Boldin are two vets who probably don’t have that high of a ceiling, but are reliable for at least 800-900 yards (upwards to 1000-1100). If AP and Megatron can have monster years, Lester could steal the South End Zone division and grab that coveted Fantasy Championsip.
5) Phi Samma (@Uhsplit)
- A new comer to the league, Phi Samma comes with a team loaded with RB depth. CJ Anderson, Jeremy Hill, Lesean Mccoy, and Chris Ivory are all RBs who should eclipse the 1000 yard mark. At QB, Phi Samma has two QBs who have monster fantasy production in Brees and Stafford. Samma’s WR core is solid, but outside of Edelman there isn’t a WR that is established with a track record proven to produce. Jordan Matthews is the Eagles new #1 and should have a good year (1200 yards 8 tds), but you never know with Chip Kelly as he likes to spread his touches around. Charles Johnson is a toss up to produce this year. I lean more towards Mike Wallace getting the bulk of the targets in the Vikings offense. But even so, with AP back will Bridgewater throw enough to warrant enough fantasy value for Charles Johnson? Stevie Johnson is someone I like. An underrated value in fantasy as River’s #2 he could return to 1000 yard form.
6) Sonny’s Superb Team (@SonnyCID)
- Sonny is another new comer looking to make a name for himself in his first fantasy season in Bigger Faster Stronger Louder. His duo of RB (Marshawn and Demarco) should be a strong anchor for the year. You can pencil in Marshawn for 1200-1300 yards and 10+ tds each year. Demarco is the real wild card. Coming off a career year, will he get enough carries to accumulate 1400+ yards or will be more of a 1100-1200 yard back? WR doesn’t look great, but they aren’t bad either. Devante Adams has risen to fantasy prominence and should get the targets from Aaron Rodgers, but I don’t think he’s that great of a talent. I see his ceiling around 1100-1200 yards, probably closer to 1000-1100. Jarvis Landry is a young talent who has a lot of value this league since it rewards 1 pt for every 50 return yards. I like Mike Wallace to be productive but Latavius Murray and Brian Quick are both unproven. Although Quick played like a quality WR last year before getting hurt and with Foles at QB that could add to his value.
7) Harold’s Team (@HaroldSeattle)
- Harold seems to be a high risk high reward type of gambler when it comes to drafting. Yahoo assesses Harold’s draft as one with questionable reaches, but I say Harold is just home run hitter with his draft selections. Julio Jones, Matt Ryan and Leveon Bell are close guarantees to have an elite fantasy year. Steve Smith Sr and Deandre Hopkins are sure fire 1000 + yard receivers. The big question marks that received the most criticism from Yahoo are the picks with Cooper, Abdullah, and Agholor. On the surface it might not seem smart to draft a WR in a Raiders offense, but Derek Carr is highly underrated and Cooper could have an explosive rookie year (1100-1200 yards). Abdullah is no guarantee to even start, but if he earns himself the starting role or significant playing time he could be an extremely versatile back in that Detroit offense. Agholor is likely to start the season off as the #3, but if he produces then Chip Kelly will get him targets in the fast paced high powered Eagles offense.
8) Uwdawgfan (@uwdawgfan)
- Uwdawgfan finished 6-8 last year, because his team lacked quality depth. Seems like the same problem may have carried over. The team is strong up top with Peyton, Odell, Lacy, and E. Sanders, but not a lot of guaranteed production after that. Watkins is a rare talent who possesses good size and great speed, but the QB throwing the WR the ball is almost as important as the WR’s talent when it comes to fantasy. Ellington is a fringe flex player at best. He will likely be the Cards starter, but the RB position is not likely to produce a lot of pts and Ellington is an average RB in my opinion. Decker is solid but T. Williams is a toss up in terms of production. He could be the Cowboys #2 or he could be the #3 or #4.
9) Los Pollos Shermanos (@Itsmytime)
- A playoff team last year, Shermanos had one of the more disappointing drafts in the league. Luck, Dez, and J. Graham are all elite fantasy players at their position. Desean Jackson, Alfred Morris, Vincent Jackson and Keenan Allen are all solid, but it probably isn’t’ the best idea to bank on TJ Yeldon and Danny Woodhead to produce as fantasy starters. There is still hope though. Desean could surprise some by returning to his 1300 yd form. Alfred Morris is reliable. Keenan Allen may bounce back if Stevie Johnson doesn’t steal the bulk of his targets. And Vincent Jackson could have a bounce back year, but it depends on Winston’s success at QB.
10) The Boz (@blstoker)
- The Boz’s team looks like a great fantasy team…in 2017 or 2018. Too many reaches on young players that are not likely to produce enough this year to warrant a starting spot on a fantasy roster. Alshon and Gronk are reliable and elite players at their position but outside of that the roster is littered with question marks. Bradford shows potential so far in that potent Eagles offense, but with so many other QBs that are proven producers in fantasy it probably wasn’t the best idea to rely on an injury risk like Bradford. His other QB Russell Wilson is one of the few that are better in real life than he is in fantasy. John Brown and Doug Baldwin are fringe flex players and should not be WR2 and WR3 on a playoff caliber team. Melvin Gordon is a player I like and should get 1100 yards this year. Zac Stacy, Branden Oliver, Christine Michael (who are currently penciled in as starters) may not even get 10 carries total each week. Not looking good so far for first timer Boz returning to fantasy after a long layoff.
