Time to gently caress up the ADPs on ESPN by drafting blake bortles in the first round over and over and over.

Come on, guys. You know this is his time. Bortles is gonna break out and shine.

Don't worry, there are literally thousands of idiots already on there drafting completely random players and largely ruining most of the utility of mock drafts.

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
My gut tells me to keep John Brown over Lorenzo Taliaferro but you're cutting a ton of RBs and those you're left with are a mess so you may have to keep Taliaferro just in case.


Edit: totally missed Kenny Britt. I agree. He's trash poop, pick another NFC West WR (I choose Brown)

I'd keep either Paul Richardson or John Brown over Kenny Britt I think.

Are you in a league where kickers from Philly have some kind of magical bonus? No? Then drop your kicker and keep both Britt and Brown. Richardson has an ACL tear that will likely keep him down.

Pick up to 5 to drop from this list for a rookie draft.

12 team, .5 PPR, 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 WRT, 1 K, 2 DB, 2 DL, 2 LB, 1 Dflex

Derek Carr QB OAK
Ryan Tannehill QB MIA
Tony Romo QB DAL
Ben Tate RB PIT
Bishop Sankey RB TEN
Matt Forte RB CHI
Shane Vereen RB NYG
Stevan Ridley RB NYJ
A. J. Green WR CIN
Charles Johnson WR MIN
Cordarrelle Patterson WR MIN
Golden Tate WR DET
Jordan Matthews WR PHI
Jordy Nelson WR GB
Kendall Wright WR TEN
Paul Richardson WR SEA
Philly Brown WR CAR
Jace Amaro TE NYJ
Travis Kelce TE KC
Cody Parkey K PHI
James Ihedigbo DB DET
Kemal Ishmael DB ATL
Charles Johnson DL CAR
Muhammad Wilkerson DL NYJ
Rob Ninkovich DL NE
Avery Williamson LB TEN
Brian Cushing LB HOU
Luke Kuechly LB CAR
Paul Posluszny LB JAC
Paul Worrilow LB ATL

At present I'm considering jettisoning:

Worrilow (he's had some good times the last couple years, but there's a lot of competition there now and he's a bad football man)
Cushing (always hurt)
Philly Brown
Kemal Ishmael

Anyone still think Ridley is worth keeping around given there's like 73 RBs in NY? Should I just punt on Patterson since I really have enough WR as it is anyway? Just dump both DBs? Should I just get rid of Carr (or trade Tony?)

Sankey should be better next season because he wasn't able to do the spring events last year because of school also he should get more touches(hopefully)

It's less a worry of MIN not making use of his talents and more him learning to run a route and be good at football outside of being a freakish athlete.

Randle has good speed to attack a defense, and he may have an opportunity to prove himself with a larger role in 2015. Veteran Darren McFadden can be penciled in as the team's starter right now, but his injury history reads like Infinite Jest. If McFadden is hurt again, Randle could step in to start and produce RB1 numbers because of that incredible offensive line. Keep an eye on Randle on and off the field during training camp.

This is from the footballguys email. I feel like I've seen some of this guys work on rotoworld and it always gives me a good laugh.

4for4 just released their first rankings. I used them to win my league last year and to win some money in dailies. Only thing that looked out of the ordinary was Tom Brady's value (28th)and Trave Kelce(3rd)

I think Kelce went as the third TE in our current goon mock draft

VDay

Kelce could easily be a top 3 (or two) TE, you're just kind of taking a giant gamble if you take him. I'm going to bite on him hard this year because I had him last year so I think my main league will sleep on him a bit since I also had Charles so I was probably the only one watching any Chiefs games, but the possibility of him only being inexplicably used in like 60% of plays again and catching 1-2 balls a game is still completely terrifying. I mean Fasano's gone so you figured he has to become a bigger part of that offense, but it's Andy Reid so who loving knows.

I'd probably go:

1. Gronk
2. Graham
3. Olsen
4. Kelce
5. Any other TE interchangeably

Still a lot to learn about what Graham's role is going to be like in Seattle, though...
