not bad, how many teams in your league?

I'm not sure about your RBs, with the AP injury, Lynch may be suspended, and I don't trust Hillis or Bush too much. Hillis was the biggest fantasy bust last year. I drafted him and kept waiting for him to get off, and he kept playing like shit or being hurt. he did look solid for KC the other night, so we'll see.

I dunno about Cam this year. I have a feeling he's not gonna out up numbers like last year. I think defenses will adjust to him and he'll have a little bit of a sophomore slump, but who knows, he may be better

my league doesn't draft until September 1st... still have damn near 3 weeks

@nrrodgers....Looks good...Especially QB....I agree with meta tho..RB's look sketchy...Jamal Charles is back and Dexter MCcluster should get more touches...If Lynch dosent get suspended and AP stays healthy it will work..But those are Ifs....Good luck...Im drafting in 2 weeks..

Pretty good roster, I'd personally replace health miller with Jared Cook which in terms of skill is the second best TE in the league imo

I'm amazed you got so many good players, how many teams are in your league. Try to trade Hillis and Moore, your WR's could use a little work.

my thinking with hillis is that when the chiefs get in the red zone they are gonna use him since he is a bigger back and can pound the ball in there. i also think even with the possibility of a 4 game suspension lynch will tear it up. and ap was the only decent quality back left by the time i got to pick a running back. I think Cam will still have a great year and because of his feet he is a double threat and could net me more points that way.

There are 8 teams in my league. I only picked up moore in case someone got injured but i could easily drop him. Jared cook was already taken and thats why i went with heath miller. Figured hes usually good for 5-10 Tds a season

baring injury Peyton Hillis will have a nice solid comeback year.....
yeah thats why i picked up hillis because im expecting the chiefs to use him more in the red zone and figured he is due for a comeback year.

I'd pick up Mendenhall and just sit on him. You might have a starting RB halfway through the season. Definitely worth a FA pick.

who would u drop to pick him up tho is the question. thinking bout dropping john kasay and picking up another def not sure who tho
drop John Kasay. I wouldn't waste a roster spot on a backup kicker. just drop Kaeding and pick up someone else when he has a bye

Glad we're not having our draft until the end of this month. I pick 9th in a 12 team league. Might have to make some drastic trades to get a good qb with that pick number. We'll see though.

What websites yall use for FF mock drafts during the draft? I've been using fftoolbox the past few seasons.

Do you have an IR? Drop Kasay, pick up Mendenhall, move him to IR, and then if you REALLY need two kickers on your roster, pick Kasay back up.
