    Depends on the what pick I am. My league is .5 PPR and if I'm in the top 6 pick of the draft I almost always go zero RB and then grab two RB's in round 2 and 3. If I'm towards the end I usually go best available WR/RB and then grab the other position on the return. I'm not sure what pick I have this year yet in my league. That will be determined in a few weeks but I'm really hoping to go in the early picks again to grab either Brown, Julio, or OBJ. My ideal spot is usually to go about pick 3 or 4. The guys I play with in my league still always go RB in picks 1, 2, 3.

    Antonio Brown probably is my first pick. Especially with the bet he made with Brandon Marshall, he has some extra motivation

    Solid, I expect yeldon to be a sleeper this year. Also if he's available I advise you to get deangelo Williams if Bell is out the first four weeks. Saved my a--- last year

    I'm hoping Josh gordon will go underrated or fall into one of the last rounds. Think he'll make a p good comeback

    My big philosophy will picking Allen, Ware and even Karlos Williams is that I believe McCoy, Charles and Forsett will have injuries this year, and all 3 of those backs have proven to have big games, and have big carries when they're the feature back. Picking them late is low risk/high reward.

    Hopefully Jeffry stays healthy because he's going to be the main target for Cutler this season.

    Also, Chris Hogan, IMO will be huge for the Pats. Same as Bennett. I'm sure of it. I think Edelman is going to have injury problems, and Hogan seems to be ahead of Amendola right now.

    As far as some of the wide receiver picks, I love picking rookies/2nd year players in later rounds. Usually one of them ends up becoming a a huge asset.

    Always value multiple tight ends, top tier defenses and Gostkowski.
