Antonio Brown - WR - elite
DeMarco Murray - RB - best RB on the board at the time of 2nd pick
Amari Cooper - WR - Solid player
DeAndre Hopkins - WR - Anyone has to be better then Osweiler at QB
Mark Ingram - RB - will have less touches per game but should stay fresh and can catch
Derek Carr - QB - It may have been a reach this early
Jordan Reed - TE - best available at the pick and if healthy hes solid
Texans - DST - ended the year stepping it up
Willie Snead - I figured I can stash him away while hes suspended
Paul Perkins - could get a few touches
Eric Decker - WR - TD machine when healthy
Evan Engram - pass catching TE should get one on one matchups
Eli Manning - needed a backup and everyone else was taken
Dustin Hopkins - solid K
Jaguars - DST - could step up on Defense this year with all the FA's and with a better RB they may not be on the field as long.

Depth
QB - D Carr
RB - Murray
RB - Ingram
WR - A Brown
WR - A Cooper
WR - D Hopkins
TE - J Reed
DST - Texans
K - D Hopkins

Bench
RB - Perkins
WR - Snead, Decker
TE - Engram
DST - Jags

Second draft:

First overall. 12 teams. I can start either 1 RB/3 WR, 2 RB/2 WR or 3 RB/1 WR. 4 points TD pass and PPR.

10 team league. 20 round draft. Non-PPR. 1 point per 50 yards. 4 points per TD. 3rd overall pick. Snake style.

A. Rodgers
D. Prescott
D. Kizer

L. Miller
J. Mixon
L. Murray
J. Charles

M. Thomas
A. Robinson
L. Fitzgerald
C. Hogan
A. Thielen
T. Gabriel

H. Henry
M. Bennett
V. McDonald

Denver Broncos D/ST
Kansas City Chiefs D/ST

J. Tucker
R. Succop

12 team auction draft.

Rules:

Passing, rushing, and receiving TDs 1-9 yards are worth 6 points. 10-39 yards, 9 points. 40+, 12 points.

Scoring TDs out of position (QB running, RB receiving, WR returning kicks etc) are worth double points. So if a RB catches a TD from 40+ out, that's worth 24 points.

1 point for every 20 rushing/receiving yards. 1 point for every 60 passing yards.

FL, -1. INT, -2.

It's also PPR.

Starting lineup needs to be:

QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
WR
TE
Flex RB/WR/TE
K
D/ST

My roster:

Cam Newton

Jordan Howard (very high on him this year)
Todd Gurley
Doug Martin
Mike Gillislee
Eddie Lacy
Shane Vereen

Demaryius Thomas
Keenan Allen
Allen Robinson
Eric Decker
Pierre Garcon
Adam Thielen

Greg Olsen

Matt Prater

If this is PPR I love this team. Theo, Keenan, and Garcon all have their value go up a lot if this is PPR. I expect Keenan to be a top 10 WR in PPR this year, and Garcon is going to get a ton of targets. Theo would be a RB2 as well. The QB is a little shaky because I personally don't trust Palmer, but in a 16 team league where you clearly waited, you could probably do worse. I would have rather had someone like Dalton, Tyrod, or even Wentz as my backup though.

My league used to be 3 points 1-39, 5 points 40-49, 10 points 50-59 and 20 points for 60+.

This year it's only 3 points 1-49 and 6 points 50+.

I liked it the old way. Before someone like Tucker, Bailey, or Gostkowski was super valuable now they're just all the same.

Why so many QBs? I wouldn't waste more than 1 space on a QB if you have aaron rodgers

I drafted with a few clueless guys so QBs went faster than you expect. One guy took Luck in the 2nd round and then Matt Ryan in the third. The guy who drafted Brady (top 10) took Dalton in the 7th round. Bradford was the best left, which was scary. Bradford, Glennon, and Hoyer were the best options left lol

Those are some pretty wild scoring rules. I like when leagues incorporate different ideas into the scoring.

I like your team as well. Howard and Gurley give you 2 bell cows. D Thomas, Allen and Garcon should catch at least 80 balls each. Olsen is the ole reliable tight end. Martin and Gillislee give you good upside on your bench and possible trade bait. I've been trying to take them in as many leagues as I can. Martin has a chance to be a 3 down back and Gillislee is far more talented than Blount in the same role. If Bortles or even Henne amount to anything close to decent Robinson can be solid. If he was with a good QB he would be a stud. I've never done an auction league before but I'm willing to bet you have one of the better teams.

For trade. Every yea someone only takes two, gets screwed with injuries, and at $10 a trade to go to people at the end of the regular reason it was worth it.

0.5 PPR 10 team.

QB- D. Brees
RB- M. Gordon
RB- K. Hunt
WR- A. Green
WR- K. Allen
WR- D. Thomas
TE- Z. Ertz
FLEX- J. Crowder

B- D. Woodhead
B- R. Kelley
B- T. Williams
B- W. Snead
B- P. Rivers
B- K. Rudolph

I'm considering dropping Rivers for Burkhead? Should I do it?

Sounds like my league. My friend drafted Brady #3 overall. My plan was to wait for a QB in the mid to late rounds but Brees was there in the 6th so I grabbed him (10 team 0.5 PPR). Another guy drafted four QB's (Rodgers, Dalton, DESHAUN WATSON, and RG3!). He also drafted Deangelo Williams. Two free agents on his roster.

10-team, standard non-PPR league.

QB: Aaron Rodgers
QB: Cam Newton
WR: Antonio Brown
WR: Dez Bryant
WR: Sammy Watkins
WR: Brandon Marshall
WR: Corey Coleman
RB: Marshawn Lynch
RB: Joe Mixon
RB: Doug Martin
RB: Terrance West
TE: Greg Olsen
K: Matt Bryant
DEF: Minnesota
DEF: Baltimore

Don't go it. Some team is going to lose out on their top QB to injury (happens every year) and you are ripe to rape in a trade.
