28.12 | 336 | Campanaro, Michael BAL WR |
Overall Strategy:
Open the draft by taking the top TE and QB. Draft RB and WR for value beyond that.
Best Pick:
Andrew Luck 2.12. After opening the draft by taking the #1 TE in fantasy this season, Lee followed it up by taking the #1 QB late in the second round. Having only 4 pts per passing TD diminishes Luck’s value a bit more, but with the injuries to the Green Bay WR corps, Luck is still the consensus #1 QB going into the season. Starting the draft with Rob Gronkowski and Andrew Luck gave Lee a huge advantage at the start of the draft.
Worst Pick:
Jacob Tamme – 20.12. While Lee went out and scored Gronkowski with the #1 overall pick, he completely ignored the TE position until late in the draft. With 2 flex positions, 1.5 TE PPR and a best ball format, it would have been better to add a backup TE sooner. If Gronkowski goes down to injury, has a bye week or even has a week where the defense shuts him down, Lee has almost no support for the TE position.
Evaluation:
Grabbing a TE and a QB with your first two picks puts you at a big disadvantage at the RB and WR positions. Especially when the rest of the league is fading QB and pounding the RB/WR picks right out of the gate. Lee made a reasonable attempt at a recovery but ended up with Lamar Miller and Carlos Hyde as his top two RBs and Golden Tate, Charles Johnson and Anquan Boldin as his top three WRs. Lee continued to add depth at RB and WR, and made some nice middle and late round selections to help boost his points per week due to the best ball format. With a starting core of Gronkowski and Luck, if his RBs and WRs perform reasonably well from week to week, Lee is going to be hard to beat.
Steve Holloway - Draft Position 2
Pick | Overall | Selection |
1.02 | 2 | Bell, LeVeon PIT RB |
2.11 | 23 | Olsen, Greg CAR TE |

17.02 | 194 | White, James NEP RB |
18.11 | 215 | Lockett, Tyler SEA WR |
19.02 | 218 | Vinatieri, Adam IND PK |
20.11 | 239 | Buccaneers, Tampa Bay TBB Def |
21.02 | 242 | Crosby, Mason GBP PK |
22.11 | 263 | Cunningham, Benny STL RB |
23.02 | 266 | Powell, Bilal NYJ RB |
24.11 | 287 | Gresham, Jermaine ARI TE |
25.02 | 290 | Shorts, Cecil HOU WR |
26.11 | 311 | Bailey, Stedman STL WR |
27.02 | 314 | Ridley, Stevan NYJ RB |
28.11 | 335 | Wright, Jarius MIN WR |
Overall Strategy:
Draft Bell and ride out his suspension. Get a TE early and go with a solid QBBC to take full advantage of the best ball format.
Best Pick:
Tony Romo – 9.02. It’s really the back to back selection of Matt Ryan and Tony Romo that makes this such a solid selection. Holloway faded the QB position like everyone else, but landed two top 12 QBS with back to back picks at the end of 8 and beginning of 9. This is a great strategy in a normal fantasy league, but absolutely perfect QBBC in a best ball format. Holloway won’t have to worry about which QB to start from week to week and with Romo and Ryan on his team, he’ll probably finish the season in the top 5 with QB points. Well played.
Worst Pick:
Jeremy Maclin – 7.02. Aside from the obvious ‘will a KC receiver score a TD this season’ comment, the 7th round pick was Holloway’s last chance to fill in the gap that he had at RB. Taking Bell with his first pick left him short a RB for the first two weeks of the season and he only added C.J. Spiller before the 7th round. Instead of adding a 3rd RB to give him some depth, he picked up Maclin as his 4th WR and then executed his QBBC approach with his next two picks. By the time he was back on the clock at 10.11, 41 RBS has already been taken. That leaves him really weak at RB, especially the first two weeks of the season.

25.03 | 291. | Hopkins, Dustin NOS PK |
26.10 | 310. | Cassel, Matt BUF QB |
27.03 | 315. | Rice, Ray FA* RB |
28.10 | 334. | Ginn Jr., Ted CAR WR |
Overall Strategy:
Fade the quarterback position. Focus on running back and wide receiver for the early rounds, and then go back to back for a tight end by committee approach.
Best Pick:
Vincent Jackson – 7.03. Jackson is a solid WR2 in most fantasy leagues, and in a PPR league, he has a chance to be a top 20 WR. On Hindery’s team, Jackson is going to be his WR3 option and in a best ball format, Hindery will always be able to benefit every time Jackson performs well.
Worst Pick:
Hindery had some solid picks early and landed some great value at QB and WR. But in the later part of the draft, he squandered a lot of his flyer pics by taking four defenses and four place kickers. Buffalo and Justin Tucker were his first DEF and PK respectively and both of them will probably start most weeks. He would have been better off spending flyer picks on RBs and WRs rather than stockpiling a position where 75% of the players selected will not start in a given week.

25.04 | 292. | Michael, Christine SEA RB |
26.09 | 309. | Gould, Robbie CHI PK |
27.04 | 316. | Thompson, Juwan DEN RB |
28.09 | 333. | Graham, Garrett HOU TE |
Overall Strategy:
RB/WR for the first eight rounds of the draft. Fade the TE and QB position.
Best Pick:
Joique Bell – 8.09. Bell is one of those ‘hot hand’ type of backs that can turn in a 10 touch,40 yard game one week and then a 20 touch, 110 yard, 2 TD game the following week. In a normal fantasy league, you can go crazy trying to catch the highs and lows. In a best ball league – he becomes one of your flex backs every time he goes off. 8.09 is good value for him too.
Worst Pick:
Josh Hill – 10.09. In a TE Bonus PPR league, it’s important to get at least one solid TE in the first few rounds of the draft. The top ones go fast and the longer you wait, the harder it is to field a solid starter. Josh Hill has a lot of questions and it’s hard to project him as anything more than a backup TE at this point in the season. By waiting too long to get his first TE, Parsons has to hope that Hill steps into a big chunk of the points that Jimmy Graham left when he moved to Seattle.

26.08 | 308. | Santos, Cairo KCC PK |
27.05 | 317. | Langford, Jeremy CHI RB |
28.08 | 332. | Smith, Antone ATL RB |
Overall Strategy:
Hit WR early and often. Lock up NE QB situation and fade the RB position.
Best Pick:
Tom Brady – 10.08. Brady is the perfect best ball QB, especially when Jeff paired him with Jimmy Garoppolo with his 23rd round pick. Brady may or may not be suspended for the first four games of the season, but Jeff won’t have to worry either way. He landed a top 5 QB in PPG with a 10th round pick. Nice.
Worst Pick:
Arian Foster – 4.08. Takin Foster as his first RB is a huge risk for Tefertiller. He’s going to miss anywhere from four to eight weeks based on current projections and it could be even longer. By focusing on the WR so heavily early, Jeff’s top running back for the first part of the season could be Shane Vereen or Danny Woodhead.
Evaluation:
I wanted an upside RB in the 4th round after taking three very strong WRs in the first three rounds. I debated between Foster and Gurley, and eventually went with Foster due to his proven excellence. Foster is a Top5 fantasy option almost every week he is active. While I like Gurley's future, it will be difficult for him to be as effective behind the Rams' weak OLine. I knew I could get a couple of backs later to get me by, and was happy to draft Vereen and Woodhead.
In the best ball leagues, I like to load up on WRs just to take advantage of the wide variance of outcomes. In these types of leagues, you draft for upside without worry of poor outings. I just hope to have enough depth to overcome these poor WR games. The league takes my top four WR games each week. I hope to have four strong outings to pull from.
With in-season leagues, drafting for the "floor" each week is a concern. In best ball, you want as many elite games each week from your players as you can squeeze out. For this reason, I drafted three backup NFL QBs just to take advantage of any injuries which may happen since there is no waiver wire. Also, at the end of the draft, you must consider which players (and positions) will have the best chance to put up big points. This is one reason I made sure to have three TEs, three Kickers, and three Defenses.

26.07 | 307. | Johnson, Chris ARI RB |
27.06 | 318. | Scobee, Josh PIT PK |
28.07 | 331. | Carrier, Derek WAS TE |
Overall Strategy:
Fade the QB position while trying to land solid picks at RB, WR and TE. Take advantage of the BB and 1.5 TE PPR format to stockpile flyer TEs.
Best Pick:
Martellus Bennett – 4.07. In at 1.5 TE PPR league, it’s not uncommon to see three or four TEs fly off the board in the first couple rounds. Martellus Bennett is a solid tier 2 TE that will see a lot of action this season as the Chicago offense struggles to find a new identity. With early injuries to Alshon Jeffery and Kevin White possibly lost for the season, Bennett represents a nice safety blanket for Jay Cuter to look for again and again. Bennett’s size and athleticism make him an excellent target, and landing him in the middle of the 4th round is great value.
Worst Pick:
Alex Smith – 14.07. Howe waited a bit too long to take his backup QBS. Cam Newton is a fine starter and should produce well week to week. But Alex Smith is more of a game manager than an every week threat and he’s going to struggle at times this season. In a best ball format, you hope that your backup QB might fire up for a game or two and beat out your starter but Smith isn’t really a guy that’s going to do that.

27.07 | 319. | Myers, Jason JAC PK |
28.06 | 330. | Roberts, Andre WAS WR |
Overall Strategy:
Focus on the best available RB or WR early and then sprinkle in a TE or a QB when possible.
Best Pick:
LeSean McCoy – 3.07. McCoy looks like an RB2 with reasonable upside and in a best ball format, his up and down performances are reasonably protected with some solid drafting. Miglio landed a second round RB in the middle of the 3rd round. This draft happened before Fred Jackson was cut, so that doesn’t even factor into this ranking.
Worst Pick:
Tre Mason – 9.07. Mason looks to have lost his job to Todd Gurley and the St. Louis RB situation has some big question marks. Mason has very limited upside unless there’s an injury to Gurley and Miglio already had 3 RBs on his team with McCoy, Adrian Peterson and Ryan Mathews. He would have been better taking a more established back like Darren Sproles or adding a second TE given the bonus PPR for TE.

27.08 | 320. | Williams, Karlos BUF RB |
28.05 | 329. | Nicks, Hakeem TEN WR |
Overall Strategy:
Fade the QB position. Go with three top RBS and a TE to start the draft. Then add RB and WR based on who is available.
Best Pick:
Darren Sproles – 9.08. Sproles is a forgotten man in many drafts this year, especially since Philadelphia added DeMarco Murray and Ryan Mathews this off season. But in a PPR league, Sproles has the potential to turn in double-digit games week after week and in this format, he represents huge value. With a best ball format and 2 flex positions, Sproles is almost guaranteed to be in your lineup every week and he’s a great pick by Fahey at 9.08.
Worst Pick:
Kendall Wright – 7.08. The Tennessee passing game is going to be a mess this season and even though Kendall Write has some talent, he’s not a ‘must have’ guy. In a best ball format, he should produce well enough on certain weeks to make the starting lineup, but since Fahey faded the position a bit, he’s counting on Wright to put up starter numbers every week.

Overall Strategy:
Fade the QB position. Lock up solid WRs and hope one of his RB choices pans out each week.
Best Pick:
Peyton Manning QB – 8.04. With only 4 pts per passing TD, it’s not uncommon for guys to wait on a quarterback. However, this league went a bit overboard and Bitonti was able to take advantage of it. Peyton has dropped a little in our rankings, but he’s still going in the 3rd or 4th round in most leagues. To land him at 8.04 was huge value. Peyton is a good BB quarterback because there may be a week or two that he struggles and then the following week he’ll have 5 TD passes.
Worst Pick:
Isaiah Crowell RB – 9.09. Taking Crowell in a BB league isn’t a bad choice. Taking him at 9.09 is actually a reasonable draft position to take him as well. The problem with Bitonti’s team is that Crowell is his #3 back and waiting until 9.09 to take him means he’s hurting at RB. Alfred Morris and Melvin Gordon are both RB2 type of players, so it would have been better to grab a 3rd RB sooner so that he had some balance in case of injury or bye weeks.
Evaluation:
1. What was your draft strategy heading into this league?
My strategy was to target impact RB and WR early, and to wait on QB until the middle rounds, at least after round 6. Steelers WR Antonio Brown was an easy pick at 1.09, he should be very productive this season. I also have been targeting Seattle TE Jimmy Graham relatively early and was able to snag him at 2.04. I passed on several RB options to take the TE and hope that I can find those players in rounds 3 and 4. I liked targeting my WR2 and WR3 in the mid rounds, I especially like Brandon Marshall to be productive with Ryan “Fitzmagic” at the helm and Mike Wallace could be an excellent fit with Teddy Bridgewater’s deep ball ability. Sammy Watkins was a lottery ticket in round six but there should be some games where he breaks out. Seeing Peyton Manning in round 8 seemed like he was there too long and the quarterback run started around that time. I am extremely high on Sam Bradford in Chip Kelly’s offense. If healthy, he will be a fantasy machine.
2. What player on your team is the most vital to your team's success? Explain why you like that player this year.
This draft hinges on San Diego RB Melvin Gordon at 3.09 and Washington RB Alfred Morris at 4.04. Gordon worries me as his pass protection is not up to snuff and teams usually do not take chances with rookies who can’t pick-up the blitz. Morris should be steady behind Washington’s offensive line, which I have graded as a top tier option this season. To supplement the risk with Gordon, I drafted the two backs from the Cleveland RB corp as they are one of my highest rated offensive lines and I feel like whoever takes a hold of that job could be an excellent source of points. Forced to predict I think it will be Isaiah Crowell. Took a similar approach with Houston RB’s Alfred Blue and Chris Polk. Blue should have a hot start to the season and I could see him holding that job. New York Giants running back Andre Williams should be a solid choice for goal-line carries and after Rashad Jennings’ annual injury he could easily be the top back for that team. Overall I made a lot of moves at running back, hopefully at least a few of them pan out.
3. What player on your team do you feel you received the most value based on where he was drafted?
Probably Bradford in round 10. If he pans out and stays upright for sixteen games he will be drafted much higher in next year’s leagues. I like Brandon Coleman’s physical upside in round 12, and feel like Brees should be able to find him plenty during the season. I am a believer in Leonard Hankerson in round 16, especially as it’s rare that both Julio Jones and Roddy White stay healthy. Even if they do, Hankerson is a plus matchup against smaller slot corners. He’s just coming into his own and could be poised for a breakout. I just want to note that I did not mean to take two kickers with the same bye week. Something went wrong with the internet, or maybe I just got distracted but either way I wasn’t aware of Dan Carpenter pick.

Overall Strategy:
Value Based drafting as it was meant to be. Take advantage of the 1.5 TE PPR and load up on pass catching guys to flex into the lineup when they have a good game.
Best Pick:
Russell Wilson – 7.10. Typical Dodds pick. Once Andrew Luck and Aaron Rodgers were off the board, everyone avoided the QB position like it was toxic waste. But at some point, people were going to come back to it and Dodds broke the ice taking Wilson at the end of the 7th round. That’s about 50 spots lower than his current ADP and about 30 slots lower than his value is in a 4 pt passing TD league. It also touched off a QB run, allowing Dodds to scoop up more TE value while everyone scrambled to get a QB.
Worst Pick:
Matthew Stafford – 10.03. After scoring huge value with Russell Wilson at 7.10, Dodds pulls a bit of a head scratcher taking Stafford at 10.03. Not that Stafford isn’t a good pick. Not that taking him in the 10th round isn’t good value. He will definitely put up top 10 numbers so landing him in the 10th is great. The question is why? Dodds already landed his starting QB with Wilson a couple rounds earlier. Stafford has the same bye week so Dodds still needed a 3rd QB with his next pick. There were plenty of other quality QBs still available, so waiting another round wouldn’t have cost him much. Stafford was the right pick for a team that didn’t need him. It’s a bit odd to call Stafford the ‘worst’ pick, but there were a couple other options that Dodds could have taken here given the huge value he found with Wilson at 7.10.
Evaluation:
1. In this league, would you rather target more running backs or wide receivers in the first five rounds. Does it matter what draft position you have?
If RBs get drafted at a normal rate, I prefer to take RBs early in a best ball. If you don't get some horses in this format, you may find yourself with zeroes late in the year as a lot of RBs will miss a few games through the year. Clearly though, I don't go into any draft thinking I have to take any kind of position at a spot. I like to pounce on the value that is present.
2. Who is the one player you are targeting in the middle rounds of drafts this year? Explain why you are high on this player this year.
TE Heath Miller is coming at a huge discount despite being a guy who will receive extended targets early in the year with Bell and Bryant suspensions.
3. How much emphasis do you put in exploiting weekly match-ups when selecting your team? Is it more important in a best ball league?
I think you want to make sure you have solid coverage in all weeks. For example, If your plan is to have three Defs, It's likely a better tactic to have their bye weeks on different weeks.

26.02 | 302. | Asiata, Matt MIN RB |
27.11 | 323. | Quarless, Andrew GBP TE |
28.02 | 326. | Toon, Nick NOS WR |
Overall Strategy:
Start the draft with 3 RB and 3 WR for the first 6 picks. Stockpile a couple TE flyers in case of an injury.
Best Pick:
Ben Roethlisberger – 7.11. This league faded the QB position a lot, but Brimacombe was smart enough to grab a second tier guy before the QB run happened in the 8th and 9th rounds. With Le’Veon Bell suspended for two games, Roethlisberger is going to have to focus on winning through the air early. He’s also a ‘tough as nails’ QB who will be on the field if he’s breathing and finds a way to win. Grabbing him late in the 7th round is huge vaue.
Worst Pick:
Richard Rodgers – 10.02. I don’t think the Rodgers is a bad pick in a 1.5 TE PPR league, especially with the injuries that the Packers have at WR. But spending a 10th round pick on him seems pretty high – even in a best ball format. Guys like Josh Hill and Antonio Gates have bigger upside potential and they were still on the board when Brimacombe took Rodgers. Rodgers might jump up and steal a TD or two this season, but he probably won’t reach 10th round value.
Evaluation:
1. You drafted two Eagles wide receivers, Nelson Agholor and Josh Huff. How do you see the Eagles passing game shaping up this year?
The Eagles offense always feels like one of the safest offenses for picking fantasy players from. Chip Kelly loves his Pac-12 players and continues to draft them at a high rate and taking Agholor in the first round he will be confident in him and get him involved in the offense early. Agholor looks to be one of the front runners for rookie of the year. He comes into an offense that loves to play quick and move the ball down the field and most of all an offense that just lost Jeremy Maclin and his 86/1329/10 2014 statline. Chip Kelly will not hesitate to get Agholor involved right from the start of the season similar to what he did with Jordan Matthews last season (67/872/8). Grabbing Josh Huff later was just an insurance policy to get a second piece of the Eagles offense and he is a candidate to over take Riley Cooper for the WR3 duties.
2. Choose two players that you selected later in the draft and explain why you have interest in them this year.
Terrance Williams is starting to intrigue me just based on the offense he plays in. He feels like a guy that should have broke out in a big way a year ago but some how missed the boat. Well I am banking on his low ADP because of this and taking a shot at him and getting a small piece of the Cowboys offense is not a bad idea. Dez Bryant will be seeing lots of double coverage and Romo will have to look elsewhere to find open space down the field, so why not Williams? Another player I have been starting to like very late is TE Richard Rodgers. He is another guy that probably should have broke away a season ago and took hold of the Packers starting TE position. Now with Jordy Nelson sidelined for an entire season and Cobb banged up early I would rather go the route of getting a piece of the Packers offense without over paying for Adams or taking late shots on Montgomery or Janis.
3. The goal of the Footballguys Players Championship Best Ball league is to have the most points at the end of Week 16. Explain your strategy for creating a championship team.
Pretty much just a big mix of everything. I wanted safe options, high upside picks, handcuffs, young guys, old guys, and players that play in emerging offenses. At QB I really liked what I have been hearing about the Steelers offense and went ahead and took Roethlisberger early in the draft, I later backed him up with Blake Bortles who is playing on a sneaky emerging young offense in Jacksonville. I grabbed Nick Foles as a QB3 just because he was a starter and he fell to my team at such a late pick. I went early on WR's in the draft with Randall Cobb and Calvin Johnson, so I missed out on some bigger RB names and had to go with a tandem of Joseph Randle, Mark Ingram (Khiry Robinson as handcuff), and Giovani Bernard. I had to take a lot of stabs on guys like Charles Sims, Montee Ball, Matt Asiata and Branden Oliver later just to make sure I could get some decent production at the RB position in this Best Ball format. My WR group I felt good about with taking guys in solid offenses, Cobb (Green Bay), Johnson (Detroit), Agholor (Philadelphia), and Williams (Dallas) and followed it up with value guys such as Torrey Smith, Josh Huff, Mohamed Sanu and a couple of swing for the fences plays in Jaelen Strong and Nick Toon. At TE I invested in the Miami Dolphins offense and put my trust in Jordan Cameron and took some low end value TE's in Richard Rodgers and Jace Amaro to back him up.

27.12 | 324. | Woods, Robert BUF WR |
28.01 | 325. | Sims, Dion MIA TE |
Overall Strategy:
Draft for value at the late turn, and take what comes to you.
Best Pick:
Aaron Rodgers – 4.01. After a solid start to the draft, Jene added a QB that is going to put up solid points every week. Rodgers took a bit of a hit when Jordy Nelson went down, but he’s still one of the top QBS in the league and he’s worth a high 4th round pick to get him. Drafting on the back turn, Jene couldn’t expect the QB position to fade as much as it did, but it’s doubtful that Rodgers would have been there again at 5.11 so that doesn’t diminish the value of this pick.
Worst Pick:
Andre Ellington – 3.12. Ellington isn’t a bad pick in a PPR league, but there are a lot of questions in the Arizona backfield. With Chris Johnson and David Johnson in the mix, it’s unclear just how much upside Ellington has. Taking him at the end of the 3rd is a bit of a reach, especially with guys like Joseph Randle and Alfred Morris still on the board.
