I wasn't real thrilled about my draft position, and having to go with Alfred Morris at RB is less than ideal to say the least. This league is a bit weird in that it is QB-WR-WR-WR-RB-RB-TE-FLEX. I'm also a niners fan, so theres that bias.
I really think Bradford is a sleeper, and possibly starter worthy for weeks he isn't facing niners/seattle defense. I also think Vernon Davis might be worthy with Crabtree gone for so long, I could see him touching the ball a lot more.
Overall, I think this is a pretty average team and I'm going to get ran. Fortunately we are betting green plants, not dollars.
well, i definitely think you have some studs there. AJ Green is going to be the #2 or #3 fantasy WR this year. i also feel like there were some reaches there (reggie wayne 3rd round, boldin 5th round) but its hard to say because it is a 14 team draft and i don't know who was available during those picks. but i can say without a doubt that 6th round defense is absurd and way way way too early. but hey, you mentioned you were a 9rs fan and the 9rs D was going to go top 2 or 3, so go get them if you would like to root for them. sometimes fantasy is about picking players you like so you can root for them. there are certain guys i wont even draft no matter what cuz i just dont want to root for a guy i don't like to do well simply for my fantasy numbers.
and although i do like chris ivory a lot, waiting until round 7 to draft your second RB is going to hurt you a lot. keep an eye for waiver fliers and maybe snag a handcuff or 2 if they are still on the waiver wire so you can possibly get lucky with an injury.
