2015 FANTASY FOOTBALL THREAD

Is anybody thinking about going with the Zero Running Back strategy this year?

For me it will depend on where I draft and who's available. If I end up at the back of the first round I might go for two WRs to start out and get some RBs later.

Need advice. I am in a semi-keeper league and can keep 3 of the following 4 players, which should I keep? Alshon Jeffery in the 6th round, Mark Ingram in the 7th, Mike Evans in the 8th, or Deandre Hopkins in the 12th.

I'm not sure on Jeffery. He's wildly inconsistent, but he's the man at WR for them this year.

I really like Mike Evans in the 8th and Ingram should be a solid pick in the 7th.

I like Hopkins a lot. I had him last year and he ended up being a solid WR. Not sure about Mallett at QB long term though.

I think all four are solid keepers.

I have the 9th and 10th picks in a couple of my leagues and I've considered taking two stud receivers. I just don't know if I could pull the trigger though. I've always been about the running game in fantasy but near the backend of the 1st round, there's some question marks around plenty of players.

Yeah, if I have a top 4 pick I will probably take a RB, then go WR/WR with my picks in round 2 and 3.

I agree. Definitely keeping Evans and Ingram, but just can't decide on Jeffery vs Hopkins.

I always go best available, and am not afraid to go with stud WR's or TE's and pick up RB's later with snake drafts. I won my league with Frank Gore as my number 1 back last year.

2 of my 3 leagues are Auction drafts which I like better than snake drafts because you can't complain about your pick, everyone is on equal footing, you customize your team how you like it.

Two of my five teams drafted already. Aligned my picks and CBS sport said both teams picked by The Computer were A + grades. Bots are great.

There's no way I'd take CJ Anderson that high. I think he's being waaay overrated right now. Yes he had a nice half a season but I think he's still completely unproven to go that high as a RB1.

So at pick 9 or 10 would you rather take Anderson or a different back such as Forte or Murray?

You realize who the Broncos coach is, right? I'd also take a late round gamble on Montee Ball if I was in a really deep league.

Anderson was at/near the top in rushing yards when he was playing. It's a pick that could win or lose a league there's a lot of uncertainty.

Jeffery, Evans and Hopkins. Hopkins #1 out of the 4 of them. He will be a 3rd-early 4th round pick this year.
