Hoping to go with Dalvin Cook. Incredible production when he plays. He is in a contract year so he will be pushing himself unless its a structural injury. Very favorable strength of schedule. |

I had the 7th pick and decided to go with Mahomes after the major run of backs. |

I have been playing FF for 25 years. I've never had the #1 pick. Of course, this is the year I get it. |

Not sure what pick I have yet but I had McCaffrey last year and I'm thinking he may slow a bit since he had the ball on every play all year I'm thinking Barkely may have a better year Also can't believe you took Mahomrs do early. Have you seen his wife? Disgusting |

Very favorable strength of schedule. Unless you have a couple Hawg Asses in your league who oddly go QB in the first (sorry, Hawger) then you're probably choosing between Cook and Henry. I'm wary of Cook's injury history and think Henry could be a potential bust (he had a few curious ups and downs before last year, and he doesn't catch the ball). |

I was in a Dolphin-like position in one draft (mid-round) and tried to trade down pre-draft because I didn't think there'd be much difference between the second round guys and the 6th pick overall or whatever it was. I think I'd go with say Hopkins and Kelce or Godwin and Josh Jackson (two second rounders) over the KC rookie (first rounder) if I could have trade down and grabbed a second and third in exchange for my first and 10th or whatever. That would give me two picks in the third and two picks in the second. I'd take that over one mid to late round pick in the first. |

Here is how it all shook out: Dalvin Cook Miles Sanders Cooper Kupp A.J. Brown Mark Andrews Marquise Brown Tom Brady David Montgomery Diontae Johnson Christian Kirk Joe Burrow Harrison Butker Bears DST Bryan Edwards Yes, I let Furious Styles and the silver and black pack dupe me into taking a flyer on their Raider heartthrob. It's an ok draft. Nothing great but lots of potential. I never go QB early and the more I thought about it the more I thought Brady is going to be great with the offensive talent assembled in TB. Miles Sanders was a mistake in the second. I should have gone WR and waited to see who fell. I was still operating under a 12 team mindset. You see that a guy like Montgomery, who will probably get a boatload of carries, was still there much later and would have been an ok low end RB2. That left me with having a lot of prayers with my WR. I went in wanting to draft Burrow. I think he is going to be an immediate star. |

Hope you do well but Montgomery is horrible. I also think you reached for Hollywood brown. |

we had a 14 team league and there's just not enough talent to go 'round. This will be a very strange fantasy season. |

Our league is 12 teams and 21 rounds. You must draft the following: 3 QB 6 RB 6WR 2 TE 2 Defenses 2 Kickers |

CBS thought it was my best pick of the draft. I think you are wrong on Brady but we shall see. He isn't a guy I was ever high on drafting in the past and I really talked myself into him this year. |

You wouldn't think two teams one way or another would make a difference but it really has an impact. 10 seemed amateurish to me. We had the chance to let new guys in but the league wanted to give the guys who opted out a bye because of the peculiarities of this year. One of the prospective new members just joined up with an existing owner. In addition to two dropping a couple of the guys changed their names to counter protest type of stuff. OK if that really makes you feel better about life. We had the draft on line for the first time. I still got together with a couple of the guys which made it better but it still was not nearly as fun as drafting live. |

I think 14 is the max - 16 and above and every team starts to look like a practice squad with a star or two. I think teams with Kareem Hunt are going to end up in the playoffs - he's way too talented to be sitting on the bench for too long. He's going to catch passes out of the backfield and as a WR. He's not the typical "RB2" - he's a RB1 paying a price for personal misconduct. He will give you a beautiful return. |

I've got a cousin in a ten team league who somehow has the following players: Zeke Aaron Jones Godwin Mostert I correctly guessed that two QBs went in the first two rounds which left those players for him to choose from. On top of that, some dumbass drafted Deshaun Watson in the early second round, making it three QBs out of the first 20 picks. My next question was how he managed to get Ryan Pace to join his league. |

My first opponent had three guys playing last night (Kelce, Fuller and Chiefs) so I wake up to being down big. In reality Fuller was the only one who overperformed but Buetker did as well so no real damage. Happy to see Montgomery was a full participant because Sanders is hurt. I think he will have a nice game against the Lions. |

I suck. 0-1-1. Unfortunately, the Cook got paid rather than having to play for his contract so neither he nor the team has an incentive to run him into the ground now. Montgomery has been coming up big. I look pretty good at RB now. It might be time to start Burrow. |

first win and now 1-1-1 I picked Andrews on the come over more reliable players and that decision is not looking good. Even in his great opening day he didn't get a lot of yards |

I'm on a two game winning streak now, with Dalvin Cook leading the charge. My QB are also starting to play some ball. I'm really surprised that my WR haven't been better. There is no one putting up any kind of big numbers and I don't foresee anyone doing it all year. Marquise Brown might have a big game at some point |

3-1, nice to win on a off week by Mahomes. Lamb and Hunt had nice weeks for me. |
