    Any of you playing this year?

    My league is a 0.5 ppr league. 10 teams, 3 keepers and we allow draft pick trading.

    Anyways, I have the #1 pick this year. My keepers are Andrew luck, marshawn lynch and julio Jones.

    Should I take Todd Gurley, Melvin gordon or Jeremy hill?

    Really? I like hill, I'm just scared that with green and eifert back, he won't be getting as many carries.

    Randall Cobb is also available....but rbs go fast in this league and I don't want to be stuck with just lynch

    Those are your best options for the #1 pick?

    ...Green is a WR and iFart is a TE, no need to worry about them stealing "touches"! Only player that could do that is Gio, but Hill made it evident that he is more capable of being a 3 down back than anyone else on the roster.

    My keeper options are Brandin Cooks, Sammy Watkins, and Latavius Murray. Who do you guys think I should keep?
    We have a rule that you can only keep players that were drafted after the 5th round.

    Personally I'd go with cooks. Murray could break out, but he brings a lot of risk. Trich and helu could steal work from him. Plus Im a raiders fan, and I don't see them turning the corner just yet (hope I'm wrong) so tds might be scarce.

    I'm not confident in cassell or ej Manuel in buffalo as qbs to get the ball to watkins.

    I'd probably go Brandin cooks. Brees will keep them competitive and cooks looks to be. His #1 guy. And the fact that cooks was abeaver Helps.

    If it's a non ppr league though, it might be a toss up with cooks and Murray. I feel like cooks is the more reliable pick though

    JFizz - I'd keep Melvin Gordon, but all 3 are solid options.
    I agree with you about Hill losing carries to Bernard. ESPN has Hill ranked high, Yahoo has Bernard high. Too much of a gamble in my opinion.
    I put Gordon over Gurley due to Gurley's injury.
    You already had your draft (already have rookies on your roster)?

    Nah, my keepers are Andrew luck, julio Jones and marshawn lynch. but I have the #1 pick of available players after everyone kept three players.

    Jeremy hill, mike Evans, Melvin gordon look to be the best available with that pick.

    I know hill won't lose carries to green or eifert, but I think he loses touches, because I think with both of those guys healthy, they throw the ball a little more. Plus, Bernard as you both said.

    Since it's a keeper league. I'm leaning towards Gordon. He has looked electrifying at Wisconsin and I think his skill set will translate ..... We shall see. Gordon gives me a good replacement for beast mode next year keeper wise too

    Made some trades in one of my leagues. Long story short in my 10 team 0.5 ppr league with three keepers I'll have Andrew luck, Alshon Jeffery and julio Jones as keepers.

    I have picks 1, 4 and 12

    Some players available include melving Gordon, Todd Gurley, Tj yeldon, Andre Ellington, frank gore, Carlos Hyde, Joseph randle, latavius Murray, Jonathan stewart, mike Evans, Ty Hilton, Andre Johnson, Kelvin Benjamin, Emmanuel Sanders, amari cooper

    I think Gordon, Gurley and Evans go in the first three picks.

    So do I go Gordon, Ellington and Benjamin?

    Evans, Ellington and latavius Murray?

    Gordon, Ty Hilton and latavius Murray?

    Finally won a league last night. It had been four years of making the playoffs but not winning. The fantasy Gods finally shined brightly on me after an up and down year.

    Qb: Matt Stafford
    Rb: latavius Murray
    Rb: deangelo Williams
    Rb/wr: randall Cobb
    Wr: julio Jones
    Wr: Brandon Marshall
    Te: Jordan reed
    Defense : Steelers
    Kicker: gostkowski

    After enduring injuries to Arian foster, Dion Lewis, Jamaal Charles and Andrew luck, I have no fucking idea how I won.
