I'm picking 10th of 10 man league. Going to target top 3 wr's since top rb's will be gone in rounds 1 and 2. Looking for thoughts on sleeper RB's in rounds 3,4, or even 5. Thoughts? Not PPR...

so are you taking Gronk with the first pick..
then Dez Bryant
then Cooks from NO
then Hopkins
then trying to get a RB ..because now we will commit to the 8th round for the QB and 10th round for the starting tight end..
5 and 6th pick will be RB's
where you get Stewart or Hyde..say Stewart
then Hyde coming back..
should get Fitsgerald here at 7th.
at 8th ya get ELI in a steal
9th ya get McFadden
10th ya get Ertz as a backup TE
then11th Vereen from the Giants..will get his touches at the goal line
snatch up Brigewater for backup QB at 12th
then Reggie Bush to handcuff Hyde
14 and 15 d and kicker don't mean squat..
Denver D and Bryant of ATl.
keep in mind Gronk at 1st pick comes w/12 or 13 TD's
only Dez who you can get at the 11th player chosen and Brown from Pitt who you have no chance of getting will score more TD's

Probably Julio Jones and Dez with #1 and#2?
Every mock draft I do with this strategy I end up with Gore, Stewart, Forsett, or Hyde at RB's.

If you end up with Forsett that's a STEAL!!! My sleeper RB's are Ivory, Blount, D Martin, Hyde, McFadden and even Rashaad Jennings.
If Tevin Coleman can get a full shot for Atlanta that kid has talent!! Not sure about the O line though, but he's a stud IF he gets playing time

I just did my 2nd team today and got Julio and Dez back to back :0074 My RB's are Alfred Morris and Chris Ivory. Got Blount on the bench. Also got Andre Johnson in the flex.
I've done the back to back elite WR strategy for two years now and ended up with two fantasy titles! Elite WR's is the way to go IMO! All the hype on RB's early is overrated. You just gotta be real sharp on the handful of sleepers who have major upside.
Last season I had D Thomas/J Jones/Gronk as my horses and had Lamar Miller as my main RB who I drafted very late. As we know ended up having a very solid season.
FWIW....I am VERY high on Brandin Cooks/Saints!!! Think he's in for a huge break out season...like Top 5 elite numbers! I reached a little and took him my 2nd pick in my big money league, but knew he wouldn't be there coming back. I chose him over Demaryous and Megatron! That's how high I am on this kid! Gotta gamble sometimes to win leagues. Just like gambling the obvious isn't always the way to go.
Thanks for posting in the fantasy forum!! Needs more traffic over here :0074

Thanks Hudson, I feel better now about this strategy. I'm big on the top 4 wr's. Not thrilled about Calvin Johnson with age and injury. Targeting Brown, J Jones, Bryant, maybe Gronk if I can pull the trigger.
Middle pack RB's I like Forsett, Gore, Ivory, Stewart. Late rounds McFadden and D. Williams for weeks 1 &2. Picking at 8pm tonight, I'll check back with results. Thx for input guys.

1. Julio Jones
2. Calvin Johnson
3. Lamar Miller
4. Justin Forsett
5. Davante Adams
6. Tony Romo
7. Isaiah Crowell
8. Matt Stafford
9. Darren McFadden
10. Mike Wallace
11. Deangelo Williams
12. Eagles D
13. Zach Ertz
14. Dan Bailey
I was shocked to get Miller and Forsett at 3 & 4. Felt I reached a bit to get Romo at 6, but kept him away from my top competition in my division who has Dez. Crowell has great upside and McFadden has a shot to start in Dallas so took a shot. Added Wallace just for WR depth, Adams is my sleeper to put up good numbers. might target Richard Rodgers on waiver wire as he will start in GB and get increased redzone looks with Nelson out. Thoughts???:0corn:0corn

Sick team bro!!!! Wow!! I like it A LOT!!! If you get a full season from Calvin you will score ton of points every week!! Good job
Tevin Coleman wins the starting job!! Watch this kid Monday night!! Not saying he's AP or anything but could very well be a hidden gem
Yeah I was gonna grab him but was picked right in front of me late rounds. Thanks for the input, I like my team going into the season. Should contend if I dont get any serious injuries. I have 1st pick in waiver wire going into this week too. Scanning for diamonds in the rough...
