Honestly, I'd seriously consider Antonio Brown if I were drafting first overall this year.

Good point about the number of teams.

I'm in another 8 team (baby) league where position scarcity works a little differently...its the Tier 1 players at each position that are crucial (Tier 2 and 3 depth is huge). We have IDP players as well...

So I am wondering if waiting until round 3 for Gronk and 4 for JJ Watt is smart...or is too early/late.

Kids up front Calgary is organizing fantasy football leagues it looks like. $100 buy in, with $600 going to the winner and the other $400 going to the charity. I know CP has a good relationship with this charity, does anyone know anything about these leagues?

Hi, opinions please. What's everyone think about Manziel as a stash in a dynasty league. I got Dalton as my starter and Hoyer as the backup. Very little left on waivers.

Manziel was a bust even before he was drafted, don't bother.

No Winston. Top 5 QBs left based on last season's points are Orton, Sanchez, Austin Davis, Cousins and Drew Stanton. This is the first year with 16 teams and 19 players drafted. Slim pickings at every position.

Ouch...well with RG III's durability and past performance (Handcuff logic) I would probably consider Cousins or maybe Sanchez?

I'm in a 12 team standard NFL.com league. I'm torn as to whether I should keep both Dez Bryant and A.J. Green as keepers. Based on the way our league operates, they both qualify as 1st round picks, which means I would lose my 1st & 2nd rounders in the upcoming draft if I kept both.

Basically, I guess my question is two-fold: 1.] what is the chance that either guy would be available in the second round (if I only kept one); and 2.] as good as both guys are, is it poor strategy to invest so much into two Wide Receivers?

I'm leaning towards only keeping Bryant, but ... I'm just not sure.

Your receivers and TE are outstanding. Can't say I love your RBs though.

If you have an early first round pick where you can get one of the top 4 rb, then keeping either with your first round pick would be really bad value considering their adp.

If your near the back end of round 1 you could keep both, but really its not a steal in terms of value, thats right where they are gonna go in almost all drafts
dez later round 1
aj sometime round 2, probably back half

Need suggestions. I'm drafting 10, 11 in a 10 person league. Who do you think i should be targeting? I'm looking at Hill and either a stud WR/TE. There could still be dez, DT, Odell, julio, and gronk.. CAN'T DECIDE!
