I am def hoping that I get to pick later in the draft this year. I join one high stakes league, and last year I was runner up, but still in the money...I'd like to take the cup this year, though.
With that in mind, I hope to be slotted in the 8-10 range this year. As I do, (meaningless at this point) mocks on Yahoo, it seems that the field falls the best here.
I will go with what worked well last year, and that is 2 WR with my first 2 picks. I virtually get Odell and Either Calvin Johnson or Demaryius Thomas every time, with the fall back being (yuck) Dez Bryant or Julio Jones.
You have to be attentive to RB with the next few rounds, but this strategy has worked well the past two years, so I will stay with it.
The problem picking higher is the lack of firepower up top...
Thoughts?
strategy does change a little depending on start,middle or end of order
Usually ignore qb till like rd 8 but your 8-10 scenario puts you in prime spot to take a top qb.
Rd 2 if you have a league wher passing tds are worth 6 then you can take Luck or Rodgers. If not take what you did not pick in rd 1.
Def late (after rd 10) kicker last.
Luck/Rodgers is the top/elite tier
Peyton, Brees, Ryan and maybe Wilson you could put below them.
After that, I'd feel very comfortable taking Eli.

ryan is too boom or bust for me. last year it was 30 points or 5 points. at home, he is a great play. on the road, flip a coin. I would have eli on par at worse with him. maybe even slightly higher.
Beyond that, it's hard to find strong consistency. Most of the QB's outside of the top 5 will have a solid amount of deviation from week to week. You'll get big time weeks but every now and then you'll get the empty week. with like 220 yards, 1 TD and a couple picks.
