YoungTriz: Is there a trade offer from another manager on the table, or are you considering to reach down the board for Megatron at #2 overall? If it's the second scenario, the only plausible consideration for Calvin at #2 is in PPR leagues. Otherwise I'd strictly stick with Rice, Foster, or Rodgers in the opening two picks of the Draft.
cityofsavages: My honest opinion is that your receivers and TE are strong, but you need to upgrade both RB positions badly. Helu's value is hurt by Shanny's preference for RBBC. You might have caught a break though, with Royster and Hightower battling injuries. Pierre Thomas is in a similar RBBC situation in NO. Sproles takes catches away, Ingram takes carries particularly in the goal-line. I like Thomas more as a backup RB3 on the bench, not starting as a RB2.
You didn't post your bench but try picking up Ryan Williams, Donald Brown, C.J. Spiller, or Shane Vereen for RB depth. You'll need it over the course of a full season.
Jerseyjz: I think I get what you're trying to say about receivers in Fantasy Football, but Megatron is a top-7 lock hands down. Even higher in PPR leagues, and Welker sneaks into the late-first or early-second region for PPR leagues.
Kc246888: You have to take a QB at #7 when passing TDs are worth 6 points as opposed to the standard 4. Hopefully Brees is there. If not, strongly consider Matty Stafford or Cam. You could take a RB at #7 if Brees is off the board and wait to take your QB at #14, but you honestly risk missing Stafford or Cam in a QB-heavy league. RBs to target at #14: You mentioned CJ2K. If he's available that late, scoop him there. No brainer. I'm huge on Forte this year if Johnson's off the board. Little early for Peterson at #14 with the injury concerns and limited carries to start the season. DMC is a bit injury prone so I'd stay away despite his fantasy potential. Not trustworthy enough for my taste in a RB1. Since it is a PPR league after all, you should be extremely happy if Forte falls to your lap at #14. Strong RB1 in PPR formats. But handcuff with Michael Bush later in the draft.
RetroBaller: That's honestly a good squad. I don't think Alex Smith is even worth a roster spot. Play the FA pool for Brees' bye week. Britt has nagging injuries and a potential looming suspension for off-the-field behavior. Try upgrading your WR3. Could package Britt with Stewart for an improvement at WR3.
FlyerThanDelta: Depends on how deep your league is, how many teams? Cobb is a sleeper WR pick but only in 12+ team leagues. I'd hold onto Celek as a backup. Who's your TE starter? If you can risk it, Cobb will be a gamble but could pay dividends based on how Rodgers spreads the football in GB.
fraij: Based on auto-pick, Brady and Gronk connection is money. But Miles is fragile. Could have given you a better RB2 in the sixth-round and a better WR3 in the seventh. Honestly prefer Lance Moore and Titus Young to Mike Williams this year.
IMASOLEMAN18: I co-sign that easily. Collie unfortunately has a long history of head injuries. Rice could have a surprise year if Russell continues to ball out at QB.
SneakerHeathen: I got MJD in the third-round right after the potential trade speculation leaked. Paired him with Forte, I'm a happy man to say the least. I don't know if the CJ2K comparisons to MJD's holdout are fair or accurate, completely different running styles. MJD relies on pure power and pounding the football while keeping his strong legs churning. I wouldn't imagine it takes him that long to get into form even without a camp.
ii Flash ii: Great value with MJD in the third as I just said to SneakerHeathen. Megatron at #4 over Rodgers though? Might have reconsidered that. Must be a PPR league, right?
Nickthestick: You have a good chance to win the league, my man. Only nitpick is RB2 and WR3. McGahee isn't the greatest RB2 option in a 10-team format. Know Blackmon is technically on the bench but he's a wildcard with Gabbert at the helm.
midwest: You're going to have trouble deciding between starting Romo and Rivers throughout the season. Could have lived with just one of them as your starting QB. Receivers strong. Upgrade your RB. Will Bush replicate last season? Probably not. Will Willis? Probably not. Use Stevie as trade bait for a better RB2. Could package with Bush.
JordanShorts: Only weakness once again is RB2. People forget that in non-PPR leagues, outside having an elite QB, RBs win fantasy championships. Smith will start temporarily until Best and Leshoure's health issues are amended. Wilson is only insurance for Bradshaw at the moment. Spiller is a great handcuff to Jackson (which you don't have).
MFTIOA: Loving the team, especially your starters. Elite RB combination. I trust Young as a WR3. Could upgrade the bench a bit, but that's nitpicking.
acidicality: RG3 has the better arm and deep-ball accuracy than Cam, but for fantasy he doesn't run like him. RG3 won't sniff 14 rushing TDs. Only QBs that have a chance at double-digit rushing TDs is Cam, MV7 (if he plays all 16), and Tebow (wildcat and goal-line situations).
koreanballa: Is it PPR? I'm favoring the RG3 and Graham combination. RG3 runs better than Luck, and should hit the deep-ball combination to Garcon. Charles is explosive but Graham is ranked higher on the board. Especially in PPR.

. I'm not too worried about Blackmon though. Him and Gabbert have been really good together so far in the preseason and I'm really only gonna be using him as a bye week fill in so I think he'll do ok there.
