FIrst off i love the MJD pick, i have him rated above AP in the ppr format. Your RBs are solid, 1-3 all are legit starters, Beanie n Lindell are great back ups. i'd highly recommend snagging Shaddy McCoy to protect Westy. As far as WRs, there a touch weak, but Royal was a solid PPR wr last year, he should be a solid ppr wr this year, especially now that Marshall is suspended (who knows how long). Either way Royal SHOULD be a solid number 2 option, and Berrian/Evans should be solid bye week fillers. Im not Rivers's biggest fan but i cant say i'd be sad to see him on my roster. All in all u look like u did well adjusting to PPR, getting Westy at 19 is a steal no matter how old he is. After playing ppr for a few years you'll find out that the difference between WRs and RBs is pretty slim. Giving u more options and routes to draft

mines a bit difficult to rate b/c of the odd scoring system. but any thoughts would be much appreciated

I'd agree with you on all your points Demon. QB's came off the board early which didn't scare me as I know I could still grab some value late.. When Westbrook fell to me (especially after doing some PPR homework), I couldn't NOT grab him there at 19.. Followed that up with Smith at 22..

I knew I'd need to grab WR my following picks but again I'm seeing QB's coming off the board quickly (due to the scoring system of 6 pts per TD and bonus) and I don't want to say I panicked, but after you get away from Rivers/Romo it drops way down in my book to your flyers.. Schaub/Edwards/Cutler etc.. With QB's putting up chunks of points I didn't want to risk going a ton of picks and gambling... And then I see Pierre Thomas on the board..

Bit the bullet on WR's but hopefully Eddie Royal can catch close to his 90 total last year with Orton dumping 5 yd passes off to him lol..

Thanks again and I'll take a look at your draft.

PPR and you managed to get MJD, Westbrook and Pierre Thomas bodes well for you. WR2 could use an upgrade an Royal no longer has Cutler throwing to him but Royal gets a lot of seperation and Orton is a decent enough QB to find him a couple of times a game. Really love you RB corp.

I like your squad and I think Royal is a legit 2 in PPR. I am actually worried about P. Thomas though. I had him ranked in my top 17 RBs, but he just got hurt and they seem to like M. Bell. Plus, Bush is still there (till he gets hurt). Bush will probably get the majority of catches which hurts Pierre's reception value and Tinker Bell could steal some carries as sad as that is. I fear a 3 headed monster although I think Pierre should still get the most carries and the goal line carries when healthy.

I really like this team. MJD and Westy is a great PPR 1-2 punch. I don't love Thomas but he's a really good #3 back and there's some good depth even past that. I think your receivers are solid but unspectacular. You should do just fine with them. TEs are in good shape. I'm not crazy about the Pats' defense but it's not much of a quibble. Overall I really like the team (although I must say that all my leagues are 12 teams, so it's tough for me to gauge how much losing 2 teams messes with depth). Thanks for you help on mine.

Have to say the Brandon Marshall crap is definitely making my late round Eddie Royal pick that much more satisfying especially in PPR..

Beanie Wells looked real nice the other night as well.. Think he went 2 TD's.

Really liking the love Olson is getting as well!

If Pierre Thomas ends up busting or getting TD vultured from Bell I'm going to need solid production at FLEX.. Maybe even LenDale White could become that guy after laying off the Patron..
