10 Team Expanded Roster Keeper League, WHIR!!

[kenjinenjin]

Before I begin to try to explain my league's weird rules, let me just start by saying that the scoring is actually pretty intuitive, so the only weirdness that you wanna consider when looking at my team are the keeper rules, and the fact that we start 2QBs

- Each team has 3 keepers
- To keep a player, one must use the draft pick that is two rounds higher than the round that the player was drafted/kept for in the previous season (eg.- Chris Johnson, who was a 10th round pick last year, would be kept as an 8th round pick this year)
- FA's count as 14th rounders when being kept (eg.- for example, Miles Austin, a FA acquisition last year, would cost a 14th round pick to keep.)

This is a H2H league, quarter-PPR, so receptions are a plus, but not really a gamechanger.
We start 2 QBs and two extra flex spots, one RB/WR and one WR/TE.


Kind of complicated rules, but we can still judge strengths and weaknesses of my roster and get a couple of opinions on some of my players. Just keep in mind that all of the draft round values (#) are inflated because of our keeper setup, since many good players were being kept. I will gladly hit anyone back with a reply, just leave a link!

With all the rules, I'm not so sure I can give the best advice but I will do what I can.


Very solid ass team man, love your RB's.

Only players I don't like Matt Ryan, just don't see a ton of upside there but hes still solid anyways.

Like the T.O. pick a lot!

I think Greg Olsen might not do too well in Chicago this year with Martz's new system but who knows.

Great overall team, no holes.

Thanks for the feedback man. The way i figured, Big Ben is my actual #2 QB, and Ryan's just a temp replacement who will in turn be a good backup. But in hindsight, I do think that I would have been better off taking a WR at that spot. I think WR could be a concern for me, any opinions about that?

Your team looks pretty solid. and yes i do believe with Rodgers as your QB1 you could have waited a couple of rounds for a different QB and picked up a little better of a WR. Just my opinion though! Otherwise i like your RBs and your TO pick was very well played.

good job confused on the rules but team looks like a contender

Decent squad but I think you need to look into depth at WR. You have okay WRs. White will be a stud, TO should be decent but past them eh. There are probably decent WRs available: Williams TB, Thomas JAX, J. Jones HOU, C. Davis SD: who migth help your cause and be better people to have than Olsen, who according to Martz track record won't do much.

Thanks for the reply, I agree that I need to look into upgrading my WRs. Out of the WRs you mentioned, Jones is gone but the others are available, as well as a bunch of other guys (Manningham, Laurent Robinson, Lou Murphy, Devin Thomas, etc.) Nobody believes in Olsen? I drafted him thinking that his connection with Cutler would mean increased production in a better offense, but I didn't think about the Martz track record.

Confused about the rules.
Can't really help you, sorry but try tu upgrade your RB's.
