Just finished my first draft (5th pick in 8-man PPR league). Did as suggested some places and didn't draft a defense or kicker. I figure that the strategy mostly applies to early drafts, but there's still 8 days left so thought i'd go with it.
My team ended up being:
QB: Ryan RB1: McCoy RB2: Murray WR1: Welker WR2: Nelson TE: Graham Flex: S. Jackson
BN: Eli Manning BN: Dez Bryant BN: Dwayne Bowe BN: Steve Johnson BN: Kenny Britt BN: Peyton Hillis BN: C.J. Spiller BN: Donald Brown
So at some point before wednesday (or sunday i guess if it doesn't involve giants or cowboys players??) i gotta dump two of these to get a kicker and a defense.
Who'd you go with?
And who would you add?
Good defenses (top 10 on fantasypros) left are Ravens, Steelers and Jets Good kickers left are Prater, Kaeding, Kasey/Hartley (who's the starter?)
Thanks, WHIR!

QBs: Brady RBs: Foster, Charles, D. Martin, Murray WRs: J. Nelson, Fitzgerald, Bowe, Nicks, T.Y. Hilton, M. Williams TEs: Graham, Hernandez K: S. Graham DEF: Texans
Maybe try trading Spiller + Britt to the guy with Fred Jackson? Or Peyton Hillis + Britt to the one with Charles?
Thats my best ideas..
Fred Jackson guy have (not including guy like Brady): Decker McGahee Garcon Wayne Wells
Maybe Spiller + Britt for McGahee? Or Decker
Guy with Charles: Maclin Vick (Newton as starter) Gore VJAX
Maybe Hillis + Britt for Maclin? Guess i wouldn't do that myself..

Proposed Spiller + Britt for McGahee to the one guy and Hillis + Britt for Maclin to the other.
If he doesn't go for Maclin (which i wouldn't), should i try VJAX? Not high on him after he screwed me last year with Rivers, but what are your thoughts?
