    I drafted THREE Patriots players in my first work league.

    Ben Roethlisberger
    Phillip Rivers

    Joseph Randle
    Melvin Gordon
    Devonta Freeman
    Isaiah Crowell
    Theo Riddick
    Jonas Gray
    Bilal Powell

    Demaryius Thomas
    DeAndre Hopkins
    John Brown
    Roddy White

    Rob Gronkowski

    Stephen Gostkowski

    St. Louis Rams

    Important things to note: My co-worker is good friends with Gronk so if he sucks, I have a direct line to talk shit. I'm thinking of trading Rivers to get a RB. The team who has McCoy only has Tannehill and Bradford so he could use an upgrade at QB.

    You need a rb in the worst way. Do it.

    I don't really think Rivers is that much better than either of those guys in terms of FF. IMO, this year won't consist of a lot of QB trades as everyone after Rodgers and Luck is pretty close.

    I had one rule with my teammate when we started our draft yesterday.

    No Patriots.

    I refuse to root for anyone on that fucking cheating scum hole of a franchise just to earn a few FF points.

    I agree with this for the most part. Potentially Wilson, P. Manning and/or Brees can have a little separation from the rest of the pack (I have doubts about Manning), but once your past those 5, guys like Big Ben, Ryan, Stafford, Rivers, Tannehill, Eli, Newton, Romo, Brady, etc. will have very little separation. Palmer & Bradford should be close as well, assuming they stay healthy.

    Brees is going to suck this year so he's not even in the Manning category. And I'm not even convinced Manning will have a good year.

    I think Breees willl be pretty good in terms of FF. That defense is trash. Absolute garbage. They will always be throwing the ball and his numbers could be inflated due to that

    I think Brees is going to be nice this year. No Graham to force feed, Cooks healthy, and a better run game.

    He has one target to throw to. Colston isn't even good anymore.

    Regardless of who has to throw too... he is a QB who MAKES other players better. Colston was an undrafted FA.. he became goood because of Brees

    I agree with this, which is why I like Brees despite losing Graham. It's all about volume for him this year.

    Yeah I hate Pats but those guys made me fantasy champion last year. I had Brady, Gronk and LaFell and I cruised to the victory. Hail to the Pats. Ugh I hate myself now. :D
