BN3
DEF Texans Defense (BYE: 10)

BN4
RB Devonta Freeman (BYE: 9)

BN5
RB Darren McFadden (BYE: 5)

BN6
TE Charles Clay (BYE: 5)

Why I like it:

This is a really strong team, particularly in a non-PPR league. Brees, Charles, Gronkowski and Garcon give a strong core to carry this team and other starters like Frank Gore, Shane Vereen and Golden Tate are three other strong options as well. The back-ups aren’t as strong, but there is at least one good player per position that can be relied upon as a solid back-up. While some people could question the Brees pick, at the end of the day this team has 2 of the top 3 fantasy scorers from last year.

Mock 2: Zack, Non-Dynasty and PPR, 14 Team League

WR1
Demaryius Thomas (BYE: 4)

BN2
WR Rueben Randle (BYE: 8)

BN3
RB Carlos Hyde (BYE: 8)

BN4
WR Justin Hunter (BYE: 9)

BN5
WR Jerricho Cotchery (BYE: 12)

BN6
TE Levine Toilolo (BYE: 9)

 

Why I like it:

This is a a 14 team, PPR league and this team managed to pull Demaryius Thomas, Vincent Jackson and Julio Jones which is incredible. It obviously cost them weaker running backs, but landing 3 top wide receivers in a league like this could do a lot of damage. Even though they waited for other potions they got some decent players in Rivers, Tate, Gore and Bennett. Rivers especially could be a guy who really excels in his 2nd year in this offense. Rivers has previously been a top 5 fantasy QB and there is little reason he can’t be there again.The depth is a little weaker,but it is expected and definitely has some nice sleepers.

Mock 3: Dan – Non-Dynasty and PPR, 10 Team Mock Draft

https://fanspeak.com/fantasyotc/share.php?d=614f456d822d6bb3a7e0d8faeb11f91d

YOUR PICKS
QB1
Aaron Rodgers (BYE: 9)

RB1
Reggie Bush (BYE: 9)

RB2
Ben Tate (BYE: 4)

WR1
Dez Bryant (BYE: 11)

WR2
Percy Harvin (BYE: 4)

FLEX1
RB Frank Gore (BYE: 8)

TE1
Kyle Rudolph (BYE: 10)

DEF1
Seahawks Defense (BYE: 4)

K1
Steven Hauschka (BYE: 4)

BN1
WR DeSean Jackson (BYE: 10)

BN2
WR Mike Evans (BYE: 7)

BN3
QB Tom Brady (BYE: 10)

BN4
RB Darren Sproles (BYE: 7)

BN5
DEF 49ers Defense (BYE: 8)

BN6
WR Kelvin Benjamin (BYE: 12)

Why I like it:

Aaron Rodgers and Dez Bryant are two elite fantasy players, while other players like Reggie Bush, Ben Tate, DeSean Jackson, Frank Gore and Percy Harvin are all really good players as well. The fact that one of them will always be on on the bench gives both great trade value and a lot of help during bye weeks. The Bench has a lot of upside and potential as well with a young guy like Mike Evans.
