dont pick your kicker till the end

Thanks Tom! The toughest part about this league is the 75 yard minimum that position players have to rush or catch for AND it's not cumulative. They have to rush for 75+ yards and/or receive for 75+ yards to score. Traditional wisdom says to go after the best RB's, but in this league with the two bonus players QB may be the way to go. I'm just not sure.

Your league has some weird scoring going on. It would be easier with the standard 10 yds 1 pt, etc..

Looking at those stats your two flex players should def be Qbs at 175yds for 6pts. Banking on a RB or WR for at least 75 yds is tough to get the 6 pts. I would also get goal line rbs since you need to fill 4 spots. A couple that I can think of are Ingram, Tolbert, McGahee, Barber, etc. Probably shouldn't have posted this as I'm in the FOH fantasy league that is going to draft on monday.

Get those Qbs early and get some value later with stafford, flacco etc as a 2nd or 3rd qb.

Best of Luck with your draft.
