Yahoo 12 team standard, 4th pick:

Position Name Pick
QB Bradford 8-93
RB1 Lacy 1-4
RB2 L. Miller 3-28
WR1 ODB Jr. 2-21
WR2 Davante Adams 4-45
TE Eifert 10-117
Flex Jonas Gray 15-172
K Hauschka 12-141
DEF Miami 13-148
Bench RB Foster 5-52
Bench RB Gurley 6-69
Bench RB Joique Bell 9-100
Bench RB Ronnie Hillman 14-165
Bench WR John Brown 7-76
Bench WR M. Wheaton 11-124

Overall I'm pretty satisfied. I bought tickets on a number of hype trains but I'm not relying on most of them to start. So I can wait and see how they pan out, especially once Foster comes back. If just 1 or 2 of the 5-6 upside picks I nabbed go off I'll be happy. If ODB or Adams crash and burn I'm going to be pretty thin at WR though.

I missed out on a number of guys I really wanted by just a few picks which sucks, but I think I adapted well and it's always good to be overstocked on RBs:

AJ Green was taken 1 slot before ODB, Forsett 1 slot before Miller, Jimmy Graham and Brady 4 and 2 spots before Adams, Brees and Olson 4 and 2 spots before Foster, then JStew/Ivory/Kelce/Cooper/Maclin/Landry all went before my 6th pick. In retrospect I should have probably picked one of them at 52 overall, but I really didn't want to take the chance on Foster lasting until 69 and I thought that at least one would drop (I didn't even mention Big Ben, Bennett, B. Marshall, and Watkins who all went in that 53->68 range). No such luck.

Other than that I got guys that I think have nice upside and didn't really miss out on anyone crucial. I'm happy with my K and Def (gonna be streaming once Miami gets past that super easy start) and getting Hillman/Gray is pretty much a wash vs. the options that I passed up by drafting them in the 12/13 instead of 14/15: Blue, Sankey, Sims, Shoelace, Stills, Harvin, Fred Jackson, and David Johnson. It was like a who's who of derailed 2014 RB hype trains. Especially given the extra point changes I really like that I got to choose my kicker (I had Hauschka, Tucker, and Vinatieri left of the "top tier" and didn't want to settle for someone outside those 3).
