Questions
I tried again
From the 6th slot I drafted this team:
QB:Andrew Luck(6)Carson Palmer(13)
RB: Murray(1) Andre Ellington(3) Gore(5) Danny Woodhead(7) Terrance West(8)
WR: Dez(2) Fitz(4) Roddy White(6) Brandin cooks(10)
TE: Kyle Rudolph(9) Eric Ebron(11)
D/ST Benagls(12) Browns(15)
K: Dan Bailey(16)
Is this any better?

    Yeah this is much better. I agree with Rob that I would probably take Calvin over Murray, but I think Murray could be the best of that next tier of RBs (along with Foster, Bell, Ball, Lynch), so I dont mind that pick.

    Depth at RB is better - I would probably look to grab Carlos Hyde as a handcuff to Gore as well though. I am also not a huge fan of Woodhead - I think he has limited upside in my opinion.

    WRs are obviously pretty great. A little light on numbers though.

    QBs I think are solid. I dont think I would use my 6th round pick on a QB, but if I did then Luck is not a bad option. Don't mind Palmer as a backup, but don't really think a backup is necessary.

    I dont think you really need a backup D or a backup TE, and could add some depth at WR. In particular, I wouldn't want to draft 2 TEs so close together - you used your 9th pick, so you should be reasonably confident that you won't need to carry a backup (I think Rudolph will have a good year), plus there are so many options at TE that you can always find a replacement for bye weeks / injuries / lack of form.

    Overall I like it though. I would be pretty happy with that draft (particularly getting 2 picks in round 6...)

    Good set of RB,s! Murray, Ellington, then Gore at flex. Roddy White is a sneaky pick, flying under radar. I'm not too high on rookies , especially in the pass game. I'd prefer Stills over Cooks, but that's just me. Also latest Ebron's news is he's got case of way too many drops & poor route running. If you absolutely need 2 TE, i'd go late flyer on the one player that becomes the move TE in Green Bay.

    Pretty good - but who was available when you picked Murray @ 6? I'll assume AP, Shady, Charles, Forte, Lacy went. If so, I would've gone Calvin at 6. I like Murray a lot... but probably not 6th overall. A little high IMO.

    Now that's a real team. I really love your WR's and your RB's are probably good enough (especially if Frank Gore continues playing at his normal level for one more year). I don't think I'd ever draft a defense that early (especially since you grabbed a comparable defense 3 rounds later), but other than that I like it much better than yesterday.

    Not bad. I don't know why you're carrying two defenses, but other than that I like the RB corps and the WR corps. I don't care for either TE. I think the Turner narrative is a little overplayed with Rudolph, and I don't like those mid-round QBs either.

    Not bad -- I probably wouldn't get a mid-round QB this year (I'd actually understand going early more), but I think this team ended up fine. I'd be a little worried about the RB spots, but I love Roddy/Fitz/Dez as your wideouts. Rudolph is solid too. Good team!
