Who to keep for next season.
PPR scoring, ideally this league is going to turn into dynasty down the road. My options for keepers are:

Julio Jones
Carlos Hyde
Lesean Mccoy
Jimmy Graham
Andre Ellington

Julio and McCoy are locks essentially, and then for me it comes down to Graham or Hyde. Thoughts?

    Sounds like you can keep 3 of these dudes, right?

    I agree that Jones is a no-brainer, being that he's 26 years old, has unique talent, and a very capable QB.

    I'd rank the next four...

    2a) Graham
    2b) McCoy

    Can't decide which guy I like better; both had imperfect 2014 campaigns and are playing for new teams, but are super talented, have produced like crazy in past years, and are relatively youthful. Arguments can be made for both.

    4) Hyde

    Hyde is young, 49ers drafted two interior lineman and two TEs which I'd like to think will help their run game, and he had some bright moments in late '14, if I recall. He's the heir-apparent to Gore, but that's no guarantee he'll put up worthwhile fantasy numbers. Really, the best argument for keeping him over Jimmy Graham would be looking back at last year's running back mess.

    5) Ellington

    Didn't stay healthy last year and didn't have great YPC numbers. Not only that, but the Cardinals took a 3rd round RB in the draft. He might be a worthwhile runningback when 2015 is all said & done but Carlos Hyde is a shinier new toy, to my eye.

    I mostly agree with the guys above....I'd keep Graham as the TE pos is not extremely deep enough and Graham may be hungry to win a championship this year. However, Hyde is iffy for me. He will get lots of touches, no doubt, but so will Bush (3rd down back), with Hunter and/or Davis getting mixed in, We'll also probably see an occasional spell by the rugby star Haynes to keep the hype rolling. glgl

    I'd keep Julio, Lesean, and Jimmy. If you have reservations about keeping a TE, take another RB, Carlos.
