14 Person League Advice

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Just wanting to hear the thoughts of the fantasy gurus on the Huddle. 

Unfortunately I won't know my draft position until a few days before the draft. I have been using Yahoo's mock draft feature but each time have been unhappy with the final result. I have been targeting RBs and WRs early and saving QB for the mid rounds. Usually when I play fantasy QB is one of the last starting positions I select, but I worry that if I wait too long in a 14 person league I'll be left with a guy putting up 10 points a week. I've played with the group of guys before and there is usually a run on QBs in the first few rounds. 

Players I am targeting in various rounds:

Dez/Julio, CJ Anderson/McCoy, Davante Adams, Brandin Cooks, Latavius Murray, Doug Martin, Romo, Greg Olsen/Travis Kelce

Just any advice you may have for a league this big. Obviously a lot depends on the way players fall but your thoughts on how to prioritize for a league this big or any strategy you may have.

my advice is .... BACK OUT NOW JOIN DEFAULT  10 MAN!!!!!!!!!!! lol jk  I hate leagues above  10-12 teams.  I dont really know if there is a strat that works better here..........I do know that the thinest positions go full panic mode (QB) in a 14 +man and before you know it Colt McCoy is your QB.( yes that actually happened to me  one year in a 16 man league........the first and last such league I played in.)

Yeah over 12 sucks because if get one of those last spots it's pretty rough. For some reason my league I've been in for years gives more points for QB TDs than a usual standard league so we have an early run of QBs, but this year yeah I think there is only two elite QBs.

Did my big money league yesterday and its 14 owners . 

 

Luck ended up going number one overall and i had planned on taking him at 6 but ended up with Leveon Bell so ill take that but it altered my draft strategy. Rodgers went 8th then there were no 2nd round QB's , come around to the 3rd round and 5 went off the board order Wilson , Manning , Big Ben , Brees and Stafford.

 

Hope that helps you out a bit , I took the homer pick of Cam in the 7th round and Phillip Rivers in the 9th round to give you an idea of how my QB situation rounded out.
