FANTASY FOOTBALL – Make or Break Players


FantasyFootballNFL

When the fantasy football season comes to an end several months from now and you finally have chance to go back and evaluate your fantasy draft, much of your success will come down to two things:

1. The players you drafted in the high rounds that underperformed
2. The players you drafted in the low rounds that Moverperformed

Think back to last season. Were you the one who drafted Adrian Peterson in Round 1 or Keenan Allen in Round 2? Either of those decisions would have significantly hurt your chances of contending for your fantasy playoffs.

But what about if you took a flyer on C.J. Anderson with one of your final picks? Or were savvy enough to draft Jeremy Hill in the middle rounds? Now we’re telling a completely different story, aren’t we? In fact, you might be shining your championship trophy as we speak.

Here’s a look around the league at one from each team with the potential to make or break your season in 2015. Next to each player, his average draft position is listed and any references to draft rounds is based on a 10-team league.

AFC East

New England Patriots: Rob Gronkowski (ADP: 15.1)
Gronk led all tight ends in targets (131), yards (1,124) and touchdowns (12) last season, but are you prepared to use an early-to-middle second-round pick on someone who’ll be without his starting quarterback — future Hall of Famer, Tom Brady, no less — for the first four weeks of the season?

Buffalo Bills: Sammy Watkins (ADP: 50.3)
There’s no questioning Watkins’ talent. The No. 4 overall pick from 2014 put up good numbers as a rookie (65 receptions, 6 touchdowns) despite poor quarterback play, but the Bills are still looking at EJ Manuel or Matt Cassel to guide them in 2015. You better hope that they connect with Watkins often to warrant a fifth-round pick.
