I would only take Brees and maybe Graham. We spread the ball around too much to waist a roster spot on anyone else on our team. Also picking our Defense would not be a bad idea either.

Agreed. The only Saint I have on offense is Graham. Well, I do have Pierre as a RB4, but right now Graham is the only starter. Brees went one pick before I took Rivers. I think Rivers will have a bigger season because Brees will lose some numbers to our running game. This is a good thing for us.

I also have Vilma at LB and Wsill Smith at DE. It is an IDP league.

The only two sure bets are Drew and Graham.

Colston would be a good third WR. Moore and Meachem could be good fourth WRs.

Mostly I have taken Brees and Graham.. But I also took Ingram in a few drafts. Something is telling me he is gonna have 800-1100 yards rushing. I know I put 1100 yards up there, but I just feel if he gets off to a good start it could happen.. Some are already projecting him rookie of the year... I also feel he will have 8-12 TD's.. Now I have drafted a lot of other backs from other teams as well... projected to do not that good.. But well I am a Homer, so I feel he deserves a spot as a reserve.. I can always put him in the lineup on my other backs by week.. Or when we play a weak rushing defense.. But oh well it's worth a try... I have also taken Thomas in a few drafts as well...

But for the most part Brees and Graham

GEAUX SAINTS!!!

I have Graham as my TE (1), and Thomas as my RB (4/bench)
