    We have 5 bench spots, Jeremy Hill and Andre Williams are both on the bench, I am thinking about dropping DeAngelo for one of those two guys, but I am a little hesitant because DeAngelo is a starter...
    This roster is for my 10 team ppr league that is set up the same as my 12 team ppr.

    I don't see anymore upside from Hill or Williams compared to D. Williams. I'd stand pat there. Your backs are going to need some work.

    You could luck out with Bell and Vereen as your starters. Awesome WR depth.

    When I downloaded my cheat sheet Shane Vereen and Joique Bell both ended up being 2 of the top 10 rb's, should I be looking for other guys?

    There is news Ridley might not make the cut, which propels Vereen way high. And I just checked, many believe Bell will lead the Lions in carries and get most of the goal line work. I see why they were pushed up. So you did make the right call.

    I just did another run with your scoring and both Bell and Vereen are still in the top 11. Although I'm not taking into account just how high receivers are valued in your league since you can start 3.

    Im high on Shane Vereen and Joique Bell in PPR league - and the cheat sheets reflect that - does that mean you draft them BEFORE Giovani Bernard - HELL NO - You draft these guys where they're projected to fall (ADP) - and know that you need to target them around round 3 for Vereen and round 4 for Bell - that's their current ADP and the RB you should target in those rounds -

    Projections are best guesses - I can't just take the average from the last 2 seasons - there's a lot that goes into it and making big predictions is part of the game

    Yeah, I think I got Shane in the 4th and Joique in the 6th which allowed me to get all of those recievers. Am I on the right track with how to use the cheat sheet then?

    yes I think you did great - and if my predictions are right you're superbowl bound.

    PS - Ray Rice COULD have a bounce back year -

    D WILLIAMS is probably dirt this year - I fully expect the 28 million dollar man (J Steward) to play near a full season - I'd pick him up in williams place if you can.
