Yea 1st time doing IDP. I didn't know the IDP draft strategy and free agency.

If so, just look up stats for players from last year to give you an idea who are good picks. There are some good ones that you can keep on your squad for the entire season or you can do like me and change them weekly. When you're doing the draft, make sure all your offensive starters are picked before you draft an IDP. You don't necessarily have to go that route but that's what I do most times.
Right now we're at 12/14... if someone else joins and you don't want to give it a try that's understandable. If you're willing to stick it out and give it a go that's even better. Trust me though, everyone who's played with IDP have loved it.
Don't overthink the IDP spots bro in all honesty. It's probably the easiest position to fill because there are literally so many of them.EA7649 wrote: Yea 1st time doing IDP. I didn't know the IDP draft strategy and free agency. Also the projecting who to start and IDP depth to make

Led by a Talented Group of Receivers, APEX PREDATOR Has a Team to Watch
Draft Summary
A masterful draft-day performance by the GM of APEX PREDATOR turned the 10th overall pick into a projected finish of second. They're expected to finish 11-2-0 (2,609 points) in THN Football League. They went after the diva position early, using three of their first five selections on WRs Tyreek Hill (third round), Tyler Lockett (fourth round), and DeSean Jackson (fifth round). They ultimately landed one of the best RB pairs in the league, as they added Devonta Freeman and Leonard Fournette to the team.

Despite Reaching for a Few Players, Laughing Hyenas Will Own This League
Draft Summary
Drafting 11th, Laughing Hyenas took advantage of their weaker opponents and drafted a team capable of making some noise come playoff time. They are expected to finish first in THN Football with a record of 12-1-0 (2,591 points). They made a bold roster decision by choosing to wait until the sixth round to grab their first RB. They scooped up Bilal Powell with the 74th overall pick. They also ultimately ended up with the best TE combo in the league, as they have Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham on their team.

Led by a Terrific Group of RBs, Pot Roasted is a Team to Watch
Draft Summary
Putting together a decent team, Pot Roasted didn't want to show up the THN Football League and build some unbeatable juggernaut. They instead focused on building a team with a solid chance to make the playoffs. Humbly, they are expected to finish in fourth-place in THN Football League at 9-4-0 (2,492 points). They put together a three-headed monster in the backfield with their first three picks, selecting Melvin Gordon 12th overall, followed by Ezekiel Elliott in the second round, and Kareem Hunt in the third. A lot will be expected of this group, as they are the most prolific group of RBs in the league.

Loaded With Falcons, NeSsDank is a Force To Be Reckoned With
Draft Summary
NeSsDank must have gotten some help from Ozzie Newsome, as they built a talented roster despite a late pick. Projections predict they'll finish third in THN Football League with a record of 11-2-0 (2,495 points). With this kind of investment in the WR position by NeSsDank, they can only hope this trio resembles "The Greatest Show on Turf." They used their first three picks to draft Jordy Nelson in the first round (14th overall), Michael Thomas in the second (15th), and Demaryius Thomas in the third (42nd). This group will have to produce in order for NeSsDank to have a good season, as they are one of the best groups of WRs in the league.

Led by a Quality Group of RBs, Hail2theSkins is a Team to Watch
Draft Summary
Hail2theSkins put together an underrated roster that might not dominate week in and week out, but will be firmly entrenched in a playoff spot by season's end. They're projected to finish the season with a 6-7-0 record (2,337 points) in THN Football League, which will be good enough for seventh. They stocked up on pass-catching weapons early on, using three of their first five selections to pick up WRs Amari Cooper (third round), Kelvin Benjamin (fourth round), and DeVante Parker (fifth round). They ultimately built the best group of RBs in the league, as they added David Johnson, Christian McCaffrey, and Theo Riddick.

Predicted to Finish Sixth, Ron Bugundy-n-Gold Expects to Factor Heavily Into Playoff Picture
Draft Summary
Ron Bugundy-n-Gold drafted like a bat out of hell in this one. Meat Loaf once told the NY Times that he's played in as many as 60 fantasy leagues in a year, and he would surely approve of this drafting display. Ron Bugundy-n-Gold assembled a squad built to reach the playoffs and is projected to finish sixth in THN Football League with a record of 8-5-0 (2,369 points). They went with a balanced approach early, selecting QB Matt Ryan (50th overall), RB Jay Ajayi (7th), WR Brandin Cooks (22nd), and TE Travis Kelce (35th) within the first five rounds. They've ultimately got the lowest-scoring set of WRs in the league, as they added Cooks, Sammy Watkins, Pierre Garcon, and Zay Jones.

Despite a Powerful Set of RBs, Deadskins Needs Upgrades
Draft Summary
Look, Deadskins, not everyone achieves the "above" in "above average," it has to be earned. Just be happy as an average GM, and maybe with a little hard work and a better draft next season, your team will reach that milestone. Deadskins didn't achieve their playoff aspirations with this draft, but they'll have to do some extra work to get there. For now, they're projected to finish in eighth-place in THN Football League at 6-7-0 (2,333 points). RB depth won't be the issue this season as Deadskins loaded up, drafting LeSean McCoy (9th overall), Jordan Howard (20th), and Lamar Miller (37th) with their first three selections. If these guys can do what they're expected to do, Deadskins will benefit. They are one of the most prolific groups of RBs in the league.

Led by a Quality Group of RBs, L P J is a Team to Watch
Draft Summary
L P J put together an underrated roster that might not dominate week in and week out, but will be firmly entrenched in a playoff spot by season's end. They're projected to finish the season with a 9-4-0 record (2,390 points) in THN Football League, which will be good enough for fifth. With their first five picks, L P J focused on a balanced offensive attack, selecting QB Drew Brees (27th overall), RBs Le'Veon Bell (2nd) and Mark Ingram (58th), and WRs Terrelle Pryor Sr. (30th) and Michael Crabtree (55th). They also ended up landing the top set of RBs in the league, as they have Bell, Duke Johnson Jr., Ingram, and Chris Thompson for their rotation.

With Multiple Redskins, Bernie's Braves Needs Work to Reach Playoffs
Draft Summary
With the right set of circumstances, Bernie's Braves could potentially make the playoffs. A tough draft spot led to a fairly tough draft. Picking eighth overall, they're projected to land in ninth place in THN Football League with a record of 5-8-0 (2,223 points). They went with a balanced approach early, selecting QB Kirk Cousins (8th overall), RB Samaje Perine (49th), WR Jamison Crowder (36th), and TE Jordan Reed (21st) within the first five rounds. They ultimately have the weakest QB combo in the league, as they added Cousins and Jared Goff to their squad.

Despite Some Early Bargains, ea7649 Would Have Done Better if They Drafted Good Players
Draft Summary
Despite selecting in the top half of the first round (fifth overall), ea7649 might as well have been blindly heaving darts at the draft board to decide their picks. Opponents are going to enjoy beating this team, which is projected to finish 11th in THN Football League with a record of 3-10-0 (2,108 points). They went with the SMU "Pony Express" draft strategy, loading up on three tailbacks in the first five rounds, selecting Carlos Hyde (third round), Joe Mixon (fourth round), and Ameer Abdullah (fifth round). When the dust settled, they'd ultimately landed one of the best QB tandems in the league, as they added Aaron Rodgers and Andy Dalton.

Despite an Exciting Group of WRs, the LTI Would Have Done Better if They Drafted Good Players
Draft Summary
Despite selecting in the top half of the first round (fourth overall), the LTI might as well have been blindly heaving darts at the draft board to decide their picks. Opponents are going to enjoy beating this team, which is projected to finish 14th in THN Football League with a record of 1-12-0 (1,996 points). With four RBs on the roster, the LTI might have opted for quantity over quality at that spot; their RBs are projected to average 144 points this season, fewer than the league average of 155. They ultimately landed the highest-scoring group of WRs in the league, as they have Odell Beckham Jr., Dez Bryant, and Stefon Diggs on the roster.

Despite Some Early Steals, HH.Thn.rookie Should Call Chip Kelly for Trade Advice
Draft Summary
Jerry Rice once stated, "I feel like I'm the best, but you're not going to get me to say that." Well, guess what, HH.Thn.rookie, he isn't going to claim that about your team either. Because that would be a lie. HH.Thn.rookie is expected to finish 12th in THN Football League with a record of 3-10-0 (1,994 points). They clearly wanted to assemble a wide receiver corps early, using three of their first five selections on A.J. Green (first round), DeAndre Hopkins (third round), and Keenan Allen (fourth round). They also ended up landing one of the weakest groups of RBs in the league, as they have DeMarco Murray, Mike Gillislee, Jamaal Williams, and Rex Burkhead on their team.

Despite an Exciting Set of WRs, Diesel and Gas 4488 Can Make the Playoffs if They Just Replace Most of the Team
Draft Summary
Entering the draft with the sixth overall pick, the expectations were high for Diesel and Gas 4488. Then they drafted. Those expectations quickly vanished with a projected 13th-place finish in THN Football League at 2-11-0 (1,964 points). They must be in love with the wide receiver position, using their first three picks on Mike Evans (6th overall), Doug Baldwin (23rd), and T.Y. Hilton (34th). These guys could be the key to the season for Diesel and Gas 4488, as they are one of the most prolific groups of WRs in the league.

In Spite of Some Early-Round Value Picks, DC-RU Needs Work
Draft Summary
Mediocrity isn't for everyone DC-RU, so feel proud. Ok, maybe it is. But hey, you showed up, and that's the important thing. After this average draft performance, DC-RU is projected to go 5-8-0 (2,128 points) and finish 10th in THN Football League. With their first five picks, DC-RU aimed for balance, selecting QB Jameis Winston (54th overall), RBs Dalvin Cook (26th) and Isaiah Crowell (31st), and WRs Antonio Brown (3rd) and Allen Robinson (59th). They put together one of the weakest groups of RBs in the league, as they have Crowell, Cook, and Terrance West to lead the way.
