  1. Team Name: ‘Merica

    League Type: 12 Team, Standard Scoring, all teams keep 10 players (no rounds associated with keepers)
    We play 2 WRs and 2 RBs + 1 WR/RB Flex

    Question: I have Jamaal Charles, Lesean McCoy and Doug Martin. With my 10th keeper, do I keep a handcuff (either Karlos or Sims), a starting TE (Zach Miller) or Perriman as a WR6?

    You guys are awesome! Can’t wait to win another title with your help!!

    1. Thanks ‘Merica, I’d really need to see your whole roster to make an evaluation

      1. Here’s my team. Need 10 keepers.

        QB – Rivers, Tyrod
        RB – Jamaal, LeSean, Doug Martin, Karlos, Sims
        WR – Hopkins, Cobb, Hurns, Locket, Diggs, Perriman
        TE – Zach Miller

        Thanks!!

    2. i’d probably keep sims. people are down right now on williams and perriman so they should be fairly easy to come by, and TE is about as deep as it gets this year.

  2. Cheat sheet is out… now i’m officially excited for fantasy football!

    1. Thanks for the support GRH1988! It’s time to get excited for a HUGE season for RW Nation!

  3. Awesome job on V1 fellas. Time to start ballin’ on these donkeys in my leagues.

    1. Love the language you’re speaking EBJ. We’ll break those fish in half this season!

    Will y’all be releasing a draft cheat sheet with budget percentage breakdowns?

    1. We are releasing an addendum with simple auction instructions for using the cheat sheet. Stay tuned!

    I always assumed that standard for you guys was no PPR at all. It says 0.5 ppt though. That’s point per target I assume (same thing as ppr)? I have a 0.5 PPR 2 QB league that I’m looking forward to the cheat sheet to use since all the guys in my league think they’re amazing. But I’ve won the last 2 years anyway even without the cheat sheet since I signed up for this after we drafted that league. I won basically because of the updates throughout the season from you guys.

    1. DC, the original cheat sheet is for standard and .5 PPR both. We don’t approach drafts differently in standard vs. .5 PPR with the way the cheat sheet works. Revisions need to be made by the time we’re talking about a full point per reception, though. The 2QB Cheat sheet will be out soon, and it will be for 2QB/Superflex and .5 PPR.

        Awesome, thank you sir.

    Roethlisberger (13)
    Jordan Matthews(4)
    John Brown(10)
    DeAngelo Williams (19)

      Also, I am new to the site, is this the “standard” place to post questions of this sort? I do not see any other areas, or forum section. Thank you for your help.

      1. Hi Mort,

        Welcome to RW Nation. Yes, you have the hang of it- please ask your fantasy questions in the comments section of any front page article- and we answer promptly year round. Great to have you on board!

        -Byron

    2. Assuming the paranthesis represent the round you have to give up to keep these guys-

      Man you have some great options here- Parker , Gordon, Langford, Big Ben, Le’Veon all in play.

      Pretty sure we’re keeping Le”Veon. Then highly considering just handcuffing him with DeAngelo with 2nd keeper. in RD19. Depends on how late you think you can get DeAngelo in your draft if you throw him back. If you don’t keep DeAngelo, I think we are swinging for the fences with Josh Gordon. A Gordon / LeVeon keeper combo could prove very nasty by mid season.

      1. Post By mortenson.tyler@gmail.com

        I like the Gordon/Bell combo a lot, I just hope the first 4 weeks don’t kill me. Also, if Gordon pans out, I would be able to keep him at extreme discount for 3 years.

        I plan on using your cheat sheet during the draft, however if I do go Gordon/Bell. With the 5th pick in a snake draft, is there any particular strategy you would recommend in how I fill out the roster with picks 1-4 before I lose my 5th for Bell as my keeper.

        Thanks for your help!

        1. Post By WhiteGermanShepherd

          Nope, pre-meditated strategies are cockamamie. Stick with the sheet- and use reasonable discretion regarding positional roster limits

  8. Post By justin_honce@alumni.brown.edu

    Hey fellas, I think I remember you guys mentioning something about putting out a .5 PPR cheat sheet. I was wondering if that still holds true and if so when it will be out? Thanks

    1. Hi Justin,

      Use the Standard sheet for .5 ppr- it works perfectly. We have denoted in the downloads section- the shed which is standard / .5 ppr.

      Best Regards,

      Byron

  9. good to be back fellas. I got a keeper question, keep in mind this league is extremely short on RB’s because of the keeper format.
    Devonta Freeman 4th
    Jordan Reed 10th
    —————
    Need help on
    Benjamin 10th
    Dion Lewis 10th

    Can only keep one and hope to get some good trade value for the other. Full point ppr.

    1. there’s a chance lewis starts out on the reserve/pup list which would have him out for at least 6 weeks. i’d see what i can get for him before a decision is made.

  10. 12 team, standard scoring.

    Here’s my team. Need 10 keepers.

    QB – Rivers, Tyrod
    RB – Jamaal, LeSean, Doug Martin, Karlos, Sims
    WR – Hopkins, Cobb, Hurns, Locket, Diggs, Perriman
    TE – Zach Miller

    Thanks,
    ‘Merica

  11. Hey guys. Great sheet again this this year. Would you recommend I use the ppr sheet or the standard if I am in a .5ppr? Ps. Love you guys on Sirius. It was actually your show years ago that convinced me to keep my subscription after the initial free trial. Truly maniacal indeed!! Thanks

      Hi Shane,

      Thanks for your support. We are RW Nation’s eyes and ears on the ground year-round, making sure we all win our leagues.

      Use the standard sheet for .5 ppr- you will steamroll with it.

      1. Great! Thank you.

  12. Post By darkcloud682

    Is there a way I can get access to last year’s cheat sheet? My laptop I had it on last year is toast so I can’t look at it. Thanks.

    1. Post By WhiteGermanShepherd

      Last year’s cheat sheet has already been moved to the hall of fame, and is on lock and key.

  13. Im in an mfl best ball and following the epic rw ppr cheat sheet. First, does the cheat sheet apply to bb format, second at the risk of sounding like a massive scaredy cat; I went D johnson, Lev Bell, Kelvin Benjamin, Julian E. Next up is the infamous but super sick Josh Gordon. Love him but can i afford to wait multiple weeks on 2 guys, crossing my fingers hoping that they are straying from the bong while I am indulging?
    Keep up the great work fellas, need more of RW on sirius.

    1. THX Deagsdan the cheat sheet is sort of not for use in MFL10’s, we’ve never made a best-ball cheat sheet, but it would have some small nuanced differences that you’ve seemingly identified given the nature of best-ball optimal roster makeup. You can still use it for a general outline, though. As an aside, If you’ve taken Bell, it will often direct you to take Deangelo anyway so you might not be really missing out on those first four weeks of points as bad as you think.

  14. I have a weird league with weird scoring.

    It’s 5 yard per point rushing and receiving. (5pt bonus at 100 Yards)

    It’s 10 yards per point passing (5pt bonus at 300 yards)

    All TDS Are 6 Pts.

    Standard?

    1. Sounds like a cockamamie league. Given your scoring, yes, use the standard sheet.

      1. I actually really like the scoring to be honest. It’s not as touchdown dependent.

        If someone has a good day but gets vultured. He still has awesome day.

        I do wish they would add PPR

        Anyway, I do want to say I appreciate all that you all do. I’ll keep supporting you as long as I am willing and able.

  15. I have 10th overall pick in a 12 team ppr. Guy sitting at 4th pick wants to swap for entire draft. Yay or nay?

    Sincerely,
    RW Lover

    1. Post By WhiteGermanShepherd

      Yeah, we would probably do it- generally speaking we prefer the earlier position throughout the rest of the draft- also like the PPR stud you can get at 4- still a shot at another PPR stud in RD2

  16. New to the site (thanks to Alex and OB) and had some questions…
    1). 1.0 PPR league – standard sheet or .5 PPR sheet?
    2). Some questions on a few I had my eye on that are lower on your sheet and some that are higher
    a). Carlos Hyde – RBs in Chip Kelly offense have good numbers
    b). Torrey Smith – deep threat WR in CK offense
    c). Demaryius Thomas – you seem bullish…can you elaborate please
    d). Kevin White – uhhhh…he wasn’t even on my radar and he’s up on your list
    3). Perfect QB to pair with Tom Brady? I was thinking Cousins but seeing him creep up draft boards

    Thanks in advance!

    1. 1- The standard sheet should be used for .5 ppr. Anything higher should use the PPR
      2- Just a quick note about the cheat sheet. The placement of particular players doesn’t necessarily mean we love or hate them. in some cases it just made sense to place them where we can get the most value on them in relation to where they are generally being drafted. We also take into account the quality of their offenses and the relative risk of drafting them compared to similar players in better offenses or with less history of injury. We also scout younger players who haven’t done much in the NFL yet with our own six eyes at the Senior Bowl, Combine, camp and or their Pro days, so we have a good idea of their potential when the season starts. That being said, not bullish on Thomas and like Cousins. Carr, Dalton and Taylor can be considered too.

      1. Makes sense. Thank you Trashman.
