arrow-left — Landing the No. 10 pick in any draft usually means you don't get a chance to select an ideal running back, so C.J. Anderson is perfect in this spot.

arrow-left — Odell Beckham Jr. should finish as a top three wide receiver in 2015. Can't go wrong with this start.

arrow-left — People are sleeping on Mark Ingram this year, which is a gargantuan mistake. Ingram's going over 1,000 yards rushing with around 10 TDs -- you can write down in permanent marker right now.

arrow-left — Wait until you see Andre Johnson with Andrew Luck this season. I mean, whoa. Here's a guy who's primed to have a stellar campaign as a 34-year-old. Johnson's playing for the rival of his former organization (Houston Texans) who might still love him, but weren't still in love with him enough to make the relationship work. Look out.

arrow-left — I now have a WR3 who should exceed 1,000 yards receiving and score something like eight TDs. These first five picks have been straight fire.

arrow-left — We know one thing for certain: It doesn't matter if the Chicago Bears are winning games, their skill players accumulate impressive statistics during the Jay Cutler era. Martellus Bennett was the second-most targeted (128) tight end last season behind only Rob Gronkowski (131). Now that Kevin White could be out for the entire campaign, and with Brandon Marshall no longer in town, Bennett could easily be the first in 2015. Love this pick in the sixth round.

arrow-left — Eli Manning finished the 2014 campaign with 4,410 yards (sixth in NFL) and 30 TDs (eighth in NFL), yet somehow he's "one of the worst players in the NFL" according to whispers from misinformed fantasy enthusiasts who are vociferous in nature. The New York Giants' offense projects to have the type of season that legends are made of in 2015. I love this pick, and the best part is I landed adequate depth at the position later on.

arrow-left — I wasn't able to land C.J. Anderson's handcuff in Montee Ball, so securing the services of C.J. Spiller to go with the aforementioned Mark Ingram is a move I felt was a must. Spiller undoubtedly possesses a tad more value in PPR leagues, but even in standard settings he's going to be a perfectly adequate option in the ninth round. Considering he currently carries an ADP of 74, I got some great value here at No. 87 overall.

arrow-left — Cam Newton could easily be the starter of this team if Eli Manning shockingly struggles to begin the 2015 campaign. I have some concerns about the Carolina Panthers offensively, but if they're able to perform up-to-or-near potential, Newton will be a dynamic option at quarterback. However, the unit projects to hit some rough patches this year, so the fact that I'm not 100 percent married to this pick makes it that much more appealing.

arrow-left — The Minnesota Vikings' skill position players -- other than Adrian Peterson -- are flying entirely under the radar of the majority of fantasy aficionados. This is a huge mistake, but take advantage. Charles Johnson (ADP 98) carries some additional appeal at No. 111 overall.

arrow-left — Sure, his prowess for production in the pass attack makes Danny Woodhead more appealing in PPR leagues. But he still has an opportunity to be productive in standard settings as well, considering rookie RB Melvin Gordon is terrible in pass protection and has no experience catching passes out of the backfield. Gordon needs plenty of seasoning prior to being thought of as a three-down back at this level, so Woodhead will be receiving more looks than the masses are expecting in 2015. As a depth selection, I'm fine taking Woodhead slightly earlier than his ADP.

arrow-left — This guy Dwayne Allen scored eight TDs in 2014, and did so in only 13 games. Allen could easily hit double-digits this season. In the 12th round, Allen is what can only be described as a steal.

arrow-left — As fantasy football aficionados, we cannot take hairstyle into account when making selections. Instead, focusing on touchdown prowess is what's most important. Once he's fully healthy -- which shouldn't be an incredibly long time from now -- Kenny Stills is going to become QB Ryan Tannehill's favorite deep-threat to target. In the 13th round, there's absolutely zero risk taking Stills, but plenty of potential reward.

arrow-left — The Denver Broncos D/ST is ranked at No. 5 according to the expert charts at FantasyPros. There's plenty of potential sacks and INTs in store for those who select this unit, so don't miss out.

arrow-left — Unless you're securing the services of Stephen Gostkowski, there isn't much of a difference between kickers in the NFL. With a late final round pick, Blair Walsh is more than adequate.
