Roster Overview Part III

Time to look at last year's rosters for each team and make observations on what each team might be looking to do as far as their keeper situation. I'll be doing this in 4 installments of 3 teams apiece. Here's Part III.

Dad (The Bad Robofies)

QB- Tom Brady, Russell Wilson

WR- Jordan Matthews, Mohamed Sanu, Brandon Marshall, Kendall Wright, Terrance Williams

RB- Gio Bernard, Alfred Morris, Joique Bell, Terrance West, DeAngelo Williams

TE- Jimmy Graham, Charles Clay

Potential Keepers: Jimmy Graham

Overview: Unfortunately not only did Dad not make the playoffs, he surrendered his 3rd round pick to me in the trade for Brandon Marshall, which did not work out at all. Gio Bernard was a bust, and Tom Brady and Russell Wilson were so good that Dad had to try to alternate between them, which was a difficult task to say the least. Dad picks at #3 so although Jimmy Graham might seem like a keepable prospect (TE is paper thin) no way he keeps him at #3 overall. Dad's going to be looking to start over from scratch and lucky for him having a high pick and the amount of talent that will be available, should give Dad a nice foundation to rebuild on.

Kenny (Woe Is Me)

QB- Tony Romo

WR- Doug Baldwin, Charles Johnson, Michael Floyd, Reggie Wayne, John Brown

RB- Daniel Herron, Jonathan Stewart, Pierre Thomas, Chris Johnson

TE- Coby Fleener

Potential Keepers: N/A

Overview: Kenny started the year with Demaryius Thomas and Calvin Johnson and ended it with...two extra 3rd rounders for this year's draft. Now it's time for Kenny to cash in those trade chips as there is no doubt those picks give Kenny a HUGE advantage for this season. He has no keepable players so he's starting from scratch plus he gets his pick of what's unkept as he drafts #1 overall. If he plays his cards right, this has the makings of what could be a championship caliber roster.

Ryan (Hoosier Daddy)

QB- Josh McCown

WR- Roddy White, Pierre Garcon, Wes Welker, Marquess Wilson, Andrew Hawkins, Dwayne Bowe

RB- Jeremy Hill, Chris Ivory, Charles Sims, Lorenzo Taliaferro, Jonas Gray

TE- Jason Witten, Brent Celek

Keepable Players-Jeremy Hill

Overview: Ryan was the 2nd most active in trading off talent for picks as he acquired an extra 3 and 4 for Alshon Jeffrey and Eddie Lacy respectively. He still actually has a keepable player in Jeremy Hill, who many are high on this year. Is he worth taking 4th overall? I'm not sure, it depends how much Ryan likes Hill, and also the mystery of who will be actually available there at #4, because it's almost a given Hill won't be there by the time Ryan picks again in the 2nd round.  Interesting situation to keep an eye on, and Ryan should field a championship caliber team with those extra picks.
