Roster Overview Part I

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.

Leland (No Soup For You)

QB- Blake Bortles

WR: Calvin Johnson, Martavis Bryant, Malcolm Floyd, Jordan Matthews, Markus Wheaton, Kelvin Benjamin

RB: Todd Gurley, David Johnson, Steven Jackson, Denard Robinson, Duke Johnson, Cameron Artis-Payne

TE: Will Tye, Martellus Bennett, Zach Miller

Potential Keepers: Todd Gurley, David Johnson, Kelvin Benjamin

Overview: The defending champion is looking like a heavy repeat to go back to back this year with a strong foundation of running backs to build on. There's no doubt that Leland keeps Todd Gurley and David Johnson due to their draft position and both of them are top 5 prospects. You add whoever Leland gets in rounds 1 and 2 (remember, he picks back to back) and it's going to be a Golden State Warriors situation going on. I put Kelvin Benjamin on there because if for some reason Gurley or Johnson get injured, Benjamin is not a shabby backup plan in the 11th round.

Mark (Shock The Monkey)

QB: Derek Carr, Jay Cutler

WR: Jarvis Landry, Emmanuel Sanders, Ted Ginn Jr, Jermaine Kearse, Marvin Jones, Alshon Jeffrey

RB: Darren McFadden, Ronnie Hillman, Jerick McKennon, James White

TE: Gary Barnidge, Heath Miller

Potential Keepers: Derek Carr, Jarvis Landry, Emmanuel Sanders, Marvin Jones, Alshon Jeffrey, Darren McFadden, Gary Barnidge

Overview: There's no  clear cut superstar keep on this team. Remember, it's about draft position so while someone might say "why is Marvin Jones or Darren McFadden a potential keeper?" it's because of how late they were drafted. Marvin Jones is going to a situation where he becomes the #1 receiver in pass happy Detroit..which could be worth a keep in Round 10. Alshon Jeffrey always is a threat but he has a round 2 price tag. Jarvis Landry could be another keep as he's pretty money in a PPR and comes with a Round 5 price tag. Barnidge proved to be a good value at Tight End and he's keepable in Round 14 and if you believe Derek Carr can continue to grow and improve upon a great season last year, he'd be a last round keep as he went undrafted as well. Mark's got plenty of choices, it'll be interesting to see where he goes.

Eugene (Rocket Man)

QB: Aaron Rodgers, Alex Smith

WR:  Michael Crabtree, John Brown, Terrence Williams, Doug Baldwin, Julio Jones, Tavon Austin, James Jones

RB: Darren Sproles, Jeremy Hill, Brandon Bolden, Mark Ingram, Dion Lewis

TE: Jason Witten, Eric Ebron

Potential Keepers: Aaron Rodgers, Julio Jones, Mark Ingram, Doug Baldwin

Overview: Let's put this to rest, Eugene's keeping the two guys that led his team to an improbable third place finish. There's no way he's letting Julio and Aaron Rodgers reenter the draft, especially picking 10th. If something happens though, he's got interesting backup plans. Mark Ingram isn't a bad keep in Round 4 and they way Doug Baldwin finished last season, he's interesting guy to keep in Round 12. Leland, Eugene, Drew, and Mayra have in my opinion, the biggest no brainer keepers in the league.
