Maria is two-time reigning champion of her male-dominated league. Her league is evolving from a 10-team no-keeper auction league (2 years ago) to a 10-team 2-keeper auction league (last year) to a 12-team 3-keeper auction league (this year). She plays with friends from high school.
Maria has a $200 draft budget. Her league does QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, flex, TE, D/ST, K and 5 bench spots. Here’s how her team filled out, in order of when they were added to her team:
Peyton Manning, QB for Denver, $37 keeper
Antonio Brown, WR for Pittsburgh, $21 keeper
Michael Crabtree, WR for San Francisco, $2 keeper
Arian Foster, RB for Houston, $33
Doug Martin, RB for Tampa Bay, $48
Ben Tate, RB for Cleveland, $20
Robert Griffin III, QB for Washington, $5
Reuben Randle, WR for New York Giants, $2
Blair Walsh, K for Minnesota, $1
Kelvin Benjamin, WR for Carolina, $6
Shonn Greene, RB for Tennessee, $1
Dennis Pitta, TE for Baltimore, $3
New Orleans D/ST, $1
DeAndre Hopkins, WR for Houston, $3
The money she didn’t use in the draft ($17) she keeps and can use for auction-style waiver wire pickups.
Hopefully she holds on and wins her league again. Bring on the fantasy football!
