  2. I generally agree with this list. I would note that McCluster is being moved to WR according to the team. I personally rank Tate ahead of Spiller in non-PPR leagues. Nice list otherwise!

  3. Thank you for the feedback Colin. I agree on McCluster – he will be used at both positions and I will likely move him to WR at my next update. Interesting about Tate over Spiller; he is in a good position to succeed in Houston.
