We get $200 to build a team, and get to protect 8 players from year-to-year (at the cost we paid for them). I sold assets this year, building toward the future (although I got hot and missed the playoffs by a couple points too).

Anyways, here's what I'm looking at for next year for sure:
RB - D. Martin - $28
RB - A. Morris - $5
RB - D. Sproles - $16
WR - H. Nicks - $27
WR - D. Jackson - $16
WR - D. Alexander - $5
WR - TY Hilton - $1

That leaves me with $98 spent and one more to protect. Obviously, I'm in great shape money-wise, and will need to spend on a top QB (but I think Brady, Stafford, and Brees could all be released).

Last keeper spot:
Josh Gordon at $4
or
Vick Ballard at $5
or
Joique Bell at $7

I was leaning toward Gordon, but have lately been leaning Ballard -- he's been pretty darn good. I also have more WRs.

We start: QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, Flex (WR/RB/TE), K, Def

Is Ballard the choice here?
Are my other 7 the right choices?
I've got loads of time to decide, and there's still a chance somebody will get released and I'll buy a final keeper, but figured I'd ask anyways.
