Pick No. 7 | Pick No. 8 | Pick No. 9 | Pick No. 10 | Pick No. 11 | Pick No. 12

It's time to switch things up at No. 5 overall. So far, through the first four picks of this series in each format, it has been all running backs in this two-man draft with my colleague Dave Richard.

That changes here.

With this pick we're going with the No. 1 receiver on the majority of draft boards in Calvin Johnson. You can argue Jimmy Graham should be drafted here or another running back, but Johnson is the pick based on his sustained level of production. He has been a Top 3 Fantasy receiver each of the past three seasons, including No. 1 twice in standard formats.

The usual concern about drafting Johnson in Round 1 is going without a potential stud running back with your first pick. I went to the extreme here in both leagues by going receiver-receiver with my first two picks. In the standard league, I drafted Julio Jones in Round 2, and I selected Antonio Brown in the PPR format.

I wasn't concerned at all about running back because Andre Ellington and Shane Vereen were there in Rounds 3 and 4, respectively, in the standard league. And Alfred Morris was there in Round 3 in the PPR draft. He isn't a great No. 1 running back in this format, but he's definitely serviceable with a third-round pick after starting with Johnson and Brown.

We typically advise you to stockpile as many running backs as possible, especially early, because the position dries up quickly. But that doesn't mean it has to be with your first two picks. In the standard league, I went with a running back in Rounds 3, 4, 7 (Pierre Thomas), 9 (Stepfan Taylor), 11 (Darren McFadden) and 12 (James White). I only need to start two since Wes Welker is my expected flex option, so I'm confident in this group.

In the PPR league, I didn't draft my second running back until Round 5 with Trent Richardson. But then I went with Ben Tate in Round 6, Devonta Freeman in Round 8, Khiry Robinson in Round 9 and Ahmad Bradshaw in Round 12. Like the standard league, I only need two of these guys since Cordarrelle Patterson is my expected flex, so this team turned out very well.

You can judge for yourself as we analyze each pick. I think you'll find in both formats this is a good strategy to follow on Draft Day.

Editor's note: The percentages listed are what position you should target based on that round for each pick.

Round 1

Round 1 - Standard QB 0% RB 40% WR 40% TE 20%
Round 1 - PPR QB 0% RB 30% WR 50% TE 20%

There's some talk that Johnson's targets will decrease this season with the additions of Golden Tate and Eric Ebron. We doubt that happens enough to impact his Fantasy value in a negative way, and Johnson should again finish with 80-plus catches and 1,450-plus yards, which he's done each of the past three seasons. He's also scored at least 12 touchdowns in three of the past four years. Graham would also have been a good choice here, especially in PPR leagues, or Eddie Lacy in the standard format. But I'll take Johnson and know my team is in good shape with an excellent first-round pick.

Round 2

Round 2 - Standard QB 5% RB 50% WR 40% TE 5%
Round 2 - PPR QB 0% RB 50% WR 40% TE 10%

My initial thought after taking Johnson in the standard league was to take a running back in Round 2. But once Zac Stacy and Doug Martin went off the board right in front of me, I didn't panic and drafted Jones instead. Now, I didn't have to worry about receiver for a while barring someone falling in my lap, and I have a distinct advantage over most owners at the position with two Top 5 guys coming into the year. In the PPR league, I wanted Brown over Stacy and Martin, who were available, because those two receivers with my first two picks should have the chance for 200 receptions between them and dominant production across the board.

Players you can get here (standard): Julio Jones, Brandon Marshall, A.J. Green, Jordy Nelson, Antonio Brown

Round 3

Round 3 - Standard QB 10% RB 60% WR 20% TE 10%
Round 3 - PPR QB 5% RB 70% WR 20% TE 5%

Running back is clearly a priority in both formats after starting with two receivers through the first two rounds. Ellington is better suited as a No. 2 running back, but he has Top 12 potential if he plays to the offseason expectations. Ellington was a Top 24 running back last year in a shared role with Rashard Mendenhall, but Ellington's role will increase in what should be an explosive offense. In the PPR league, we'll find out if coach Jay Gruden was truthful when he told me this offseason he wants Morris in the 20-25 catch range. He has 20 career receptions, so it's a stretch, but if he's more involved in the passing game then getting him in Round 3 might be a steal. Either way, both running backs are solid options at this point in the draft after how I started each team.

Round 4

Round 4 - Standard QB 10% RB 50% WR 30% TE 10%
Round 4 - PPR QB 10% RB 50% WR 30% TE 10%

I like the way this team has come together in the standard league with Johnson, Jones, Ellington and now Vereen. If he played all 16 games last season instead of missing time with a broken wrist he would have been a Top 15 running back in standard formats. He should play at a high level if he can stay healthy, but he's the type of running back to target in Round 4 no matter what you do with your first three picks. In the PPR league, I went a different route instead of what I planned. Running back was a priority, and I passed on Ryan Mathews, which I might regret. But I couldn't pass on Patterson here. He makes for a better flex option than Mathews at the No. 2 running back spot, and I know someone from the Richardson, Frank Gore, Chris Johnson, Ben Tate, Rashad Jennings group should fall to me in Round 5. Unless I get burned by that gamble, I potentially hit a home run with Patterson in this spot.

Round 5

Round 5 - PPR QB 10% RB 60% WR 20% TE 10%

My plan in the PPR league worked out with Richardson falling back to me here. There's a lot of ifs with him this season after last year's debacle once he was traded to the Colts, but he should bounce back in a big way. Again, based on my team so far, I should be awesome if Richardson can return to Top 15 status, and I like my chances for that happening. In the standard league, we passed on reaching for a quarterback or tight end and locked up a flex option in Welker. He's in a contract year and should benefit with Eric Decker gone, and I like his value here. I still needed to target another running back option as a flex with one of my next two picks, but Welker should produce at a high enough level to start each week.

Round 6

Round 6 - Standard QB 30% RB 40% WR 10% TE 20%
Round 6 - PPR QB 20% RB 40% WR 20% TE 20%

Quarterback and tight end are becoming a priority in both leagues, and we addressed one of those spots now with Andrew Luck in the standard format. I like waiting for quarterbacks in the second tier, which for me includes Matthew Stafford, Matt Ryan, Luck, Tony Romo, Colin Kaepernick, Tom Brady and Robert Griffin III. Any of these quarterbacks could be Top 5 options, and the longer I can wait for one of these guys -- in this order -- the better I feel. Luck just made sense here, and he should be awesome in likely his best season to date. In the PPR league, I struggled between a third running back in Tate or my tight end in Dennis Pitta. Given that I had just Morris and Richardson, I thought running back depth was the better route. It will only work out if Tate doesn't falter and loses his job to Terrance West and I get a tight end with Top 10 potential. These are some of the tough decisions you have to make in the middle rounds, and you just have to hope you choose right.

Round 7

You never want to jump in on runs unless there's a player you're targeting, and that's what happened here in the PPR league. Round 7 had Kaepernick drafted at No. 74 overall followed by Brady at No. 76. Since I was looking at quarterback and consider Ryan a Top 5 option, he was the right pick for this team. With a healthy Jones and Roddy White, Ryan could easily have a career year. Prior to Jones getting hurt in Week 5, Ryan was on pace for 5,277 yards, 32 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He might not reach those heights this year, but he's worth the gamble if you wait on a quarterback like me. In the standard league, I added running back depth with Thomas. He's a better option in PPR leagues, but he can be a spot starter or flex option if needed.

Waiting for a tight end worked in the standard league with Jordan Reed at this spot. I'm now excited about this starting lineup of Luck at quarterback, Ellington and Vereen at running back, Johnson and Jones at receiver, Welker at the flex and Reed at tight end. He played well last season before concussion problems ended his year, but he should be a Top 10 tight end if he can stay healthy. In the PPR league, I landed a potential steal here in Freeman. With Steven Jackson out for the preseason with a hamstring injury, we could see Freeman's ADP rise. He might not be in Round 8 much longer, but if he is grab him, because he could challenge the likes of Bishop Sankey and West for the No. 1 rookie running back this year, especially if Jackson has to miss time during the season.

You can never have enough running backs, especially high-upside guys, and I added quality depth in both leagues here. In the PPR league, Robinson is the type of running back who could emerge from a crowded situation. He'll split time with Thomas and Mark Ingram, but he could end up as the best of the trio, especially if he gets consistent time in passing situations. In the standard league, I accomplished two goals by drafting Stepfan Taylor. He is not only a handcuff option for Ellington, but he also can stand on his own as the Cardinals will likely use him at the goal line and also to run between the tackles. Taylor is a sleeper to target with a late-round pick this year.

There's a tight end I was targeting in the PPR league, and I was confident I could wait another round to get him. With that in mind, it's time for a lottery ticket pick with Tavon Austin. He was a bust as a rookie in 2013, but he could rebound with a healthy Sam Bradford. It worked out that he was available at this spot in both leagues, and he ends up as my No. 4 receiver for each team. Ideally, I'll never play Austin barring a breakout campaign, and if that happens I can either trade him or use him as a spot starter whenever Johnson, Jones or Welker are out in the standard league or Johnson, Brown and Patterson in the PPR format.

Heath Miller might not excite many Fantasy owners, but I like him as a sleeper this season. The Steelers have to replace Emmanuel Sanders and Jerricho Cotchery, who combined for 113 catches, 1,342 yards and 16 touchdowns. Antonio Brown remains the No. 1 receiver in Pittsburgh, but Miller should be the No. 2 target in the passing game ahead of guys like Markus Wheaton, Martavis Bryant, Dri Archer and Justin Brown. Miller had a career year in 2013 with 71 catches for 816 yards and eight touchdowns, and I expect him to be closer to those stats this season after last year's comeback from a torn ACL left him a little out of sorts. In the standard league, we'll gamble on McFadden this late. He will share touches with Maurice Jones-Drew this year, but if McFadden doesn't get hurt he could be a steal in this round.

In the PPR league, I decided to handcuff Richardson with Bradshaw. Not that I expect much from Bradshaw this season, but at least now I have the Colts backfield locked up after taking Richardson in Round 5. In the standard league, put White on your radar because he could be this year's LeGarrette Blount for the Patriots. Should Stevan Ridley start fumbling again or Vereen get hurt then White would play a prominent role, and he's worth a late-round flier in all formats.

The Broncos DST should be much improved this season after adding DeMarcus Ware, Aqib Talib and T.J. Ward through free agency and drafting Bradley Roby in the first round of the NFL Draft. If Von Miller (ACL) can return at 100 percent then this DST could be a Top 5 unit. I took them here in both leagues and like looking for the Broncos DST as a mid-level starting option in all formats.

Adam Vinatieri fills a lot of the criteria I like for Fantasy kickers since he's part of a great offense in Indianapolis, he kicks indoors and has a late bye in Week 10. He also was a Top 10 kicker in standard leagues last season. Justin Tucker was a Top 3 kicker last season and has made 68 field goals the past two years. If the offense improves in Baltimore as expected, Tucker should have more opportunities to score this season.
