I'm playing in a non-PPR (point per rocket) league.
I'm starting:
Ghassan Ismail
Salim Idris
Abdul-Malik al-Houthi
Abu Musab (My sleeper - drafted him late)
Fahd Jassem al-Freij
Abu "Hannibal" Sakkar (Flex)
With Free Syrian Army as my starting D/ST.
I'm not totally sold on Ghassan (and depending on what the U.S. ends up doing I may be better off trading him or just cutting my losses and see if I can pick up a Kurdish figher - good value) but I have Ali Abdullah Ayyoub as his backup so I'm screwed either way. My fault for drafting the same position from the same team.
Rounding out my bench is:
Salih Muslim Muhammad (I expect him to come on strong late)
Ali Abdullah Ayyoub
Abu Mohammad al-Golani
Salim Idris
So any suggestions on who I should start/bench? Or any ideas for trades?
I really, really want to win this fantasy league. It's not for money - just bragging rights.

Didn't realize I listed one of my players as both starter and bench.

Once they enter the game they will be the Adrian Peterson of limited engagement no boots on the ground.

US Navy may not rack up that many points.
