Re: My FF Team
 

I typically go rb heavy also... but I try to at least fill out the WR position with some WR3 and WR4's that could potential give me more. That's a pretty weak receiving core. On that note, some really good potential trade bait with your RB's. If one breaks out during preseason you might be able to land a lower tier WR2 with one of Bell or Lacy.

Is Heyward-Bay or Hilton available on the waiver wire?

Re: My FF Team
 

No
There was a massive run on WR.
Most teams RBs are very weak and I wanted to start as many as I could.Id rather have RBs in my two flex positions than anyone else.Ill wait for one RB to get the starting job and try and trade them.
Shouldn't take Ryan Matthews long to get a injury then Woodhead vakue will shoot up.I didnt plan to take Lacey but he was the last RB on the board and though I had 4 I needed to start he was my 6th round pick and the value was too good to turn down

Re: My FF Team
 

Waste of time that.
The league manager was undecided on the draft date and 4 people didnt show up as he said he would probably would change the draft date now its been set as a redraft.Not sure ill bother again.

Re: My FF Team
 

Wow.

Re: My FF Team
 

I would like a dynasty league. The big league I am in now is a 16 team, auction, keeper league.
Very competitive. A lot of owners have been in for 15 years.

Re: My FF Team
 

I have been trying to sort a dynasty league but struggling for players.I have two people interested but one wants IDP the other doesnt.
Id happily set one up for people on here if there is enough interested.

Re: My FF Team
 

LOL..I know right. It's a 10 team league. They always draft there QB's first, mainly because we get 6 pts for a td but I choose a different path this year. I picked 4th and took Charles first and took Megatron with my 2nd pick. I got T Rich with my 3rd pick.

The people I draft with spend way to much time looking at ADP's of regular drafts but by the way they were drafting, I could tell they forget that we play PPR.

Re: My FF Team
 

Well here my first draft - thought I'd share.

12 man, non-ppr

1. Adrian Peterson
2. Frank Gore
3. David Wilson
4. Reggie Wayne
5. Ryan Matthews
6. Robert Griffin
7. Daryl Richardson
8. Antonio Gates
9. Anquan Boldin
10. Sidney Rice
11. Fred Jackson
12. Emmanuel Sanders
13. Matt Schaub
14. Dallas D
15. Greg Zuerlein

I know the receiving core looks average but it was my very intention to load up on running backs early and often. I expect to move those guys when the time is right for above their ADP value. Because I loaded up on backs, there are a handful of teams lacking a RB2 and/or depth. I already have offers on Matthews, Richardson, and Fred Jackson in exchange for WR2 for the first two and my pick of Steve Johnson or Lance Moore for Jackson(he's a Spiller owner).

It's only been a day after the draft... I expect to sit back and relax while they outbid one another.

Re: My FF Team
 

Not a bad side at all.
I take the Jackson-Johnson trade in a heartbeat.
He isnt flashy but you know what you get with him,Lance is a great WR but he scores in bursts

Re: My FF Team
 

I might wait on it though. In the 11th round, Jackson was essentially a lottery ticket. I wouldn't start Johnson or Moore so they would sit on my bench regardless. And if by some chance Spiller sprains his ankle, I hit the jackpot.

Re: My FF Team
 

Here is my team from the 12 team family league that I'm in, defending champ and Yahoo gave me last pick in the 1st round (12). Drew went 11 overall (thought I'd land him again)

Could be a few trades on the cards,i was offered Rivers for Manuel and Colston for Robert Woods but thought id try Manuel/Woods/5 round pick 2014 for Colston and 1 round pick 2014 first.Also we have another player desperate for RB help so i have offered him either Ivory/Vernon Davis for Jimmy Graham or D.Murray/Davis for Graham and a first round pick 2014.Im hoping he takes the later as i have plenty of depth and would like three first round picks in 2014.

Real men play Keeper - Auction leagues.

16 team, been around for over 20 years. Based on what most if us knew whe we started & that was Rotisserie Baseball.

Original 3 year contracts, can extend for up to 2 year for an extra 10 each year
6 keepers

180 bucks.

Did something new this year & went in having spent a huge chunk of my budget but I kept Drew at 49 Steven Ridley for 36 & Frank Gore for 25.

Not too bad when RBs can go high 50's and low 60's.

Re: My FF Team
 

Mikel Leshoure?
Anyone you know plan to have a huge year that is not in everyones radar?

Re: My FF Team
 

How many teams in the league?
Anyone short of a good QB you have the bait.


He isnt going to start the season as the main guy but in my deeper leagues I have been taking Stephan Taylor. Mendenhall will get hurt and the other RBs are garbage.

Re: My FF Team
 

I doubt they'll have anything on the wire for you man if Leshoure is the best name you see. Best bet would be via trade. It doesn't have to be a big name guy either. Take a chance on a Darryl Richardson or Lamar Miller... someone in that range that should be cheaper to acquire while having impact potential.

Re: My FF Team
 

I play auction roto baseball and while I agree it's the best way to draft, those 3 hour drafts can get very very very long and annoying.

Re: My FF Team
 

Thanks, I put my BU QB on the auction block.... I feel guilty havering both P. Manning and Brady as weekly decisions lol

Re: My FF Team
 

You should have any issues fixing your problem moving either of those guys. Hell you might be able to land 2 backs.

Re: My FF Team
 

Danny Woodhead or Hillman seems to be the only available backs that have more than an incremental increase in fantasy point projections.. Denver is going to RB by committee this year and no news on Woodhead.

Re: My FF Team
 

Time out.

Oak, that picture of Drew makes me want to find all your posts and drool.
Thank you for the visual candy!

Carry on.

Re: My FF Team
 

I put some frosting on the cupcake for you.

Re: My FF Team
 

Cupcake?

Re: My FF Team
 

Agreed!! Is it a 2 QB league..I am assuming it is. You only have 1 RB thats a starter. How did you manage that?

Re: My FF Team
 

Everyone has a plan until they get hit.


Someone drafted Brees. No one ever takes Brees in the first round in this league! WTF LOL!

It pissed me off so I took the next two top QBs... In hind sight probably not the best decision but... Ill work it out, RBs go down and ill have starters soon enough :)

Re: My FF Team
 

Bernard Pierce
Knoshon Moreino
Vick Ballard
Micheal Bush

Are available

I am thinking about swapping Shon green or Joique Bell out for one of them

Actually lets make this easier... This is what I have and what is available I am TwoDat :)


Bilial Powell is also out there.. It looks like either he or Vick ballard may be my best options for another Starting RB

Re: My FF Team
 

Id get Ballard while he is there.
Few things are certainties in football, but Bradshaw getting injured must be one of them

Re: My FF Team
 

Bell will have surprising value this season. He's like their Pierre Thomas. Moreno and Ballard both have short term value as well. Ball can't block while Hillman isn't anything special. Moreno may be the defacto starter in the short term. I'd drop Greene for anyone of of those guys really.

Re: My FF Team
 

I agree, I'd keep Bell. Not only will he be the second back. With Reggies injury history, you might end up with the primary back in a very potent offense.
