Curious, how many Fantasy Football Teams do you guys manage?

How many Saints do you have on those Teams?

I have one fantasy team. I have Ginn, Saints D, Lutz and Kmara. I just offered #2 QB in the league so far Alex Smith for Drew Brees. No dice. I then offered Kareem Hunt #1 in the league RB for Ingram. No dice. Oh well. Ive started the Saints D every week except vs the Pats. Pretty WhoDat of me if I do say so. Im surely the biggest homer on this forum. Im about to pick up Hooman. I think he played a big part in Ingram going off.

I'm only in three leagues this year. We had a great IDP league we'd had going since 2001 that folded this season.

League one: Brees, Ingram, Cam Jordan

League two: Brees, Lattimore, Vacarro, Morestead

League three - 14 team legacy league, 34 keepers, 50 active roster plus five taxi squad and five IR slots: Kamara, Brandon Coleman, Tommylee Lewis, A.J. Klein, P.J. Williams, Nick Fairley (IR)

I only have one team. I don't see the point in having more. You're not gonna have all the same guys on each team, which means you'll inevitably be playing against your own players. As for Saints players on my team, I only have Kamara. I treat my fantasy draft as much like a real life draft as I can. I don't take guys for name value or because they play for my favorite team. I try to get the most value out of every single pick.

One team. Michael Thomas and Kamara. I got MT off the waiver wire last year and Kamara for $1 this year.

just 1 this year.
Drafted Thomas #1, with the 14th pick. happy to have him, but numbers aren't there
Have had Ginn off and on, bc my league does return yards
Picked up the D the morning of the Lions game bc I was in town- 3 TD's
That afternoon was at a bar and traded David Carr and Funchess to the guy who lost Rodgers. Landed A. Bryant

So my RBs in my CBS League are Mark Ingram, Carlos Hyde, Demarco Murray, Alvin Kamara, and Dion Lewis...

If I'm such a homer, why did I leave Kamara on the bench in favor of Hyde...

Wish Frisco would trade Hyde to the Eagles already...

In my friends league, I've got Micheal Thomas, Alvin Kamara, Willie Snead, Will Lutz and the Saints defense. And I don't allow falcons on my team.

I take very few players out of drafting queue, but Matt Ryan is one. I think it's different having a RB (Freeman) or WR (Jones) and cheering for points from them.

The first child I take off the list every year is Newton. Cannot in any circumstance wish well for that guy.

Well, short of a rare trade where I'm pretty much an outsider in my CBS league (nearly all team managers are from SoCal), looks like I'm gonna totally homer at RB and starting RB1 Ingram, RB2 Kamara the rest of the way as my other RBs are Carlos Hyde, Demarco Murray, Dion Lewis...
