RB Maurice Jones-Drew, Jac RB
RB/WR Thomas Jones, NYJ RB
WR Roddy White, Atl WR
WR Anquan Boldin, Ari WR
TE Owen Daniels, Hou TE
D/ST Cowboys D/ST, Dal

Bench Kevin Walter, Hou WR
Bench David Garrard, Jac QB P
Bench Ahmad Bradshaw, NYG RB
Bench Dustin Keller, NYJ TE
Bench Jamaal Charles, KC RB
Bench Patrick Crayton, Dal WR

I was very pleased with my draft, picked 3rd. Hopefully they all stay healthy and MJD has the yr I think he is going to have.

That is a strong PPR team. Top PPR back and two of the top 10 PPR receivers. Run DMC and Bradshaw are strong options who you will likely start over T Jones most weeks.

the funny thing is I think I do too

I don’t assuming you can start 3 RBs. Starting Gore, Jacobs, and Rice is going to win you a lot of weeks.

In your 14 team league you have to start Ronnie Brown, Cedric Benson, and probably a receiver in your flex. Yuck but understandable in a 14 team league especially when you have Tom Brady and Jason Witten.

In what round are most of you picking Rivers up?

2 leagues, 12 teams each:

QB: Palmer, Big Ben

RB: LaDainian Tomlinson, Ryan Grant, Tim Hightower, Cedric Benson, BenJarvus Green-Ellis

WR: Calvin Johnson, Dwayne Bowe, Eddie Royal, Kevin Walter, Moose

TE: Gates, Heap

D/ST: NYG

K: Jason Elam

QB: Warner, Farve, Pennington

RB: Brandon Jacobs, Ryan Grant, Larry Johnson, BenJarvus Green-Ellis

WR: Fitzgerald, Chris Chambers, Eddie Royal, (NYG) Steve Smith

TE: Shockey, Winslow

D/ST: Bears

K: Bironas

Do you like either, neither or both?

Both teams are pretty good. Like team 1 slightly better.

12 PPR league. Auction style draft with what I paid after each player. You can see my basic strategy of getting a lot of second tier players instead of blowing $70 on AP. I’ll take Westbrook, Johnson, and Rice all day over AP, Derrick Ward, and Ricky Williams.

QB Matt Schaub 9
RB Ray Rice 27
RB Chris Johnson 47
RB/WR Brian Westbrook 35
WR/TE Braylon Edwards 19
WR/TE Vincent Jackson 21
WR/TE DeSean Jackson 20
D/ST Jets D/ST 1
K Nick Folk 1
BE Ahmad Bradshaw 11
BE Jamal Lewis 2
BE David Garrard 4
BE Steve Smith 1
BE Mike Bell 1
BE Justin Gage 1
Total: 200

Think I like your 14 team more than your 12, odd.

??? I like him getting both Witten and Brady in the 14 team league. But he’s got much better RB depth in the 12 team league.

It’s funny how down people are on Thomas Jones (myself included). He was a top 4 back in my Yahoo league last season and I couldn’t trade him for anything.

[QUOTE=Buff49er;430201]12 Team League on NFL.com, #6 in the draft order

QB 's - Kurt Warner, Brett Farve
RB’s - Matt Forte, Ryan Grant, Thomas Jones, Knowshon Moreno
WR’s - Andre Johnson, Wes Welker, Lance Moore, Anthony Gonzalez
TE’s - Owen Daniels, Greg Olsen
K - Kris Brown
D/ST - Giants[/QUOTE]

WOW, were you drafting with idiots??? That is a stacked team, barring serious injuries you walk about with it, I don’t even need to see the other teams.

Agreed, Jones helped carry me to my 2nd consecutive regular season championship.

That being said I don’t expect that type of production again. Teams are going to loading the box on the rookie QB and Leon Washington is going to get more touches this season.

I don’t think Witten will have his usual year, teams will just double cover him now.

In what round are most of you picking Rivers up?

I have him as a keeper from my team last year, and last year in my scoring format (ESPN), he was 2nd as a QB behind only Brees. LT will be in better shape this year so he might lose a few numbers here and there but will largely be worth a high round pick. I’d be surprised to see him last beyond the 3rd rd.

[QUOTE=NewNiner;430207]In what round are most of you picking Rivers up?[/QUOTE]

Pick 31 to 45.

I don't think Witten will have his usual year, teams will just double cover him now.

Yeah, it’ll be interesting to see what happens. I expect Williams to step up some this year, to help fill the TO void. And they’re saying Bennet had a great preseason, so you may see them line up 2 TEs at times.

I think Leon Washington has a big year.

I personally like Leonard Washington… :lmao:

Ashy Larry is better

In what round are most of you picking Rivers up?

He’s been going in my leagues from late 2nd to early 4th. Typically in early 3rd.

8-man league this year
RB’s weighted heavy at 1pt/10yds plus TD’s

Problem I have is that everyone had all the stud RB’s as keepers so I don’t love my depth beyond Grant/Slaton. The top 3 RB’s that were free agents were Peterson, S. Jackson and S. Slaton. Then it dropped down to guys like Portis, Westbrook and Jacobs before scrubs were available. I don’t like my chances but we’ll see…

QB: Aaron Rodgers (keeper); Brett Favre
RB: R. Grant, S. Slaton, T. Jones, W. Parker, J. Lewis, J. Jones
WR/TE: A. Johnson (keeper), V. Jackson, R.E. Williams, D. Driver, M. Clayton, J. Witten
K: Elam; Folk
D: Eagles; Chargers

We use flex positions, so most weeks, I’ll be starting Grant, Slaton, best RB matchup, A. Johnson, R. Willams/J. Witten.

Since none of you guys are in any of my leagues, the sleeper of this draft is Matt Hasselbeck.

There I said it.

Carson Palmer. And by today everyone has drafted.

Yeah, since drafts are all done, lets rate team names.

Mine is…

LIGHTS OUT TILA
