Reggie Bush sucks

That might be a stretch. He's probably not the best fantasy option but he is def effective on the Saints

That's pretty much what I'm going to do.  That's what I did last year too.  I keep hearing this year that you should take an "elite" WR early, but I'll probably stick to my same old formula (the Faulk Rule).  Take WRs and QBs late.

Fantasy football is fun as shit.

No prep work required with exception of paying attention to who's hurt and who's not starting by the time you draft.

But It's all luck, plain and simple.

1 turner
2portis
3 manning
4To
5Roy

I'm in two leagues. The first draft was held this past Monday at 8:30pm. Unfortunately, work ran late and the computer drafted my first 7 choices for me:

QB's---Cassell, Favre
RB's---Steven Jackson and Deangelo Williams
WR's--Bowe, Colston, and Brandon Marshall(shit!)
TE's---Dustin Keller, Schiancoe
K---Bironas
DST- Vikings

Bench: Earnest Grahm, Felix Jones, Isacc Bruce

Hopefully, my second draft will go better.

I think Schiancoe is in line for a big year with Favre at the helm. Favre loves to throw to the tight end.

Williams is awesome and so is Jackson so I like my RB's.

My QB's suck ass, unless Favre can turn back the clock and kill it this year.
Title: Re: Fantasy FB thread
Post by: Dos Equis on September 06, 2009, 04:59:51 PM
Had my two drafts:

QB:  Rivers, Cutler
RB:  Turner, P. Thomas, LJ, T. Jones
WR: S. Holmes, Holt, Chambers, Bess
TE:  Shockey
K:   Vinatieri
DEF: Bears, Panthers

QB:  Favre, Delhomee
RB:  D. Williams, Westbrook, K. Smith, T. Jones
WR: Colston, B. Edwards, Coles, Avery
TE: V. Davis
K:    Elam
DEF: Ravens

I guess these turned out okay.  Not crazy about Favre and Delhomme as my QBs.  Stayed away from the strategy all of the "experts" talked about (taking WRs early).

good running backs on your 2nd draft maybe you can trade farve mid season just before his old ass starts going down hill  ;D
Title: Re: Fantasy FB thread
Post by: UPINTHEMGUTS on September 07, 2009, 11:11:07 AM
Did much better in the second draft:

QB: Tom Brady
RB: Marion barber
RB: Kevin Smith
WR: Reggie Wayne
WR: Wes Welker
WR: Hines Ward
TE: Antonio Gates
K: Gostkowski
DST: Ravens(of course!)

Thinking about starting Berrian over Ward in week one because of his speed and big play potential.

Bench:

Flacco
Eli
Mcgahee
F. Jackson
Edgerrin James
Choice
Maclin
Berrian
Chambers
Heap
Cardinals DST

Hopefully he will blow up the first few games so I can trade him.  

My kid just had her draft and wound up with:

QB:  Brady, Favre
RB:  Grant, LJ, T. Jones, Moreno
WR: Moss, D. Jackson, Holt, Chambers, Bess
TE:  Winslow
K:  Kaeding

I have 2 chicks in my 1st league this is the first season for them in our league but we will see...

Someone in my league drafted the Steelers D in the FIFTH round this year, and other followed by grabbing the Giants and Ravens.   Never seen that before.

I'm not sure about my team - 11th pick.

Romo, Hasselback

C Jones, P Thomas, M Lynch, Julius Jones

Moss, Roy Williams, E Royal, L Moore, S Smith

Shiancoe

C Brown K

Pats.  Then they cut Seymour.

Title: Re: Fantasy FB thread
Post by: body88 on September 08, 2009, 02:52:02 PM
Grape Ape, have faith in Brace, Greene, Prior and Adams.  The pats d was top ten last year, and I think it will be again this year. Warren and Wilfork are BEASTS.  They are very young in the secondary, which could be tough over the first 2 or 3 games.
Title: Re: Fantasy FB thread
Post by: Grape Ape on September 08, 2009, 06:17:51 PM
Cool.

I would never draft a D that high (5th), and I thought I did well getting the Pats so late.  I felt they were the next tier down from the Giants, Steelers and Ravens.

You don't have to worry about the front 3 or 4.  The secondary is very - very young, so that could be an issue for the first 2 or 3 games, but I think they will gel and get the job done after that.  Belichick can scheme like it's nobody's business.

I wouldn't want Grant as my RB1.  He'll get a ton of touches, but not a whole lot of yards and TDs.  He's three yards and a cloud of dust.

Ok Body, I hope you're right.  I mistakenly started Hasselback over Romo, since he was Sportsline's start of the week,. (I never do this).  It cost me 7 points.

I trail by 9 going into tonight.   He has LT and Gostowski.  I have the Pats D and Randy Moss.  Could be close.

If the pats have trouble it wont be because of the front four.  Jarvis Green (the guy who is replacing Seymour) is good enough to start on any team in the NFL.  He's got good numbers and when he filled in for Sey, he did a great job.  Greene makes starter money for a reason.  The young db's might take three or four games to gel.  If they give up points if will be because of the secondary.

I think the pats will score 28 -34 points tonight.  LT will have an angry Seymour hunting him tonight. Thats a good thing for you.

I met Jarvis Green once.  He was at the GNC in the Copley Mall.  Got to try on his ring.  He was a monster.

Rogers was highly rated in FFB in many of the drafting rankings.  My list had him 3rd, behind Brees and Brady.

Who do I start this week, Hasselback, or Romo vs. the Giants?

That's a toss up, especially since the giants have their pass rusher back.  I'd go with Romo, but Hasselback could still have a great game.
