QB: Ben Rothliesberger, Kurt Warner

WR: Larry Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson, Dwayne Bowe, Domenik Hixon, Ted Ginn Jr, Steve Breaston
TE: Bo Scaife
K: Nate Kaeding
Def: Steelers

I took Fitz 1.11 and CJ 2.2 after Andre Johnson went 10th (9 Rbs before that). Got Warner in the 7th

Thoughts?

After 10 back and forth counter proposals I finally made a deal with my dad:

I get:
Matt Forte CHI
Lavurnes Coles CIN
Devrey Henderson NO

I send:
Larry Fitzgerald ARI
Dwayne Bowe KC
Tedd Ginn Jr MIA
Earnest Graham TB

FYI--Henderson and Robert Meachem fill the same role on the Saints offense (speed guy). Look at the week one box score. If Meachem has a lot of plays/targets in comparison to Henderson, then trade Henderson while you can. I think that one of those two guys will have an Az-Hakim in 99 type year. I am just not sure which one.

Thanks sam, I wasn't sure, I knew he played some at FB but thought he was more of a goal line/short yardage RB most of the time.

Well it will open up a roster spot for me as I'm sending 4 and getting 3. Ginn and Graham I got REAL late in the draft. Bowe I got late (6th or 7th round) and with Cassell out and their offense sucking major donkey balls I'm happy to get value for him when I can. Yah, I'll watch with Henderson but I plan on starting Megatron with Hixon at WR and now Forte, Addai, Thomas Jones at RB week one.

AlexB · 09-05-2009, 05:00 PM

Just had our draft today... 14 team keeper league (keepers only based on 'salary').

PPC & for 1st downs, have to start QB, 1 RB and 5 receivers, or 2 RB & 4 receivers, at least one of which has to be a TE. Plus one IDP per position group

QB Philip Rivers, Trent Edwards (k)
RB Ryan Grant (k), Chris Johnson (k), Joespeh Addai
WR Anquan Boldin (k), Wes Welker (k), Eddie Royal (k), Percy Harvin
TE Jason Witten
K Rob Bironas
DL Justin Smith, Chris Long
LB Karlos Dansby, Lofa Tatupu
DB Adrian Wilson, Nate Clements

Flyer picks
RB Brandon Marshall (to back up Grant), Jerome Harrison
WR Earl Bennett, Austin Collie, Laurent Robinson

The league heavily favours QBs, and WR/RB are roughly equal, perhaps with a slight bias towards WR. I'm pretty happy with it - solid in most areas I think without being spectacular in any.

Theory behind an all NFC West defence is that they all get to play each other (!), and the rest of that division's schedule allows them to make plays...

ArlingtonColt · 09-07-2009, 11:52 PM

12 team PPR league I chose 11th, I usually wait a LONG time on QB's and it seemed to work out well until allovasudden a backup QB run started and I had yet to grab my starter... ugh anyways here is my squad

You start: QB, RB, RB, FLEX, WR, WR, TE, Def, K

QB: Matt Cassell, Kyle Orton
RB: Steve Slaton, Brian Westbrook, Marshawn Lynch, Ahmad Bradshaw, Earnest Graham, Jamaal Charles
WR: Terrell Owens, Brandon Marshall, Hines Ward, Jericho Cotchery, Earl Bennett
TE: Zach Miller, Visanthe Shiancoe
D: Jets
K: WAIVER (we have 3 slots at the end of the bench undrafted)

MY HOPES are that I am able to trade my RB depth and one of my marginal QB's for a dependable starting QB

Izulde · 09-09-2009, 12:01 AM

12 team league, standard scoring (I think) with 0.25 points per rush

Positions:
QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
TE
Flex (QB/RB/WR)
K
DE

QB - Drew Brees, Jason Campbell
RB - Brandon Jacobs, Marshawn Lynch, Tim Hightower, Laurence Maroney
WR - Roddy White, Hines Ward, Ted Ginn Jr, Kenny Britt
TE - Chris Cooley, Anthony Fasano
K - John Carney
D - Miami

I don't know how I feel about my team this year. I got my usual A-list QB in the first round as per my usual draft strategy, but I also feel like I have really terrible depth, especially at QB and that my WR situation is just ugly.

What do yu guys think?

MikeVic · 09-09-2009, 12:44 AM

Two leagues, two teams:

League 1 (4-pt TD passes, the rest is pretty standard. Defense shutouts are really big. Start QB, 2RB, 2WR, TE, K, DEF/ST... 12-team league, I was 3rd last year):

QB: T. Romo, E. Manning
RB: Chris Johnson (Keeper), P. Thomas, L. White, T. Hightower
WR: R. Wayne (Keeper), S. Moss, S. Breaston, T. Ginn, P. Harvin
TE: G. Olsen
K: N.Rackers
DEF/ST: Jets

League 2 (6-pt TD passes, rest is standard. Start QB, 2RB, 2WR, K, DEF/ST... 14-team league, I was 2nd last year):

QB: P. Rivers, C. Palmer (although after the draft I had a verbal agreement to trade for A. Rodgers one-for-one. I wanted Rodgers more and he wanted Rivers more).
RB: D. Williams, D. Ward, L. White, J. Stewart
WR: D. Bowe, M. Colston, A. Gonzalez
K: Gostkowski
DEF: Jets

I feel alright about both teams overall, but not fascinated by either. I think I have decent depth on the second team though.

Julio Riddols · 09-09-2009, 04:20 AM

My 8- team league, more traditional setup: I always try to get into a 20 team league every year, just for the amount of teams. You have to be real smart about what you pick when in a league like that.. This league will be a more evenly matched one, as depth in an 8 team league isn't an issue.

This one starts the following:

1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, RB/WR, TE, K, Def

10 yards per point for RB/WR/TE

25 yards per point for QB

4 points for passing TDs, all others worth 6, traditional scoring otherwise.

QB: A. Rodgers / M. Sanchez
RB: B. Jacobs / R. Brown / C. Benson / L. Washington / D. Sproles
WR: R. Moss / C. Ochocinco / S. Holmes / S. Breaston
TE: G. Olsen / D. Keller
K: J. Elam
DEF: Baltimore

I think this is a very strong team, with consistency at WR being my biggest concern. I think Jacobs and Benson are very underrated (Took Jacobs at number 2, which raised some brows) And having 3 sure-fire starters at RB plus a couple rush/receive guys in Washington and Sproles gives us flexibility and the ability to play matchups. Sanchez is a slight question mark at QB, but he should be solid enough to keep us in the game he will have to start for us.

spleen1015 · 09-09-2009, 08:50 AM

Here's the team I just finished drafting in my office league. The draft usually take 2-3 weeks because we do it over email.

1.10 - Larry Fitzgerald
2.1 - Calvin Johnson
3.10 - Ronnie Brown
4.1 - Pierre Thomas
5.10 - Jason Witten
6.1 - Aaron Rodgers
7.10 - Lance Moore
8.1 - Beannie Wells
9.10 - Donald Driver
10.1 - Julius Jones
11.10 - Donnie Avery
12.1 - Chester Taylor
13.10 - Matt Schaub
14.1 - Leon Washington
15.10 - Patriots Defense
16.1 - Mason Crosby

The surprises to me were Rodgers and Schaub falling to me where they did. Pierre Thomas got hurt a couple of days after I picked him. What a bummer.

spleen1015 · 09-10-2009, 07:12 AM

The team I drafted last night....

1.1 - Adrian Peterson
2.10 - Brandon Jacobs
3.1 - Drew Brees
4.10 - Roy Williams
5.1 - Vincent Jackson
6.10 - Willie Parker
7.1 - Brandon Marshall
8.10 - Beannie Wells
9.1 - Lance Moore
10.10 - Chester Taylor
11.1 - Chris Henry
12.10 - James Davis
13.1 - David Garrard
14.10 - Jets Defense
15.1 - Mason Crosby
16.10 - Jeremy Shockey

There was an initial run on TEs starting at 4.4. The first 4 TEs were taken and I figured Williams and Jackson were better than the TEs that were left. By 6.10, there was another run on them and I was the only team without a TE. So, decided to just wait until there weren't any other players I wanted before a TE. Then folks started picking backup TEs and Shockey was the only some what decent option left.
