Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

Next year I'm drafting running backs with my first 4 picks.... That seems to be my weakness.

[NateDogPack12]

Started Leshoure and Doug Martin today for a combined 6 points in my league.

Could have started Ridley and McGahee who each put up 22 for a combined 44 points.

I'm disgusted with myself.

McGahee's injury scared me away.

Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

Next year I'm drafting running backs with my first 4 picks.... That seems to be my weakness.

That's been my focus the last 2 years, is making sure I was set at RB. Especially this year, good receivers were available in the middle-to-late rounds, and some decent options pop up on the waiver wire weekly. But RB? Not so much.

Unfortunately, my strategy still hasn't managed to pan out for me.

Last year I drafted

1. Charles - out for season week 2
2. McFadden - out for season week 4
3. WR
4. Best - out for season week 6

Luckily Sproles, Laurent Robinson and Tebow got me to the playoffs, only to lose based on starting Mike Williams instead of Laurent Robinson (such a bone-headed move)

This year, due to crazy keeper scenarios
1. Murray - dud
2. McFadden (kept) - dud (aside from the 1 time I didn't start him, against Pittsburgh)
3. WR
4. Martin - dud

Just can't win lol. 0-4.

The only move I could have changed this week for better results would have been Phil Dawson over Mason Crosby in my one league, needless to say went 2-0 this week beating the current first place team in both leagues!

Devery Henderson over Desean Jackson... also, Alex Smith over Peyton Manning, though that one would have been slightly less productive.

Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

Should've started Dez Bryant and Mike Williams 34 and 24 respectively

Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

For this first time this season, my starters have out-produced every one of my bench guys

So I guess I have no business being in this thread this week lol

Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

Shonn Greene.... 32 ATT, 161 YDS, 3 TDS = 36 PTS


Ugh.


Down by 4 with the following to go:
Me: Philip Rivers, Willis McGahee
Opponent: Peyton Manning, Demariyus Thomas


I'm f'ed.

Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

Benched RGIII for Kevin Kolb thinking RG would have to sit out because of his concussion.

Now I'm losing by 35 points. Would be losing by 12 and actually have a shot with McGahee tonight.

Also another league, I should've started Maclin over Wayne, and should've started Phil Dawson over --empty--. Instead of a 25 point victory, I'd have ~ a 50 point victory.

Re: The "I should have started ___" thread

Shonn Greene for me. Started Peterson, Charles, and McGahee instead. Went into last night down 84-47. Then Aaron Rodgers played and singlehandedly saved my butt.
