Yeah I like that team. That Fitz Kolb combo could be sneaky good.

Looks like you did what I do. Pile up running backs and wide receivers while everyone goes ape shat over qb's.

Colston had knee surgery (again) so that worries me. I also wonder how Lloyd will do without McDaniels.

Daniels could be up or down... historically he has been a big part of the Texans offense but coming off injury you never know... they havn't thrown too much to their tightends this preseason, but I still think he's a good pick.

Can't go wrong with Foster though -dude looked like a beast last night

overall good team.

that is a pretty solid team, but be careful cuz what youll notice in 10-team leagues is that everyone has a pretty good team...that being said, you ahve a ton of talent and a ton of potential...

What do you guys think about my team? Its my money league. Its a 12 team league also.

QB Ryan
RB Rice
RB Turner
WR Burress
WR Knox
WR Crabtree
TE Gronkowski
Flex Forte
K Henry
Def Philly

Bench RB Deangleo Williams, Moreno, and Lynch
WR Shipley, Evans, and Thomas
I know I am pretty weak at WR cause i overloaded at RB cause no WR was worth the pick when I drafted in the 3rd to 5th rounds. I proposed a trade Moreno for nicks i am just hoping the guy is dumb enough to do it. If not i am gonna offer up Forte for a good WR.

who's your backup QB? because Ryan is a great 'real' QB, but he's not always a great 'fantasy' QB. he'll likely end up top10-12, but that means you should have another guy to play some matchups too IMO.

I assume your going to start Kolb due to getting double points, but I don't expect either of he or Ryan to put up REDIC stats, Regardless of how much ESPN loves Julio Jones...

I have a pretty good record in fantasy sports....and usually do best when i think my team lacks.



When I think it's good i tend to stick with players long after I should have benched them.



I don't have a football team on this board so I am not spilling a secret....Danny Amendola is going to be big......real big.....especially in PPR leagues....which my keeper league is.....and Danny was one of my keepers in that league.


If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

I rarely draft a backup Qb. I will just get one off the waiver wire Mcnabb and Hasselback are available so probably one of them.

fair enough.

i usually do draft a backup QB. more as a speculative play (guy with a high ceiling who I might be able to trade later for a good player).

last year it was Kolb. dropped him when he got hurt and picked up his backup because they had a couple easy games coming up. that worked out well

McCoy, McFadden & Nicks is a really good core.

thanks. i think thats exactly how the picks went down too. i took mccoy (passed up turner and mendenhall, just went with my gut) but didn't reach too far with those picks.

I'm hoping Ingram has a really solid year. I'm big on the saints being good as a team, so i think he will flourish in that offense.

(One of) My Team(s)

QB: Colt McCoy
RB: Peyton Hillis
RB: Montario Hardesty
TE: Ben Watson
RB/WR: Josh Cribbs
WR: Greg Little
WR Brian Robiskie
K: Phil Dawson
D/ST: Browns

Bench:
TE Evan Moore
WR Mohammed Massaquoi
WR Eric Norwood
WR Carlton Mitchell
QB Seneca Wallace
RB Brandon Jackson
RB Owen Marecic

(I'm serious)

The only problem (besides Week 5) that I forsee, is that I can only play one of Watson or Moore, I'd totally prefer a WR/TE spot cause I'd totally play both of them... Cause I know as soon as I sit Watson for Moore after he has a big game, Colt's ganna throw everything to Watson that next week...

I've done the Entire Cleveland Browns Fantasy Team thing for going on 5 years now... and only didn't do it ONE year..

GUESS WHICH YEAR....

j/c

Here are the 2 teams I drafted this week. Both are 12-team, PPR leagues.

#4 pick:
QB - Joe Flacco
RB - Ray Rice, Jahvid Best, Mike Tolbert, Rashad Jennings, CJ Spiller, James Starks
WR - Hakeem Nicks, Wes Welker, Brandon Marshall, Danny Amendola, Braylon Edwards
TE - Jermichael Finley
K - Neil Rackers
D - 49ers

I should get a ton of catches from Rice & Best. Not crazy about having my QB & top RB on same team.

#5 pick:
QB - Drew Brees, Kevin Kolb
RB - Lesean McCoy, Tim Hightower, Ryan Grant, Tashard Choice, Bernard Scott
WR - Larry Fitzgerald, Santonio Holmes, Percy Harvin, Mike Thomas, Malcom Floyd, Steve Breaston
TE - Tony Gonzalez
K - Mason Crosby
D - Jets

I really like this team. Probably could use a better TE. I took Gonzalez in 15th round.

My team I just drafted today was a 12 team league, pretty standard scoring. Only thing is I missed the first three picks so the comp picked for me and gave me Steven Jackson, Arian Foster and Hakeem Nicks.


QB- Kevin Kolb
WR- Hakeem Nicks
WR- Santonio Holmes
WR- A.J Green
RB- Arian Foster
RB- Steven Jackson
TE- Owen Daniels
K- Phil Dawson
DEF- Minnesota

BN- Mark Sanchez
BN- Johnny Knox
BN- Greg Little
BN- Bernard Berrian
BN- Marshawn Lynch
BN- Jared Cook


Not real happy with my QB situation, hopefully Kolb is the real deal.

in a 14 team league...i think you just committed highway robbery. As logn as freeman backs up his stellar last year youre in very good shape...and if Benson gets loaded up upon because Cincy cant pass...then if Bush stays healthy youre golden

Just had my 10-team snake draft (picked 8th.) Went a little off-the-board...

CLEVESTEVE'S CANNON FODDER
8 LeSean McCoy, Phi RB
13 Steven Jackson, StL RB
28 LeGarrette Blount, TB RB
33 Brandon Lloyd, Den WR
48 Brandon Marshall, Mia WR
53 Shonn Greene, NYJ RB
68 Ryan Mathews, SD RB
73 Matthew Stafford, Det QB
88 Plaxico Burress, NYJ WR
93 Jay Cutler, Chi QB
108 Lee Evans, Bal WR
113 Eagles D/ST D/ST
128 Falcons D/ST D/ST
133 Mason Crosby, GB K
148 Evan Moore, Cle TE

starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 RB/WR, 1 TE, 1 D/ST, 1 K

I think all 4 of my wideouts are absolute steals in those rounds, and I picked all of them significantly higher than ESPN's rankings, so I must be on something
