14 team league. $250 buy-in, $5 per transaction. I've won the last two years. First year we've gone to 3 starting WR's.

QB - Matt Ryan
RB - Frank Gore
RB - DeMarco Murray
WR - Calvin Johnson
WR - Josh Gordon (after Week 2, obviously)
WR - Eric Decker
TE - Tony Gonzalez
W/R/T - Stevie Johnson

Bench: Josh Freeman, Fred Jackson, Mark Ingram, Shonn Greene, Greg Little, Dwayne Allen

I usually play match-ups for kickers and defense. I'm rolling with Miami's D week one.

My team is pretty old. Don't really like my running backs, but I didn't last year, either, until I snagged Alfred Morris on waivers.

Who was available when you selected Megatron?

12 team standard scoring, keeper just started this year. I picked 3rd. I usually keep 2 defenses and just rotate whoever is playing the weaker offense. I do have some browns on my team but they were pretty much all late round picks (Defense was a FA, Jordan I got in the 10th, and Gordon i got in the 9th) If it matters Yahoo said I had the best draft in the league but we'll see.

QB
Colin Kaepernick SF - QB
WR
Randall Cobb GB - WR
WR
Danny Amendola NE - WR
RB
Trent Richardson Cle - RB
RB
Chris Johnson Ten - RB
TE
Jordan Cameron Cle - TE
W/R/T
Eddie Lacy GB - RB
K
Matt Prater Den - K
Def:
Cleveland Cle - DEF

Bench
Chris Ivory NYJ - RB
Josh Gordon Cle - WR
Chris Givens StL - WR
Brandon Myers NYG - TE
Jay Cutler Chi - QB
Chicago Chi - DEF

Did you take Richardson with the 3rd pick?

It is not a great team in a 10 team league. If you move Luck to starter it reads a little better. It looks more like a 12 team league team though.

12 Team league ... I'm not thrilled with it. I decided to wait on a QB/TE and draft WRs because our league plays 4 WR


QB - Tony Romo
RB - Ray Rice
RB - Stevan Ridley
WR - Roddy White
WR - Vincent Jackson
WR - Jordy Nelson
WR - Emmanuel Sanders
TE - Owen Daniels

DL - JJ Watt
LB - Luke Keuchly
DB - Morgan Burnett

Bench

RB - Lamar Miller, Bernard Pierce
WR - Denarius Moore, Alshon Jeffrey

I traded Calvin Johnson for Randall Cobb and Rob Gonkowski.

Gutsy since Gronk's arm had so many surgeries on it that it could get messed up again at anytime, but I like it.

Did a yahoo 20 dollar buy in league last night for the fun of it, and came out with probably my best team. It is only a 10 team league though.

Don't ask me why Charles was still available at pick #16.

I'm scared. Just finished my friends&family league, which is usually my toughest league. 10team this year, but I really like my team even for a 10teamer and I usually end this league hating my draft:

QB: Romo/Stafford
RB: Lynch/Bradshaw
WR: Demayrius Thomas/DeSean Jackson
W/T: Wes Welker / TY Hilton
TE: Tony Gonzalez
W/R: Charles/R.Mathews
K: Crosby
DB: LaRon Landry
DB: Reshad Jones
DL: Charles Johnson
LB:Wesley Woodyard
LB: Jerod Mayo

Definitely took a risk waiting on QB, but hoping I can play matchups well enough with potential high-profile offenses in Dallas and Detroit.

Lynch and Foster are only 27.

14 team league with IDP. Starting QB, 2 RB, 2, WR, RB/WR, TE, K, DEF, 3 DL, 4LB, 2 DB, and 2 Flex DP. Could only have 4 RBs and 6 LBs.

QB: Ryan, Smith (KC)
RB: Ridley, Martin, Miller, Pead
WR: White, Shorts, Givens, Gordon
TE: Cook, Davis (Was)
K: Zuerlein
DEF: Saints
DL: Spencer, Kiwanuka, Hali, Taylor
LB: Laurinaitis, Johnson (KC), Woodley, Bowman, Harris (NYJ), Henderson (Min)
DB: Pollard, Finnegan, Chancellor, McDonald (StL)

10-team league with standard scoring on ESPN (I had the 4th pick in a snake draft):

QB--Peyton Manning
RB--Trent Richardson
RB--Steven Jackson
WR--Larry Fitzgerald
WR--Reggie Wayne
TE--Antonio Gates
Flex--Lamar Miller
D/ST--Bungals
K--Phil Dawson

Bench
WR--Dwayne Bowe
WR--Anquan Boldin
TE--Jermichael Finley
WR--Josh Gordon (suspended for now, but I don't need him right now)
QB--Andy Dalton
RB--Jonathan Stewart (injured now, but should be healthy by the time I'd need him)
WR--Justin Blackmon (suspended for now, but I don't need him right now)

This is a league with my two brothers and 7 random people. I looked at the transactions yesterday and realized that we have a guy who drafted for two teams and moved all of the best to one to try and be dominant. Pretty sad that a guy went through all that trouble to cheat in a meaningless fantasy football league with random people he doesn't even know.

QB-Russel Wilson
RB- Doug Martin
RB-Stevan Ridley
WR-Demaryius Thomas
WR-Randall Cobb
TE-Vernon Davis
Flex-Mike Wallace
D/ST-Cowboys (always my last pick)
K-Randy Bullock

Bench
Nelson-GB
Bradshaw-IN
Cook-STL
Tate-SEA
Jeffery-CHI
Romo-DAL
Greene-TN

8 man league, so not even sure if this counts

QB: RG3

RB: Trent Richardson, Chris Johnson

WR: Dez Bryant, Julio Jones

TE: Antonio Gates

Flex: Vincent Jackson

K: Phil Dawson

Bench: Montee Ball, Eli Manning, Anquan Boldin, Josh Gordon, Rashard Mendenhall, Joe Flacco

Think I like my chances in both...

Here's my team in a Yahoo, 12 team league ... doing alright so far:

QB - Matt Ryan Atl
WR -Roddy White Atl
WR - Jordy Nelson GB
RB - Adrian Peterson Min
RB - Chris Johnson Ten
TE - Tony Gonzalez Atl
W/R/T - Cecil Shorts Jax
K - Stephen Gostkowski NE
DEF- Seattle Sea

Bench
Kenny Britt Ten - WR
Josh Gordon Cle - WR
Carson Palmer Ari - QB
Ronnie Hillman Den - RB
Brandon Weeden Cle - QB
Bernard Pierce Bal - RB

A little Atlanta heavy I guess, but I should be racking up a lot of double points when Matt Ryan throws a touchdown. The two starting RBs should be pretty solid too.

I lucked into Adrian Peterson too! Best part ... the guy who picked first took Drew Brees for some reason. Then in the 2nd round, Peyton Manning was still sitting there, so he took him too! Naturally, he had Peyton on the bench for Brees when he lit up the Ravens on Thursday, so he missed out on those points!

Just a general Question..

Why does Safeties/TD scored by the opposing D/ST count against the other teams D/ST? Those points are scored agianst the offense when the Defense was off the field how can they be penalized for that??

For example I picked up Tampa Bay defense (main starter is 49'ers) yesterday morning. The Jet's scored a Safty in the 1st quarter. 18 Points overall. My league gives 1 point for 14-17 points allowed. So in that category I received 0 points. But why does the 2 points for the safety count against the D/ST? Shouldn't it have been 16 Points allowed??

I've been Atlanta heavy for the last two years. It tends to pay off.

How did you get that squad in a 12 team league?

And why do you own Brandon Weeden?

because most scoring systems are stupid and don't account for points properly. i agree with you.

of course, if you go IDP, then those defensive/ST TDs will just count normally if you have those players.

Unreal that I won with both teams this week but even more impressive that one of the teams gave me a grand total of 15 points from my two RB slots and my RB/WR slot.

45 points from Kaepernick didn't hurt.
