14 team league. Not too impressed with the team I picked. My RB's are turrible. I was smoking way too much pot that day.
QB - Cutler
RB - Sproles
RB - Gore
WR - Fitzgerald
WR - Andre Johnson
WR - Antonio Brown
D/ST - Jets
K - Henery
Back ups
Bradford
S. Greene
N. Washington
Cardinals
Suisham(sp?) Pitts kicker
The scoring isn't standard. Its pretty TD heavy. QB's only get 3 pts per TD, but they are easily the highest scorers. WR and RB are pretty close in scoring, the top RB's are a touch ahead of top WR, but after that the middle of the pack WR are ahead of the middle of the pack RB's. I've always tried to pick RB with my first two picks, but this year I didn't like the RB available when I picked. So I went heavy on the WR with my first two picks and hope they pan out. Might regret not getting McFadden but I don't think he'll stay healthy.
Like in any scoring system there is a pretty big drop off if you don't one of the elite QB's. By the time I picked in the first round 7 QB's were already gone. I was really hoping to get one of the big QB's. After they're gone its just a matter of trying to get a decent guy. I'm happy with Cutler. Last year I snagged Eli really late. I usually do well with late round QB picks.
The benches are short in this league so my best hope at RB is to have a guy get injured for the year and snag his replacement before any other team does. No one gets to handicap themselves so it makes for some interesting situations.
