10-team league. Thoughts?

You have a lot of Packer WR if you can figure out who they'll throw to. I'd be a bit fearful of those RB's. You pretty much have to play Murray, and Bradshaw in week one.

[malcolmk14]

I'm thinking Bush/Murray or Bush/Bradshaw since the Bears are playing Indy and they have an awful defense. But Murray/Bradshaw is what I'm sitting with as of right now. One of them may have a strong game. Should be nice when Jones-Drew comes back in full force.

Thinking of flipping one of the Packer receivers for something.

DeAngelo Williams or Beanie Wells?

Miles Austin or Hakeem Nicks?

Williams...Stewart is injured at last report so he will see a lot of action.

Just finished my draft, 12 teams, non PPR standard scoring except TD QB passes are 5 points. QB, WR,WR, RB, RB, Flex, TE, Def

QB - Peyton Manning, C. Palmer
WR - White, Demaryius Thomas, Greg Little, Brandon LaFell
RB - Forte, Steven Jackson, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Bennie Wells, Isaac Redman, Evan Royster
TE - Brandon Pettigrew
Def - Seattle

[DropIt]

Just finished a 16 team, 16 round draft where I selected at 9th overall.

QB: B. Rothlisberger, T. Tebow
RB: A. Peterson, D. McFadden, D. Wilson. J. Dwyer, B. Jackson
WR: D. Bowe, K. Britt, M. Crabtree, B. Quick, M. Floyd
TE: M. Bennet, B. Watson
DST: Cincinatti

Took a hit at most positions in order to stock up on running backs in a league as deep as this, although injuries could completely downtrodden my season

Rothlisberger against Bills or Cutler against Colts????

Roethliberger is playing the Broncos in week one. I would probably go Cutler, just because Indy is transitioning from a 4-3 to a 3-4, so Freeny and Mathis might be a bit out of their element. If Cutler has ant time he can carve up the Colts secondary.

Doh! I meant Broncos. Was confusing my decision between Steve Smith and Santonio Holmes with this one. I have the same feelings as you, but Espn feels differently.

I was offered Larry Fitz and Dwyer for Reggie Wayne and Donald Brown...

This seems like a good deal, any thoughts?

Make sure he knows no tradebacks. Take it and run

[Hockeyguy15]

Take it.

[Tinordi]

QB: Matt Ryan, Jay Cutler
WR:AJ, Dez Bryant, Denayrius Moore
RB: Arian Foster, Peyton Hillis
TE: Gates, Tamme
Def: Green Bay
K: Bironas
Flex: Beanie Wells, Mike Williams TB,
BN: Manningham, Blount, James Jones, Steve Smith

I'm pretty happy I guess

[Sainters7]

Just had 2 drafts in the last 2 days:

14 team league, drafted 8th. W/R/T flex spot:
QB: Brees, Ponder
RB: Fred Jackson, McGahee, Ronnie Brown, David Wilson, Felix Jones
WR: Marques Colston, Denarius Moore, Justin Blackmon, Doug Baldwin
TE: Gronkowski, Fleener
K: Hartley
DEF: Baltimore

--Not sure what to think, was pretty slim pickings by the later rounds.

10 team league with a bunch of dummies, drafted 9th. W/R flex, plus 2 indiv D players which I've never done before, nor do I understand it:
QB: Brady (by himself but lots of gooders left in FA)
RB: Charles, Murray, Sproles, Hillis
WR: Steve Smith (CAR), Bowe, Stevie Johnson, Demaryius Thomas, Denarius Moore
TE: Witten, Daniels
K: Hartley
DEF: Seattle, NYJ
D: Leodis McKelvin, B.J. Raji

-- Have no idea if my D is good, but pretty happy with the rest.

Actually just to add to my last post, do any of the IDP guys in here know what are the best positions to target? We just have 2 spots for an over-all IDP. I have zero idea what positions I should even be targeting.

I've never done it before but I would guess linebackers, since they get the most tackles and also can get sacks and picks?

[Sainters7]

Thanks, ya afterwards I was looking at what some of the other guys did there with the draft & kinda figured that, put in a waiver claim for Patrick Willis who was somehow not drafted.

Alot of Fantasy owners will be crying this weekend. Arian Foster hurt his knee in practice and is Questionable for Sunday.

[Montana Moe]

Not guys like me that drafted Ben Tate! I'm hoping he gets more touches, my RB's are less than stellar: Ben Tate, Pierre Thomas, Adrian Peterson, Mikel Leshoure... :thumbdown:
