  1. Speaking of which, may as well post mine... 12 team league and our draft was an auction, not snake.

     

     

    Brady

    Fournette, Hyde, Riddick, Crowell

    Woods, Garcon, Jones Jr., Cooper, Hogan, Edelman, Mike Williams

    Kelce

    Gould

    Saints

     

    I'm a bit iffy on my receivers although I didn't spend more than $18 on any receiver

    Depends what the other teams have done.  If everyone rolled with 2, you kinda have to or you're going to be starting an absolute bum in the bye week.

    Tyrod, Dalton and Trubisky are the top 3 remaining qbs on waivers. 

    I suppose. If this was a snake draft, it'd make sense. If it was an auction draft, completely different. Also, Tyrod, Dalton, and Trubisky aren't bad options for a bye week. It'd just depend on how their season goes because all 3 are questionable but I do see Dalton and Taylor having a higher potential to succeed

    Just did my fantasy draft and would love some thoughts (I know RB is my weak spot haha) 

     

    Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 FLEX, 1 DST, 1 K

     

    12 TEAM LEAGUE

     

    Wentz, Goff 

    Hunt, Morris, Ingram, Penny, Crowell, Bernard 

    Thomas, Thielen, Baldwin, Sanders, Bryant (Dez) 

    Doyle

    Saints 

    Butker

    Why 2 QBs? You can always pick up a decent QBs in free agency when your QB is on a bye.. and I'd probably keep Goff over Wentz based on how many weapons Goff has

    Both are great qbs. I'm still taking Cam Newton. His peak is higher and he wins with less imo. His accuracy doesn't concern me cause he's such a great running threat. Cam was an mvp for a reason. 

     

    @Apple Juice Led them to the playoffs? He had his best years with LOB. How long before he gets back to winnning 12-13 games? Russ has won more but he's also had the better supporting cast. 

     

    The Hawks bias is also obvious. Of course Russ will get more votes. 

     

    Anyway, both are great qbs. Conversation started with @ReggieBush saying Newton isn't a top 12 qb which is hilarious and false. 

    Playoffs or not, Wilson carried the Seahawks last year. Without him, they would've probably went 6-10 and that's being generous. LOB helped him sure, but Wilson still is the guy that's leading the offence down the field. 

     

    Btw, I'm a Patriots fan and hold no allegiance to the Seahawks whatsoever.

    Rivers, Stafford, and Carr are not better than Cam. Smh. Empty stat qbs imo. 

     

    Cam has proven he can be a championship caliber qb. Something those 3 haven't. All have little to none playoff success.

     

    Russell is pretty great and I'm a fan of his but I'm still taking Newton. Until Russ carries a team and plays like an MVP, I'll stick with my decision. 

     

    2015

    Cam had 45 total tds 

    Russ had 35 total tds. 

     

    Cam also beat Russ in the divisional round. 

     

    Btw this never gets brought up. Russell could of made a better throw on the 1 yard line...

    So I guess you didn't bother watching last year then? Because that's EXACTLY what Wilson did and I barely watched any Seahawks games.

     

    Also, Wilson has made it to two SBs whereas Cam only one. Making it once to the show doesn't prove to me that you are a championship caliber QB.

    Would you guys rather have regular season allstar qbs like Rivers, Dalton, Stafford, etc 

     

    Or qbs that win in the playoffs but don't put up numbers like Eli or Flacco? 

     

    Of course every team would prefer a Rodgers or Brady but I'm interested in hearing how you guys think about the midde of the pack qbs. 

    Rivers and Stafford have the talent to win in the playoffs. It's just a matter of execution from their teammates and coaches that I'd say have failed them.

    I just got back into this last month after being off for a year.

     

    The new Celebi quest needs us to make three new friends. 

     

    Anyone still playing who wants to share their friend code? 

     

    Mine's 8652 5481 7999

     

    EDIT: @Twilight Sparkle @GLASSJAW @Apple Juice

    Any of you peeps still playing and want to be friends?

    I actually deleted the app almost a year ago. Got bored of it and haven't even thought about going back. Although now that trading is out, I can make use of trading the regionals I collected for different Pokemon but we'll see.

    Foresee a long year for the pass game unless Trent Brown can find his old form or Waddle can step up. 

    Wish we could see more of Wynn. He looked promising but now we won't ever know until next year.

    Which also opens up Gurley lol.. Sean McVays offense is crazy good 

    True. But what I'm saying is if they want Goff to throw more, that just means less touches for Gurley (probably won't happen but it's likely it could if they throw the ball more often than last year)

  10. 5 hours ago, Zach Parise said:

    Hahah yes im thinking the same but i put it in one way Gurley will be on the field alot because of the defence zeke will be stacked in the box a lot 

    But does Gurley get the touches? They might get Goff to throw more now that they've got Cooks in their arsenal. I'm sure they want to see more from Kupp as well. He had a decent season for a receiver and they'll probably try and throw it his way more often now that Cooks and Woods will get most of the attention

    Man doing the NFL FANTASY is going to be rough.. torn between Bell, Gurley and Elliot as my 1st overall pick.... 

    Part of me thinks Gurley will decline and won't be as huge as he was last year. Part of me also thinks Zeke will bounce back strong and could be a huge risk pick early.

    I doubt they win 4 games

    If Tyrod Taylor can win games while he was on a much worse Bills team than it is now with subpar receivers when comparing to Landry and Coleman, a potentially improved Njoku coming off of last season, and Hyde being able to run the ball and the versatile Duke Johnson, it's hard not to get excited for what the Browns could do. Of course, expectations should probably be low but I still expect the Browns to shock some people.

     

    On 2018-07-27 at 7:40 PM, King Heffy said:

    Yeah he does.  Still shocked the Browns passed on him but Cleveland gonna Cleveland.

    Same. Could've had a Chubb/Garrett combo which would've matched Chubb/Miller but oh well

  13. Browns are going 9-7 this year and finish 3rd in the division. That's my prediction this year.  I'm liking their team the more I look at what they've done this offseason (minus the draft although Chubb looks like a great pick)

    Seriously what's with these black athletes with multiple baby mamas? Apparently they only like to raw dog and make no glove love.

     

    Wrap it up or get a vasectomy instead of thinking your pull out game is fire.

     

    Then they end up going broke gambling or paying child support or paying off old friends and family like Trent Richardson.

     

     

    Ever considered maybe the women in those cases didn't care if they had unprotected or not and maybe wanted to bear children knowing that these rich athletes will be the ones paying the child support? Either that or the ladies didn't allow them to pull out?

  15. Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this.... but we should make it a thing where every time Woo lights someone up with a solid hit or just hits someone in general, the fans in the stands should should "Woo!!". Could be something cool for us Canucks fans to have like we did with Luu'ing Luongo

  16. Just goes to show how tough it is to be a professional athlete if you don't bring it everyday. I guess Hackenberg didn't or couldn't perform when he needed to. Either that or the passion/desire to become a professional athlete simply sizzled out and he didn't dedicate as much time as he should have to become a starter.

    Damn, that song is beautiful.

    3+ months of waiting. I wish they would come to North America. They only play at clubs in London and the odd festival. Although they're making their first appearance at a huge music festival at Ultra Korea this year so I can't wait for their liveset

  18. Not to pull on old strings here but does anyone remember Avicii's 2013 Ultra Miami set? The very first time he premiered his country EDM style.


    I remember watching the live stream and everyone hated it, including me. That wasn't the Avicii we all knew but we stuck with it anyway throughout the entire set. Fast forward a couple years later and Wake Me Up and Hey Brother have become one of the all time greatest EDM songs we've had the chance to listen to in recent history. 

     

    Still very sad that a legend was gone too soon.

  19. @ReggieBush

     

    Instead of quoting your post, figured I'd just @ you

     

     

    I expect Seattle to be much better this year. Last year was just abysmal to watch.  Wilson can't do it all on offence and even then, there wasn't much that he could do offensively due a terrible OL. I thought Seattle was a better run stopping team last year than how much credit you give them (although I didn't watch a lot of Seahawks games to its entirety to be completely honest) and I felt that Seattle's D was decent enough when it needed to be in some games. Again, I expect Seattle to be much better offensively and defensively may struggle a bit early on
