Jiggs50 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Man why do these teams keep handing Belichick former high picks. Not good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 14 hours ago, Mathew Barzal said: First time doing a football draft and I didn't know squat about the sport till this weekend. I tried to look up as many guidelines as I could to salvage my roster so I can figure things out through the year. Participated in a 12 team standard snake draft. Looking like: QB: B. Roethlisberger, T. Romo RB: L. Bell, L. Murray, J. Hill, M. Gordon, C. Sims WR: A. Brown, M. Evans, G. Tate, S. Diggs, W. Snead TE: Z. Ertz K: B. McManus DEF: Redskins Went to reddit to get some advice on my team, got suggested to swap out Ertz and Romo. For TE's, available are B. Watson R. Rodgers E. Ebron K. Rudolph J. Tamme C. Clay O. Daniels C. Gillmore W. Tye B. Celek A. Seferian Jenkins For QB's, available are: J. Cutler T. Bridgewater S. Bradford B. Hoyer J. McCown B. Gabbert C. Kaepermick N. Foles J. Manziel R. Mallet M. Cassel R. Griffin 3 Dak Prescott Dump Romo and use the spot on a young WR or RB who might have a breakout season. Romo isn't coming back for a while, and all of the available QBs are not worth picking up. Keep Ertz. None of the remaining TEs are as good as he is.

Coaches don't know how to adapt to certain players' strengths and keep trying to plug them into 'their' system, guys like BB and Carrol and Reid do.

AriGold Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Here is my team this season, $100 buy in, 9 other buddies. 10 in total. QB - Aaron Rodgers RB - Lamar Miller RB - Eddie Lacy WR - Jeremy Maclin WR - DeSean Jackson TE - Greg Olsen FLEX - Michael Crabtree/Alan Hurns D - Houston K - Stephen Gostkowski BN - Jonathan Stewart BN - Justin Forsett BN - Eli Manning BN - Markus Wheaton BN - James Starks I'm still deciding between Hurns and Crabtree in week 1. Leaning Crabtree base on NO horrible defense but something tells me Hurns is going to get it done this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRussianRocket. Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Draft results picking 4th in a 8 team league...snake and 2QB league R1: Peterson R2: Nelson R3: Charles R4: Stewart R5: Landry R6: Fitzgerald R7: Rivers R8: Delanie Walker R9: Forsett R10: Carr R11: Marvin Jones R12: DeAngelo Williams R13: Hogan R14: PanthersD R15: Gano R16: West Any thoughts? ...I didn't know Charles was out for week 1 until after I drafted him and the guys mentioned it lol. Broke up the RB-WR draft combo and took Stewart the following pick to make up for it. Not to mention he's quite prone to injury so I think regardless of him playing week 1 or not, it was definitely a safety net move to draft another RB after I picked Charles / better safe than sorry. Got Landry and Fitz after back to back making up for breaking up the pattern. QBs started to go so I took Rivers who I believe will have a very solid (bounceback?) campaign. Not the greatest QB, nor the worst...some consistency is what he brings to the table and I'm content with taking a QB in round 7 considering what happened to me when I took ARod+Wilson 1-2 last year and the off years they had Walker can realistically challenge to be the #1 TE in fantasy. Jones will be an excellent sleeper I feel, I mean somebody does have to eat up Megatrons yards afterall. Gano can be #1 again this year. Panthers I took since they're up against Denver who I believe they'll give s tough time with all the changes they've made and the QB situation being up in air. And was really glad to have gotten West with my last pick. Insurance for Charles and if he's not playing, West becomes an instant waiver wire pickup; better to have him now than not imo. ...all in all pretty damn happy with how my draft went. Didn't reach at all, stuck with the game plan (thanks @gmen81) and I think I ended up with great depth all around. Despite being in a 2QB league, the discrepancy between fantasy production drop off amongst top end WRs/RBs compared to QBs is day and night so I didn't sweat and learned from my mistakes in last years draft. Rivers and Carr should give me consistent points while AP/Charles/Nelson/Landry hopefully are able to separate me from the rest of the competition. Not to mention, Rivers is reunited with OC Whisehunt and he should easily light a flame under him and ignite that offense. QBs Rivers, Carr RBs Peterson, Charles, Stewart, Forsett, Williams, West WRs Nelson, Landry, Fitzgerald, Marvin Jones, Hogan TEs Walker K Gano Defense Panthers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckfan_21 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 So annoyed I was out of town/country for my fantasy draft. Team doesn't look that bad, but still miss the event itself. 14 person ppr league QB: Newton RB: David Johnson RB: Deangelo Williams WR: Jordy Nelson WR: Kelvin Benjamin TE: Eric Ebron (Will be replaced by Eifert on my bench when healthy) Flex: Matt Jones K: Blair Walsh Def: Rams Bench: Tyler Eifert, Matt Stafford, Devante Parker, Tevin Coleman and Isaiah Crowell Considering dropping either Coleman or Crowell for Terrelle Pryor but not sure. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmen81 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Gonna try something new here and I may or may not continue it all year, but I am going to give my picks w/spread and my o/u for each game. I also may or may not give out my favorite plays for Draft Kings. You guys can thank me later or punch me in the face later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jägermeister Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 (edited) 3 man keeper, 12 team league. I went for it hard last year, and traded down a few picks. I only had 4 picks in the first 6 rounds. 4 in the last 2. I knew my depth was going to be awful anyways, so I went with some big-time boom-or-bust guys in the later rounds. QB: Wilson RB1: AP RB2: Freeman WR1: Evans WR2: DT (I really dislike making this pick, I hate DT) TE: Ertz K: Catanzaro D: Arizona Flex: Michael Floyd Bench: Melvin Gordon Bench: Abdullah Bench: Philip Dorsett Bench: Paul Perkins Bench: Steve Smith Sr. Bench: Jerick McKinnon Edited September 8, 2016 by Jägermeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you guys think? I wouldn't drop either of those guys for Pryor. All it takes is 1 injury for Coleman or Crowell to be startable players. Pryor still needs a lot to go his way to be fantasy relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
