Knowshon Moreno

Steve Smith

Donovan McNabb

Steve Smith Carolina or Philly?



Olsen should be Cam's safety blanket. Let's hope he goes to him early and often during the year. Especially in the redzone.

No shots, but have you guys seen Cam at QB? He's completed like 5 passes to his WRs. I have almost NO hope for Smitty this season

And last time I checked Olsen Greg Olsen was 2nd on the depth chart behind Jeremy Shockey... for both our sakes, I hope it changes when rosters are finalized.

Agreed. For where Steve is getting drafted though, I guess it's worth a shot. But all QB's, especially young ones, love big targets and TE's usually develop that chemistry early with their play callers.
I wouldn't worry too much about Jeremy Shockey. He FINDS ways to get on the injured list. Maybe this year will be different, but I think his body is breaking down unfortunately.

2 kickers, 3 defenses.

Brady, Vick, DeSean, Witten are the only good things. Trade either QB for some talent. Please tell me this was a 20 man league

what the heck was your strategy?? U need to try and make alot of trades.....but im hoping this is all a joke

I second this. You have no direction on your team and although you've got names like Vick and Brady, you only start one of them. Makes no sense.

Trade Vick ASAP. His value is sky high and you can get a much better RB.

i had the 2nd overall pick in a 12 man league.
I wanted Peterson with 2nd, but he was taken. 2nd was too high to take megatron. I took Vick
2nd round I took desean
3rd round and to flight WR and any other Suitable RB that i liked was taken. so i panicked and took Brady.
it went down hill from there. i neglected my need for runners while loading up on D.

my worst draft ever, i hate high picks....

 

[monopolyman630]

^I agree w/ everyone else. Keep Brady and trade Vick for a RB1 or a good 2 for 1.

 

[denni5themenace]

at it being a 12 man league

im sorry but there is no hope for your team. tashard choice and dexter mccluster? really?

This dude offered me Brady and Tashard Choice for Sam Bradford and Rashard Mendenhall.  I was dumbfounded.  

Not happnin' THB, come with something stronger shun.  My teams not that strong in that league to begin with since I missed my first 3 picks, but I tried to salvage the best I could.

dj Milk:  I like the team for the most part, only concern I have is with your second RB. Grants unstable for me at least, Thomas and Ridley are ?'s but who knows, a strong second RB is hard to find that will give you consistent pts on a weekly basis.  WRs are pretty good, but Rice will be getting covered a lot since he's the only major threat they have aside from a decent year from Mike Williams last year.. it'll be tough for that team esp. if TJack is leading the way (glad he's someone elses problem). Qbs are good if they can stay healthy - all in all - for a 14 team league, that's pretty damn good i'd say.  Good luck.

Prob. gonna drop Titus soon.

QB's: If Stafford can stay healthy, you have a good 1-2 punch at QB. Maybe you can move a QB for a TE or a RB/WR.

RB's: Rice is gonna end up top 5 RB this year, plus Jacobs is a HUGE pickup this year. He's gonna end up having a better year than AB. Benson won't do much cause that Bengals offense is just terrible. Try to shop him around. And DWill, read Benson.

WR's: Megatron is a beast, Brandon Lloyd won't have the year he had last year, but with Orton as the QB, he can put up decent points. If MArsh can get on the same page with Henne, and if Henne can improve drastically, Marsh is in for a big year. Drop Hines Ward and pick up Antonio Brown.

TE: Olsen isn't really a good fantasy QB, but he'll get you about 5-6 points a game.

D/ST: Chiefs D has a tough schedule this year. What other D/ST are available?

All in all, You have a decent team. You have 2-3 players that, if they have a season that they're very capable of having, can make your team one of the top teams in the league (Jacobs, Marsh, Dwill/Benson)

Clayton, Mark WR STL	PHI	Sun 1:00pm	5	0.0	22.2	4	0

Considering the competition in this league, I was ecstatic to grab Moreno in the 4th and Hightower as my Flex. I really, really like both of them this year. My WR's are thin as hell because we play 3, but I loaded up on back-up RB's assuming at least one of those starters gets hurt and I can use them as trade bait.
If Vick performs, I like my chances.

This team is loaded, but I want to trade up for an elite QB. I've got 5 RB's that are legit starters or Flex options and 4 WR's (Sims-Walker is a HUGE sleeper). I have no chance at Rodgers and likely Vick, so my choices are Rivers, Brees and Romo. I'm hoping for Rivers. 

I'll take any feedback I can get.

Philly does and they will score bunches.  I had Maclin last year and dude came thru on a few games(10 tds).  Plus it looks like Maclin and Vick has that connection.  Plaxico is an unknown factor and that Jets offense as far as passing goes was very inconsistent last year.  Sanchez looking like a stud one game... and other games he was horrible.  I could be dreading this but I had no one else to drop.

[denni5themenace]

reports saying CHris Johnson signed. how far have you guys seen him fall?Does this put him in the top 3 backs ahead of rice and Charles?

 

[champcruthik]

^ In recent drafts I've seen CJ fall to late-first/early-second (anywhere from the 10th to 14th overall pick). That should change now with him signing, probably mid-first in early September drafts.
Retro's girl drafted better than Megatron

With him signed, I wouldn't hesitate to take him number 1..... Top 3 at the worst.

[champcruthik]

^ Alright I'll try to help you out. You can fix your team by trading, like others recommended trade Vick or Brady for a RB1. Next, you don't need 3 good defenses try to package something for a RB2. Lastly check your waiver wire for sleeper RBs possibly Hardesty or Helu.
RCK, taking CJ top 3 could pay off long-term in the playoffs but that's risky considering he's expected to come out of the gates slow missing camp and valuable practice time due to the extended lockout. I would still take AP and Rice over CJ at this point, maybe even Charles and Foster. 5th overall sounds about right at this moment. 

 

[Deleted member 38182]

What do u see in Rice?

As of right now I have my rankings in this order:

AP/CJ, Charles/Foster, Rice/MJD/etc.

 

[joree85]

Here's the draft results from my work league:


Matt Schaub
Greg Jennings
Anquan Boldin
Rashard Mendenhall
Darren McFadden
Kellen Winslow
BenJarvus Green-Ellis
Stevie Johnson
Joe Flacco
Lance Moore
Ryan Torain
Deion Branch
Michael Bush
Garrett Hartley
Philly Defense

League is PPR

 

[denni5themenace]

I guess people are hoping rice will get more tds because he'll get more goal line touches?
