BeeR Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Well, I was right on D. Williams ie taking mid-round to couple with Rodgers, which probably beat Brees and whatever RB or WR I could have had in the 2d (knowing I would have probably let CJ the RB slide etc). Whiffed: big on Slaton who I thought would do well and didn't think Portis would fall off the map biggest whiff: Forte, who I argued for as #1 RB Coles Benson, kinda - liked as deep sleeper only, no way would I have expected this K Smith Jennings Called it: Steve Smith NYG (although didn't expect this good) TEs Clark and Daniels (I liked Clark along with Gates as top TEs). Owens being way overrated (for being in BUF if nothing else) LT's fade - didn't predict this bad but knew it was a real possibility w/his age and mileage Did not think Manning's new coaches would impact him much since he is again proving they are mostly just along for the ride anyway. V Jackson (not this good tho) Cassell and LJ sucking (OK so LJ wasn't much of a reach) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takoboy Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 called ray rice and owen daniels (for the first 8 weeks or so anyways). so far, did okay w/ mendenhall and schaub. way wrong on forte, slaton, jennings, ochocinco, TO (i'm a buffalo homer ), raven D , not so fat lendale white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Home runs on R Rice, T Jones, S Smith (NYG), S Rice Doubles: V Davis, Rothlisberger, Schaub, Gore, Burleson, Hester Strike outs: Slaton, K Smith, D Keller, Avery, Chambers, A Bryant, Ward Called it: Forte, LT, TO, LJ, Buf-NE-RB's. Most of my other rankings have pretty much been close. What drove me nuts in my redraft leagues this year is how in almost EVERY round, my targeted player went right in front of my pick. I know that happens, but this year it was ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I struck out big time on Brandon Jacobs and Calvin Johnson. If only I'da taken Reggie Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_am_the_swammi Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Doubles: V Davis, Rothlisberger How can VDavis (top TE in fantasy football) not be a home run? Unless you drafted him in round 5 or higher (which I doubt), he has to be a tremendous value pick, no? Ditto for Big Ben, a top 5 Qb you likely grabbed very very late?

Sprtfan Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) I hit big on Benson, Burleson, and Andre Carter. I got really good value from Mason, J.Jones. I'll also include Laurent Robinson as one I had right but you can't predict injuries. I missed on LT(who I didn't draft since I had the 2nd pick and got MJD), Witten, and L.Coles (I got stuck with both on my main league) I also missed on Jennings. I was not really that high on him but drafted him at the end of the 2nd round and was surprised he was still there. I also didn't like Forte, Barber, and TO this year and was right on those. Didn't expect Hightower to do much this year at all and was wrong on that. Edited November 11, 2009 by Sprtfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) Forgot my whiffs on White, Avery (really the whiff there was their OL) and Big Ben and correctly calling all the following QBs as undervalued: Rivers, Rodgers Warner and Orton. edit: called TJ and Breaston also. Breaston did not even make my draft list. Edited November 11, 2009 by BeeR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butkus Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 My pre-season zen for LT, Jennings, Jacobs, TJ Housh, MBarber and RGrant (to an extent), have me in the cellar in a couple leagues. Ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 How can VDavis (top TE in fantasy football) not be a home run? Unless you drafted him in round 5 or higher (which I doubt), he has to be a tremendous value pick, no? Ditto for Big Ben, a top 5 Qb you likely grabbed very very late? Sure, Davis has been great, but I called him a double because I missed badly on projecting him. I would call him a home run if I had projected him to be a top 5, but I didn't. I had him in top 10. The question was how well did we do on our August projections, so I answered it that way. Same thing for Rothlisberger. My projections missed on the low side, but I still had him ranked higher than most other people did. For R Rice and T Jones, I ranked them pretty close to where they are now in FF scoring, both are a bit higher than my projections were, but not too far off.

Avernus Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I had certain players I wanted to target...some I let slip, others were snagged before I got to take them Ray Rice Ahmad Bradshaw Sidney Rice Brent Celek Ted Ginn Jr. Vishante Shancoe Greg Olsen Pierre Thomas Steve Breaston Donnie Avery I'd like to think of more names, but they excape me at the moment..

muck Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I figured Ochocinco for a bounce back and I own Miles Austin in every league I'm in (and began starting him for the first time the week he played KC). I figured TO for a decline and traded him away in the offseason. I own Ryan Grant in every league, but got him at a value price, so he's performing about inline with where I took him. I whiffed on VJax and Mike Sims-Walker as I cut both in the offseason thinking that I could get VJax cheaper via the auction and that Sims-Walker was so much dead weight. I was also hoping that Josh Morgan would impress while Crabtree was busy being a moran; I was wrong about that, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
