MnLefty Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Nobody is truly killing me, I'm 3-1 and looking ok... but I have one draft decision that is driving me nuts. I was picking 10/10 and ran a bunch of mocks where I almost always ended up with Calvin Johnson and either AJ or Roddy White... when draft time came AJ was gone, LeSean McCoy fell to me and I took him and Roddy. Calvin went next. To this point I don't really remember what made me take Roddy instead of Calvin, but I'd be 4-0 and looking nearly unstoppable with Calvin instead of White. I thought I had a steal with Britt at the end of rd 6, then he got hurt... Also took Tate near the end of the draft as a lottery ticket and was loving it for a while... but didn't play him on the first 2 good weeks, didn't move him when he had value, now he looks like nothing more than the lottery ticket I drafted.

detlef Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Where do I start? Team 1: Mendy, H Nicks, Mike Williams, D Clark, S Greene Team 2: Foster, Mendy, Chris Johnson Team 3: Foster, Gore, D Will, Matt Ryan, Santonio Holmes Nice to see Foster get it going this week, so hopefully I can remove him from the list. Nice to see Gore put up those numbers, but he honestly didn't look that explosive on the runs. Just holes big enough to get through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detlef Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Matt RyanMcCoy V. Jax L. Fitz Either you're really hard to please or you're really hard to please. If you're referring to LeSean McCoy, he's 2nd and 3rd RB in two of my leagues and I'm sure about as high in the other. If you're referring to Colt McCoy, he's top 20 in both. Where did you draft him that would make you expect more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB49ers Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Mendenhall!!!!!, rb#1 my butt....I hoping my other Rb core can save me from this debacle, right now my other RB are Blunt, Wells, D. Thomas, Benson and hopefully picking up Ridley from Waivers. Although not a bad problem to have we only start 1 QB and I have Stafford & Vick, started Stafford this week, luckily that didn't cost me a win.

jberg Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Gore has been killing me too but I didn't draft him I inherited him with a keeper league team I took over so I don't blame myself on that one. Decker and L. Moore are killing me at WR3. I keep consistently picking the wrong one. Last week I went with Decker, 4 points, Moore had 18 on my bench. This week I go with Moore, Decker has a huge game, Moore gets about 4 points again. I didn't like that L Moore pick on draft day, I instantly regretted the second I said his name out loud.

bdub1988 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 League 1: Mendenhall (Jerk) and TB M. Williams League 2: Greene (Who I took over Welker, I'm such a freakin' idiot) and V. Davis. I also took Andre over Calvin...this is the league of bad decisions. I coulda had Calvin and Welker...hindsight is 20/20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winks Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I was going to say Big Ben and Mr. Holmes, but right before Sunday games another owner offered me Orton and V Jackson for those 2. Do you know how long it took me to hit the OK button? Put it this way, a new faster than light particle has been discovered. Now all I have to do is get rid of Mendy (although it is a scoring only league so he has not hurt me too bad) and all will be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekez Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Another vote for Gore, ride him out the first three weeks for paltry points. Then bench him this week when he's hurt and not starting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cy_Hawk Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I didn't start Greene wek 4, but I'd still say him & MWTB. All I can say is my team is being held together by Brady, Megatron & Steve Smith (Carolina) & Beanie was on my bench week 4, but will be starting whenever he's active going forward. In another Big Ben has helped lead an otherwise stacked team to a mediocre 2-2 start. So much for waiting on QB (except for those of you who got Stafford) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrom Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I hate the following people: Big Ben Roddy White Brandon Marshall Mike Williams No-show Moreno(even though I got him in the 8th round) These guys have all lead me to a monster 0-4 start in one of my $$ leagues.

Decimator Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 If I saw Mike Williams in the middle of the street, I'd try my best to strangle him to death. Seriously, I thought my team was perfect until I got limited production from BOTH my wide receivers (I'm looking at you, Maclin--although he did win me a week 2 game). Now I have such a mish-mash at WR that I never know who the hell to start. It's embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrowAT Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Rashard Mendenhall Shonn Greene Matt Ryan & Eagles D I am 3-1 currently in the league. The only reason I am not 0-4 is that the rest of my league has terrible luck when playing against me and half of them are just plain stupid. Oh also I scored Newton & DThomas of the WW in week 2. However, wasting the three picks above is going to come back and bite me in the long run. Rest of my team is below. Note I haven't set the roster for Week 5 yet, but did move some players around from week 4. TEAM: Cam Newton Shonn Greene Willis McGahee Rashard Mendenhall Calvin Johnson Mike Williams Jermaine Gresham Eagles D/ST John Kasay BENCH Matt Ryan Brandon Marshall Anquan Boldin Mike Thomas Lance Moore Daniel Thomas Stevan Ridley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebra Stripes Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Michael Vick, he put on a skirt after week one, earned the bench after two weeks of Nancy and costing me 2 games. Then of course I lost a 3rd because she is grabbin some splinters last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 In my dynasty/salary cap league these are starters: Big Ben or Sanchez, SJax, RWayne and DClark In another league DWill (cut already), Greene (on the bench), Ingram (on the bench), Mike Williams TB In another league Gore, Hillis, Holmes, Mike Williams TB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
