Recommended Posts

QB : Tony Romo (Not bad but has not been elite by any stretch)

RB1: Jamaal Charles (No note needed)

RB2: DeAngelo Williams (drank the JUMbo pre season coolaid. Finally cut bait this week and it felt better than sex)

RB3: Joseph Addai ( In all important 5th round I wanted B Wells first and F Jackson second but they were taken in the 2 spots ahead of me and I ened up w Addai)

WR1: Vincent Jackson (Has only had 2 good games)

WR2: Steve Johnson (Started out strong, hasnt had more than 60 yards in last 4 games)

WR3: Mike Thomas (Not Good dropped long time ago)

TE: Germichael Finley ( No where near what I expected. Absolutely been killing me)

DST: Jets (Happy about this pick, they've won me 2 games)

 

Is it me or did this team not look awesome in August?!!!

 

I challenge anyone to post a better "you're killing me" team?

How about this:

 

QBs: Peyton Manning (debated between him and Romo, but I hate the Cowboys so opted for Peyton), McNabb & Henne ...after Henne went on IR I nabbed Grossman off waivers...so yes in one week both of my QBs lost their jobs.

RBs: Jamaal Charles,Mark Ingram (round 4) & B Jacobs

WRs: VJax (since you listed him I figured I would too) & Meachem

DE: Trent Cole injury has hurt

LB: Drafted DeMeco Ryans, he has sucked

DB: Drafted Winfield and he hasn't played since week 4.

 

Been playing musical chairs at QB.

Lucky I drafted Sproles, also nabbed Battle off waivers

Drafted Mike Wallace and AJ Green so WR has been a strength

TE: drafted Hernandez in 21st round and got Fred Davis in waivers week 1

DL: Jared Allen has been a monster

LB: Drafted Desmond Bishop, Barnett, Ruud and Weatherspoon so survived the Ryans horror

DB: Drafted Kam Chancellor who has helped to offset waiting for Winfield.

 

Team is 7-1 and is current highest scoring team too...point is...there is more than just 4 rounds to a draft...draft well and work the waiver wire and a team can still do very well.

How about this for your 5 of your first 6 picks (16 team league) PPR

 

Jamaal Charles

Peyton Hillis

Peyton Manning

Kenny Britt

Desean Jackson (yay, not a colossal bust!!)

Danna Amendola

 

I then picked up Earnest Graham. That lasted 2 weeks!

 

Got my first win last week.

In one league my first 4 picks, no joke, were Charles, Bradshaw, CJ2K, and Desean jackson. I win.

 

 

 

I couldn't believe it when CJ2k was still their third round and i taco my pants when i got desean jackson in the 4th.

Rivers - sucks out loud

Steven Jackson - Injured a few weeks which hurt but panning out now

Felix Jones - Predicted him to have a break-out year, not a break-yourself year

DWill - Jumbo kool-aid

Andre Johnson - When is he supposed to come back, again?

Nicks - Andre part deux?

Manningham - Sucked out loud, dropped during bye weeks, would be nice to have now...

Lance Moore - Dropped after 4 weeks of injury

Amendola - Goes on IR week 1

Celek - Sucked, dropped

Fred Jackson - The Godsend of my draft and sole reason I stand at 5-3

HAKEEM NICKS

BRADY(started off well...)

SHONN GREENE

JERMICHEAL FINLEY

DEANGELO WILLIAMS

A.BOLDIN

K.BRITT

C.BENSON

L.MOORE

M.TOLBERT

MIKE THOMAS

A. HERNANDEZ (early injury, now okay)

MATT BRYANT

Needless to say I am 1-7. In August, thought this team was good. Worst draft ever-most under-performing players I've ever had....

16 team league ESPN standard scoring

 

I always find it interesting looking back at what you drafted or what other people drafted and then see what you have now. I can't say I fared much better then the guys above me in some respects esp when looking at my top 7. Some how I pulled off some creative/well timed trades' and got lucky not to mention the wire is your best fantasy friend.

 

I'm not complaining I'm 7-1 it's just shows you how important timing, the wire, trades etc basically everything at your disposal must be used.

 

Drafted

 

1. Andre Johnson, Hou WR

2. Matt Forte, Chi RB

3. Jahvid Best, Det RB

4. Steve Johnson, Buf WR

5. Santana Moss*, Wsh WR

6. Sam Bradford, StL QB

7. Braylon Edwards, SF WR

 

8. Greg Olsen, Car TE

9. Kyle Orton, Den QB

10. Ronnie Brown, Phi RB

11. Cowboys D/ST D/ST

12. DeMarco Murray, Dal RB

13. Isaac Redman, Pit RB

14. Stevan Ridley, NE RB

15. Jacob Tamme, Ind TE

16 Dan Carpenter, Mia K

 

My team now looks like this

 

QB Mark Sanchez, NYJ QB (Traded)

RB Matt Forte, Chi RB

RB DeMarco Murray, Dal RB

FLEX Michael Crabtree, SF WR P (Traded)

WR Steve Johnson, Buf WR

WR Mike Williams, TB WR (Traded)

TE Rob Gronkowski, NE TE (Traded)

D/ST Seahawks D/ST D/ST

K Alex Henery, Phi K

 

Bench Andre Johnson, Hou WR Q

Bench Jahvid Best, Det RB Q

Bench Giants D/ST D/ST (Wire)

Bench Emmanuel Sanders, Pit WR Q (Wire)

Bench Damian Williams, Ten WR (Wire)

Bench Jon Baldwin, KC WR (Wire)

Bench D.J. Ware, NYG RB (Wire)

looking at your team i cannot imagine how you are 7-1

 

Well you have to remember J. Best, A. Johnson had good numbers the first three weeks, Best for more weeks actually. Forte has been a beast. Someone dropped Maclin before week one because there where health issue abound I paired both Maclin and Edwards before he was hurt for Fitz, Gronk and Starks. That trade now looks like a ridiculous one trade but at the time. He had a better QB then Fitz, Gronk was sharring the load with Hernandez (Hernandez got hurt) and Starks was locked in RBBC (Then Ryan Grant got hurt) Maclin showed he was able to play at a high level and Edwards was the #1 Receiver because Crabtree was hurt. So I had Fitz and Gronk for weeks 2 and 3 putting up incredible numbers. I got Hardesty off the wire early week 2. I put him in for his one good game vs Seattle and then took the 0 the next week. Was forced to play Murray because of injuries to Best and you know what happened there he had a huge game.. I Played Seattle D/ST vs The Browns (17pts) timing plays a gigantic role. I've been lucky as well.

Had the 12th pick in a 12 team league. (First six picks)

 

Roddy White

Andre Johnson

Shonn Greene

Matt Schaub

DeAngelo Williams

Mario Manningham

 

Only White remains on my team.

 

Current starting 6 is...

 

Cam Newton (traded for last week)

DeMarco Murray (waiver)

Willis McGahee (traded) / Mike Tolbert (drafted)

Roddy White (drafted)

Brandon Lloyd (traded for last week)

Victor Cruz (waiver) / Darrius Heyward-Bey (waiver)

 

Heartbreaking last week where my team scored the 4th most points and lost, now sitting at 2-6. Plan to at least see if I can fight my way back to .500.

musical chairs at qb here too in one of my leagues lol!! Good analogy:) now I'm rollin with Dalton (which not too terrible I guess) and .....cutler:( v-jax & stevie johnson too, and now that bradshaw out, I'm rollin with that og-banana guy, with Ray Rice though:) miracles can happen:) seems like 90% of the players are hurt this season, no surprise really considering lack of off season prep and conditioning

While I don't have it as bad as some of you guys:

 

4th - drafted Mike Williams (TB) ... sadly I'm still starting him

5th - drafted Shonn Greene to be my RB1 ...started only 3 weeks

6th - drafted DeAngelo Williams to be my RB1A ... cut after week 3

7th - drafted Josh Freeman to be QB1 ... mostly starting Fitzpatrick

8th - drafted Mark Ingram ... only started week 7

9th - drafted MSW ... cut after week 1

10th - drafted Addai as a "great" value pick ... started week 5, cut week 6

11th - drafted Daniel Thomas ... cut after week 1

 

Used McGahee until he got hut ...

 

Rolling with Freeman + Battle + Bush + Fitzgerald + MWilliams (TB) + LRobinson + Witten + Bailey + BUF this week ...
