Lippy225 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keggerz Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) 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.

firstandgoal Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 what about Andre Johnson, Miles Austen, and Tony Romo as my first 3 of 4 picks, then boought the farm on Torian in the supplemental.

Seahawks21 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheddar Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) 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.

LvilleSlugger Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HERNANDEZ (early injury, now okay) MATT BRYANT PATS D J.RINGER (since dropped) Needless to say I am 1-7. In August, thought this team was good.

Seahawk Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) 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) Edited November 3, 2011 by Seahawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coordi88 Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 looking at your team i cannot imagine how you are 7-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) 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. Edited November 4, 2011 by Seahawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankerboy Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) 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. Edited November 4, 2011 by bankerboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 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 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
