zekez Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 This upcoming weekend ( first week of two week playoffs) I will be starting exactly ONE player who I drafted as a starter, McCoy. Because of injuries (Martin, Gronk, Vick) or poor performance and dropping guys (Bowe, RG3, Roddy), I've had to essentially redraft my starting lineup - McCown, McCoy (only drafted player), Vereen, Allen, Cooper, and Pitta. So anyone else out there starting one (or a couple) of originally drafted players and still in the playoffs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BA Baracus Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 In the Ladder I am still rolling with most of my draft. Wilson Charles Moreno Murray/LeVeon Andre Johnson Decker Some TE or another Some DEF or another Prater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easy n Dirty Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 All 6 of my skill position starters this coming weekend will have been drafted - Ryan (admittedly weak at QB but he has a nice matchup), Charles, Ivory, Bryant, Marshall, and Vernon Davis. I guess you could look at that as being very fortunate on my part (hard to argue), or also that I've not done a great job of filling in my two weak spots (QB and RB2) over the course of the season through free agency (also true).

MothAudio Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Two [2]. Peyton and Gore. My drafts were a mess this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efranklin Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) Now that Peterson is out 2 out of 11 starting players I actually drafted. Just call my team the "All Waiver Wire Team" My lineup starting lineup currently consists of: QB Romo (traded for him mid-season) WR Josh Gordon (believe it or not he was a waiver wire pick up in week 1) RB Zack Stacy (waiver wire pickup) TE Jimmy Graham (drafted) FLEX Bobby Rainey (waiver wire pickup) FLEX Harry Douglas (waiver wire pickup) FLEX Toby Gerhart (waiver wire pickup) K Garret Hartley (waiver wire pickup) D Lavonte David (picked him up right after the draft once I realized nobody drafted him) D Paul Posluszny (drafted) D Sean Lee (waiver wire pickup after he got injured the first time) Edited December 10, 2013 by efranklin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud29 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) I'm surprised at how many players I have from the draft yet, really: QB1: Matthew Stafford - trade QB2: Andrew Luck - WW pickup RB1: Marshawn Lynch - drafted RB2: Knowshon Moreno - drafted WR1: Alshon Jeffery - WW pickup WR2: Michael Floyd - WW pickup TE: Jimmy Graham - drafted Flex: Joique Bell - WW pickup K: Nick Novak - WW pickup D/ST: Cardinals - drafted Edited December 10, 2013 by bud29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wpob Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Caepernick - draft Forte. - draft Vereen - draft D. Thomas - draft Nelson. - draft Wright - waivers Prater - draft Broncos - draft Flex - Jeffrey (draft) and Stacy (waivers) In the semi finals. Huge was drafting Jeffrey late and holding onto Vereen when he was hurt. TE has been fluctuating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo33 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Get this. PPR league at my internship. They've been doing this league for 20 plus years, and keep all the stats in excel sheets, it's pretty cool. Anyway, this is my first year, and my first 5 draft picks were: Doug Martin Steven Jackson Demarco Murray Matt Ryan Danny Amendola Luckily I also picked up Woodhead, Josh Gordon, Fred Jackson and a few others. I jut clinched a first round bye in the playoffs. Payout is 600 I think. Wish me luck!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice717 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Probably the best draft I've had to date...and its not really close. Every player I drafted. 14 team league. QB: Stafford RB: Forte RB: Lacy WR: Green WR: Gordon...initially had Djax but traded him due to bye week issues with Green and Djax. TE Bennett K: Succop Def: Buf/STL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiroacademy Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I have 3 left: Charles, Bush and Fitzgerald. #2 seed and won my first round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like More Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 I only have two left that I drafted: J. Charles S. Vereen Players lost: A. Rodgers J. Jones W. Welker I was still able to get a 1st round bye, getting K. Allen, J. Graham and D. Murray via trades. Charles and Vereen have carried me the past couple of weeks...

stevegrab Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Well it sounds like the OP didn't mean simply players that are starting who you got after the draft, but players who you did not draft as a starter but are starting now. QB - Rivers (3rd QB drafted behind Dalton who I expected to start and Schaub as my backup, Rivers was actually a mistake) RB - Chris Johnson (keeper) RB - Ivory/Sproles (trade / draft) WR - Calvin, Fitz, DemThomas (all 3 keepers) TE - Witten (keeper) D - Bears / Ravens (both off waivers) K - Crosby (drafted) I have been very lucky with injuries (thank you FF Gods).

zekez Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 So far, I'm the only player with only one starter (see a couple twos), don't know whether this is a good thing ir not. I drafted like craud, but managed the waiver wire well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUBARED Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Starting all but my #1, Martin whom I traded thank god. May not start Bush, Bell instead but I drafted Bell also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeductiveNun Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 League 1: Giovani Bernard Knowshon Moreno (drafted in the 13th and more likely a flex option at the beginning of the year. League 2: Romo Charles Lacy D. Thomas V. Davis Hauschka League 3: Romo Charles Lacy D-Jax J. Cameron Most replacements were due to injuries. I did make one trade in league #2, where I traded Reggie Bush and Joique Bell for Josh Gordon back in week 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Two, AJ Green and Lacy. Started 1-5, rattled off I dunno how many in a row now to get to the semifinals, thanks to the additions of: Josh McCown (benched RGIII) Zac Stacy (benched Spiller) Keenan Allen (cut Bowe) Cassius Clay (can't even remember) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekez Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 (edited) With news that Shorts is out, I preactively dropped him for next weeks Def (Mia). With that move, I now have ONE PLAYER left from my originally drafted team (McCoy), and I'm still in the playoffs; flipping crazy.

coachharry Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 I'm rank #1 in my league, my starters for today: Foles - FA pickup J. Charles - Draft Law Firm - Draft D. Jackson - Draft A. Jeffrey - FA pickup Antonio Brown - Draft Delanie Walker - FA I have a mix of draft and FAs on the bench as well. Romo was drafted as my starting QB, but Foles has replaced him.

tazinib1 Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Worst injury crunch I have ever endured since I've been playing FF. Almost has driven me to take a year off. It can't get any worse than it has this year hence the ever popular phrase "99% LUCK and 1% skill" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
