Gopher Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Today and I had to work and didn't read the complaints until I got home. Of course anyone could have brought up what they wanted before the draft. The roster size seems to have been an aberation or wasn't saved. No worries. I wasn't really making a complaint, just realized after I had made my first pick that I wasn't sure if this was redraft/keeper/dynasty, what size roster we are shooting for, etc. Actually, I thought the same thing.... I should have asked those questions during the 3-4 days that we were waiting for this thing to fill up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Still a little unclear on this..... Redraft, 25 rounds, but is this right? If so, we would need 3 DL, 3 LB, and 3 DB to make up 16 starters total, correct? Total Starters: 16 Number of Starting QBs: 1 Number of Starting RBs: 2 Number of Starting WRs: 2 Number of Starting TEs: 1 Number of Starting PKs: 1 Number of Starting DT+DEs: 2-3 Number of Starting LBs: 2-3 Number of Starting CB+Ss: 2-3 I don't mean to be a pain in the butt (after all, this is just a mock and it's May). Just wanted to clear everything up before we get too far along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most pick 3 LB'ers, 3 DB's and 2 DL'men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 OK 4th round 4.01 Andre Johnson 4.02 Donald Driver Isn't Gopher a Bears fan? 4.03 Colston 4.04 Carson Palmer 4.05 Lynch Actually, I'm a MN fan, but I'm happy to grab the 5th-highest scoring WR from last year (going by your league's scoring) with this pick. Driver is about as consistent as they come. I didn't intend to take him with this pick, but after Winslow "fell" to me at 3.11, in the middle of a WR-run, I felt fortunate to see Driver still there and couldn't pass on him. I like the Winslow pick as well, considering he scored only 2 points less than Gates last season, and Gates went at 2.5, while I got Winslow at the end of the 3rd round.

Gopher Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I know taking Winslow and Gonzalez in the first six rounds looks weird on paper, but with 2 PPR for TE, Gonzalez by far outscored any of the WR left on the board at that point in the draft. So, I figure I would slot him in as my Flex and be assured of having a stud TE every week, and most weeks two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like TE's a little later, but you are correct sir. I like Witten this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted May 31, 2007 Author Share Posted May 31, 2007 Some interesting rosters so far. Al only has one WR but 3 top LB'ers, Doc doesn't have any LB'ers so far, Kelly has a strong team, Carthaginians doesn't have any LB'ers yet either.

Al only has one WR but 3 top LB'ers, Doc doesn't have any LB'ers so far, Kelly has a strong team, Carthaginians doesn't have any LB'ers yet either. Well, finally got my first LB. I felt there were adequate enough defensive players to be had later so I waited. Regardless it looks like week 6 byes are gonna kill me,lol. I haven't been paying to much attention to them since it's a mock. I took a few older players as well on offense, Hines Ward, Fred Taylor. Figured they'd produce a couple more years. I've done a lot of pre-drafting. With my busy schedule now I haven't put as much thought and effort in this mock as I would a real draft. Still I think I have a decent team and don't think I'd end up at the bottom come years' end. I really Like KellySmash's team though. Looks like a tough team to beat. I think everyone's done a good job and you can tell they know their fantasy football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alchico Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 This is and IDP league and Kelly has no defense. While his offense does look good, 3 qb's is a little much this early. But since i'm a IDP newbie, what do i know. I think jetsman has a very well rounded roster so far and of course i like my team as well.

But since i'm a IDP newbie, what do i know. I think jetsman has a very well rounded roster so far and of course i like my team as well. You do know you need to field a whole team. This is my second year and LB'ers are the RB's of the defense(esp MLB'ers), DB's the WR's(esp tackling safeties) and DL the TE's. In this scoring system LB'ers follow RB's in scoring, so you do need balance. Al you have some nicee LB'ers. You have some CB'ers(safeties generally get more tackles) and in the Tampa 2 they do get more tackles than in most systems. Barber was good last year. In fact some of the better CB's don't score well because they aren't thrown at or used in run support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbimm Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I feel like my team is OK. I waited maybe a bit too long to get my QB and wound up with 2 QB's who arent gonna get me a ton of points but if I were to play my matchups well should be OK. RB will be boom or bust for me and will probably cost this team a chance to be a top team.My WR are solid no doubt but still have some work to do on the TE position. Def I feel like I am putting together a solid well balanced team on that side of the ball. At this point in the draft I am trying to fill out with BPA while still keeping an eye on positional requirements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted June 2, 2007 Author Share Posted June 2, 2007 This team was picked completely by computer. He bailed after the draft started so I put him on auto-pick. Not a bad team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact some of the better CB's don't score well because they aren't thrown at or used in run support. I'm in my second year also and I do know the importance of LB's. Also the reason i took the top 2 CB's was they don't normally score as much as safeties but those 2 are usually right at the top and quite a bit higher scoring than the rest of the cb's and on par with the higher scoring safties. The safties are much more bunched together near the top. Quite a few teams have stayed prety much offense orientated (4 or less IDP players after 15 rounds) which seems like a little too much offense. Especially considering 1 took a 3rd QB already, 1 took a true backup RB(Turner-and not the LT owner) and 1 guy has 6 wr's. Since we start 8 on offense and 8 on defense, having 12-13 offensive players and only 3-4 densive players after 15 rounds doesn't make much sense. But again i'm a newb so what do i know.

Won the league last year but Eli was a disaster(drafted Russell and Stanton this year) and McIntosh and Ahmad Brooks as rookies last year. Saw you took Ahmad. What do you think? Interesting story on Brooks as MLB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
