SeductiveNun Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) I'll play - let's see if I can get most of them. Brett Favre * Jim Harbaugh Marshall Faulk * Tim Floyd * Eric Bienemy Ronnie Harmon Ernest Byner Derek Fenner Michael Irvin * Isaac Bruce Tim Brown * Jay Novacek * Chris Boniol * Best I can recall. Floyd blew out his knee in week 1, so I streamed a 2nd RB all season. Got Favre and Irvin via trades either just before the season started or just after week 1, I forget. Pretty sure it was before the season started though (we drafted like a week or so early). ETA: * = typical starter also forgot about Ernest Byner the first time I made this list.

rajncajn Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 I can't remember that far back but I do remember I had Randal Cunningham as my QB on my first SB winning team I wasn't sure about most of the team, but I remembered I had Plummer, Pickens and Moore. When I went and looked at the stats for that year the players names mostly came back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboysDiehard Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My first draft pick was Brett Favre, my second was Elway. Followed by a huge WTF from half the league. Yeah, I was a different kind of idiot back then... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davesworld23 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My 1st team, from what I can remember, I had Peyton, Faulk, (I think I had Jamaal Anderson that year) Bruce and Gonzo. Won the league my 1st year... been hooked ever since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Actually, I don't believe this was my first team, but rather the first that I'd drafted. My first year I took over a team that had already been drafted. I believe my QB was Jeff Blake and recievers Rob Moore & Carl Pickens and RB Means. Beyond those I don't recall and probably only remember those last three because I think I had them as my keepers. Just remembered I had Larry Centers as well.

the outlaw Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) oh boy, what memories this brings back, as i was the laughing stock of the league (and probably still am, to this day - lol), when, with the #1 overall pick i took kordell "slash" stewart instead of terrell davis! lmao however, i did end up with a couple of pretty decent RBs though, in marshall faulk and curtis martin...can't remember any of my WRs from that season...

stevegrab Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I tried to go back and check my info, but the stone tablets had crumbled Honestly cannot remember that far back, too many other little factoids in my brain now. I do remember sitting around in the commish's basement with a pool table drafting using a magazine. Then after the draft getting roped into being co-commish and helping to do the scoring by hand the first few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croe Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I don't remember most of my first team. but I remember my brother telling me to draft the Best RB first and second picks, then told me to watch the trends of when to pick every one else. first pick 2002, Alexander. Lost the championship to the guy who had him in 2005. Don't remember much of the rest of the team. I had Brady and McNabb early on but not sure who it was in the first season.

rattsass Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 All I remember about my first actual live fantasy draft is that I took Joe Montana in the first round - and that doomed my season. I had no clue what I was doing, but then none of us really did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papajohn Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) I drafted two defenses within the first 7 rounds. A kicker in the 9th and later a backup kicker. I didnøt draft any RBs until very late and then I drafted both of Miami's RBs because then I was sure to get all the RB production from one offense, which I at the time thought was briliant. I finished dead last in a league where we all where in out first year, which I still think is quite an accomplishment Edit: I remembered wrong, this is the team I drafted in my first year back in 2010: 1. Drew Brees, QB NOS 2. Miles Austin, WR DAL 3. Jason Witten, TE DAL 4. Reggie Bush, RB NOS 5. Was Welker, WE NEP 6. New York Jets, DEF 7. Ronnie Brown, RB MIA 8. Percy Harvin, WR MIN 9. Ryan Longwell, K MIN 10. T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR BAL 11. RIcky Williams, RB MIA 12. Pittsburgh Stellers, DEF 13. Devin Hester, WR CHI 14. Matthew Stafford. QB DET 15. Greg Olsen, TE CHI First thing I did after the draft was to drop Greg Olsen and pick up a backup kicker, but never the less I was hooked as soon as the first game started. 14 Edited September 26, 2014 by Papajohn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My first draft pick was Brett Favre, my second was Elway. Followed by a huge WTF from half the league. Yeah, I was a different kind of idiot back then... I did the same thing my first year of FF.. only my first pick was Steve Young followed by Brett Favre in the 2nd.... depth, FTW. Fortunately, I traded Young for Chris Warren and Andre Miller 6 or 7 weeks into the season. Young got hurt a few weks later, and those 2 had awesome seasons... brought me up to a .500 team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zooty Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My first pick was Barry Sanders followed by Steve Young. had Erict Rhett and Anthony Miller team. Team was pretty bad and finished last. My favorite was scoring by hand and always having to do one owners score twice because his math didn't match mine. His was wrong 99.9% of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) The year I won my first SB I had the 3rd pick in the draft ... the draft went like this: 1.01 - Steve Young 1.02 - Dan Marino 1.03 - Emmitt Smith That was the year Emmitt went off.

Big Country Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I drafted Anthony Miller the year he had 14 touchdowns. I think Fantasy Football Index was pumping him majorly that year. I also remember getting Chris Warren at the end of the 2nd round that year and being ecstatic. He had had 1,500 yards rushing the year before, but nobody had heard of him, so he slid. Name recognition meant a lot back then. 1995 - my first year playing and the year of the draft I mentioned above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heehawks Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Randall Cunningham Herschel Walker Curt Warner Icky Woods Mark Clayton Henry Ellard Ricky Sanders Phi/Oak Def Nick Lowery That's all I can remember too, at least most of my regular starting lineup. First draft in 1988, my older neighbor friends in college invited me when I was only a sophomore in H.S. I'll never forget that night. First real exposure to booze and Josh Gordon. I was so f'n stoked they invited me, been drafting with them ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staniels12 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 1992 in my apartment with 7 other owners. We were determined to try this "Rotisserie Football" thing, and were making up rules as we went along! No way anybody would go for that anymore - now everything has to be voted on well before the season starts and everybody STILL bitches I took Marino #3 overall, and then Reggie White halfway through the draft. Everybody just looked up from their Street & Smiths and said "Wait, we're doing defensive guys too?" And we just said "Screw it - why not!" Funny thing is, we still not only use IDP, but about 75% of the original scoring rules we made up on the spot. And I traded Marino and Reggie for Emmitt and finished 2nd that year. League is still going strong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripleshot Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 1992, TD only league with a bunch of friends. I picked third overall. Barry Sanders went first, Randall Cunningham second, and I took Emmitt Smith 3rd overall. I remember grabbing Rich Gannon late, thinking he'd give a good return for where I drafted him(he stunk, don't remember who I picked up eventually to replace him). I also had Stoyanovich, who had a nice year. The next year I started playing STATS Fantasy Football in a league with my father-in-law and got hooked for good.
