I've got my first draft for Fantasy Football tonight... 10 team league. I'll post my team once its done. I believe its an 8:00 draft, wish me luck
Starting Roster QB: Tom Brady QB: Drew Bledsoe WR: Larry Fitzgerald WR: Terry Glenn WR: Joey Galloway RB: Edgerrin James RB: Dominik Davis TE: Chris Cooley W/R: Thomas Jones K: Lawrence Tynes DEF: Indianapolis DEF: Philadelphia Bench RB: Dominic Rhodes WR: Donte Stallworth WR: Jerry Porter TE: Jerramy Stevens QB: Billy Volek K: Phil Dawson This is all before any wheelin & dealin Please Rate
the only thing that is a scary thought is the defenses... Indy is still an Offensive squad and Philly could easily end up as the last in the NFC east... and Tynes is an interesting kicker... with the chiefs he's garunteed some XP's and with Herm he should get plenty of attempts but he is still a young kicker.... who knows.. Great RB's Edge will get work in the desert and Davis is the Reason houston passed on Bush he has to put up the numbers to prove that it was the right choice to pass on Bush WR's Fitz is a great pick and Galloway is still a top option in Tampa, glenn is a weird Number 2 he's either on or not... Qb's Brady and Bledsoe, your set Overall decent draft 12 team league i assume?
Im in the same league Starting Roster: QB: Donovan McNabb QB: Byran Leftwich WR: Steve Smith (2nd round pick) WR: Santana Moss RB: Rudi Johnson RB: Kevin Jones TE: Jason Witten W/R: Koren Robenson K: John Kasay DEF: Carolina DEF: Cincinnati Bench: QB: Aaron Brooks RB: DeAngelo Williams WR: Reggie Brown TE: Mercedes Lewis DEF: Buffalo K: Rian Lindell
true you mock was built around the under the radar guys who will all produce but won't put up the dominant fantasy numbers week in and week out.... so overall cookiemonster you've got a great draft.. sometimes it's the teams without the superstars everywhere that win it all If thats the only thing the Pats have taught us in the past few years...
My draft, round by round: I had the 8th/3rd pick. (8th in odd rounds, 3rd in even) Round - Pick - Player
I had the 9th pick in a 12 team draft, how do u think i did? I picked up derrick mason real late b/c I feel his chemistry with McNair will bring him back 2 pro bowl level http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/clubhouse?leagueId=59119&teamId=4&seasonId=2006
You picked Fitzgerald way high and I think that screwed you in the long run. I think your team s average. Fitz is probably going around the 20th pick a.k.a. out of your reach, so i feel you would have been better served getting a dominant RB instead, someone like Caddy or Brown or Jordan must have been available.
Too many of those players have some NE patriot in them, though I like it. You're sound in every location with the only questionable being TE, but Cooley usually comes up big. Good luck with your season
Same league, I was unable to attend the draft, so I pre-ranked my players. QB - Ben Roethlisberger QB - Jake Plummer WR - Chad Johnson WR - Anquan Boldin WR - Javon Walker RB - Tiki Barber RB - Willis McGahee TE - Tony Gonzalez W/R - Deion Branch Bench TE - Vernon Davis RB - Laurence Maroney WR - Issac Bruce RB - Cedric Benson QB - Josh McCown K - Mike Vanderjagt BN - David Akers DEF - Washington DEF - Atlanta Code: Future In The Making 1. (7) T. Barber 2. (14) C. Johnson 3. (27) A. Boldin 4. (34) W. McGahee 5. (47) T. Gonzalez 6. (54) J. Walker 7. (67) D. Branch 8. (74) B. Roethlisberger 9. (87) J. Plummer 10. (94) M. Vanderjagt 11. (107) Atlanta 12. (114) Washington 13. (127) V. Davis 14. (134) L. Maroney 15. (147) I. Bruce 16. (154) D. Akers 17. (167) C. Benson 18. (174) J. McCown
Alot of risks on that team. Thomas Jones, Joey Galloway (benifitted from an injured Clayton, will not produce the same), most all your bench players aren't really season starting contributors but can make a fantasy impace if the right injuries occur. I worry about your wr despite the fact you reached for Fitz. Now you gotta worry about Thomas Jones holding it down for the whole season. Summary:A little too much risk to my liking, but the balance of fantasy usually always shifts away from who looks like he has the best team b/c of injuries and breakout players.....just hope you get lucky.
And you say you weren't even there huh lol. Great draft, although you'd better be right that one of your bench rb's breakout this year....also a little risk in having jake the snake and javon walker, but overall Your starters are a beast for the time being.
Also in that draft, and I also missed it. I did pre-set the top 50 players though, ranking WRs pretty damn high because I'm a fan of drafting top WRs and QBs and then grabbing a few low tier starting runners. Unfortunately, my QBs suck but atleast I got 2 RBs that should start all 16 games. QB Bulger QB Warner WR Holt WR Owens WR Wayne RB Tomlinson RB Droughns TE McMichael W/R Driver K Feely DEF Seattle BN Martin BN Brown BN Bennett BN Clark BN Kitna BN Longwell BN New England (who I plan on dropping)
Quarterbacks are decent IMO, Warner could have a great year since defenses will have to be honest with the new run game and he'll be throwing to the best WR set in fantasy footbal. Bulger is consistantly decent, however I dont see him being a top 5 quarterback.
