First off, it's a 16 team league, and I was drafting #7 overall. {Snake draft}.... Round 1 - RB S. Jackson STL Round 2 - RB C. Williams TB / Still can't believe he fell to me, but I was very happy to grab him as my #2 RB.... Round 3 - WR D. Jackson SEA Round 4 - WR J. Galloway TB Round 5 - QB J. Delhomme CAR Round 6 - WR K. Johnson CAR Round 7 - DEF CAROLINA Round 8 - PK M. Vanderjagt DAL Round 9 - RB TJ Duckett / Had to get a back-up RB sooner or later, I waited, and Duckett was about all that was left. Not sure what he'll do for the Skinz,{just traded} but if he gets the goal line work for Portis[shoulder}, he could post decent numbers. We'll see.... Round 10 - QB B. Johnson MIN / As a back-up, he's very consistant. I like him behind the Vikes OL too. Not flashy, but like I said consistant... Round 11 - TE C. Cooley WAS / I really like this kid, especially in A. Saunders offense{ex-KC OC}. He will serve as depth mostly, but could start on the right occasion... Round 12 - DEF SAN DIEGO / Back up D.... Round 13 - PK J. Reed PIT / Back-up.... Weekly Starters ============= QB - J. Delhomme RB - S. Jackson RB - C. Williams WR - D. Jackson WR - J. Galloway WR - K. Johnson PK - M. Vanderjagt DEF - Carolina Panthers Opinions???....
That's great for a 16 team league. I see you went Panther happy, but there's nothing wrong with that at all. One thing you did very wrong though was that you picked a Kicker ahead of your #3 RB. Jeff Reed works well, but now you're stuck with TJ Duckett.
We have to draft 2 PK's. One starter / one reserve for the bye week.... The reason I took a PK in the 8th round, was because I wanted to fill out my starting roster before adding reserves. He was the last player I needed to fill my weekly starting roster.... I probably could have waited, drafted a better reserve RB in his place{Vanderjagt}, but looking at what was available at RB, I chose not to. Like I said, I wanted to round out my starting unit before grabbing reserves.... Thanks for the opinions guys, I appreciate your input.....
I think Duckett will get most, if not all of the goal line carries in Washington now that Portis has a bum shoulder. He could even end up starting if Portis experiences any setbacks during the regular season{longshot, but you never klnow}. We'll see what becomes of the Duckett selection, but the Skinz went and got him for a reason, and I have a feeling Portis isn't going to last.... Honestly, as a two game filler at RB{Duckett}, I'm not all that worried about it screwing up my overall season. My starters are great in my opinion, and as long as they stay healthy, I should be able to hold my own with anyone on a weekly basis.... Thanks for the feedback...
very nice until the early defense and kicker. Still, your starters are going to be pretty nice. Definately see about getting some help at wr, Darrell Jackson is about as fragile as Chad P
Well that was your main mistake. I DEFINITELY would've picked up Backup WRs & RBs WAY before a kicker. (I don't draft a b/up kicker, just pick one up for the bye week) That being said, that's not a bad team. I don't know how you got Cadillac when you did No starting TE? otherwise, I don't know how you got Cooley ion the 11th rd. Not Bad, esp for a league that big.
I think that is an excellent team for a 16 team league. You really are lucky that Caddilac fell to you, you should have a leg up on almost any other team when it comes to RB, but then again, your recievers are a bit weak, but not bad by any means. And Delholmme is a guy I think is very underrated, very solid, and pretty consistent, you know what your getting week in and week out with him.
you must be playing with a bunch of retards if you got Jackson and Williams in a 16 team league. If your playing for money your taking the crown. You haaaaaaaaave to be in a league with 6th graders or somethin tho...shit.
And you don't think I was shocked that Williams fell into my lap in 2nd round?!?! Trust me, waiting for that pick to come, I could hardly keep from losing it I was so excited.... I can't explain the way drafts go, sometimes things like this happen when guys start taking WR's in a run. Needless to say, I feel very lucky to have two RB's like Jackson / Williams. They should make a great combo...
