So I figure alot of people on NS are playing Fantasy Football.
Talk about your team, trades, ask for advice, whatever.

Whats everyone think about my team? Drafted last night and not to sure how I feel about it. I picked peyton second round which I thought was a cheap pick but kinda felt like I blew it in the RB situation. Forgot my chargers at work like a dumbass so I ended up going through two computers half charged and had to finish the draft on my phone since yahoo drafts blow through computer batteries. Went on auto pick one round ended up getting both Miami RB's which could work out great if I can trade the second string out to diversify.

You have Peyton, so you are probably gonna be fine. The Miami RBs is a decent thought, but Miller is garbage. I would try to trade him ASAP. He was the main guy last year and shit the bed. Thats why they brought in Moreno. If Morenos knee is good, he will be the every down back. Maybe you see Miller on 3rd down, but that guy sucks.

I hate fitzgerald and especially dwayne bowe. good receivers, but no one is throwing to them (especially bowe, he fucked me over last year haha).

Yea I had to auto draft one round since I lost all batteries while moving to find service on my phone. Think its a blessing and a curse though. I basically will have their best back so I can trade out whoever is worse. I think Moreno will get a lot of looks on the dolphins he had a great year last year.

Dwayne bow for me was more of a big bet. I think the dude has the potential but its just spread out so much there. Julio, roddy white, and bowe. Got fitzgerald as a cheap pick in the 3 round so I took him. But Peyton for me was a major bet. Basically gave up a better RB to get peyton numbers. Had him last year also really carried my team and got me to my poitns projects + each week.

Yea my only main concern is that he had a injury with his knee. I think thats why alot of people avoided him. And our OL sucks. As a fan I am hoping Miller goes off and does well, but I had him last year, and he regularly put up 5-6 pts per week.

Granite_StateI need help. I have a draft sept. 4. Ive never played (fantasy hockey guy) so any advice. Do i want an rb or wr firs round? When do i snag a qb or pick a defense. What should my priorities be? I wanna win cause the pool will be over 300
I like taking QB's early. Just because he touches the ball every play, so more chances to get points. But I know a lot of people take rbs early.

Yeah and if you get a consistant qb like brady youll get a steady stream of points every game. Ive also read though that people are nowing picking wr's before rb's

All depends on whos on the board and where you pick. If the top 3 RBs are gone and youve got Peyton up, take him. If they're all gone and the top QBs are too, go with some RBs.
I wouldn't take a defense till you have some solid core guys, but thats just me.

Sep 3 2014 10:32AM
illRhymes12-man league:QB- Andrew Luck
RB- Eddie Lacy
RB- Trent RIchardson
WR- AJ Green
WR- Keenan Allen
TE- Charles Clay
FLEX- Pierre Garcon
D/ST- Seahawks
K- Robbie Gould
Question- trade Richardson and Kendall Wright (who is on my bench) for alfred morris? Richardson scares me
absolutely yes.
my draft was last night. was supposed to be on yahoo at 745. half the people couldn't get in due to connectivity issues. one person, it didn't even say she was part of the league (although I have confirmation emails). long story short, we switched to espn at 825 and drafted at 10. fucking ridiculous.
anywho, I have kaepernick and wilson as my qbs, kap v dallas and wilson v greenbay. I also have percy harvin as a WR1. suggestions on QBs this week?

I'm a Cowboy fan but our D is a fucking joke right now. We have so my injuries, suspensions, or lost starters, play Colin.

Chewy.I'm a Cowboy fan but our D is a fucking joke right now. We have so my injuries, suspensions, or lost starters, play Colin.
yeah that's my plan right now. I think I'm just so excited for the season to start, I wanna have more people in tomorrow's game haha.
my team is as follows, not sure my feelings on it. first time I've actually picked RBs instead of WRs in the first few rounds (and I've averaged 3/4 out of 10 each year)
QB: colin kaepernick
RB: adrian peterson
RB: zach stacy
WR: percy harvin
WR: eric decker
Flex: rashad jennings
TE: julius thomas
D: rams
K: nick folk
BN: golden tate
BN: sammy watkins
BN: russel wilson
BN: andre williams
BN: johnny football
by the end I was pretty drunk and took a gamble with tate, watkins, and williams. I think manziel is gonna do okay, but for my last pick, fuck it

The thing about QBs is after brees/rogers/peyton the next 10 or so are all very similar, which is why I choose to wait on QBs and stack top end RBs and WRs, or even a top tier TE in the 3rd/4th if still available. In one league I got Luck in the 6th and the other I got Foles in the 8th or 9th which is real solid value.

just drafted, 2 keepers bell and thomas
feel conflicted. miller was accidental and so was kendricks (but was taking lb anyways so whatever). lots of maybes who could go either way. brown wasnt necessary, and idgaf about shit kicker nobody who doesnt exist. late rounds are garbage anyways.

get rid of some rb's man. you don't need 4 on the bench

skeletoncarlos hyde or trent richardson? I went wr heavy this year and im pretty weak at rb. Im leaning towards taking a chance on hyde, but id love another opinion
I don't even know who that mexican is. but richardson sucks mammoth balls.
JahLiamshould I start drew brees or russell wilson
not even a question, brees without a doubt. hopefully you did. for how well wilson did, he didn't break 20 points in my league.
SpinozaQUIZ.given i want:
[GB wins 7-0, Rodgers throws 6 picks and 1 85yd TD pass.]

seattle d and jordy nelson? or some gb wr
Sep 5 2014 12:28PM
Humpsget rid of some rb's man. you don't need 4 on the bench
it doesn't really matter. ideally i would have had another wr or two, however with our flex spots and huge bench it really just comes down to best available at draft time. after picking core starters i think it's better to pick a bunch of players with upside hoping one of them turns into a reliable starter (and at that point trades are possible). aside from QB/RB/WR positions the rest is pretty much pick up from free agents if a replacement is needed. i'll probably look to stash another mediocre TE and WR as the season goes on.
Sep 5 2014 3:04PM
This is my team for one league. Not really impressed with my drafting. Hope Wilson does well and Moreano can come out strong.[/QUOTE]
Take Riley out of your Flex spot and insert Kendall Wright. Guy is a 1000 + yard receiver who had those yards with FitzMagic throwing to him. He's gonna go off this year if Locker stays healthy. I'd stay away from Philly wideouts, it's gonna be similar to the saints, no one fantasy superstar, but a good game from a different contributor each time. Maclin is the only one I'd start as my WR3 or Flex if I had no other options.

Dwayne Bowe would be good if Alex Smith could throw the ball more than 5 yards down the field. DONT DO IT. I drafted Bowe these past two years, and it's like herpes, sucks and you can't get rid of it.
KravtZYea I had to auto draft one round since I lost all batteries while moving to find service on my phone. Think its a blessing and a curse though.

Had him last year also really carried my team and got me to my poitns projects + each week.
Fitzgerald is in the same boat with Bowe. You fall in love with the prospect, but he puts up too many 50 yard games that ruin your love of him. I'd pick up Michael Floyd before I picked up Fitzgerald.
theBearJewYea my only main concern is that he had a injury with his knee. I think thats why alot of people avoided him. And our OL sucks. As a fan I am hoping Miller goes off and does well, but I had him last year, and he regularly put up 5-6 pts per week.
Love Lamar Miller this year, I heard he's gonna be used as Miami's "Shady" with Bill Lazor being down there now, he's more like LeSean then Moreno is.
Chewy.I like taking QB's early. Just because he touches the ball every play, so more chances to get points. But I know a lot of people take rbs early.
You can pick up top 10 statistical QB in rounds 3 and 4, can you say the same about RBs? I picked up Matt Ryan in the 4th round of one of my money leagues and he threw for 4,500 yards with Harry Douglas as his WR1, think about that.
Granite_StateYeah and if you get a consistant qb like brady youll get a steady stream of points every game. Ive also read though that people are nowing picking wr's before rb's
I'd rather have two Hybrid RBs who can catch the ball and gain yards on the ground. Right now I have LeSean and Bush as my RB1 and RB2 with Lamar Miller as my Flex.

Agree with you on the hybrid RB but realistically any top RB will be a good catcher. Bush is so over rated. Joique Bell had a season last year and could easily split snaps if not take more. Much more of a powerhouse rb and way younger. Could see him taking goal line plays more and bush doing pass plays

Alfred Morris and Lynch suck as pass catchers. Both are top 5 RBs.
I can see him taking goal line snaps, but you could say the same about Calvin. Would you rather try to plow it in, or just throw a fade into quadruple coverage and let your superhuman WR pull it down. Because we know what Stafford wants to do.
