Keeper suggestions - Page 2

**The Bad Guy** · 08-09-2011, 06:55 PM

I have to pick a keeper from this group.

My 3 options are:

McFadden, Miles Austin, Tony Romo.

It's a PPR and not a lot of QBs are being kept.

I'm leaning Miles, what say you?

So, my main decision right now is if I want to keep Bradford or Peyton. Peyton just had neck surgery. He's on the PUP, but I'm sure he'll start the season. Wouldn't mind seeing him throw a little before then, though. I don't draft until the 28th.

I'd keep Manning and A. Johnson. Manning will be fine. And then go RB with your 1st pick.

Bradshaw >>>>> Felix Jones.

Jones is slow as hell, and hasn't shown consistency or big game ability like a top RB needs to.

**The Franchise** · 08-16-2011, 02:05 PM

Plus Jones isn't going to get more than 12-14 carries.

Roster below at end of year 2010.

We are keeping three, and I was thinking Peyton, MJD, and Nicks. But I also hate losing Jackson. We start the fomat seen below, so RBs and WRs make up 5 of the 9 spots starting.

New to keeper leagues, any suggestions would be appreaciated.

Standard Scoring.

STARTERS
KEEP SLOT PLAYER, TEAM POS
QB Peyton Manning, Ind QB Q
RB Maurice Jones-Drew, Jac RB P
RB Jonathan Stewart, Car RB Q
RB/WR Malcom Floyd, SD WR
WR Wes Welker, NE WR
WR DeSean Jackson, Phi WR
TE Kellen Winslow, TB TE
D/ST Ravens D/ST D/ST

BENCH
KEEP SLOT PLAYER, TEAM POS
Bench Ryan Mathews, SD RB P
Bench Hakeem Nicks, NYG WR
Bench Sam Bradford, StL QB

Peyton, MJD, and Nicks.

Where do you pick at in the first round?

Not sure, it has a damn auto-draft. I'll have to rank all the players really well and think on my position selection order settings. I'll probably keep RB and WR in the first few rounds to make sure and nab any of the better players that people have to drop. Curious how it will look once the draft goes down.

Auto-draft???

Drafts are the most fun thing about Fantasy Leagues. It's where your championships are won.

Yeah, it is a league my cousin in the navy started, and the members are all over the world at a given time so they always do auto-draft. I actually typically end up with good teams because if you set up the order wisely, the people that don't end up drafting badly by picking up people that they wouldn't have otherwise.

Take all the RB's... Be a real dickhead.

Keep in mind:

I have the first pick of the draft.

Scoring is fairly typical. 6 points for receiving, rushing, and passing TD's. That doubles if a receiver rushes or a rusher receives. 1 point for every 25 yds passing. 1 point for every 10 yards receiving or rushing. Extra points for longer FG's. Etc, etc, etc....

Manning, Peyton QB IND
Bradshaw, Ahmad RB NYG
Jackson, Fred RB BUF
Jones, Felix RB DAL
Johnson, Andre WR HOU
Moore, Lance WR NO
Gonzalez, Tony TE ATL
Succop, Ryan K KC
Ravens DST

Bradford, Sam QB STL
Gradkowski, Bruce QB CIN
Stewart, Jonathan RB CAR
Smith, Steve WR CAR
Thomas, Mike WR JAC
McCluster, Dexter WR KC
Dreessen, Joel TE HOU
Reed, Jeff K SEA
Colts DST

Just found out that Brady will likely be available. Does this change anything knowing I have the first pick? Also, Dallas' rookie RB is injured, right? Felix Jones keep looking better to me.

**The Franchise** · 08-19-2011, 04:45 PM

I'd have to know who everyone else is keeping.

Went through, and it appears that the following QB's may be available:

Matt Ryan
Flacco
Tebow
Sanchez
Manning (both, if I don't keep Peyton)
Bradford
Rothlisberger

Not sure about other positions right now. We don't find out who's being kept until after everyone turns them in morning of draft.

**luv** · 08-24-2011, 08:53 AM

I am keeping Andre Johnson, and it looks like also Ahmad Bradshaw.

Okay. Andre Johnson and.....

Ahmad Bradshaw,
Felix Jones, or
Fred Jackson (I don't think the Bills will have much of a passing game)
