My idea for our draft order for our dynasty league was:
Similar to ping pong. You write a number on the bottom of each cup (1-12) and fill it up with dark beer or liquor. Each player gets one ping pong ball and shoots it. After everyone has made a ball everyone chugs their drink which then reveals their pick. However, it is more of a luck thing rather than any sort of skill. Out of owners would designate people at the draft to shoot for them. |

Just had my first draft tonight. Keeper league. I kept Megatron in first round. IDP.
My team: Stafford, Bradford Ridley, Matthews, Richardson, Ballard Megatron, Bryant, White, Shorts, Givens, Edelman Olsen Acquiring a K through FA Carlos Dunlap Acquiring a second DL via FA Bowman, Timmons, Donald Butler, Brad Jones Janoris Jenkins mark Barron. MY WRs are sick!! We start 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3WRs, 1 TE, 2 DL, 3 LB, 1 S, 1 CB, 1 K. Thoughts? |

Okay, so this may sound a bit childish, but.. we determine draft order by placing the draft picks into manilla envelops, laying it out at a local pub, and then choosing. We choose in reverse order of the winners from the year before, so the overall winner picks last (well, gets the last standing envelop).
The only mildly interesting part is that the draft picks are numbers on pages from varying porn magazines. And the quality of the image is directly related to the quality of the pick. So #1 is pretty nice looking, but pick #13 is as hideous as can be found. :: shrug ::

RB's... meh... I'm not high on Ridley and I am positively low on Matthews. But, with Richardson as well, you should get respectable play out of them. I think they will both be low RB1, so that sort of evens out a bit I guess. And I could clearly be wrong about Ridley. I like Stafford to have another huge year, like he did a couple years ago. Can't comment on the IDP. Good team for a 3WR playing league

i did a yahoo mock draft, 12 people and I had pick #2 (which kinda sucks):
1. C.J. Spiller (Buf - RB) 2. Aaron Rodgers (GB - QB) 3. Reggie Bush (Det - RB) 4. Darren Sproles (NO - RB) 5. Antonio Brown (Pit - WR) 6. Ryan Mathews (SD - RB) 7. Mike Williams (TB - WR) 8. T.Y. Hilton (Ind - WR) 9. DeAndre Hopkins (Hou - WR) 10. Bryce Brown (Phi - RB) 11. Jared Cook (StL - TE) 12. Ryan Broyles (Det - WR) 13. Johnathan Franklin (GB - RB) 14. Tennessee (Ten - DEF) 15. Lawrence Tynes (TB - K) it's solid...my initial plan was 3 straight RBs no matter what, but i still have a hard time passing on QBs... i could have taken chris johnson in the 2nd, and then instead of Sproles in the 5th had a QB from Ryan, Kaepernick, Newton, RGIII probably reached on hopkins, but it was mostly sorting trash at that point and i'm torn between charles/spiller for my first rb

I'm thinking Charles will be there when I draft sixth in my league (don't ask.. everyone drafts QBs like crazy because we can start two and people haven't adapted since we dropped the passing points down to 4 from 6). I know it's a BIT of a homer pick, but I really hope it makes sense for me to get him at 6. One reason I like him is because I think Kniles is the clear backup. I like to pick high Rb's that you can legitimately handcuff.

Okay, for those of you with no life please critique my first dynasty draft.
I picked 5/12. We start: 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3WRs, 1 TE, 1 K, 2 DL, 3LBS, 1 S, 1 C. QBs - Ryan, Rivers RBs - Charles, David Wilson, LeShoure, Richardson, 'quiz Rodgers, Ballard WRs - Demariyus Thomas, A. Brown, V. Brown, Givens, DeAndre Hopkins, DJax, Tate TEs - Witten, Myers K - Janikowski DL - Datone Jones, Muhammed Wilkerson LB - Bostic, Bowman, Houston, Clay Matthews, Sio Moore, Alec Ogletree, Walden CB - Shields S - Earl Thomas, Kenny Vaccaro. Man, this was tough. A lot of young guys -- especially on the defensive end. Overall, I'm pretty happy with my squad. WR 2/3 could potentially be an issue. Hoping Thomas, DJax, and a combination of Hopkins/Brown/Brown could do the job. |

it's funny, i've done some mocks to try out different strategies (last year was my first year, and I reached for everyone) and it is so hard to commit to 3 rbs when QBs and WRs are flying off the boards, but I like the results there's about 10 QBs with a few points of each other, it seems, and a couple are always there in 8-9th round anyone think Alex Smith could put up decent ff #s in a pinch?

I've done a bunch of mock drafts on fantasyfootballcalculator and Spiller never goes that high. I'd much rather have Foster or Charles at the #2 spot this year. |
