My Draft (many lol's to be had at my expense)

[Shogun]

EAT IT!

http://i54.tinypic.com/33p8yv4.jpg

14 teams. Feels good man.

[milkman]

Homer much?

[Shogun]

Homer much?

Touche.

[Hootie]

well I like two picks (Rice, Romo)...

I honestly mean what I'm about to say...

and I feel like a dick for it...

but that is honestly...the worst...team I have ever seen.

Ever.

Literally...

Ever.

Holy
Shit.

[Hootie]

The team has no freaking upside...

Zilch.

At best (with luck)...4 wins.

I realize it's a 14 team league, too...

That team wouldn't be decent for a 20 team league.

[Shogun]

At least I am the best at being the worst. That's a positive to take from that response. THANKS!

And thats basically how it went.

[Hootie]

Here are my teams:

(all 2 QB, all QB heavy leagues)

They are all amazing:

Uh what kind of a league are you in where Romo had over 800 points last year? WTF?

Next time you panic...just use some of these:

they are cheat sheets for people who don't excessively prepare like me

[Shogun]

Im a big fan of the 1st 12 man draft. Good job on that.

Haha, yeah I didn't use a cheat sheet at all. This is my fun draft for my website and I have 2 tomorrow that I will actually be Using a cheat sheet and have lists for what I want. This draft is so unorthodox that it is off the charts how retarded it would be if I win > 6.

[Shogun]

If you want to hear some real shit, there was somebody in the league that chose Jay fucking Cutler in the 2nd round.

....glad you said it, I was about to. The last team is good, but it better be with only 8 teams. LMAOLMAO

i have 4 fantasy teams, and i didn't pick a single chief on any of them...

good luck on your bye week...

[KCUnited]

Please tell me you named your team The Accused Bar Scene.

[Skyy God]

After the 1st 2 rounds, a drunk monkey could have made better picks. Let me guess, DBowe in the 3rd?

[sedated]

Just an awful, awful team. But hey, its all for fun.

[The Bad Guy]

Those 12-teamers are pretty awful. Receiver depth is laughable and having Pierre Thomas as your #1 with those WRs is a joke.

[Amnorix]

Dude, did you nto see that one of them has Peyton Manning on them?! PEYTON MANNING!! PEYTON FRICKIN' MANNING!!!

He's so unbelievably orgasmically awesome he's going to make all his other teams awesome even though he's not technically on them just by association.

Peyton Manning.... Wow.........

[Hootie]

Those 12-teamers are pretty awful. Receiver depth is laughable and having Pierre Thomas as your #1 with those WRs is a joke.

every single league, like I said, is a QB heavy league...and a PPR (except for the non-ESPN one...which is so QB heavy it's laughable)...

This is the typical scoring for the three ESPN leagues.

6 points for any TD (passing/rushing/receiving)
3 points for TD's over 40
3 points for TD's over 50

and you can start TWO QB's...

so you want to draft two QB's...and very high.

RBs and WRs are second tier...

so the best strategy is to combo up with a QB and get RB's with big play/sleeper potential.

Having consistency is huge...and QB's are the biggest scorers in my leagues...

The myfantasyleague.com league has even stranger scoring...

you don't get any points for yardage until you trigger exceed 75 yards rushing/receiving (5 points) and then 2 points for every 25 after that...

and 250 yards passing (2 points for every 50 after that)...

TD's are 6 (0-9) 9 (10-39) and 12 (40+)...

and if a QB runs for a TD, everything doubles (same with a WR rushing for a TD or a RB receiving for a TD)..

very obscure scoring and again...every year 20 of the top 25 scorers are QBs...

so in that draft I took Peyton, then McNabb...AND THEN Roethlisberger (trade bait)...

one year a team was so desperate for a QB...I traded Garrard and Hines Ward for LDT...and then LDT scored 31 TDs and I had Brees/LDT and LJ and outscored everyone in that league by 300+ points...

Roethlisberger (or McNabb) will be such as asset around week 4 or 5...it will be sick.

(but again, the problem with posting teams in threads are everyone just assumes to judge a team by standard scoring...and that's just not how things work anymore...I don't get into non 2 QB leagues because it devalues the QB position...)

[Hootie]

Those 12-teamers are pretty awful. Receiver depth is laughable and having Pierre Thomas as your #1 with those WRs is a joke.

FFL is the sport to reach for guys if you think they'll win you leagues...

I hate Cedric Benson...if he fell to me in the 15th round...I wouldn't take him...

I take guys who I think will win me leagues.

This year...I think Jermichael Finley will win me leagues...I took him before Dallas Clark.

This year...I think TE's are basically as valuable as WR's and many of them will put up WR numbers...in a team where I can start two QB's and two TE's...and the TE position gets points based off of 50 yards rather than 75...my first 5 picks were Manning/McNabb/Roethlisberger/D. Clark/and J. Finley...

This year...I think Jahvid Best has a chance to be like Chris Johnson two years ago.

This year...I like McFadden...at least one more time.

I think Mike Williams (TB) is the real deal...

and I think T.O. has more value than Chad Ochocinco.

Big on Finley also (he was my 5th rounder in both a 10-team and 12-team draft).

McFadden seems like an Al Davis pick, so he'll be given every opportunity to win the job from an injured Bush.

[Hootie]

I'm with you on everything except McFadden.

I didn't like him until M. Bush went down with an injury...now it's him and Michael Bennett...

so if there is ever a time he breaks out...

he has a month.

We'll see I don't like him like I did last year....when I was sure he was going to be the real deal.

[ChiefaRoo]

Congratulations your team will come perform in the bottom 20th percentile of your league. Thomas Jones, D Bowe? Fookin ROMO????

[Hootie]

Personally...

I used to be totally against anything but the most standard FFL leagues out there...

Now...

I don't think I'd ever want to play in a league where you can't start two QB's...

I don't like leagues where you can only start 1 QB...it totally devalues the position...it means everyone has at least one good QB...usually one great QB...so it's like the position is more like a kicker than a RB, or a WR...and it turns into who gets Chris Johnson...and who gets that Jamaal Charles...

and QB's don't matter because when you hit your BYE you can always just go get Kyle Orton on waivers...

Dumb, dumb, dumb I think...why devalue a position like that?

[Skyy God]

Any thoughts on the Housh to Bal signing? I have Mason and, since they're basically the same receiver, I would think it would crater Mase's value.

Am thinking of dropping him for an upside guy (Massaquoi, Aroshamado, or the other Mike Williams). My other WRs are gold (AJ, Fitzy, Bowe, Maclin) in a start 3 max league.

See, I disgaree with this.

There's about 4 studs at the position and then 3 guys who are good, and then a whole bunch of guys lumped together.

You have Rodgers, Manning, Brady, Brees as studs

Romo, Schaub, Rivers as very good players

Then Flacco, Ryan, Cutler as the next tier.

There's a substancial drop off from Tier 2-3.

[Hootie]

hey...

last year was my worst profitable year in FFL history...

I won won league and ended up losing money...I was wrong about several things.

The year before it was vice versa...I nailed every sleeper and won just about every league.

This year I...

DO NOT LIKE FLACCO, AND I DO NOT LIKE THOSE RECEIVERS.

At all.

I think the Ravens and the Jets are vastly overrated.

but you can ALWAYS play matchups with lower tiers...

and a lot of the times you'll come out on top...

in a 12 team league where everyone wants to start 2 QB's...

it makes things more competitive...

other than standard leagues where 25 RB's go in the first 32 picks

When guys throw for 18 touchdowns in the lower tier, it's difficult to play the matchups.

I always put a priority on drafting stud QBs early. The fantasy landscape has changed.

[kaplin42]

Alright, there are some obvious minds of FFL here, and I need help, desperately.

Just joined an office league, 6 teams.

QB
RB
RB
RB / WR
WR
WR
TE
D/ST
K

+ 7 Bench Slots.

Looks like a standard ESPN league setup for scorring.

Live snaking draft today in 2.5 hours.

Any suggestions, as I have never done a live draft. What position do I go after first? RB? QB? Any sleepers out there that I can swipe that others might now be really thinking of?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

not sure if this link will work for you since you're not in the league, but look at the way the scoring is set up...

and the league has one OP where you can start a RB/WR/TE/or QB...

http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/leaguesetup/settings?leagueId=296578

That's really fun scoring, and really even scoring...where all positions (other than DEF/K) are basically set to be even.

The 12-team with Rodgers at QB is pretty good, but the rest? I don't see anything special really - did you trade away picks in Rounds 2 and 3? :LOL:

[Mile High Mania]

I dunno man, Flacco is a 60% and over passer in each of his first two seasons with really nothing stellar/diverse in the passing game. It's been quite conservative, relying on a great rushing attack and a very nice defense.

This year, both the rushing attack and the defense should be as good or better than they were in 2009.

And now, Flacco sees Mason as his #3 WR option, not his #1 WR option. Boldin and TJ are going to set that offense up for great things and with Rice/McGahee... you have stellar balance.

In 2009, Flacco completed 63% of his passes for 3,600 yards / 21 TDs / 12 INTs... those numbers should increase with those 2 receivers. Heap goes from being one of the top 2 weapons to your 3rd or 4th... that's just nasty and it should help his production.

I think the Ravens are sitting very pretty right now.

[ct]

Mile High,

Do not question the amazing ff stardom that is The Meat Dragon!

That is all, good day...

[sedated]

I always put a priority on drafting stud QBs early. The fantasy landscape has changed.

I wonder how quickly this is changing (to value QBs more). In one league, I was ripped constantly until the end of the draft for picking Rodgers 4th overall; the 2nd QB taken didn’t go until # 11. In my other league, he went 2nd overall, and Brees went 4th. Ironically, the first league is weighted more towards QBs than the second.

[ChiefaRoo]

His team is pretty bad, but :spock: 4400 yards and 26 TD's and you pick Romo to bash?

I'm of the opinion that he's peaked. Also, Miles Austin will not have the year he had last year.

it's a 6 man league thats basically a depatment league. Just for something to do and shoot the shit over.

I don't have the desire to invest so much energy into a non cream puff league.

[Hootie]

I gotcha...

Just laughing because people will bash a 12 man team that has two extra starting positions including 1 extra QB...

but then applaud a team that clearly was from a 6 or 8 man league...with standard scoring and positions...

Just shows how ignorant people are when judging fantasy teams...and why I usually stay out of the "rate my team" threads for that very reason...was just bored last night.

I make money.

Come on man...man up.

[Hootie]

if you idiots are going to look at the teams, go look at the scoring settings before you start assuming leagues are standard scoring...

we don't do 4 points for QB TD's...we do 6...

we do PPR...

we start two QB's...

it's not the same as standard cream puff FFL leagues...

If anyone wants to join one of my leagues...I'll gladly start one more money league because clearly none of you grasp the strategies of 2 QB PPR deep roster leagues.

What are the bonuses in your league for yards?

[Hootie]

5 points for 100...5 points for 200 (receiving and rushing)

6 points for rushing TD's
8 points for receiving TD's

3 points for TD's over 40
3 more points for TD's over 50

0.1 for every receiving yard
0.5 for every 5 rushing yards

2 points for every 10 carries

1 point per reception

[Buck]

Damn, that's a high scoring league.

[Hootie]

Damn, that's a high scoring league.

to be honest with you...

I think my league scoring should be standard...

and I think every FFL league should be a 2 QB league...or at least have the option of starting 2 QB's...

1 QB leagues are BUSH LEAGUE.
