OT: Rate my fantasy football team!!

[seabass45]

My draft is September 1st and the guy picking 4th is going with Lynch I believe. So if nothing crazy happens would you guys pick Forte or Lacy? I'm leaning towards Lacy right now

If the guy ahead of you bails on Lynch, go with your second choice of Forte/Lacy. I prefer Lacy. Lynch is more a late first rounder IMO.

 

[ScaredStreit]

Yup. Top 5 picks should be McCoy, Charles, AP, Forte and Lacy.

I see it McCoy/Charles/AP.....Forte......Lacy in that order. (for the record I rank AP first as I drafted him with my 1st overall pick). But all 3 of those guys could go 1st.

Just curious, when did you pick Josh Gordon? If he isn't suspended the entire season, he will be the steal of the draft.

Wow - How many teams are in your league? This has to be a 10 team league. If 12 then you're making the playoffs for sure and have to be a favorite to win.

Also count on starting R. Wilson and C. Patterson this season.

 

[And You Feel Shame]

10 team league:

QB: Aaron Rodgers
QB: Cam Newton
WR: Brandon Marshall
WR: Alshon Jeffery
WR: Andre Johnson
RB: Arian Foster
RB: Andre Ellington
TE: Dennis Pitts
K: Justin Tucker
DEF: Arizona

B: Ryan Tannehill
B: Rashad Jennings
B: Maurice Jones-Drew
B: Terrance Williams
B: Anquan Boldin

Yeah, we fill an extra QB slot in our league...

Not bad. Don't love Olsen or Fitz this year. This is probably Fitzgerald's last year in Zona so I think they're going to make a strong effort to get Floyd and John Brown involved.

Also never understood why benches are so small. To me larger benches are for more knowledgable fantasy players. Even in 14 team leagues there are always guys to pick up, so if you only have a 15 player roster that's 36 additional guys that are FAs. Too many. By having deeper benches you reward the better drafters...Not people who pick up players AFTER they've had a good week.

Thanks for the feedback. I came in 3rd place last year (it was my sophomore fantasy football season, I'm still a puppy when it comes to NFL fantasy)...hoping to go all the way this time around!

But yea... the chronic add/droppers make me sick too. There's a couple in every pool, doesn't matter the sport.

I'm not really liking my team, I had the 11th pick and it was tough. I had to reach for a lot of players because I knew they wouldn't be there. I'm gonna have to make key pickups.

PPR league

Reminds me a bit of my team where I drafted 8th and took Jimmy. I think it's workable with what you have but prob need to strike gold on a the WW at WR or RB.

2nd year 3rd place is good. It takes a few years to really get down a good drafting strategy IMO.

I usually take a very good RB with the first pick, but Graham was there at 11 so I didn't have much of a choice.

drop jermichael finley though, he isn't even signed, and its one week before the regular season starts

[MattMartin]

I want everyone to read this and remember this because I will come back to it during the season and after.

Expected letdown season for the following players.
Lynch Getting up in age and too many carries last year.
Cameron (Cleveland) Better option with Gordon playing.
Davis (SF) 15th best TE 2 years ago 2nd last year expect around 15th again with Crabtree back and Boldin.
Stacy Toughest Division in the NFL + QB issues.
Bell (Pittsburgh) bad camp, got caught smoking weed and no O line.
Ball (Denver) Good luck banking on his good season and the rotation in Denver.
Mathews (SD) Can he ever stay healthy?
Richardson Donald Brown out performed him last year.

One time studs who will be duds
Jennings (Minnesota)
Gates L. Green is a monster and you ill know his name by seasons end
Rice Forget the suspension, Baltimore has no gone pass happy and O line worries.
Foster Bad injury, bad QB, = Bad season!
MJD See below
RUn DMC See above
Jackson (Atlanta) ST. Louis ran him into the ground.
Cruz Manning having big problems with the new Offense and last season he was horrible for 3/4 of it
Johnson (NYJ) This guy is a FFL killer over the last few seasons. Don't expect much.
Nicks Buried in Indy.
Bowe WTH happened to this guy?
Decker Jets love passing the ball....NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Secondary's will double him up all season long.



Sleepers and later round steals
Foles (has been there 5,6,7th round)
Joique Bell (best handcuff in the league)
Vereen PPR monster.
Woodhead PPR monster.
Hyde (SF) Gore is slowing dooowwwwwwnnnnnnn
Baldwin (Seattle) no 2 WR behind Harvin.
Hunter (Ten) A beast at 6"4 203 lbs and fast.
Ertz (Phi) Celek and Jackson now gone, this kid is gonna shine.
Boykin (GB) Jordy can't seem to stay healthy and we know Rodgers loves to throw the rock to everyone.
James Jones (Oak) The #1 WR in Oakland is worth a very late round flier.

Overrated
Sanders (Den) People think he will step in for Decker, problem is that Decker was more physical and taller.
Hilton Stepped in great for Wayne last year but now with Wayne, Allen, and Nicks, good luck getting the ball.
Patterson (Min) Love the kid, hate the QB and not much help at the WR in Minny.
