First pick in a 12 teamer, how'd I do? WHIR

Postby sorgi2evans » Sun Aug 08, 2010 12:44 pm

standard settings with .5 PPR and a RB/WR flex

QB- Flacco/McNabb/Favre (start 1)

RB- Chris Johnson, Stewart , Forte, Ricky Williams, Tate, Thomas Jones

WR- Austin, Marshall, Nicks, Floyd, Aromashodu, Jacoby Jones

TE- Clark

Didn't bother to draft a kicker or defense so barring a trade, I'll have to drop both Joneses before week 1. I actually drew the 7th pick but the guy with the 1st pick traded with me straight up with the plan of picking Rodgers, who was subsequently picked 6th (keep in mind almost everyone in the league is a packer fan). I think I'm strong at RB, WR and TE and still salvaged a QB situation where I should be able to play a decent matchup each week. If Favre comes back and plays close to how he did last year, I could run away with the league. Here are how my first few picks went:

1. Johnson
24. Austin
25. Marshall
48. Stewart
49. Clark
72. Nicks
73. Forte

In hindsight I see that I was pretty lucky to get the QB situation that I did considering I didnt take any til like the the 96th pick.

I really like this team and i cant believe how low you got Dallas Clark either.

Not much wrong i see with this you will just have to see how Forte fairs in the Martz system this year and with Chester breathing down his neck.

I would also think about dropping Thomas Jones first before dumping him off because i see two other droppable players right now.


Good luck!

help me please

What makes this team even better than most is Clark. Having him IMO is like having another WR1/2 to go along with Austin and Marshall. Great squad and I like the QBBC with Flacco/McNabb.

Very solid team. Kind of uncommon to see three QBs in a standard league, but I have to say I love it. If/when Favre comes back, you're in awesome shape, and have some trade bait to play with. If he stays retired, Flacco and McNabb is still a damn good QBBC.

Again, pretty solid all around. Amazed at Clark falling that far.

I'm not as hot on your QB's. I don't think Favre is coming back and even if he does he will be behind in conditioning. I think McNabb will be a bust in Washington. I do like Flacco however and see great things for him in his 3rd season.

RB's - fantastic especially if Forte regains form. Do not drop Thomas Jones, I repeat do not drop Thomas Jones.

WR's - not bad but not great either.

TE - how can you argue against a guy who's the favorite receiving target of Peyton Manning.

This team looks solid:

Good RBs, #2 and on is a little weak though so you may want to work your way into a legitimate starter for a #2 RB... Stewart will be good but will be sharing a lot of the work with DeAngelo. You can probably move Favre/McNabb a couple weeks into the season for a RB if you pair one of them with Stewart or another RB.

TE, WR, QB are all solid

Good draft

Really strong team. I wouldn't worry too much about your QBs's. I think Flacco will do well, and you'll always have McNabb and Favre just in case.... Out of the 3, you'd expect at least one of them to come through.
