14 Team league...check me out and WHIR!!

Postby dpaine1988 » Sun Aug 29, 2010 4:17 pm

14 people, standard scoring, non-ppr. I had the 5th pick. QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, Flex(WR/RB), TE

QB: Cutler, Stafford
RB: Gore, Ryan Mathews, Steven Jackson, Kareem Huggins,Anthony Dixon
WR: Calvin Johnson, Micheal Crabtree, Lee Evans, Mike Williams(TB)
TE: Jason Witten
Def: Bears

*Update* - Traded DeSean Jackson and Javhid Best for Steven Jackson.


I was very RB heavy but did some trading and I think I have a pretty balanced team.

Any opinions welcome, just leave a link and I'll respond.

defintely a strong team, particularly in a 14 teamer. good work. backup RB's not looking too sexy at this point, but mardesty has alot of upside, and youve cuffed gore.

im assuming you got matthews in the third round and desean in the fourth? highway robbery. then crabtree in the fifth and best in the sixth? or vice versa-either way i cant believe one of those scenarious played out in a fourteen team draft.

I took Greene in 2nd and Mathews in the 3rd. Crabtree was 4th and traded up in the 6th to grab Best.

I made a few key trades today with 2 different teams.

I Gave : Shonn Greene and Devin Hester
I Got: Wes Welker, DeSean Jackson

Then I did this

I Gave: Mike Sims-Walker, Wes Welker, John Carlson
I Got : Calvin Johnson, Jason Witten

Love your team for a 14-teamer. You have great RBs, both at the top and at the bottom. The only question mark is at QB. Perhaps down the line once your RB depth starts really producing you can package one of them with a QB to upgrade.

Very solid team for a 14 team league. Solid at all positions which in a 14 team league your usually lacking in 1 or 2. If Cutler could produce okay numbers youll be good to go ;-D

Very solid team, especially in RBs. I think Kareem Huggins is a great deep sleeper and I think Best will transition well into a good RB. Cutler is a solid pick, but I think has little potential for a break-out season. I'd definitely trade for a greater QB.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Yea I'm not sure what to do at QB yet. I want to see how it goes first, then maybe I can package him and a WR/RB for an upgrade.

yes. very good team. i've never played in a non-ppr league, so it's tough for me to look at WR's without counting receptions, but yeah, nice drafting!

Found a two good potential trade partners, one with Peyton Manning and the other with Matt Ryan.

He is interested in D-Jax or Calvin and I would package Cutler with a WR to get Manning. Any trade help would be great.

Love this team, especially in a 14 team league! great trades to solidify your weaker spots. As stated above, Cutler is the only area where there might be an issue, but the bears should be throwing early and often, hopefully he doesnt try to squeeze too many passes this year.

Great draft, better trades

EDIT:
Cutler + Djax for manning would solidify your QB, but it weakens your WR2 position.
