Postby htmt519 » Sun Aug 29, 2010 10:36 pm

Standard rules except:
* 3 starting WR's with no flex
* 25 passing yards per point instead of 50 (which hopefully explains using my #1 pick on Rodgers).

1. (1) Aaron Rodgers
2. (20) Pierre Thomas
3. (21) Cedric Benson
4. (40) Hakeem Nicks
5. (41) Hines Ward
6. (60) Terrell Owens
7. (61) Ronnie Brown
8. (80) Ahmad Bradshaw
9. (81) Austin Collie
10. (100) Matt Ryan
11. (101) Miami DEF/ST
12. (120) Chris Chambers
13. (121) Michael Bush
14. (140) Dustin Keller
15. (141) Sebastian Janikowski

While you skipped out on a rb you did get one of the stud QB'sin a league where QB's are really over powered. I personally IF I WAS forced to take a QB #1 Which i probably wouldnt, i Woulda took Brees. I just would just rather have a stud RB and a decent #2 then 2 legit #2's. I also felt like you may have weighted to long to take your WRs. But overall your team is decent and might make a run for the playoffs. Was this a 10 team league?

Yup, 10 team league. I agree I probably could have gone for an RB with my #1 and then a decent QB with my #2. Other than that I'm pretty happy.

Though you have a descent team, I think taking Rogers so early left you chasing the board for the rest of the draft. If this is a 10 team, I think both of those RBs are borderline #2/Flex positions guys. All of the WRs have questions marks as well.

If QB touchdowns are worth 4 pts, I would shop Rogers. Even if you downgraded to a guy like Rivers, you would only be loosing about 3 points a game (based on projections). To me, that's not a whole lot. I think it would benefit you much more to have a #1 RB on your roster, than a stud QB. Down the stretch, you're going to need a RB you know you can atleast get 10 points from. You will get points from your QB, regardless of who he is. Best of luck!

IMO there is absolutely no reason why the first pick in the draft should be used on anyone other than CJ2K.

I'm not opposed to Rodgers first round (see my thread linked below), but not ahead of CJ2K, ADP, MJD, or Rice under virtually any circumstances.

This is really for 2 reasons. If you're a mid to late first round pick, when it comes back to you, you still have a good shot at a great RB. With a QB 1st pick in the draft, not only do you pass up elite stud RBs, but your next pick isn't for another 19 picks which means the top 3 WRs are also off the board and there's very slim pickens for RB1 worthy RBs.


overall I don't think this is a bad team at all but your RB situation scares me. Just being honest but everyone has their own strategy!

Help with mine?

I agree with D town. I think taking Rodgers first overall was a big mistake. You coulda had the best rb on the board then still woulda been able to grab a really good qb with your second round pick if you wanted. If the yards scoring played into your decision why not wait and pick a guy like Tom Brady? Coulda had him much later and still got big yardage numbers. I think you have to take Johnson or Peterson in that first overall slot.
