Money League PPR - Pick #5 - How Did I Do?

Postby liono123 » Thu Sep 09, 2010 1:29 am

Just completed our money league snake draft. I drafted with the fifth pick, and I feel like I did OK, though I waited on a QB. All the top QBs went in rounds 1-3. Flacco went in the 4th.

We start QB, RB, K, DST, and 4 flex players, RB/WR/TE, with a max of 3 starting RB. I love to start 3RB and 2WR/TE, but you can go 1RB and 4 WR/TE, which works for some as this is PPR.

Here's my team, week 1 starters italicized:

QB: Stafford, Matt Ryan
RB: Gore, Arian Foster, Ricky Williams, Knowshon Moreno, Bernard Scott, Slaton, Dixon
WR: Calvin Johnson, Hakeem Nicks, Johnny Knox, Devin Hester
TE: JerMicheal Finley
K: Jeff Reed
DST: 49ers

Will those QBs be okay in a platoon where I play the match ups, or do I have to work a trade? Since the QBs all went very early, any trade I offer would have to be very much in their favor.

I love my depth at RB and WR. But will I have to trade a couple solid players to patch up my QB? I don't even see anyone out there I can trade for, because no one picked up two top QBs. Closest is the guy that got Kolb and Roethisberger, or the guy that got Rivers and Favre.

What do you think?

I like Ryan and Stafford. Obviously you would prefer better, but there's upside for both of them so I wouldn't be too worried.

QB - Stafford/Ryan should be fine IMO - just play the matchups

RB - Love Gore & Foster. Ricky & Moreno provide decent depth - not crazy about ether though. Dixon & Slaton make sense, Scott at this point is a waste IMO.

WR - Love Megatron. On the fence w/ Nicks. The Bears as a whole scare me, but 1 of those 2 should pan oput in the Martz offense as long as Cutler doesn't get killed by what appears to be a terrible line.

TE - Love Finley - IMO he has a legit shot at being the best TE in FF, and he should be a monster in the redzone.

K - Startable

D - I think you have the bet D in fantasy

I think your QBs are fine too. If you're not going to get one of those top tier guys, I feel like the rest are all about even.

Thanks for help with mine.
