No Opinions?

no flex, wr3 or rb3??

Rice and Forte are monster at RB in PPR. F Jackson is a nice complement.
VJax and Wallace aren't possession receivers so that knocks them down a notch. Nice bench options however, Britt and Collie should have good seasons, if they stay healthy. I love Jacoby Ford as a 2nd year breakout. Evans should be able to ressurect career in Balt.
QB's I'm not so sure about. Romo is great (when he plays). Newton can't pass and Garrard is on a short leash in Jax. Keep an eye on the waiver wire here.

I'd drop a WR and pick up a 4th RB, since they get injured so much. See how Evans progresses in the 1st few weeks.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to drop David Garrad soon as I can for a RB#4 and well Tony Romo will have to do that's who I targeted.

At start of Draft I had these QB's

#1 Phillip Rivers Projected Price 35 - 40
#2 Tony Romo Projected Price 25-35
#3 Josh Freeman Projected Price 10-20

Then for possible sleeper picks Sam Bradford, or Matt Stafford

Rivers went for 45, Followed by Freeman 24, Bradford 30, Staffrod, 26 So when Romo came up I went higher than I wanted to and paid 45. Would of rather had Rivers!!!!!

Another Thought on my WR, Andre Johnson went for 70, Roddy White for 65, I got what amounts to two WR in the top 10 for the price that some paid for 1 WR.

[Chaoyi Shih]

your 2 WR is definitely better than 1 Ajohnson or 1 White at cost of 65+

Seems like you league's average bidding on elite player is much higher than the leagues i know
I am in 3 auction league, 2 on Yahoo and 1 on ESPN
prices for Aaron Rodger are 37, 41, 44, and Rivers is around 25-30
in one league, i got Ajohnson at 39

all the leagues are $200 starting cap.

[wasteoide]

My League was $200 and Yes the prices are quite high for the perceived top top talent

couple of examples

QB= Mike Vick 65, Tom Brady 65, Aaron Rodgers 62
RB= Adrian Peterson 77, Ray Rice 60, Arian Foster & Chris Johson 55

I did pay 60 for Rice, but I was targeting him

[Chaoyi Shih]

i think you drafted well, get Rice for 60 when AP, vick, brady and rodger are all over 60, therefore you have an anchor player.
then split cost on getting semi-elite player like wallace, forte and Vjackson to get you a good starting team on WR and RB
only bad bid and unnecessary cost will be $45 Romo

auction timing is most important thing, and i think you did good except QB
i think this team is definitely going to play-off

PS- i am surprised that vick and brady both got higher bid than Rodger, and his foot injury wasnt even that serious.
