Dude has top 3 potential, just have to see how things play out.

Half a grain of salt.

McCoy must be in any top 5-6 list.

20 TD's just one year removed. If healthy, this offense, Nintendo numbers coming.

As soon as Vick gets injured bye bye McCoy.

why wouldnt you draft any of the WR on teams with the best QBs? im taking colston in every league i can if he drops to late 3rd/early 4th

Anyone commissioner of their work fantasy league? The guy who usually does it for our department only has been out all week. I'm tempted to just send a company wide email and see what happens. Is it hard to deal with coworkers when it comes to this? Should I make it a money league?

My main $ league is with coworkers and we've been playing for 4 years. In my league we have a Commissioner and a Co-commissioner. We haven't had any problems with the league and its still going strong. We typically have 12 or 14 teams depending who wants to play. Its only a $75 to join in. Its fun when money is involved.

I ended up finding one to join at work. 20 buy in.

My do not draft list consists of any saints and packer WR, Darren McFadden, Andre Johnson, miles Austin. I'll take a chance on some other injury prone guys but not any of them and the saints and the Packers spread it around too much.

Oh and Jermichael Finley and Mike vick

Jimmy Graham, Colston, James Jones/Cobb/Nelson are in perfect situations though. There QBs are going to throw the ball at least 50 times per game. Just on targets alone that's very hard to pass up regardless of them spreading it around.

And I also expect Dre, Run DMC, and Miles to be healthy for the majority of the season.

I'll give you Finley and Vick though

IDK everyone always says this, but I'd rather have the A.J. Green type guy who I know is going to get the targets no matter what than one of those guys. You dont know who Rodgers/Brees is gonna throw it too he has so many options and its not like you can stop WRs in the NFL anymore. 

 

[the blackhand]

difference is on one team you have dalton and the others you have brees and rodgers. if green was on the packers or saints.....OMG

 

[fraij da 5 11]

Changed my team name to "Trrential Downpour" (obviously I have T Rich)

Dun good or dun goofed?

well we would all want to have AJ green but there are only so many good WR's...

my first time playing PPR and I have my draft at my buddies place tomorrow night. any specific players i should target who's more valuable in a PPR setting? Is 2nd round too high for a guy like reggie bush and sproles?

 

[maldonado]

Do you like Coby Fleener or Rob Housler better at the starting TE position? I have both and am considering dropping one to pick up another rb. Standard league.

The real question is who is the RB?

You could probably get both of those guys in the 3rd, maybe even 4th. But I see no harm in taking them in the 2nd. Sproles is always a PPR beast and I really like Reggie this year. I'm hoping to have either or both of them in my leagues.

 

[jonbx5]

Any open leagues? thinking about starting one up

 

[jordan2o1]

Rate my team please.

10 team, 6 point TD's, non PPR, 3rd pick.

QB: Brady, Big Ben

RB: Doug Martin, Montee Ball, Eddie Lacy, Ballard, Vereen, Benard Pierce

WR: AJ, Dez, Cecil, Emmanuel Sanders

TE: Gronk, Owen Daniels

D/ST: 9ers

K: Phil Dawson

If Gronk is Gronk, you're solid. Brady, Martin, AJ and Dez are elite, if you get work outta Gronk rather than a #2 RB, you'll do fine. And if Ball, Lacy, or Ballard work out, you're really set.

I took Gronk in the 7th. I just think it was wayyyyy too much to pass up. Cause even Gronk at 50% is better than any TE this year not names Jimmy, Jason, or Tony. I'm a little skeptical about my RB's, but like you said, if Gronk is Gronk, then that'll even out the points I don't get from RB2

i think you did great. your never going to not have a weakness on a team but to get martin with number three pick and to get aj and dez you did fine. cecil will do fine as wr3 and waiver wire for wr depth is not that hard. i think your fine.

with my team in mind, would you do 

1) Frank Gore and Mike wallace for dez

or

2) Frank Gore and Victor Cruz for Dez and throw in

or

3) Stay put 

 

[skip2myloon]

Anyone have any open spots available?

I like Dez alot. But both those are at least tempting.

Brady
Martin
Gore
AJ
Cruz
Gronk

That's damn nice. And you have decent #3's at both RB and WR as well as a 9ers D that should be a decent fantasy squad. I think I'd make that deal, and that's coming from a Dez fan. Gore/Cruz is worth the while.

Frank Gore will have his touches slashed and maybe bye end season behind LeMichael James as no 2.

Stay put.

so you're saying only do the gore and cruz trade?

 

[CP1708]

I'd prefer Cruz over Wallace, yes.

 

[the blackhand]

Stay put or throw out there a gronk and vereen for cruz and pick up another te.  i dont worry bout te that much.
