what the hell, Commish just blocked this trade....PPR league

I would have gotten Dre and Charles & the other team would have gotten Forte and Julian

Trade was "fishy" to him

I also felt vetoing trades should be majority vote. 10-team league, 6 to veto.

 

[champcruthik]

Yep who knows wtf was going on there. I'm just hoping Vereen gets most of the work load on any down due to Ridley's fumbling problems. And he can stay healthy. Also praying that Ryan and Jones are a magical duo or else if they fall flat my team is done

Ice was the right choice over Cutler and Romo. He has the weapons and track record. Defense may be weak, but that only encourages Smith to throw the rock.

Just finished my final draft. 10 team money league ($25 per). Had the 4th pick

QB: Rivers
RB: McCoy
RB: L. Bell
WR: AJ Green
WR: Fitzgerald
TE: J.Cameron
Flex: K. Allen
Def: Rams
K:Novak

Bench:

Gerhart
Edelman
Woodhead
Moreno
Nicks
K.Benjamin
Gates

You're in business. Gerhart and Edelman valuable for depth and bye weeks. Balanced squad.

Yea week 4 is gonna suck *** though. Green, Fitzgerald, Cameron, and Rams D are all on Bye week

Dre and Charles definitely better than Forte and Edelman though. one sided trade for sure. But it should be a majority vote not just the Commish's decision

You'll be fine with Allen, Edelman, Gerhart starting W4.

Dre and Charles definitely better than Forte and Edelman though. one sided trade for sure. But it should be a majority vote not just the Commish's decision 

I could argue the Forte side is better. He's only a notch below Charles. Edelman is a PPR machine, while Dre is regressing with an unsure QB situation.

Got an A grade by Yahoo, but predicted to finish 3rd with a 9-4 record. TE is my weakest position apparently, going to need Pitta or Eifert to ball out.

13. (145) Ben Roethlisberger (Pit - QB)
14. (16 Delanie Walker (Ten - TE)
15. (169) Dan Carpenter (Buf - K)

I like my chances, 1st week out the gate I got the 2nd place squad though. Should I start Eifert or Pitta?

I don't take Yahoo draft grades seriously. Pitta is your starter. He's going to overplay his draft slot, I guarantee it. Why? Kubiak. Has a tremendous track record, even better than Norv Turner, with Daniels and Graham.

Pitta, definitely. With Flacco's trust in him && Kubiak in town, he should replicate prime Owen Daniels' numbers this season.

 

[champcruthik]

The first-place team is vulnerable to injury at WR2. Second-place team is potentially exposed at RB2.

 

[nelson999]

This is a nice team, good job Nelson.

thanks!

 

[nelson999]

 

Yea week 4 is gonna suck *** though. Green, Fitzgerald, Cameron, and Rams D are all on Bye week

You'll be fine with Allen, Edelman, Gerhart starting W4.

Yea but i'm gonna have to find someone to drop for a replacement Defense that week

 

[champcruthik]

Yea but i'm gonna have to find someone to drop for a replacement Defense that week

I streamline D and K weekly.

 

[MVP]

Thanks for the insight guys, hopefully everything goes well. Been outta fantasy for 3 years last time I was in, got runner up in the league. Now that money is on the line, hopefully I'll be focused and remember to adjust my lineups

What's the better play for week 1

Bears D vs Buffalo
Eagles vs Jags

Both at home

 

[105950]

NT - Mixed feelings on my team, I feel it's either boom or bust.  Thoughts??  (10 Team PPR)

 

[johnnyredstorm]

I'd start Cordarelle at the Flex personally. Not big on Bell like others are.

 

[ny mavurs]

My team after Toretto's draft last night. 12 teams I had 6th overall pick


QB- Brees
RB1- Ben Tate
Rb2- Gore
Wr1- Megatron
Wr2- Fitz
TE- Vernon Davis
Flex- Brandin Cooks
K- Nick Folk
Def- New England

Bench: Watkins, Deangelo Williams, Steve Smith, Blount, James Jones, Dwayne Bowe

I really didn't wanna take a QB with my 2nd overall pick but all I heard in my head was "500 yards, 500 yards"

what the hell, Commish just blocked this trade....PPR league

This is why you have to veto the veto...makes no sense to me.

Join a league with guys you can trust and know that they won't rig it. Commish should set up the league, scoring settings, etc...but if a player wants to trade his players away because he thinks he is benefitting from that, he should be able to. I personally hate the veto/voting....

 

[fraij da 5 11]

My last team.  Standard scoring...

I agree

as long as the teams involved are not in collusion
