Tigris Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Don't kill me. Yahoo standard scoring, 3rd pick in a 12 man league. Bengal and Brown heavy league. Anyway... My brain says Rice but my heart says otherwise. I think better than I love. 1-2 is CJ and AP. What do I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 I'd do it. Too much uncertainty around Foster. Ray Rice should get a lot more looks this year now that they only have 1 real legit receiving option. I'm going for him in a lot of my leagues.

Tigris Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 I feel better. Thank you fellas. I'll still root against him every week but there's over $500 to 1st in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he will replicate his numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Tigers Johnson| Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Depends on your scoring... Is your scoring slanted so RB's are more important than other positions? We changed our scoring so top players mattered... not positions...that way it evened out the league when it came time to draft... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted September 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 It's standard yahoo the QBs generally score the most but an elite RB is a premium... And u need 2 backs starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoBengal Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 I restrict fantasy drafting discrimination to Steelers only. And I don't take Browns - mainly because they haven't produced much worth taking in years. Plus William Green fucked me years ago, which I chalked up to God punishing me for taking a Brown to begin with. I think Rice will be huge this year.

JC Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 Not sure if Freeman is a sleeper, but he should be awesome this year at QB. LaGarrette Blount was awesome at the end of last year. Mike Williams is Freeman's favorite target. Basically, I'm pretty high on TB players. They have a third place schedule and were awesome last year.

Marvin Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 I think Freeman and Williams will disappoint. Blount will be solid for non-PPR leagues as a RB2, with good upside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Here's who I remember: QB - Schaub RB - Rice RB - Benson WR - Jennings WR - V. Jackson WR - Roy Williams, Meachem, Jones (HOU) <<don't know who to start>> TE - Winslow K - Kaeding DEF - Green Bay Also got Eli Manning, Tomlinson, Ronnie Brown, Hardesty. Might be dropping Hardesty for Anthony Armstrong after waivers clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do an auction, and some guy picked up Schaub for 5 bucks because he was one of those names that slipped through the cracks. My big sleeper was Jared Cook of Tennessee. He'd better be good since I didn't draft a second tight end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 I never draft back up TEs. The only reason I took the backup QB was because I contemplated Eli as a late grab for me if I waited till late to find my starter. I was hoping to get rivers on the way back but it never happened. I ended up grabbing Greg Jennings then turned around and took Vjax... Totally not the strategy I went in with but I really wanted rivers or Brees on the way back but we had 3 QBs go in the first round. Rodgers 6th, Vick 7th, Brady 9th I believe.

Tigris Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 I was invited to another live draft today. This one is for $20 though. the first one was $75 a person. I guess this second league is not nearly as competitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 If I were you, I'd try and turn and trade Eli Manning and Roy Williams for a WR like Brandon Marshall or Percy Harvin. You only have to sit Schaub once and in that Texans offense, he's bound to put up some big points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
