I assume most on this forum play. How do your teams look this yr. This is the first yr I've played for a cash payout. 25 to enter to win 125. 2nd place wins 75.

We drafted last Tuesday in an 8 man league (hard to find players on night shift). Since it's a shallow league, everyone has a stacked team. Everyone went QB happy at the start, but I kept taking RB's since QB is deep this yr. Here's how my team panned out:

QB:

R. Wilson

Roethlisberger

Schaub

Locker

RB:

Ray Rice

Richardson

Demarco Murray

David Wilson

Shonn Greene

WR:

Megatron

Mike Wallace

Greg Jennings

Britt

Stevie Johnson - Bills

Kendall Wright

TE:

Jimmy Graham

Jermichael Finley

Defense:

Bengals

Giants

K:

Bironas

Overall, I'm very happy with my team. 4 of the top 15-20 backs, and Megatron. Wish I had a better 2nd WR, but I'm happy with what I have.

How is your team(s) looking? Are we looking to start a ChopCountry league?
 
12 team league

RB Lynch
RB Murray
WR Demaryius Thomas
WR Colston
WR T.Y hilton
TE Martellus Bennett(should've gone after a TE earlier)
Flex: Green-ellis
D: Bears

my first opponent modified his starting lineup for week 1, going with Wilson over Brees at QB... LOL

Oh, and it's a QB favorable league.

10 team league. Who do I start at QB?
 
Also I have offers of Kaep for AJ Green....and Richardson for Dez Bryant.

Kaep and Richardson for AP and a throw in.
 
Kaep for Green seems like a great trade for you, especially since you have Griffin on the bench.
 
14 team league where you can start a QB as your flex, so they go fast.

Brees (pick 5)

Alfred Morris

Lamar Miller

Jordy Nelson

Danny Amendola

Jared Cook

Michael Vick

Browns D\st

Phil Dawson

Mike Williams TB

Roy Helu

Shane Vereen

Zach Sudfeld

Terell Pryor

Josh Gordon
 
12 man PPR league.

Kaep
Trent, Gore
Roddy, Steve Smith (Panthers)
Vernon Davis
Tavon Austin
Rams
Zuerlein
 
I am not necessarily on the bandwagon per se. I think he will have a good season and when I picked him there weren't many quarterback options.
 
I would take him, just not at the rate he's going.

The drop off from RB's in the first 2-3 rounds to 4-6 is HUGE.

Not a big difference fantasy wise from Rodgers to say, a Eli/Romo/Stafford in the 7th-9th round. I wait on QB's.

Got a draft tommorow, plan to do the same.
 
Got a 10 team PPR league drafting tonight. Won it last year. Has a nice little wrinkle in it though... Every transaction cost you a dollar, and you can auction a player off in weeks 7 or 8 and 50 % tax on the selling price goes to the pot to build it up. Also 50 dollar penalty for last and 25 for next to last.
 
Kaep will be a better real life QB than fantasy QB. He won't be runnign as much as he did last year. I wouldn't take him in fantasy for that reason.

This is the first time I can remember where I actually had guys on my fantasy team that were on the 49ers. I have a handful of teams and I believe they are all have Vernon Davis.
 
Frank Gore may not be a flashy pick, but he is a rock solid No 2 RB in Fantasy football. Great OL helps.

I like what SJax will bring to Atlanta. Guy can be a PPR monster. Should score 10 tds easily.
 
They are going to dial back his carries this year and then increase for the playoffs. Hunter is a great later round rb pick.
