Recommended Posts

12 team league

6 points for all TDs

1 point per 10 yards rushing/receiving

1 point per reception

1 point per 25 yards passing :dunno:

 

1 QB 2 RB 3 WR 1 K 1 IDP

Cedric Benson

Chris Brown

Dominic Rhodes

TJ Duckett

 

Andre Johnson

Reggie Brown

Laverneous Coles

Keenan McCardell

You got Lucky, with PARKER falling to you in the 3rd, I presume?

 

After my Westbrook pick 11 of the next 14 picks were WRs along with Bush, McGahee, Palmer making Parker available.

 

 

when are you going to get some wide receivers to help?

 

IN a PPR league I don't mind using guys like Coles or Bryant because you know their teams will be playing from behind alot and will be forced to throw.

You sacrificed your team for Manning...you really need to hope your WRs have a good year.

Boy...did you get lucky!! Real lucky at that. My suggestion to you is try to package one of your backup RB with one of your WR's and see if you can turn it into a 2nd WR.. I don't have much faith in Reggie Brown as your 2nd WR..

That means you have faith in A Johnson as his #1 :unsure:

Sorry, this is not a good team. It's the curse of taking Manning in the first. The only solid bet I see after Manning is Heap. RBs are just OK. WRs are terrible!! NEVER TAKE A QB IN THE 1ST ROUND!!!!!

Stop ragging!!!! This dude's team in a 12 teamer is pretty damn good!!

 

Yeah, maybe according to conventional wisdom the wrs suck, but we all should know that according to conventional wisdom, nothing comes to form in ff.

 

Anyone of those wrs could blow up they are all starters....same for the rbs. Good ideas all around.

Seriously...where do you fault him? Galloway was money last year...he has been a supreme talent since day one, why can he not be a Tim Brown type that just puts up points? Everybody is down on JG this year, but there is really no good reason for it...using the same reasoning you could downgrade Tiki, but NO, he is top 4 bar none....what a fukking joke...Coles, McCardeel and Bryant could all blow up, no problem.

 

 

I see his team as being very good and championship worthy if PM goes for 40+, which I have said is a FOREGONE CONCLUSION this year. :blink:

You said it, Galloway WAS, McCardell WAS, Coles almost WAS, Andre never WAS and Bryant, lol!

On a more serious note, why and the world do you defend his team so much? That in itself speaks volumes! :cry:

Bouve, I also had the 8th pick in a 12 teamer last night. Picked up Manning and came

back with Westbrook. After that, it was Dunn, Horn, Djax, M. Bell and A. Green. I'm

not overly excited about my team, definitely need Bell or Green to step up. I'm hoping

Manning can carry a team like he did two years ago. Middle round(5-9) picks are going

to be tough this year. I disagree with the guy who said never take a QB in the 1st round.

Warner has carried me to a title, Manning has, Culpepper has, and going back a ways,

Favre did once.

I've been doing different mocks from different positions and in all honesty if you're drafting between 7 and 10, Manning is pretty much the best available...the problem is you end up shooting yourself in the foot on RBs.

Having Manning alone should get you into the playoffs with 6 pts per TD.

RB's are solid.

WR blow.

Very good TE.

 

I think good team. Especially for a 12 teamer.

 

No championship though, unless you make some moves.

Bouve?

 

The original Bouve?

 

I'm here and there, but haven't seen a post by you in a while.

 

Thanks for the Manning check. You did do o.k. I still think a RB is the only choice in the first round this year. Could you cut and paste a complete draft from your league?

Team looks pretty good to me. ALL of those receivers have upside. Personally, I wouldn't want Andre Johnson, though.

 

Did you take Andre Johnson in the 4th round?
