For those of you who have drafted at the 1.8 position...

Recommended Posts

I took Manning but I play in a rather Qb friendly league. Top 7 were big 3, Edge, Tiki, S-Jax, Rudi. In hindsight I may have taken either Ronnie or LJordan but I am higher on McGahee (2nd rd pick) than others and think he will perform reasonably close to these guys in my league's scoring system so I rolled the dice. We'll see how it works.

Ronnie Brown :lol:

 

 

The guy in my league with the 8th pick took Steven Jackson. I went immediately after him with Ronnie Brown..

Manning but kind of regret it, unless he has a huuge year. I passed on Edge, and first 7 were RBs.

Wow, that's Identical to the first 7 picks in my draft and my first two picks were yours too. I got Peyton at 8, wanted Rudi or S. Jackson, but they were gone. I didn't like Lamont, Caddy, Ronnie Brown, etc any better than Willis and I got him in the second. I need Peyton to set the world on fire and a 2nd RB to step up. I didn't go into it wanting to get Manning, but I sure didn't love any of those RB's sitting there at 8 either.

I picked out of the 8 slot in a 12 teamer, and I got Steven Jackson. It was between him and Ronnie Brown for me. I hope I don't regret not taking Brown. You can see the rest of my team in my Sig.

Standard scoring, Yahoo 10-teamer. I picked at 1.8 and Tiki fell into my lap (figuratively, of course) :(

 

The guy at 1.4 picked PManning and the others before me went for the younger guys (Ronnie Brown, SJax, Cadillac etc.) Couldn't pass up Tiki, then still had Lamont Jordan in the 2nd round.

I took Cadillac Williams. I wanted S Jax or Rudi J but both were gone. I passed on L Jordan and Edge because I just don't have faith in the O-lines.

7. Steven Jackson

8. Carnell Williams

9. LaMont Jordan

10. Edge

I got Jordan. I'm optimistic about his year. If Manning would have been there, I would have taken him though. 14 team league, QB TD's 6pts. Team on Sig.

I picked 8th out of a 14 teamer.

 

I got Steven Jackson in the 1st.

I then got Clinton Portis in the 2nd.

I then got Rueben Doughns in the 3rd.

Reggie Wayne in the 4th.

 

I plucked as many RB's as I could early. 14 teams it's tough.

 

RB's in my 14 teamer, I have S. Jackson, C. Portis, Droughs, C. Taylor, W. Lundy, M. Barber III...

 

My WR's stink other than R. Wayne.

Same here- I took Cadillac- and actually couldn't pass on Edge on the turn around.
