RicemanX 20 Posted September 4, 2012 There are 10 teams and someone drafts the Niners D in the 6th round and someone drafts David Johnson from Pittsburgh with a 9th round pick. That's all. Needed to tell someone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waxg 3 Posted September 4, 2012 I drafted my brother's team for him in his work (yahoo) league. 3 teams on autopilot for the duration 1 team (not on auto) drafted Pitts D on the SECOND ROUND 4th PICK. (Before Fitz, Julio, etc.) Then he gloated about it in the chat room. Meanwhile I drafted Benson for my bro in the 7th round after at least 2 KICKERS had been drafted!

montana 89 Posted September 4, 2012 Drafted for a friend of mine on Monday in his 12 team work league because he was on vacation. Someone drafted 4 TEs. 4! You can only start 1 (flex is RB/WR). 4 of his 16 spots are TEs. He went Graham 1st round, Gronk 2nd round, Tamme 6th round, Chandler 12th round. His roster is horrible! Safe to say the worse one I've ever seen. 2 QBs, 4 RBs, 4 WRs, 4 TEs, 1 K, 1 D. And the sh!t he was talking about how he had the 2 best TEs & the best D (49ers) was funny as hell. Sad thing was, he was dead F'n serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
montana 89 Posted September 4, 2012 I might add that 2 of the owners were chics...both of whom outdrafted this balloonknot with 4 TEs.....which isn't saying a whole lot. (no offense Cara - you have mad knowledge) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,339 Posted September 5, 2012 Had someone take the Patriots kicker Gostkowski in the 3rd round and then the 49ers D in the 5th round. This is a standard scoring league with no IDP. Then had a guy take a LB in the 9th round without even realizing it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mikequig 2 Posted September 6, 2012 In a 12 team 3 keeper league you snag Matt Forte with the 7th pick and get Jamal Charles coming back. Thats like getting them in the 4th and 5th rounds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted September 6, 2012 There are 10 teams and someone drafts the Niners D in the 6th round and someone drafts David Johnson from Pittsburgh with a 9th round pick. That's all. Needed to tell someone. It takes all kinds. Lots of people draft to fill their starter spots first, then go with backups later. Many, many people don't understand that kickers are interchangeable and you can cobble together defenses off the WW that can perform as well as a top tier DST. Every year I watch people in drafts get their core guys then go immediately after the top defense and kicker a round or two later, like clockwork. but we were all new to this once, and as such should try not to be too critical.

Good post. And while it's good for a laugh, once the season starts, the draft no longer matters. We had a guy last year that took stafford with the 14th pick in a 12 teamer. Everyone was shocked. He went on to fill out his starting spots before taking any backups...he ended up winning the league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For as much time as we spend on it, it's undeniable that it's a good deal luck. I played with a good group of guys for nearly 10 yrs (until this year when the commish and his PMS bullchit got the better of me) and they somehow let me get Stafford and Graham very late in the draft last year...you hand me the 4th best QB and 2nd best TE anywhere past the 10th and I'm almost guaranteed to win the whole thing.

420allstars 13 Posted September 7, 2012 I am actually comishing a very basic re-draft league with some buddies from high-school, 6 of them have never played FF before, 2 have very little experience and 2 (me and one other guy) have been playing for years.. The draft was a ###### show..sanchez and tebow were both drafted, foster was drafted after MJD, ect, ect.. let’s just say I was ready to pass out over some of the picks. Long story short I actually Like my team the least out of all the redraft teams I have this year.. I somehow managed to fock up what should have been the easiest draft of my life just goes to show never underestimate your competition.. I will guarantee one of the noobs wins this league!

Redstone 0 Posted September 7, 2012 This year Im the guy you would be laughing about at work thanks to espn auto-pick. 8 team league so everyone should be loaded. Due to my $ league I couldn’t make the draft so thanks to autopick and no position limits I had drafted 5 qbs within 10 rounds. Stafford, cam, manning, ryan, cutler. Hoping to make some trades after week one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarvis Basnight 119 Posted September 7, 2012 Joined it for the first time this year...it's 12 team. No one was all that far off but whoever's house we were at had his personal mix going for "background music" and it was some filthy rap and metal mix. No one else seemed to mind much but I was really uncomfortable. The whole scene was kinda ghey since we're all in our 30's and fathers. Not a bunch of little HS kids.

ian Potter 9 Posted September 8, 2012 Didn't see this topic with the post I just put up. GREAT TOPIC. Last minute was asked to join a work league live draft tonight; ESPN Standard $100 buy in, 10 team. Couple interesting picks. I picked at #9 and had McCoy fall to me. Both Manning bros were selected by same team in the 2 and 3 rounds. Felix Jones went in the 6th and handfuls of kickers and defenses were off the board before round 10. Draft took over 2.5 hours. Anyone else have similar or awful experiences? I felt as if I was doing something shameful with each player selection. My team: QB- Ryan, Rivers RB- McCoy (9), McFadden (11), Martin, Hillis, Wilson WR- Cruz (31), Decker, Austin, Britt, Wayne, T Young TE- Graham (29) Def- Bills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 2,292 Posted September 8, 2012 I just got done helping a guy at work with his league. It is a 14 team league and he just asked for my advice on picking up some RB that were on the WW. He was hesitant to pick anyone up b/c WW moves are $5 a piece. The two players that stood out to me were DeAngelo Williams and Toby Gerhart. The RB he had on his team are Mcfadden, Tolbert, and Ronnie Brown. I couldn't believe in a 14 team league that those options were available. I had him pick up DeAngelo and drop Tolbert. I told him to pick up Gerhart too but he didn't want to pay the extra $5 since you can only start 2 RB anyway. Wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
