jocstrap 8 Posted May 23, 2014 Basically, this is going to be easy for me to get into the money 2014! This is a Jocstrap tidbit for you rookies... 1 - I'm a running back type of guy - draft them early, and draft them often 2 - I'm not a very active trader because a philosophy of mine - "Why would I draft the guy in the first place if I didn't like him"? 3 - I will always, I mean always, find a good wr in later rounds - call it a gift of mine 4 - I pretty much suck at landing a dependable TE - I'm losing pts weekly in this head vs head 5 - I will draft a kicker and defense in rounds 17 and 18 6 - Qb's I'm torn on - Super studs ala Manning/Brees/Rodgers are priceless in this league. Can I fill a better roster with stout rb's and wr's before a 6/7th round qb? I took Manning in the 3rd last year and was holy --- this is awesome. In my $400 league I took Cam Newton earlier than I normally would take a qb, and that choice cost me big time. No worries for you rookies though - scratch PEYTON 5K MANNING off your draft boards, he's mine. and there you have it, inside the mind of a genius for a little bit of info...

jocstrap 8 Posted May 24, 2014 Tell Smashmouths that my rb corps of... Keeper - Jamaal Charles round #2 - Chris Johnson #3 Peyton Manning (couldn't resist) #4 Frank Gore ...will give me a chance in any ff game.

Just like it's going to do again in 2014 I had 3 top 10 backs last year and won the championship. round 1 Adrian Peterson round 4 Ryan Mathews (he doesn't count but was decent; on my bench mostly) round 7 Eddie Lacy round 12 Knowshon Moreno I removed this: from your post and put it in my post.

There's only one champ. Your RB's were good last year no doubt. this year other than Maybe Lacy (who I really don't see doing as well as he is being projected) really being all that great. Maybe AD has 1 more good year left but he started falling off - maybe he can chnnel his inner Curtis Martin. What sucks for you is losing Josh Gordon - kid is a STUD. Lacy and getting Gordon for a 4th would of been a steal! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Blue 06 195 Posted May 25, 2014 I think the only way we're gonna get drob in here is to start a thread praising Obama for something. The alarm will go off in his bat cave and he'll be here to refute it within minutes. Maybe while he's claiming victory in that thread, he'll accidentally see that he's up next for picking a team.

The Moz 69 Posted May 30, 2014 My biggest ETF Keepers so far are Delay keeping Allen for a 4th -- I like him but I seem him as a Mid range WR2 and I think he had a better option Frozen keeping Tate for a 4th as Cleveland sucks (in many ways) Drobs keeping Brady for a 4th takes the cake - especially when Brady is likely there in the 7th or 8th Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,681 Posted May 30, 2014 ADP wise it made sense to keep Bell but im just not sold on a guy who averaged 3.5 yards per carry. and he just flat out looked mediocre as a runner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
