kolp 9 Posted September 2, 2014 Tannehill Murray Gio Spiller DeAngelo Cruz Watkins Tate Baldwin Graham Gronk Reed Ertz Kelce Saints kicker Phins D 12 teams, half ppr. 1qb/2rb/2wr/1te/1flex. Flex can be wr/rb/te, so at least I can start 2 of the freaking 5 I drafted... But that puts Spiller on my bench... I don't even know how it happened. I was drinking obviously, but every time my pick came (had the 1.09 pick) it seemed that the best player on the board was a TE that had slipped a couple rounds, and so you have it. 5 freaking TEs. And Tannehill. My only hope is that I can trade away a couple of them for an upgrade at qb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your team actually isn't as bad as I would think with drafting 5 TE's especially getting Graham and Gronk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUsualSuspect 207 Posted September 2, 2014 One of the most unusual rosters in a 12 Teamer I have ever seen. Trading Is a MUST. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Tannehill. My only hope is that I can trade away a couple of them for an upgrade at qb. Ouch. After Murray and Gio it's just a cringe vest. At one point after the first wr I was begging myself to stop looking but couldn't turn away. Then we got to the TE...oh the TE..I rarely ever even draft 2 TE. 5 is simply abusing the concept of best available. Gronk could have been a stud wr or rb instead. Snag a backup like ertz? Ok that's fine. But that's way too many and saying you took the value that fell is not a good excuse. That's the entire point of getting graham, so you don't need to worry about TE. However...you got 2 good rbs so anything can happen. If Cruz and Tate play well you could have a perfectly fine season. The TE are what killed you tho. It's not that they were the best value, it's that you couldn't identify the value at wr and rb that was on the board during those picks. I'm being a but harsh but it's for your own good. As I said, don't panic, but you will have to drop at least a few of those TE within a couple weeks. Trade whichever one scores a TD in wk1 for any qb u can get that's on someone's bench. Big Ben, Palmer, anyone, and you will actually be in decent shape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kolp 9 Posted September 2, 2014 I hear what your saying, and mostly agree that I need to trade for a qb, but idk why you keep suggesting Palmer. In fact, Tannehill was 15th overall, and outscored Palmer in my league last year. He beat out guys like Kaepernick, Palmer, RGIII, Flacco, and was within a point or 2 of guys like Brady, Newton, Foles, and Wilson. I guess what I'm saying is that if I need to offload Gronk for a qb, I'm setting the bar a bit higher than Palmer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Simms 11 127 Posted September 2, 2014 I think Palmer seemed to grasp the O the second half of last season and posted very good stats. The receivers, pass catching back and oline make him a good 2nd QB. Who is suggesting you trade Gronk for him? Gronk is getting you maybe a Stafford but considering you are in a position of weakness you need to target a Brady, Ryan, etc... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,338 Posted September 3, 2014 5 TEs is just too much. I'd trade gronk and drop 2 more or try and unload them onto someone else. At this point you need a flyer rb and a rookie wr with upside. Someone like cooks or Benjamin. Rb you pick up should be someone like Andre Williams or Tolbert who are some good vultures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Law 220 Posted November 25, 2014 Tell me it will be ok. No trades/waiver until week 3 in our league. Focked. In two 2-QB leagues, Tanny was #3 guy. In one league, he's performing at the same level as my #1 (Brees) and better than my #2 (Cutler). In the other league, he is now my #2 behind Luck after Foles went down. In both leagues, he's #8 on the year. I had him at about 16-18 pre-season. Exceeded that. No waivers till week 3!??! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kolp 9 Posted November 25, 2014 I assume you dropped Ertz & Reed. Who did you end up picking up? You're correct - dropped Ertz/Reed, traded Gronk for Maclin in week 4. Current team: Sanchez Hoyer D. Murray CJ Anderson T. Mason D. Robinson Gio L. Murray J. Maclin J. Gordon G. Tate R. White S. Watkins J. Graham T. Kelce Saints K Miami Def Just like every year, free agent moves saved my ass. Miami Def really helped for a 5-6 game stretch in the middle of the season when they were going off. I streamed qbs all year - dropped Tanny about 2 months ago for Palmer, then picked up Sanchez when Palmer went down. Qb def my weak spot and will probably be my downfall if I lose in the playoffs. Rest of team is set. Only trade I was able to pull off this season was Gronk for Maclin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
