quote:QB: Ryan Tannehill, Sam Bradford Thanks Beer! To answer your question: Yeah, it's PPR -- there was a run of WR's at odd times, so I felt like I had to grab Edelman and Olsen right there if I was going to get them. I'm high on both players this year, so we'll see. For RB Depth, I'm hoping one of my WRs gives me some trade bait in case I need to snag an additional RB for insurance. For your team, I think Gore will be a reliable RB all season barring injury. I think among your other RBs that one of them is bound to be consistent, most likely Murray or Crowell. Not a fan of Andre this year, but I don't know how Arians is going to use him. Your WRs should carry you to wins most weeks.....Dez, Julio, Hopkins, and Boldin for the flex is just sick. Good to see you got a Top 4 TE in Kelce, too.

Seebee posted:I like the combo of Tannehill and Bradford. I like your RBs and think Ellington will be great. My only worry is that Crowell and Johnson will end up RBBCing them both into no value fantasy land, but it could turn into a CIN situation where they both could have value? WRs are crazy good, except for Boldin but he should have some good games on your bench. TE good. No complaints at all. Wish my draft would look like this. RBBC is a risk but Cleveland has no WRs, their offensive line looks solid, and I see Crowell as the starter. Johnson has had hamstring problems since high school and I mostly picked him up as a lottery ticket. My suspicion is that Crowell is going to shoulder the load. I debated getting David Cobb late instead but in the end I'm happy. railroad terror posted:Thanks Beer!

Supposedly Arians will use Andre a lot, and his backup is both raw and hurt. Getting Kelce in the 8th was my favorite steal of the draft.

Thanks. Yeah, I picked first in a snake draft and got a bit panicky about all of "position X" being gone by my next pick. I'd have to look at draft order but 16 of the next 18 picks were rb's and I didn't want the same thong happening with qb too. Green and Manning were my r2/r3 back-to-back picks. Anyone you'd toss for Davante Adams or is it too early to tell? Not totally confident with White given his age and injuries.

WRs are obviously great, don't love the Ellington pick (going RB-RB there I'd have taken Latavius and Abdullah), no major complaints elsewhere. You should drop your kicker for another RB lotto pick (lol, autocorrect changed RB to Arab)

She used BeerSheets too, and holy poo poo I'm glad she did because my precious little four month old angel went apeshit during the draft and there was no way she would be able to keep track of things otherwise. I agree her team looks pretty good but I see a lot of risk in Forte, Johnson, Randle, and Yeldon that makes me glad I went the direction I did. Zypher posted:WRs are obviously great, don't love the Ellington pick (going RB-RB there I'd have taken Latavius and Abdullah), no major complaints elsewhere. I know Abdullah is looking sick, but I'm really not high on starting rookies in a 10 team league. We're trying a rule this year where you have to keep the team you drafted until after the first week with an exception made for injuries so that teams that drafted Jordy loving Nelson in the 2nd have a chance to at least recoup some value. Otherwise I would've snagged Cobb as a lotto ticket.

Seebee posted:I just had my first Auction Draft. I am definitely week at WR, but I feel like people were bidding pretty high on them. I messed up a couple times though with the bidding. For example, I didn't draft a kicker and tried to drive the price higher on Woodhead, woops. Probably the biggest mistake was leaving $10 unused. Boo. Oof, I dunno about this. Auction is your chance to go out and assemble the best starters you possibly can. In contrast, you've essentially used a "roster mirroring" approach by taking a bunch of guys that are pretty similar to one another. It gives you good plug-and-play depth, but at the cost of investing a bunch of cash into players you intend to sit. You're bound to "choose" the wrong guy a lot and leave a lot on the bench each week, and even when you do choose correctly, you're liable to get smoked a good number of weeks by the folks starting JCharles and Antonio Brown and Luck and Julio etc, who have a much higher ceiling. Like, you did a good job not egregiously overpaying for anybody, but you just invested way too big of a proportion of your cash into your bench. Upside, though, is that I like the Crowell and Wheaton gambles for next year. Good lottery tickets. Also, if either Abdullah or Gurley turns out to be the next AP, you'll have a leg up next time around.

This was the first time our league had done auction draft, so almost everyone, including myself, was new on this format. I feel like a lot of teams spent almost their entire budget ($200) for those big names and don't have an entire starting roster and no bench. Hopefully those two, or one, will payoff, and next year have more of a budget to get those big name studs. Thanks again!

First draft of the year, Goontier Tier A, was last night. How'd I do? 12 teams, 0.5ppr, ESPN standard roster plus IDP (2 LB, 2 DB, 1 DL, 1 Flex). I picked 9th and my keepers were Julio (1st), Demarco (2nd), and Hilton (4th). QB: Tony Romo, Eli Manning RB: Demarco Murray, Andre Ellington, Shane Vereen, Bishop Sankey, Danny Woodhead WR: Julio Jones, TY Hilton, Vincent Jackson, Brandon Lafell, Pierre Garçon TE: ASJ, Antonio Gates LB: Derrick Johnson, Lawrence Timmons, Clay Matthews DB: Eric Weddle, William Moore DL: Rob Ninkovich Feeling like my RB situation could pan out well or completely gently caress me, same with the TEs.

What do you guys think? This is for a 10 man, standard scoring league. Got screwed on my receivers after 1 and 2, but I couldn't resist Jonathan Stewart after he fell to the 7th. At least that should be the easiest position to fill from waivers.

At least that should be the easiest position to fill from waivers. You're in great shape. Miller and Forte will be top 12 RBs, with JStew, Ivory, and Cobb all on the radar for top 25 RBs. Julio and Cooks are a really high end WR1 and WR2, and Wright should be at least a top 35 or 40 receiver. Even if not, one of Garcon and Smith will probably also be a borderline WR3. Gatts posted:Ok. 2 QB league. How many teams? Rodgers and Ben should be the top starting QB pair in your league, you're starting two top 15 WRs and a maybe top 25 WR, McCoy and Gordon could both disappoint somewhat heavily and still be top 20 RBs, and Abdullah and your bench are all totally startable guys.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:You don't specify the number of teams or scoring, so it's hard to say, but overall I like it. You have a ton of depth in your RB slot and I can buy that given the injury risk, but Bradford as a QB1 with no safety net is worrisome. Ladarius Green is a four week lottery ticket that may not pay out. I would rather see you focus on depth in those areas than Hillman. That said your RBs, given time, should help you patch up your failures.

Drafted my office league while attending 49ers-Cowboys last night. Didn't miss a pick. Bonuses for 325 passing yards, 125 rushing and 125 receiving. Also 0.5 PPR, 0.1 point per completion and 0.3 POINT PER RUSHING ATTEMPT BECAUSE WHY NOT Turn Down for Watt 1. (4) Le'Veon Bell (Pit - RB) 2. (17) LeSean McCoy (Buf - RB) 3. (24) Frank Gore (Ind - RB) 4. (37) Drew Brees (NO - QB) 5. (44) Emmanuel Sanders (Den - WR) 6. (57) Amari Cooper (Oak - WR) 7. (64) Joique Bell (Det - RB) 8. (77) Allen Robinson (Jax - WR) 9. (84) Arian Foster (Hou - RB) 10. (97) Tre Mason (StL - RB) 11. (104) Julius Thomas (Jax - TE) 12. (117) Duke Johnson Jr. (Cle - RB) 13. (124) Charles Johnson (Min - WR) 14. (137) Miami (Mia - DEF) 15. (144) Phil Dawson (SF - K) I'm fine with it given that I had been drinking for 4 hours and I was watching a drat football game. My WRs are megaweak but I went hard at RB because of the 0.3 PPrush

The 16-team .5ppr BEER LEAGUE rosters are in! Pick #8 QB: Romo RB: L. Murray RB: S. Vereen WR: D. Thomas WR. A. Jeffery Flex: A. Johnson TE: T. Kelce D: Colts K: Sturgis B: M. Colston B: T. Williams B: D. Sproles B: D. Bowe B: A. Smith B: R. Turbin B: T. Richardson With 16 teams, the draft boards really do start to dry up fast after the first 8 or 9 rounds. I'm happy with this team. Weakness is obviously RB, but I think I have enough power in WR/QB/TE (Kelce dropped to the 5th) to make up for it.

TubeStank and Prophecy so far look the best for me, with TubeStank having the edge there. Quality starters at each position and at least a couple decent bench options. General comments: I would not have gone for Foster in the 4th, especially when Allen Robinson and presumably other good dudes were still there. I also would not have rostered three QBs, better to have a total flier than a 3rd QB. That Jordy autodraft sucks too
