    I see Roy Williams and Reggie Brown. Who's the 3rd WR in the top 20? Anyways, I like Roy Williams but I'm not crazy about R.Brown - McNabb has never had a true #1 go-to guy.

    That was a very short-lived relationship. McNabb still has never had a main WR for a whole season. Brown was there last year and he never authoritatively assumed the #1 role.

    That's a hell of a team. How many teams are in your league?

    Does defense include special teams? Otherwise, you may want to pick up a different D.

    Especially since they are playing at Indianapolis in Week 1. My advice for him is to drop the Saints defense and go the revolving door defense route for the season.

    That has to be the worst draft board I've ever seen.

    Yes, if you don't win this league you should retire from fantasy football.

    Tom Brady #1 overall? :rofl2:

    it actually was really disorientating, it completely shot my gameplan with my previous rankings, thats why QB was a bit sketchy, too many RBs and WRs to draft along with Davis

    i worked a little with my team, now it?s:

    QB Peyton Manning
    WR Randy Moss
    WR Chris Chambers (someone actually waived him, and i just picked him up!!!)
    WR TO (i traded Stallworth&Merriman for TO&Vilma)
    RB Marshawn Lynch
    RB Vernand Morency
    TE Benjamin Watson
    BN Jerious Norwood
    BN Ronald Curry
    BN Daniel Graham
    BN Jason Campbell
    BN Calvin Johnson
    K Shayne Graham
    DEF Minnesota
    D Jason Taylor
    D DeMarcus Ware
    D Kerry Rhodes
    D Vilma
    BN Kirk Morrison


    i?m still trying to use some of my WRs as a tade bait to get a solid 2nd back.

    Which one of them would you trade in terms of value/production?

    Chamber, TO, Moss or Johnson?

    Yeah, you need another RB. Calvin Johnson and Randy Moss are two guys whose stock is probably higher than what they'll give you. Hold on to TO if you can but some variation of the other 3 guys should probably be used as trade bait for a RB.

    Edit: But don't make a bad trade cuz Norwood actually may wind up being a great RB this year.

    Couldn't agree more. Words just can't describe how shitty and fucked up that board is.



    Just WOW.

    Tried a little something different, I NEVER take a QB early, I always make sure I get at least my starting RBs and WRs, and usually 1 backup each – meaning I go into like the 8th round before even looking at QBs.
    This time I took Manning and Harrison back-to-back for the ol’ “double points” scheme. My running backs are iffy, but not terrible, and I ended up getting some pretty good other receivers (I’m very high on Ward, and can switch up the others depending on whose hot)

    QB: Peyton Manning
    RB: Marshawn Lynch, Deuce McCallister, Jerius Norwood, Leon Washington
    WR: Marvin Harrison, Hines Ward, Vincent Jackson, Jericho Cotchery, Bernard Berrian, Michael Clayton
    TE: Heath Miller, Eric Johnson
    K: Robbie Gould
    D: Jacksonville

    *note* this is from a mock draft, so I can't make trades or anything

    I used this strategy last season in a 10 team league basically because I had the 10th pick and had to. It worked out well in the end as Manning and Harrison connected for 3 TD's championship week to bring home the bacon. It was tough when they didn't hook up though.

    I like the way you built your team, but even more important than with a standard RB's and WR's first strategy, you would have to pay close attention to the waiver wire. Obviously you can't do that with a mock, but I think you get my point.

    having 2 WRs from the same team is always a little problem, aside from that, that?s a very solid team.
