Re: Fantasy Football Discussion
12th pick in a 12 team league with standard scoring. TE is the same as WR.
QB: Drew Brees
RB: Ezekiel Elliot, Isiah Crowell, Chris Ivory, DeAndre Washington
WR: Gronk, Sammy Watkins, Golden Tate, Larry Fitzgerald, Colby Fleener, Travis Benjamin
K: Josh Brown
DST: Bengals
I was surprised to see Elliot fall to me; if he's as good as advertised I'll be very happy. I picked Ivory after Crowell but will likely start Ivory instead, at least early on.
Picked Brees with the 4th. I did not expect he would be there at the end of the 5th. There was no one picked after him I would been excited to take though.
Somehow Larry Fitzgerald dropped late, to like the 8th or 9th round. When I picked him everyone thought he was already off the board. I like my catching corps better than running.
A couple flyers in Travis Benjamin & DeAndre Washington.
My kicker was the last pick of the draft.
Since I have Tate the temptation is to use Golden Tate Warriors as my name but I like OxyContin Eyed Joe too.
QB: Drew Brees
RB: Ezekiel Elliot, Isiah Crowell, Chris Ivory, DeAndre Washington
WR: Gronk, Sammy Watkins, Golden Tate, Larry Fitzgerald, Colby Fleener, Travis Benjamin
K: Josh Brown

Josh Brown is facing a one game suspension. Just a heads up if you aren't already aware. You'll have to stream someone for that first week.Biff Pocoroba wrote:12th pick in a 12 team league with standard scoring. TE is the same as WR.

Re: Fantasy Football Discussion
Otherwise, nice haul. It's too bad you're not in a PPR given your strength at WR/TE.

Re: Fantasy Football Discussion
Helluva team, man. Well done.
I'm really gun shy about Dez. I have the 8th pick in my main league. I know he'll be there but after last season....
What are your thoughts on him?

Interesting. There's no way I could have passed up either of those guys for Dez. Good luck to you, my friend.

Is this the year he falls off? It happens to all the alpha eventually. Maybe with the injuries and the Brady suspension people are staying away? Crazy. I still think the guy counts as another WR on your roster. And he's gonna get so many red zone targets.
People love Dez and he has all the talent in the world. I'm just so gun shy now. I had him last season and it was a disaster. Plus who is Dallas's back up? When Romo goes down -- and it's a when, not an if -- who's going to throw the ball to him? I should probably take my emotions out of it but that dude burned me big time last season.

I'm in a $50 league this year. Why do I keep signing up for these leagues? I stop paying attention in mid-October.
