Hopefully 8 pm works for everyone, works better for me....I need to get some stuff done here at home

 

[BobD]

Sorry.....

No worries. If I knew what I was doing, there wouldn't have been a problem. I screwed it up.

 

[loomis41973]

[BobD]

Ok we are all set to draft at 8pm

Any input on selection time per pick? It's at 60 seconds now....We could go to 30 seconds???

You didn't have any problems from the earthquake, I hope.

[BobD]

One quick comment, having been burned on it, and not to be obvious, but the default mode, I think, of ESPN leagues is 4 pts for TD pass thrown. I think it's dumb, but it's how it is and it's what you have. So I'd downgrade the Peyton Mannings of the wor;ld, and given that passing is the name of the game, and QB TDs are downgraded, I'd upgrade the WRs -- the Calvin Johnsons, etc. No extra points for a reception in your league, so not as much a boost for WR and pass catching RBs as there would be in a points per reception league. Personally, I'd grab Johnson if you can, then take the best RB available. Then I'd just grab the best WR and RBs for a while. If you don't get a Peyton, Brees or Rodgers at QB, I'd probably wait; the next tier is pretty broad. I feel the same about TEs. If you don't get the guy from NO, I'd wait a bit. Kickers are last for me. I staff only one kicker and one defense (unless it's too good a defense to pass up late, in which case I'd take a second one. Big picture rule: I prefer upside to an aging veteran. I'd rather have Carlos Hyde than Fred Jackson, eg.

All just my opinion. I'm not some star, but I generally compete okay and make the playoffs, and win once in a while.

Edit: These relate to your league settings; different settings would require adjustments.

I really should learn how to do fantasy football. It looks and sounds like so much fun. I totally missed the wagon on that one

Yeah, I didn't see this until today. My problem is that I learn a lot by the end of the draft cycle than before. I don't do much research on who's what string, etc. That means the early pix are okay (more or less obvious), but you might miss things in picking your second and third RB or third or fourth WR.

Pretty much in the same camp. I don't research. Didn't even know the scoring system of the league. Could care less. Just thought it'd be fun to do with the Brahs...

 

[BobD]

I went with standard settings for the league. Good enough for having fun with it.

Yeah, sorry, I didn't mean your setting is dumb, just that I'm not sure what ESPN's logic is for the default (for the 4 point value on TD passes); maybe it's that you get rewarded for the reception on the WR end, so they don't want to count them twice. But it's a different position. So I don't understand. I played in a league once where the commish awarded 10 pts per touchdown pass. Didn't get that either, except he wanted a QB-driven league.

No worries, I knew what ya meant. Yeah I've played in some wild scoring leagues, especially with the QB..... if ya don't have Drew Brees or Peyton Manning you're screwed.

 

[BobD]

Alright ladies wake up and do your last minute lineup changes!

Good luck everyone!

 

[Quinntastic]

Ladies, where?

I thought I was the only lady up in this board right now...

 

[dre1919]

Glad I didn't draft Jamaal Charles. Ohhfph.

 

[Catholics_Rule]

At least none of you had RGIII. BRUTAL!

 

[BobD]

Tonight will be interesting. I have 64 and my opponent has 66. We both have 2 players left. Mine are Michael Floyd and the Arizona Defense.

 

[dre1919]

Lost by 2 points. Last time I listen to the advice of the website/app. I knew I wanted Darren Sproles in there and not Fred Jackson for Buffalo.

 

[BobD]

I lost by a ton. Calvin Johnson toasted me.

I'm at work now, but I'll post a league update when I get home.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Please don't......I have Romo

 

[Catholics_Rule]

Yeah, now Buffalo is splitting carries 3 ways, CJ Spiller, Fred Jackson, and Anthony Dixon.

 

[BobD]

Geez what a week for the NFL. Controversies, multiple key injuries and worst of all.....the 49ers lose.....to the Bears! #=@!!

I have one hope left to salvage the weekend. I'm playing against HCTI this weekend.....he's got 111 points and out of players, I've got 87 points with Andrew Luck and Trent Richardson left to play tonight. GO COLTS!!
