Yep,
Feedback on you guys first, will even give you a silly ranking out of how many teams in your league, higher being better:
--- Quote from: Hoopz on August 30, 2012, 08:11:22 am ---Didn't like McGimpy so I grabbed Cam Newton and Demarco Murray. Not particularly comforting. Grabbed AP and Roddy White in the next two, then crazy family assailant Dez Bryant and Jeremy Maclin. Grabbed Ryan Williams, Roy Helu and Mendenhall later in hopes that one of them will be healthy and/or starting at some point when I need them. Took flier on Heyward-Bey getting comfortable with Palmer, Hernandez just as a WR not a TE, and Cutler as my backup who happens to have the same bye week as Cam Newton.

QBs – Cam will be decent depending on your scoring system, as will Cutler, wonder if you’ll have issues deciding which to start each week
RBs – I like Murray and he was a monster last year, injury shouldn’t be a recurring issue and Dallas will definitely need him to step up. AP should be good if the knee is good, Williams should be good if he can hold himself together, Helu is iffy and the entire Redskins backfield is a tossup, and Mendenhall eh. Murray and whoever is healthy that week to start.
WR – Roddy/Dez/Maclin – good group, I think Dez has potential to be a monster this year in response to all the off-field stuff and “Dez rules” and such, not to mention rest of Dallas receivers are banged up. HeyBey could be okay if Palmer is okay, not sure what you mean by Hernandez as WR instead of TE but should get a bunch of balls as Brady will spread it around, though he’ll have to share with Gronk, Welker, and Lloyd.
I give you a… 7 out of 10
--- Quote from: JMB on August 30, 2012, 09:18:44 am ---Had one draft last night 8 team league and ended up with the 7th pick. My picks went Calvin Johnson, I did take McGimpy, V. Cruz, Forte, J Nelson, R. Bush, E Manning, A. Brown, V Jackson, Pettigrew, Roethlisberger, Tamme, D Brown
This league starts 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, and has 2 flex spots. I will probably end up starting 4 WR's most weeks.

No offense but I’d think you would have a more impressive team with just 8 in the league.
QBs – Eli/Roeth – Good but not great except for a few big weeks. Wonder if you’ll have a decision problem like Hoopz above each week
RBs – McGimp/Forte/Reggie Bush/DBrown – Forte and Gimp to start, eyes on Bush and Brown to see what they do
WRs – Calvin/Cruz/Nelson/Brown/Jax – Here is your strength and yep it’s where your flexes will come from each week
TE – Pett/Tamme – I’ve seen a bunch of people grabbing Pett, so hoping good things for you
I give you a… 4 out of 8, I think your RB’s will hold you back and you don’t have enough QB to cover for it
Here’s me, had 3rd pick in a 12 team league, start QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, Def, K
QB: Matt Ryan/Matt Schaub – Happy with Ryan and waited a while for a backup and Schaub was still there, not sure why but happy to get him
RB: Ray Rice/Willis McGahee/Cedric Benson – Aside from Rice I’m WEEAAKK here and not happy
WR: Julio Jones/Andre Johnson/Stevie Johnson/Greg Little/Randy Moss – Jones/Johnson combo should be good to ride each week, got Little and Moss to see what happens
TE: Brent Celek – Came on strong at the end of last year for Philly
Def: Houston – Good last year, expect Texans to do well in division
K: Garrett Hartley – NO kicker assuming he gets job, should be steady points
I give myself a… 9 out of 12, I think I’m strong in 5 of the 6 key positions
Luck all!

We don't need to start a TE but can use one in a WR spot.
I usually determine who my guy is and always play him unless it's going to be severe weather, major injuries, etc. I try and avoid flip flopping as it just leads me to getting whip sawed.... I have some gambles that if a couple pay off, I can do well. If not, well there's always our Pick Em here. :lol And my dynasty team.
I like your team with Rice and Benson. I think crazy Cedric could do well as long as he keeps his act together. On that offense, he could be feast or famine though. Andre Johnson's hammies are going to be a concern but with Julio, you have a great young stud.
I did grab the Bears and Jets defenses in the 13/14 rounds so that's a plus, I hope.

+1
I used to look forward to the NFL season every year, I was in 3 fantasy football leagues, and I ran one of my own. I'm not in any fantasy leagues at all this year, and I just don't care about the NFL, not sure why...

ChadTower:
$230 was worth it if you only want the shirts to wear around the house.
