AIGHT

so my draft was yesterday, this year my league is only a 10 man, but it was 100 an entry. i finished second and 3rd the past two years, and went RB heavy, with miserable luck, between adrian peterson, and leveon bell respectively, pretty much every back would let me down. last year i was able to grab jordan howard and jay ajayi which helped immensely.

so word my squad (PPR btw)

QB- Matt Ryan
RB- Todd Gurley
RB- Dalvin Cook
WR- Antonio Brown
WR- Deandre Hopkins
TE- Tyler Eifert
FLEX- Allen Robinson
D/ST - RAVENS
K- Dustin Hopkins

BENCH

WR - Corey Coleman
WR - Donte Moncrief
RB- Mike Gillislee
RB- Doug Martin
QB- Phillip Rivers
TE- Eric Ebron

I'm not happy with my backs. At all. I picked 3rd, david johnson, and le'veon bell gone immediately. took brown. so being 3rd i didn't pick again until the 8th pick of the second, and hopkins was there, so i had to take him, people were already reaching for RB's, and i didn't want to take one that early who didn't deserve it. My next pick gurley was still there so i just said fuck it and bit the bullet. hoping for the best but the rams are garbage and i know im gonna regret it. basically every RB was gone by my next pick, i was gonna grab zeke or mcafferey but they were both gone, so i went with cook. i bought the FSU hype from him. hoping it translates to the NFL and murray and mckinnon don't leach his carries. im not too hopeful though having had to use vikings backs the past couple years. they're a miserable offense. allen robinson was still there and that was a no brainer to me. having him in the flex bodied any RB options still available. i was gonna try for gronk/olsen/kelce but they were all gone by then so word robinson.

everyone else sorta fell into place

i got high hopes for gillislee in NE. same with doug martin when he comes off suspension. i bought the hard knocks hype he looked fresh from what i seen and that offense should be clicking this year. corey coleman is kinda my sleeper, he's kizers favorite target and looked good in preseason. i don't like moncrief but where i got him i felt i had to. rivers is basically there for ryans bye and im dropping him. ebron i took cuz there was no one else worthy really and i keep waiting on him to beast but he won't. like charles clay.

but word. whats your guys weekly squads looking like

[Fart]

Damn lol 2 te's and 2 qb's in a 10 team. yikes.

Dalvin Cook will prob be your best RB all year

My draft is tomorrow and its all pretty much hawk fans so I will be hopefully grabbing super good value in the double digit rounds. 12 team ppr

[Ghost1]

Got dalvin too

Also managed to grab bell THO WOOO

Qb situation a little fucked tho....I have luck....so I pulled him this week an put cutler in off the bench

Both my tight ends are questionable to start this week also -_-


I'll post full squadron tomorrow when I get back to work

yea man i dunno i just wasn't feeling who was available when i took rivers and ebron, i wasn't feeling them either though haha.

i just felt content enough at WR and the RB situation was already at "i don't know if i'd even grab him off the waiver wire" if needed lol.

this league is the same one i've been in but all the scrubs are gone as well since it went to 100 entry. 1000 to first place, nothing for second/third.

word to the luck thing. i wouldn't worry to much about the questionable status until saturdayish

and tight ends i mean outside of gronk/kelce/olsen are basically streamable.

second tier is jordan reed (almost if not arguably first tier) but word dudes like jimmy graham, tyler eifert etc. but really even them are interchangable.

when i took two tight ends it seemed logical in my head but now i'm realizing i survived just picking one up week to week before lol.

ive done the same with qb's. cutler could snap down in miami, i actually like him there. he's got talent a good o-line and rb so its his job to fuck up.

but if cutler is shit for a little while their will always be someone to make up points

i dunno

im hype though

[Ghost1]

Man wtf hurricane fucking my cutler swap up

Leaving me to choose between Alex smith or ur boy flacco

Is he fucked after his injury or what? Is he gonna shit the bed against the Bengals this weekend or WHAT talk to me UH OH

[Inno]

Alex smith is a save bet bruh.

Solid 15 points

[uh-oh]

flacco will be middling at best probably. i'm thinking a statline like

24 of 35
260 yards
1 TD

something like that.

he's perfectly fine injury wise, he's been healthy the whole time really, he just tweaked his back lifting weights in the offseason, the type of thing you just wait out.

the only thing holding him back, is 1, the new offensive line. they're gonna take a couple games to gel and give him proper time back there for them to be 100 percent as a unit

and 2, the new weapons at his disposal, woodhead is pretty much plug and play, he doesn't need to develop chemistry with him

but maclin he needs to be more familiar with, and boyle/watson at TE. he's kind of stepping into a new offense. so while he knows the playbook, its the same offense from last season

he doesnt have the benefit of 6-8 weeks of practice reps with his new team mates and lineups basically

so he's gonna play it safe i'm sure

ALL THAT SAID

watch him just let bombs fly to perriman wallace and maclin, throw 4 td's for 500 yards and no ints lol.

[big baby]

all he teams legit trash holy fuka

[Ghost1]

I put goff in cuz I really just need him for a week and like his match up this week an feel like patriots gon put the pain on smith tonite

Is GUHD choice?!

[uh-oh]

probably not.

alex smith blows too though

if youre debating between goff/flacco/smith for FF, though. something has gone terrible at the QB position lol

eli available? anyone from a team that actually has a competent passing attack lol

[PancakeBrah]

Anyone but Goff.

Literally the worst.

[PancakeBrah]

Qb-newton/roethlisberger
Hb-ajayi, leveon bell
Wr- obj, hilton, desean
Te-gronkowsk
Flex-some trash player from my bench probably coleman
K-forgot
D-houston

Bench- corey davis, corey coleman, ameer abdullah, josh doctson, kendall wright, john brown

10 team auction keeper. Kept ajayi and hilton (didnt know about luck). Spent more than half the remaining budget on Bell and OBJ, the first two players nominated, and spent the next few hours drinking fireball and shitty beer

Probably going to suck

[Ghost1]

I put smith in late minute lol

Auto draft left me with luck at qb1 and cutler on bench. Had cutler set to play but hurricane fucked that UP
