[quote=12thMan;725312]So my draft begins in couple of hours...what do you guys think about C.J. Spiller. I really want him, but maybe in a later round?[/quote]Don't reach on him. Do you know your draft postion now?

Vinny says: "When engaging in trades make sure you add a player or two to sweeten the pot. Unfortunately in Fantasy Football you can't resort to using draft picks. Also make sure you stare down the other person when offering a trade."

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

I'm drafting number two...

Peterson or Chris Johnson

I drafted Jones-Drew at number 1. He's the safest bet not to get injured. I'm probably wrong about CJ, but Peterson always feels like he's on borrowed time.

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

Shit, mistake....I'm drafting nine. Think I'm taking CJ Spiller:)

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

Took Pierre Thomas with the ninth pick.

Not in the first round. I got him in the fourth or fifth round. Maybe even as late as the sixth.

Here use this.

Way to many Cowboys.

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

I know...that's why I can't sleep tonight.

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

So it was an interesting night, to say the least, at my first fantansy draft. Couple of things I wanted to point out that explains my picks, which were questionable.

We briefly lost the internet connection and the system made an auto pick for me at RB/Knowshon Moreno. I was so pissed! Our league is also using entire defenses as well IDP. I drafted late in the first.

[B]Offense:[/B]

QB Philip Rivers (2/16)
RB Pierre Thomas (1/9)
RB CJ Spiller (3/33)
RB Knowsho Moreno (autopick 5/57) this is also a flex position
TE Chris Cooley (4/40)
WR Braylon Edwards via trade for Robert Mecham (7/81)
WR Santan Moss (6/64)

[B]Defense:[/B]

Pittsburgh (8/88)

[B]IDP[/B]

Terrell Suggs
DeAngelo Hall
DeMarcus Ware
Dwight Freeney

K - Robbie Gould

[B]Back-ups:[/B]

Donovan McNabb
Eddie Royal
Tashard Choice
Brian Westbrooks (19/225)
Shaun Ellis
Adrian Wilson

Yeah, seriously, I'd be dealing all of them if I ended up with that roster. I did pick up Miles Austin last year just before his explosion...and that helped me a lot, but I never draft and rarely own a Cowboy. He was an exception. He won't repeat that success though.

Think about trading Homo, you could probably get a lot of value for him. He's overrated and overhyped. People will overpay.

Usually, when I pre-rank my players, I completely exclude Romo and some other Dallas players. I also move many of theirs and the Eagles' players down a little....just so I won't end up with many of them.

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

Here's my draft from yesterday...

QB Aaron Rodgers
RB1 Shonne Green
RB2 Beanie Wells
WR1 Reggie Wayne
WR2 DeSean Jackson
TE Jermichael Finley
W/R Clinton Portis
K Robbie Gould
Def Minnesota

Bench:
Ahmad Bradshaw
Kyle Orton
Braylon Edwards
Santonio Holmes
Heath Miller

I'm worried about week one and whether to sit Beanie Wells or Shonne Green. Green is going against Baltimore plus LT has been looking good in preseason. Wells is against the Rams... so I'm thinking Green should sit in favor of Bradshaw, but I'm not sure how the whole Bradshaw/Jacobs split is going to look. I probably need to trade for a better #1 RB.

Re: Fantasy Tips
 

people are saying bradshaw is looking a TON better than Jacobs in fantasy terms. I'd start what you have right now shown. Aaron Rodgers is going to be awesome this year. You HAVE to start shonne green too.
