Fantasy Tips

I usually go
1. WR
2. RB
3. WR
4. RB
5. WR
6. QB, usually cutler or someone of those ranks
7. RB got arian foster here...what a steal
rest of the draft I go best available.


I think it's most important to grab that elite WR in the 1st round cause RB's are so plentiful in the NFL, plus how often does one stud play all 16 games? rarely. but WR's usually are go the whole season. Like nobody is arguing the production that a andre johnson gives you or someone in his tier of talent. but the top tier of RB's to me are a lot deeper.

Pretty good team. I Reeeeeaaaaally wanted Arian Foster but the guy right before me drafted him in the 7th. I had the first overall pick in a snake league so going 20 spots in between consecutive picks made it a bit hard to judge when to take guys.

Where did you take MJD? He didnt get taken until the 3rd round in my league. we were all scared to death of him. To put it in perspective, one guy took the Jets defense when MJD was still on the board. he's a moron Jets fan that thinks they'll get him 20ppg.

I'm lukewarm on MJD this year, but how on earth did he fall to the 3rd round?

My two starting lineups for week 1:

QB- Tom Brady
RB- Adrian Peterson
RB- Ronnie Brown
WR-Roddy White
WR-Wes Welker
WR/RB- Ahmad Bradshaw
TE- Antonio Gates
K- Matt Prater
D/ST- Dallas (I know, I know)

Peyton Manning
Ryan Grant
Pierre Thomas
Andre Johnson
Dwayne Bowe
Tim Hightower
Vernon Davis
Rob Bironas
Pittsburgh

So in the league above where I have Brady/AP, I'm a little stuck on my flex player. I'm up in the air between Ahmad Bradshaw, Tim Hightower, and Malcolm Floyd (I also have Gates, so I'd be starting two Chargers).

So my fellow fantasy gurus- Hightower, Bradshaw, or Floyd?

GO FLOYD, he'll probably be the #1 target on a pass heavy offense. just hope antonio gates doesn't theif a couple TD's from ya.

Dude it's not a 4 team league......it's a 6 team league. Huge difference. I'm actually in 3 leagues this year. Each league has a different style. Two of them are 10 team leagues one of which has a ridiculous scoring system (not uncommon for players to put up 70 points in any given week). The other 10 team league is a PPR league. The 6 team league, well let's just say I wanted a league where I didn't have to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

what is the fun in a 6 team league? everyone has a ton of sick players. where is the strategy in trying to decide between starting roddy white and miles austin? "scraping the bottom of the barrel" is the whole point of fantasy football, getting the guys that are great before they prove it. if anything, i go for larger leagues, ones in which everyone has to know their stuff to survive. i mean like 14+ leagues. thats where the waiver wire and trades really matter.
