Didn’t make it home in time to draft. Forgot the two qb thing. Blech. Oh well fun times ahead.

My big mistake last year was not adjusting my draft strategy enough for 2QBs so I made sure that wouldn't happen again. My RBs are looking really weak but I don't think you can be very confident about that position after the top 10.

I've actually ended up with a very similar result to last draft, on top of my four keepers I've got the starting Houston RB, flipped Royce Freeman for Phillip Lindsay, and got Darnold again. But adding Rodgers and Brady rather than Dak and rookie Josh Allen ought to raise my floor up significantly.

WhT?!

I thought the draft was next monday!

Holy shit. My teams sick!

I got BOTH Jacobs and Sanders?! That’s incredible.

FYI; only thing I don’t like is not grabbing Kyler Murray. I would’ve been all over him.

You’ll see him week one though.

I see that.... -_-

Interesting match up. You’re favored by 1.

Like my team this year, think i am safer with TE compared to last year. Really want to see one of the QBs step up.

I mean you’re a POS who has the top 3 picks on your team.

Barkley. CMC. Kamara. Not sure how it happened.

Hey I didn't take 4 RBs.

I won the consolation prize two playoffs ago to get Barkley, took McCaffrey in round 1 2 years ago after missing out on Leonard Fornette( :suspic: ) and I got Kamara in the FINAL ROUND of the 2017 draft(!). 

Hoping Singletary emerges as a stud with the old Gore and McCoy looming, fresh legs FTW in Buffalo.

Nah you did it right but you can’t win it all though.

I just did my first money league draft. It’s a 10 person .5 PPR Yahoo league with random people. Ended up getting the first pick and ended up putting together an amazing roster.

QB- Watson (4)
RB- Barkley (1)
RB- Gurley (3)
WR- AB (2)
WR- Jeffrey (8)
TE- Engram (7)
FLEX- Melvin Gordon (5)
K- Justin Tucker (10)
DEF- Chargers (12)
B- Tevin Coleman (6)
B- Kirk (9)
B- MVS (11)
B- Justice Hill (13)
B- Mattison (14)
B- Jimmy G (15)

I could’ve had Robert Woods or Chris Godwin as my WR2, but got excited and grabbed Watson knowing I was going to stash Melvin Gordon because he fell to me. Could’ve got Baker or Matt Ryan on my next go around but we ain’t psychics.

But honestly; my top 5 picks were making me so excited. I can’t believe I got Barkley, Gurley and Melvin. Sure, this could fail but I am walking out of the draft feeling like Blindy with massive RB potential.

You've gone for a lot of boom or bust picks there at the top. Brown, Gurley and Gordon are all risky but could pay off big time. I think you've got a lot of nice late round picks to cover it though, MVS, Justic Hill and Alex Mattison all look like bargains to me.

Good chance to make back some of that Colts money I think.

Damn you HR for the Darnold pick BTW. I have to root for Darnold to destroy the Bills when facing you for the 2nd or 3rd year in a row Week 1 in the keeper league.

I have Josh Allen who will strong arm our mediocre/unproven corners so of course I want him to do well but the Bills to lose. What a frustrating situation.

I just did my big money league draft and I am so disappointed. I had 11th pick out of 12 which was a bad place to pick. I am not happy. Someone help me off the ledge. @admin Blindy anyone?!


QB- Mayfield
RB- Jacobs
RB- Melvin
WR- Adams
WR- OBJ
FLEX- Singletary
FLEX- Anthony Miller
K- Tucker
D- Bears
B- Deebo Samuel
B- Darwin Thompson
B- Justice Hill
B- Mattison
B- Malcolm Brown
B- Philip Rivers

Yahoo has me projected to finish last. This is my worst draft ever. I’m just hoping my lottery pick handcuffs pay off.

I'm always scared of rookie RBs due to the tight leash coaches have on them so while I like Singletary, I'd be scared of him and Jacobs together. If Gordon comes back, cool but I don't know if he comes back anytime soon otherwise your backs may Doom you. Otherwise I think you're fine but it's the RBs that are boom or bust.

I had Fournette and CMC as rookies and that worked out well.

Both were top ten picks so they would be given leeway day 2 or not as high invested picks would.

True but I want to be talked off the ledge not made to jump off lol.

Yeah I really don't like the Raiders at all so I'd be steering clear of AB and Josh Jacobs.

I just finished my second league draft. Hopefully things go a bit better this season than last when I had Lev Bell and Jerrick McKinnon first and second...

QB - Jackson, Brees
RB - CMC, Henry, Michel, Duke Johnson, Justice Hill
WR - OBJ, Mike Williams, Gordon, MVS, Green
TE - Ertz, Herndon
K - Crosby
DEF - Pats

Wow. CMC, OBJ and Ertz is a hell of a trio. I’m not fond of Henry but Sony should have a great year. Your WRs are stellar. Mike Williams is going to blow up this season. MVS could be Rodgers #2 WR which is always great. Lmao brings rushing and passing to the game. I love it.

Yeah, I'm feeling good about it. I had the fifth pick which I thought was going to be a bit problematic but the guy above me took Mahomes so I was very pleased to have CMC fall to me. 

Agreed about Derrick Henry. I'm not sure he'll ever be consistent enough to be a reliable fantasy player but it's hard to ignore what he did down the stretch last season. I feel like I managed to get enough depth to cover it, plus it's a 2RB, 2WR, 2FLEX league so I may end up playing 4WR when AJ Green is back.

Yeah man, 5th pick for CMC is insane. I was wondering if someone was going to reach for Bell in my league since its a mix of Giants fans and Jets fans, but he ended up going 6th behind the Big 4 and David Johnson. But that high for Mahomes is just stupid. I’m curious whohis next two picks were if you don’t mind sharing.

Mahomes went 3rd in my league to the 1.08 guy who went Chubb, Cheetah and Mahomes. My league has 5 teams with QBstacks.

The aforementioned Mahomes/Hill, Watson/Hopkins, Goff/Kupp, Winston/Evans and of course my Baker/OBJ.

I’m so fantasy stressed out because of my team and it’s not even Week 1 yet. Singletary (my RB2 by default) is in a man RBBC. Melvin still holding out. Josh Jacobs is my only legit starter and I’m sure he won’t be involved in the passing game. I’m really banking on Adams and my two Browns. At least until one of my handcuffs bench players pay off.

Wound in a place with no service last night during my work draft, my auto draft was ok except somehow it waited until the third from last pick of the draft to take my QB. It took Carr, who blows, so I took a flier on Josh Allen hoping for some rushing yards.

It’s taken me forever to know who Kid means when he says CMC, so having McCaffrey on my team should help.

George Kittle and Aaron Jones. 

Yuck.

Mahomes was also the fourth pick in my fantasy draft, but it’s a work league and no idea if this guy has ever played before.

I wish I had time to @admin but I am busy with the kid. Way too busy to actually draft.
