Colby Suits steal of the draft.

Just did my big league draft last night. I had 7th pick in the 12 man league. I decided not to play the ADP game as much as I normally do and draft the guys that I believe in and want to watch/follow all season.

On paper, it looks okay. I just think guys like Rice, Cook, Palmer are going to have real breakout seasons. If I’m right on those guys, I’m in great shape. I like Odunze and reached for him because I think as the season goes on, he’s going to take over at least the WR2 spot in Chicago. I went QB early but that’s because I’m tired of not having Mahomes on my teams. A bench full of cuffs and possible RB1s in Dobbins/Brown. What you guys think?

QB: Mahomes (2nd round)
WR: Jefferson (1st round)
WR: Rice (3rd round)
RB: Cook (4th round)
RB: Ford (7th round)
TE: McBride (5th round)
FLEX: Odunze (6th round)
FLEX: Palmer (10th round)
K: Aubrey
DEF: Chicago
Bench: Wicks (only got 1 Packer)
Bench: Chase Brown
Bench: JK Dobbins
Bench: Jaylen Wright
Bench: Bucky Irving
Bench: CEH

Jefferson. ✅ 
Rice. ✅ 
Cook ✅ 
McBride ✅ 
Brown ✅ 

Proof that mikec is a spy. 

Now I need his team to be really good this season. Mental warfare was met with me running down the draft clock to soften you old men up.

I'm sorry but this guy is AI right? Who the hell are the Southeastern Lions? :lol:

Slightly OT but can anyone point me in the direction of a Fantasy football league that’s good for beginners?
(If it isn’t too late)

You can join any random ESPN or Yahoo one as they're free and no money is at stake. I would recc. PPR(Points Per Reception) if you can get it but either that or traditional is fine. 

Not fantasy football but we will do a PW Pick Em league here every year where each week, you pick winners of all matchups and at the end, we get mere bragging rights. It's a pure 18 week gauntlet, pretty fun.

We also do a PW Survivor Pool which again is free but basically you pick a team each week and if they win, you move on, if not you get 1 strike. 2 strikes=out. However, the team you pick cannot be picked again so you have to get smart and crafty and look at matchups. 

I assume we will have links up or setup for that via Yahoo, that probably will be posted in this thread if you're interested.

I've got a spot in a league if you'd like to join. Not strictly beginners but the competition level isn't crazy (and the best way to learn is just to start playing).

The draft is Monday at 8pm our time if that works well for you.

I’ll be working sadly, thank you for the invite.

Found one on Yahoo with a time that suits, main reason I want to get into the NFL more as it’s a sport I can watch when I’m not at work :lol:

I imagine the NFL early times are killer for you in AUS so don't go too crazy with the deep dive, I know the late(4PM EST/1PM PCT) and SNF/MNF games are tailor made for you though.

Yeah I just mainly watch the games that are on around the time Raw starts, mate at work loves Detroit Lions and suffers through the early wakes for them.

 Lions got some primetime games here though, he is eating good this year. 

Yeah I think you'll prob find a west coast side in that case, my guess are the Chiefs or 49ers(Though pduh likes them so idk, probably not).

System, as the Chief of the Red Kingdom, I extend an invite for you to join us on our road to the first ever 3Peat.

Good luck! I'm sure this time next year you will be running rings around most of the crew here. :lol:

Here's a Taylor Swift themed team for inspiration if you don't know who to pick at any point during your draft! 

sandylea joining the pickem and smoking everyone in Week 1 going 13-2 is fucking awesome.

Absolute beastly performance by Sandy. Holy shit the gauntlet has been set. 

Now watch me do horribly every other week 😉 hahahahaha
But damn, even I’m surprised at how well I did 😂

You hit us little rascals with the Darla. 

Take the instant waivers away please. Going to lose because I went with CMAC before he got pulled to be inactive, can't start anyone else. I did the right thing putting him at RB/WR/TE spot but can't use anyone else. Sucks.

Would have taken in Conklin just for this or something. 

EDIT: FALSE ALARM only applies for 30/32 teams. Rolling late game Tyler Conklin, can't be any worse than Kincaid. 

Rashee Rice saved my week. Been a bit of a mess of a roster but he’s come through each week as my most consistent guy.

rad update your team bro you had 4 outs this week

Blindy you no showed this week!!

Rain storm destroyed Rodgers & Garrett Wilson's production. Sirriani refusing to let Saquon Run and a down Josh Allen game means blowout. Shame, I put nearly 190 points the week prior.

With the CMAC news, this is just going to be a down year. Shit happens.

Of course you took Hunt from me too. 😠

I traded away:
Trey McBride
Jerome Ford

My new team:

WR: Odunze
WR: Wicks
WR: Whittington
RB: James Cook
RB: JK Dobbins
RB: Chase Brown
RB: Bucky Irving
RB: Tyler Goodson

Fuck it. Red Kingdom all the way.

Talked to Pete last night, he's right on the edge after copping you in that 190 week and then finally looking like he was going to get a win this week against Rad only to get stunned by Ken Walker. :lol:

Leper Messiah went off on the TNF game and with no Barkley/Singletary, I am really running on fumes at RB. Tracy and Swift...Maybe Mattison but I like Denver's run defense a lot. 

In true this season fashion, everyone has two strikes in the survival game by week 5

Cards/49ers ended about 10-15 minutes sooner than Giants/Seahawks so by default, I win. :ness:
