Fantasy Football

debaserr · 10-10-2012, 10:32 PM

My new team thanks to my trade of Roethlisberger and B Lloyd for Gore. I just need Gronk to pick up his play a bit and everyone to stay healthy.

My bench also has some good potential on it (if any of it pans out, I will try to use it to upgrade my starters via trade), Jones has been playing like a #1-2 receiver since Jennings has been hurt, and I have a number of #2 RBs that are waiting to fill in for an injured player. Plus, let's not forget TEBOW TIME.

PS: My kicker / D is NE.

TEs in general have been disappointing this year. I'm glad I picked up Daniels; he's looking like one of the better TEs in the league so far. How high did you take Gronk?

Like 15-20 range.

^ I could never really get into any fantasy sports besides fantasy football. I play fantasy hockey because I'm such a huge hockey fan but I just don't like basketball enough (even though I do still like it) to try to keep track of all of the different categories and keep track of my roster every day.Fantasy football has that sweet blend of a solid point system that covers all positions and only having to worry about setting your roster once.

My 7 game winning streak is going to come to an end unless Foster does something crazy and Miller gets shut down tomorrow.

I really need to do something about my D. I've got 46 total points from my defense in 10 weeks this year and only have 1 performance that I'd consider "strong" (12 points). When I see some defenses putting up over 20 points in a week, I really feel like I'm missing out. Originally I started with the Lions, then started rolling with the Cardinals, and finally have had the Dolphins the last 2 weeks (who have been terrible). Not sure where I should go from here.

Finished in 2nd for my regular season, with a 10-4 record and the most points scored. Didn't score less than 86 points all season, and that was in the first week. Since then I've been at least top 5 for points every week, as well as finishing with the top two weekly scoring performances of the season. I was able to trade Foster straight-up for Peterson and haven't looked back.

In the first round I'm up against a guy whose team has been on a huge streak though. He's got a ridiculous receiving core of Calvin Johnson, Andre Johnson and Vincent Jackson, as well as RG3. I'm currently rolling with:

QB - Matthew Stafford
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Doug Martin
RB/WR - Trent Richardson
WR - AJ Green
WR - Randall Cobb
TE - Owen Daniels
K - Stephen Gostkowski
DEF - Jets (waiver claim to pick up the Lions though)

QB - Eli Manning
RB - Michael Turner
RB - Jonathan Dwyer
WR - Miles Austin
WR - Larry Fitzgerald
TE - Heath Miller

I finished the regular season in 1st and had a bye. I've been RBU all season. The dude I'm playing next week has a nice ass team though, so I'm a little nervous.

^ How the hell did you get that good of a team??

Bane of your existence · 12-12-2012, 08:13 PM

My league sucks. They're my friends but they don't know **** about football. I picked up Steven Ridley, RGIII, Alfred Morris, and CJ Spiller after the draft as soon as they started to do well. There's also only 8 people so the draft doesn't go as deep as most leagues.
