Depending on the scoring, Megatron can carry your team...and if Peyton Manning returns to his old self. I had the law firm either last year or the year before, he wasn't that great. I thought Lynch was supposed to be good though? Stevie Johnson is a decent option, he's good for a couple of 100-yd games.

Matty, funny I am just now finding this post of yours, but I had my draft last night and my team looks similar to yours.

QB P.Manning, B Roethlisberger
RB Lynch, Mathews, McGahee R. Jennings, Deangelo Williams, S. Ridley
WR Megatron, A.J Green, Garcon, Kendall Wright
TE Hernandez
K M. Bryant
D Packers

Deep at RB, but that's because Ryan Mathews is a keeper and probably won't play until week 3. I was excited to get Rashard Jennings late because even if and when MJD comes back, I may have Mathews by then. I was surprised the guy that had MJD didn't grab Jennings early. Kind of like the Ben Tate, Foster handcuff.

Your top 3 receivers are SOLID, and will all but up consisten numbers. I could see all three guys in the top 7-8 this year. Your RBs are pretty weak. I personally dont beleive in having backup TEs or QBs. I'm pretty sure Manning is going to be great and Palmer will be very good. If you end up needing help at RB, a few weeks into the season you may be able to trade Manning (if you were so inclined) for a stud RB. Still, youre roster is built to roll with 3 WRs per week, and Green-Ellis and Lynch are both very good. You just need to hope Lynch wont get suspended.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread

My pay league draft, 12 teams, Starts: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex (TE,WR,RB), Def, K. 15 rounds, $80 enter fee.. No PPR.

I drafted at 9 in a snake:

QB: Schaub
RB: McFadden, Sproles, Ridley, Gerhart, Hardesty
WR: Fitzgerald, Brandon Marshall, Antonio Brown, Nate Washinton, Little
TE: Finely, Celek
Def: Philly
K: Keading

At the 9 slot in the draft was satisfied with the result. No Back up QB is a lil issue, but Alex Smith, Fitzpatrick, Ponder, Locker and others werent drafted so dont feel so bad. Little worried bout RB with McFadden, but he's had a monster preseason and looks 100%.

I plan on flexing Ridley and Antonio Brown depending on match up.

Re: Fantasy Football 2012 Thread

Ok, I guess I should ask for drafting advice for my money league as well since I came in dead last in my 12 team keeper league last year. The draft is Monday afternoon. And I pre-apologize for the megapost.

Here are the basics: 6 points for passing touchdowns, pretty standard scoring otherwise, no PPR, the league is for $100 and money has been tight lately so I don't want to completely waste it, and finally, I guess they only guys of note being kept are McFadden and Murray. I have the 4th pick this year. Also, my only keeper is Cutler (probably a backup but I think he might be okay this year) for an 11th rounder out of 15.

On one hand I think I should go with Rodgers/Brady/Brees since its 6pts for passing TDs. On the other hand I took Rodgers with the 5th pick last year and ended up with flaming turds for RBs and subsequently ended up in last place.

So -take Rodgers and pray that someone like Jamaal Charles/Stephen Jackson/Adrian Peterson is still around in the 2nd? Or, should I take Foster, Rice, or McCoy if they're available* and then try to get someone like Rivers or Ryan in say the 3rd?

*One other thing - even though QBs dominate our league point-wise most of the other owners don't take them as early as you might think.

It's a two player keeper league. Mine were Brees and McCoy. My first pick was A. Johnson.
