NFL FANTASY III

luckynumber8 wrote:Honestly, I don't know half the players in the league. Anyone care to give my draft a rating out of 10?

draft analysis are up now - although I see some issues with the sims with some of the projected points for the rookies and injury affected players (like Kareem Hunt) as the projections don't take these into account - anyways....

Franks Underwoods:

QB - Brady
RB - L. Miller / K. Hunt / Abdullah / Kelley / J. Hill
WR - J. Jones / G. Tate / Landry / Decker / Lockett / Wallace
TE - K. Rudolph
K - Gostkowski
D - Seattle

Brady was about the only true snipe of the draft for me it looks like. As in the immediate pick before mine being taken. Other players I would have liked but not truly sniped from getting. I feel like Julio is going to go gangbusters this year so hopefully he stays on the park

QB - Mariota
RB - Lynch, Gordon, Powell, Blount, Forte
WR - D. Thomas, M.Thomas, Jackson, Matthews
TE - Walker, Doyle
K - Bailey
Def - Panthers

Overall Rating - Meh nfi/That'll do pig

QB - Brees, Carr
RB - Bell, Gurley, McFadden, West
WR - Jeffery, Watkins, Benjamin, Marshall, Moncrief
TE - Gronkowski, Ebron
DEF - Jaguars
K - Vinatieri

Going to look at waivers for Defense I think. Happy with at least 1 of every position which is a good start. Feel like I lucked in getting Gronk R4, although it meant skipping a top WR for that round. Watkins is a risk but I think it's a gamble worth taking. Getting Carr as a backup so late was a bonus. He did well for me last year behind Rodgers so will see what role he plays in my team this season. Plus I think Brees puts up good numbers for being in a mediocre team.

WITH TOP-TIER EXPECTATIONS, CANTERBURY CHARIZARDS STOCKPILES RBS

Draft GradeA-
Proj Record10-3
Proj Finish2

DRAFT SUMMARY

Along with a solid draft position,, Canterbury Charizards had an outstanding performance. They didn't overload at any one position early on, instead focusing on balance by drafting a quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end within their first five picks. By the end of the draft, Canterbury Charizards landed the highest-scoring quartet of running backs in the league.

Canterbury Charizards adhered to fantasy tradition, selecting a pair of running backs with their first two picks (Le'Veon Bell and Todd Gurley).Other NFL.com drafters felt that choosing Darren McFadden in the 10th round was somewhat of a stretch (99th overall pick versus an ADP of 144.0).The other league managers may have passed over a diamond in the rough, as Derek Carr dropped to the 119th overall pick versus an ADP of 92.0.

Where do I find these draft analysis?

Go to your leagues main page....the one with the scoreboard and table and click on one of the tabs up the top that says Draft Recap.

Found mine. It's not pretty.

Good stuff Dogg. Julio is my fave WR. Fantasy and fan perspective. Some say they think the falcons might regress this season as they have been offensively flying for a couple seasons now. But with Jones and Gabriel plus Freeman and Coleman a couple of them will be hard to slow down. Esp Jones being a freak talent.

@Shanbon - you mean it takes to long for the 'turn' to come back around to the next guy?

Gronk in Rd 4 ? Damn. Im sure he went in the 2nd in ours.

Well if you really want Brady that much, I'll be happy to take Bell of your hands!

He was ultra tempting as my r3 pick. I don't think I've ever drafted every major position in the first 5 rounds before lol that was the surprising stat from my recap.

What's your team of choice Rev?

Nah it was just the Brady/Gronk combo that was tempting at the time lol thanks though

Fucking shit. I was all over this forum today and totally forgot about the draft. Whoops.

how did your draft recap go?

Doesn't look that bad. and you've got DJ anyway, so you're probably predicted to take out the league.

You had me at rubber band mate....

Yippee Ki Ajayi Mo' Fuckers
Grade - B
Proj Record - 6-7
Proj Finish - 5th.

DRAFT SUMMARY
Picking ninth overall in the opening round, Yippee Ki Ajayi Mo' Fuckers had a decent showing and put together a team that will possibly lead to a postseason berth. They went all-in on running backs early, using their first three selections to add players at that position. At another spot in the lineup, Yippee Ki Ajayi Mo' Fuckers was able to secure a quartet of wide receivers with plenty of room to grow.
According to ADP, it was a bit of a reach selecting Keenan Allen in the 4th round (32nd overall pick versus an ADP of 69.0 across all NFL.com leagues).

Keenan Allen 69 ADP? Hmmm. If you say so. I was happy to get him at the turn of 4th-5th. It also recommends I pick Edelman up from the wire so take it all with a grain of salt.

Strengths -
Brandon McManus is projected to be the fourth-best K in the league.

Thats it. Using the plural of "strengths" was a bit superfluous.

The best thing they could say about my team was that my kicker is the 4th best. :lol: what a pack of superstars I have.

Trading block is open for business
