Cowboys might need  to hire a parole officer  

Unbelievable how 1 team can have so many idiots! That Jaylon Smith pick looks like a waste now with all their defensive starters getting suspended

Just starting thei mnd games early Welshy ☻

Yeah just when it all looks rosy. Not that i mind the cowboys being under the pump.

As am I Rev

I reckon if JJ Watt isnt right to go for the season start it will have a domino affect on the Texans playing style, both from the coaches and the defensive spirit.
Could go from a run based team to a 'long bomber' play from behind each week. Looking into it way to much, but could roll out this way.

More recetions for Nuk Hopkins then

They were always going to go with a pass-first offence this season. Miller isnt good enough to be the focal point of an offence and they drafted 2 WRs in the first 3 rounds to go with Nuk. Plus stealing signing Osweiler from Denver, who is known to have a cannon for an arm.

Miller will get 300+ rushes this year, severely underused by Miami

You reckon? He's good... and I rode him to glory in fantasy 2 years back... but Blue already gets 5-6 carries/game as backup. Miller wont get more then 12-14 touches per game - especially at Houston where they will be playing from behind a lot. He's not going to rack up lots of game-closing, clock-draining runs.

ED: Not that I dont think he's good enough... I just cant see Texans spending 17M on Osweiler, having Hopkins up their sleeve and drafting a WR in the 1st and 3rd and then turning around and not throwing the piss outta the ball.

Two drafted WR's cant be relied upon as a given. They arent all Amari cooper's.
I think Miller is gud enough, can see 15-20 carries a game. Surprised how much they paid for Osweiler also, looked ok but didn't keep manning out, but they had Paxton in their sights !

They spent a sack of money on Miller who actually turned down 7 mill+ a year so must be gaurenteed his touches only shady, AP and Martin earning more than Miller on average! Wager overs/unders on his rushes? 20 a game? Il go overs

Osweilers correct is stupid and shows how overvalued QBs with 'potential' can be! He was horrible against us and got pulled after the half! Half a Manning came in and won the game for the donkeys! Not saying he won't reach that potential but it's a massive gamble

And Jamaal. And Stewart. And Demarco + CJ are on more then him in season 2016.

You're going the overs on 320 carries (20 touches x 16 games) over the regular season? Only 6 active players have ever hit that (AP, Demarco, CJ2K, Foster, Jackson, Morris). Forte has never hit that mark. Shady, never. Gore, never. Marshawn Lynch even never hit that mark.

No way a team with a top 5 receiver runs the ball more then Lynch ever has in his career.

Bugger it. Wrong thread

only because his 2016 base is so low, getting money like that for a RB in this day and age is big! Wowsers didn't think it was that rare, should of just taken the bet il go over on 300 for total touches including receptions

drafted in a 12 team league last night, wowsers that is tough! have to really hit on your first 5 rounds because it thins out real quick!

we will be looking at 10 team max leagues, we want 24 ideally so get recruiting lads if your mates are keen can look at that to complete 3, 8 team leagues if we are struggling to fill!

So what is doing, have we worked out when we are drafting.

Too early to draft yet mate, too much chance for injuries with a month still left to go before the season starts!

We are currently on 19 entries is anyone abject to a few running 2 sides (in different leagues to get the required total)

Or does anyone have any mates outside the circle who want to get involved?

Anyone know the postage rates for uk to Aus/NZ I was going to get some trophies sorted for the league winners

Anyone around later for a mock?

Hi guys can you please let me know your NFL Fantasy experience level so I can sort leagues appropriately, I will update post as when the info is gained! 4 more places to reach the desired 24! Newbie, 1 year, 2 years+
