Hi > ChaseWhat was the emergency...was the good draft pick hedge fund manager short on ideas and needed an expert opinion prior to making any new trades?

agreed that was the worst QB run I've seen in one of these. With Eli as my #1 I still felt like I needed to grab one knowing that he stinks.

I just refused to participate. Couldn't justify drafting a QB in round 7 that may not even be a starter. This has to be the worst year ever for QB turmoil as half the jobs in the league have question marks.

I thought about him myself but took Watson over him just due to the more stable QB. I thought for sure Lhucks would have taken Watson or Crumpler with no TE and been happy with that but he must have that super sleeper out there.

WR - Burress, CalvinJ

Have at it folks.
But just remember, lots of you made fun of my squad in this very league last year - and I won it all.
In fact, I got more ##### in WSL than in any of the others (PDSL, BDSL, SSL, MBSL, etc) - and yet this is the one I won overall.

QB - just fine, Cutler has the job for sure, Is campbell healthy though? I thought he busted his knee capRB - Great value in LJ at 9, Turner should start somewhere, obviously if he stays in SD this is a busted pick. K.jones has value, he is coming off an ACL. The good news - detroit should run more, the bad news, I think his PPR value goes down without MartzWR - Burress is a solid #1 in this format, I think Clavin is still over rated by alot of peopleTE - Buddy Lee - solid value where you got himAs far as last year goes, I think early QB picks in round1 are more tolerable in WSL as opposed to other SSL, just not a strategy in these I follow.my squad:QB- Eli,AsmithRB- Willis,F.TaylorWR- Roy,Jennings,DjaxTE- Gates

As for your squad - overall I like it. I think you do need to beef up your RBs though.Through 8 rounds you only have 2 - which is okay. But when your 2nd one is Fred Taylor, you do have to wonder how much more he has in the tank.- Young talented RB waiting in the wings that people consider good enough to draft him in the 1st round in these. Check.- Wrong side of 30 (32 in a couple days). Check.- Wear and tear. (Over 2500 touches in 10 seasons.) Check.Again, I like the rest of your team. Shaping up very nicely. Gates is gold w/ 2ppr. D.Jax could be great value in the 8th round. But you will need a late round RB that outperforms his draft spot.

I almost went RB instead of ASmithI think F.Taylor represents excellent value where I got him and Jax isnt going to change how they run things, Taylor will get his carries.

He averaged just under 15 carries/game this year. He didn't even average 1 reception a game.If he was all they had, I could see that being tremendous value b/c he'd have to see at least 15-18 carries a game next year. But with MJD there, I see Taylor's carries (at his age) going to about 12-14/game.Was there much better available at the 5/6 turn? Probably not. So in that sense, it could be good.But b/c not much else is available at RB at the 5/6 turn, that is why I personally don't believe in waiting til then to secure a RB2.If he were to see 12-14 carries a game, but at least made up for it in other regards (receptions or TDs), that would be one thing. But he isn't the RB they dump the short passes to (MJD is w/ 40 receptions compared to 9), nor is he the TD man (9 for MJD compared to 5).The upside is limited.I see what you are saying about getting him at that draft spot, but I'd rather not wait that long to get a 2nd RB.I could end up eating all these words. But I think you need a 2nd RB earlier as the other positions are easier to fill in later.Again though, I like the rest of the squad. Talented and balanced.And if Eli really is finally coming into his own, 30 TDs is not out of the question for him next year.Top TE in the league.One of the stronger teams at WR so far.

shouldn't all these "look at my team", moo moo quack quack posts be in a separate thread?
makes it really hard for some to just review the picks and make one

thanks for the input.I agree with what you say about taylor. Him n MJD seem to work really well. his 5.4 ypc was very nice.

actually I think there has been less chatter than I expected in this draft.we can do a seperate thread if ya want, and we will post draft.But Im keeping the first post updated pretty well as far as draft tracking goes

Isn't that half the fun? Making fun of people's squads and such...watching people draft a backup TE before they draft all of their starting WRs...good times.

heh your not so subtle hints are amusing (i dont have any tes yet maybe I can shame peeps into not drafting any more and drafting some more qbs instead)

I'm old and I love the discussion. It easily trumps the difficulty to track picks. However if you bold your picks and nothing else that helps also.If the comments are moved to a spearate thread, they diminish and suffer from lack of participation.Just my opinion.

Still lots (seven) rosters with only one QB. Either they disagree or they are silently scrambling.
Iwannabeacowboybaby!
Footballguy
My take is this....I got a QB where I think he's going to be in the top 3 in fantasy production and spent a relatively high draft choice to get him. If someone would have fallen to me, I would take a 2nd QB. But I'm not going to take a QB because everyone in front of me took a QB so I should even though he probably won't out produce Tony Romo in any games other than his bye, and if he does not by many points.And even if I did choose a 2nd QB, you do give up something for doing that. Whether it be your 3rd RB or 3rd WR or don't take a TE till late, you give up some depth to starting position for a backup.
I usually have two Qb's by now but I don't. In fact this is the first time I've never had 2 QB's in the first 8 rounds, so I'm looking forward to seeing how this plays out. I actually took Joey Harrington either in round 19 or 20 in WSL last year, who would have thought he would have started the season as a starter.

then, since that was my other choice here - was hoping he might slide one more go-round. Nice pickup for you. Back to the drawing board.

Obvious problem with this in INJURIES HAPPEN. Only 12 QBs played all 16 games. Only 26 played 11 or more games and three of those were not considered starters in the off-season.
