Looks like it will be a while before I get to pick again. Liking my squad, but don't love it:
8.08A QB Eli Manning, NYG
10.06B QB Jay Cutler, CHI
1.03B RB Doug Martin, TB
5.01B RB DeMarco Murray, DAL
8.11B RB Rashard Mendenhall, ARI
13.03B RB Mark Ingram, NO
2.12B WR Vincent Jackson, TB
3.01B WR Victor Cruz, NYG
8.02C WR Emmanuel Sanders, PIT
11.10A WR Darrius Heyward-Bey, IND
7.01B TE Greg Olsen, CAR
9.10A TE Brandon Pettigrew, DET
12.10B DST San Francisco
14.10B PK Stephen Gostkowski, NE
5.09H, 10.04H, 16.04H, 18.04E
5.09H will be a WR...Desean Jackson will be the target most likely, but there's a couple others in that range I'd be OK with.
No clue on the others...at least one will be another WR. Had a thought to add Alex Smith, but his value doesn't fit a 10 or 16. The 18th will likely go to a kicker or dst.
the things I really took away from this league the last few years.....
the core of your team is your nuts and bolts.....I realize tha's the case in most, but there is always some stuff on the waiver wire and the flavor of the week that you can pick up for "depth".....think I have always ended up cycling through my WR 4-6 or whatever....TE2,'s etc....
with only HAVING to start 1 RB (although I like to do 2 if I can get guys that catch).....WR is a key position with double that many (2) required....but even more so, I think you have to be in the top tier at QB and TE....I think this is where you can keep yourself in the mix for most weekly matchups....every team is going to have a top 12 QB.....being in th eupper half of that can be an advantage.....and even more so at TE maybe this year.....hard to believe guys like Brady are available as late as they are....but they are.....I will probably only take one QB and one TE, but it may be earlier then I should, just to make sure I get a stud....and then as far as backup QB goes, I'll probably punt it and take a chance on hitting on a late WR flyer like Streater or somebody that "could" be a starter.....1 QB/TE/PK/DST and a bunch of flyers...a guy like Rueben Randle is worth more then a QB2...etc...a guy like Cutler will always be on the wiaver wire, so there is no need to draft him....I'm also gonna snag a stud DST and hopefully a kicker.....if it's between a guy like LaFell (who I'll probably never play) and say SF SEA or DEN DST, I'm probbaly going DST...
I watched these draft unfold and have pretty much decided I am going WR/WR at the turn.....and Welker will probably be one of them even though he is lasting into the 3rd.....he just won't be there at my third.....it's gonna look crazy early and I'll probably get laughed at, but it is hard manueving around from the turn slots.....
