Figured we all (or whoever wants in) puts in 20$ each... no big deal, but it's something to take home and gives some "bragging rights"
Winner takes all.
Dont want to do more because it wouldve likely changed our strategies, plus it was meant to be free. So if anyone wants to do 20$, just for a laugh, Im very game.
We can do leaguesafe - or if we arent a bunch of scumbags, we can just paypal the $ to the winner at the end.

oof. Not a fan.Soulfly3 said:
I'm ok with Dalton as your QB but Hoyer was drafted way too early. RBs are horrible. Didn't seem like Richardson could ever get past the LOS last year. Indy better figure out a way to get him in the open or find some miracle injection to give him some moves and lateral movement. Mason needs to go to the right situation and who knows how much action he'll see. WRs are and should be great given the drafting...and Harvin needs to stay healthy. 2 TEs that haven't caught a pass in the NFL. Could things work out? Sure. But there seem to be too many pitfalls all over the place here.

If this were redraft, Id agree...Shadowfax said:
but in a best ball format, you can afford to draft like this and pick up best available points from whatever scrubs you want at positions.
I am in the camp where I seriously devalue RBs, I draft that way, and always do quite well.
eta: Hoyer was taken too early? I fully believe as a Browns fan he is their QB this season (and beyond?) and with the weapons at his disposal (and mroe to come) his numbers should figure to be quite good.
The way QBs ran off the board, I wouldve even taken hoyer a round or two earlier

We obviously have opposite drafting styles/opinions. It's an ok team but I'd really like it better if he didn't brainfart the Alex Smith/Wilson pick. As it is, QBs are below average. All WRs had career years and it's unrealistic to expect them to repeat those numbers. But they're all WR1s and will have to carry this team. RBs are TBD, as we need to see where they all land. I like the Rudolph pick but someone needs to explain the Ladarius love to me. Seems like they're using him to block and using more WR sets. Maybe that changes but Gates isn't going away. I can see the appeal in dynasty but redraft?

I think pretty solid. Only gross reach was maybe Donnie brown though even there not far off depending on landing/use.

I predrafted several guys on the MFL site (this one: http://www15.myfantasyleague.com/2014/home/72192#0). So if I come up overnight, feel free to check there and enter my pick in the thread. Otherwise, I'll enter it in the morning.

I was in a MFL10 last year where a guy timed out twice after making several rounds of timely picks. He came on and explained that he was a cop who had been shot in the line of duty (not life threatening). Don't know if it was true, but it sure shut up the people who had been complaining for him to go on autopick.

Seems to me getting a 2nd one that can score 6-8 times per year (and be bye week filler) could prevent you from taking an extra loss every week vs taking that 8th WR. We'll see.

If everyone does it, it doesn't hurt you. Only question is whether teams who accept risk of only getting one DST will be better off.
The first defense went off the board in the 9th. Everyone had at least 5 rounds to get two. Many chose not to. veni vedi vici.

yeah I didn't quite get that either....I guess we were supposed to wait until round 21 and then just rattle all 32 off in a row.....oh wait thats when kickers are supposed to go so DST would have been 19 through 20......nice and clean....

Oof. Hope there were a lot of apologies. While it's nice if these drafts have a steady stream of picks, I never understand all the #####ing about the timer. You sign up for a draft knowing everyone has 8 hours to pick. It's ~ 6 months away from the season. Just relax. With that said, I think a 6 hour clock would be the best.

I feel I lost my way with (and since) the Geno/Vick picks. I have high hopes for Folk this year so he better pan out. Like Charles and Morris but now concerned with KC losing 3 OL. Never really saw the value at RB since due to the flex and hoped to grab Latavius and Anderson (F you Ref) and one of the Saints backs. Good group of WRs but felt like I reached on a couple. TEs went way quicker than I thought. Ended up with 2 average ones and planned to grab a 3rd...but TEs kept going and going. Thought I could get Rivera late late and now will probably roll with the 2 and hope for the best. 2 historically good (but now aging) DST that hopefully can get me a decent score each week. Not great...but probably better than HellToupee.

Well, this is what I planned on when I passed on RB for so long. Rookie RBs look like value to me, especially a handful of them on one team. Very likely that 1-2 will be useless, but think it's pretty likely that 1-2 can give me mid-RB2 production.
With Gostkowski, I think I can play with 1 PK.

I don't like rookie WRs in redraft, but I already regret passing on Benjamin at 17.07. He is an ideal late-round WR in best ball.
