Looks like most had similar strategies... I went the same route and didn't pick any players from those teams that I believed would not win their WC game. I thought Jets/Cowboys/Cards/Patriots would win WC games. Seemed most everyone thinks the Pack will win and I'm hoping the Cards can pull it out.
After picking players from the WC winners, I then went with the teams I felt most likely to be in the SB of the remaining teams... I think the AFC is going to be represented by Jets or NE and in the NFC, I like Dallas or Saints and I went biggest with Cowboys.
I'm hoping that I can get by the early rounds and have a chance at the end. I don't know if you can just go with SB winners and plan on "squeaking" by the early rounds... Have to get to the finals to have a chance.

New sim gives my 100% chance to advance at 974 overall.
While I wanted so badly to "stack" players from SD and either GB/MIN I found I could not possible do it and expect to make it out of the first or second rounds. Hoping I have enough with GB/MIN or even ARI/DAL to sneak in if they all score BIG.
Great contest and lots of strategy. Last minute changes R Bush from Sproles and B Watson from Heap. Not sure why I did the last one now?
Edit: Gosh looking it over - I don't think I'll have enough left at 0 point positions...

Just a warning. The sim appears to be buggy.
I will try to fix it before game time, but no guarantees.

Yeah. Was counting three players per team instead of two

I still think that estimated cut line's a little higher than it will probably end up, but we'll see.

This one actually looks worse than your original. If I somehow manage to slide by on this first week I'll feel better about my chances--but starting from 0.0% the odds are long....
I really like this team. I had something nearly identical submitted at one point and felt it was just a tad to risky. Now it looks like a team moving on and one that has me covered. Looks like 2nd place is the best that I can do.
Obviously it's early, but the guys loading up on week 2 players and adding Greene, Jones, and Romo.

I tried to make SD vs MIN work...my last move was to put in LT for Watson and Cundiff. I may have left round 1 too thin though...only a 47.4% chance to survive per the simulator. A TD catch from Doucet would help a lot!

Very nicely done... this crushes my SD/Minn built team if you make it past this week.
You think it's moving up? Brady, Moss, Edelman, Flacco, Mason and Heap teams are not getting any production. The Pat's are going to have to throw so they should end up putting up numbers before everything is said and done but those of us, me included, who need members of the Ravens passing game to produce to advance might be in for a huge letdown.

Looks like my Ray Rice plus NO Patriots strategy may work out. Assuming Harbaugh figures out how to use the red flag. Moron.

Interesting I have A 20% chance of making but have 66 points with a 1 1/2 quarters of R Rice and Edelman then Rogers and Driver. I like my chances to get another 40+ points with those 4. If I squeak by this week I like my chances with 17 players next week (assuming a GB win).Doug Drinen said:

So, if I have 45.10 points so far, and have Rodgers, Grant, and Breaston still to play, do I have a chance in hell of advancing?

Eat my dust, 5681 of you. Ray Rice and the Pats PK were the only ones I had going in this game.
My team has a 56% chance of making it though this week. I really didn't expect this much trouble getting through Week 1.
Ok, so this is just a rant, but bear with me.
It's teams like this that drive me nuts: 100865

Ryan Grant $17 0.00
Greg Jennings $16 0.00
Donovan McNabb $23 0.00
DeSean Jackson $19 0.00
Jeremy Maclin $11 0.00
They spent the majority of their money($204) on NFC WC teams.
Sure this strategy will get you through week 1. In subsequent weeks they will have atleast$102 in wasted roster space, not to mention at most 6 scoring players.
Best case scenario, they somehow make it to the SB, but will undoubtedly be out-gunned.
Why even bother. Seriously!
ok rant off.

Bad entries should encourage you. Don't understand teh need to rant on the team
Here is what did. I didn't want to waste a roster space for a player that will not get points until the last week. I feel if I can get past this week I should have a solid shot of making it through the divisionals. My only concern would be the superbowl having 4 total players going.

I thought it would be a SD-MIN SB, but didn't want to pick a whole bunch of players from 1 team that wouldn't count until the end. I was thinking more about scoring through the first weeks, but having enough at the end to score some points. WR through the season fluctuated so much I didn't want to rely on a few WRs, instead wanted a more reliable scoring group. TE's also factored in with the 1.5 PPR. I chose the DAL players mainly going with a hot team.
