the rookies are starting to be picked now
Why are the rookies being taken so late in the AFC ? 1st rookie at pick 76, 2nd rookie at 84 ?

Randall not having the best draft.

16 Brees

17 Vincent Jackson

33 Reggie Wayne

64 Ballard

96 D-Richardson

97 Lattimore
Guess your seeing the differences in mind sets, one league valued vets over the top rookies while other took more of a gamble. Personally in startups I rather take solid vets over the rooks who always seem overvalued. Looks at guys like Floyd and Jeffery; not even drafted yet and I bet they were take super high last yr!!!

As for Randell, he always seems to have a total different value set than everybody but I really love how Doom is handling this draft :banned: .

2 Team IDP Graduated PPR (1/1.25/1.5). Started on April 30th

http://football8.myfantasyleague.com/2013/options?L=62891&O=17

Through round 4 I have Richardson (1.5), David Wilson (2.8), Drew Brees (3.7), and Ryan Matthews (4.8). :thumbup:
Lots of name dropping going on in the comments during that draft. Everyone is ok with that?
Doesn't really bother me. If anyone needs hints to remember Tom Brady, Matt Ryan, or Greg Jennings, I am not sure that they belong in the league. Those were the only 3 notables I noticed.

 
This one started Saturday morning, into the 11th round already. My team is Dead Souls, pretty happy with my team so far.

http://football20.myfantasyleague.com/2013/options?L=60002&O=17
Damn good job. :goodposting:
Agreed. The only obvious misstep I see so far was taking Gates over Martellus Bennett, Fred Davis, and maybe Housler and Dwayne Allen. And possibly a couple of the rookies, depending on how washed up you think Gates is. But they'll be available later.

I didn't like the Stewart pick with Patterson, Hopkins and Rudolph still on the board. I would have skipped TE after Rudolph and focused on acquiring as many #1 type receivers as I could (Hunter, Hill, Quick, Randle). I would have grabbed Gonzo late if I had to.Overall, great draft.

The Dynasty King startups have begun, which is a contest-style dynasty league that FFToolBox is running. There are 12 startups going on right now, it's a PPR league with 1/2/3/1/1 + 2 Flex.

This is my league, I'm Embargo, and I hate my team with a passion:

http://football.myfantasyleague.com/2013/options?L=63229&O=17

If you're looking for more data, here are all of the other startup drafts, though I think my league has gone the fastest:

http://football.myfantasyleague.com/2013/index?YEAR=2013&SEARCH=DFWC

 
One thing I have noticed in browsing through some of the drafts in this thread is that the rookie RBs seem to really be pushed up while the rookie WRs really fall. Almost every draft, the rookie RBs start flying off the board in the 3rd and 4th. Tavon seems to be going in the 5th and guys like Patterson and Hopkins are going round 7 or so.

In most of the rookie drafts, Tavon is going at least in the top 3 and often ahead of the top RBs and Hopkins/Patterson seem to have a very similar rookie draft ADP to guys like Lacy, Ball and Bell.

In short, the top WRs and top RBs pretty equal rookie draft ADP, but RBs much higher in startup ADP, which is weird because these drafts are happening at the same time.

Lots of possible explanations, but I do think positional scarcity of RB is more obvious when you are doing a startup. It also shows how crazy deep WR is right now. The veteran WRs in the round 3 to 7 range are so much stronger than the veteran RBs left on the board once you get into round 3 or 4...

 
Draft concluded. 1 PPR all positions, start 1-2-3-1-1-1 and 2 flex RWT.

http://football16.myfantasyleague.com/2013/options?L=54428&O=17
I'm curious what folks think of the Follow Me team after 2013. I ask because I think it is terribly composed for the long haul, full of old guys. They also traded down multiple times to get a bunch of decent non-core players, and I don't think they got worthwhile value in doing so.

Again, it's 1 PPR all positions, start 1-2-3-1-1-1 and 2 flex RWT.

My team (Fighting Couch Potatoes) traded 1st and 3rd round rookie picks for their 1st round rookie pick in both 2015 and 2016 because we see this roster in decline in 2014 and worse in 2015. We think giving up the 3rds will be a cheap cost if we can move from 9th-12th to 1st-4th in the 1st rounds of those drafts.

Any thoughts on their draft?

that's an awful team, no elite young talent.

 
I don't have an issue with the age of some of their players, but if they were going to do that they shouldn't have taken so many rookies and 2 year players. It's ok to go all-in for 1-3 years and then rebuild, but you need to build your team right to pull it off. Looks like this guy is going to barely squeak into the playoffs for 2 years and then have a hell of a time rebuilding since he won't have any picks. Not going to be fun.

I like your team, but don't get the Stafford pick at 8.01. I would have rather seen you grab another WR at that point since you are required to start 3 but up to 5. I'd be nervous about having Hunter/Quick as my 4th/5th WRs. I think Hopkins and MWilliams are decent options there and you can grab a QB like Manuel, Cutler, etc later. Great looking team though, should do some damage as long as injuries don't deplete your WRs.

We wanted two top-10 dyn QBs and because we pick back-to-back at the turn, that's when we felt we had to get both QBs unless we wanted to go old. Stafford I have at #7 and Wilson #9.

I didn't mean to get the thread off track and make it about my team, but my team mate and I were happy. We recognize we are thin at the flex spot -- drafting 11 of 22 position players who are 1st and 2nd year players will do that to you -- but the draft is a starting point, and getting young talent with upside puts us in position for better trades should we choose to do that, or just ride out the 1st year and let the kids grow into their production in the coming years.

Another point about the Follow Me team. He began with the 1.01 and had his choice of anyone, yet kept trading down until 3.01 to make his 1st pick. I thought I understood his strategy and that it might be OK until he started taking so many guys with 1-3 productive years left instead of a healthy mix of age and sure fire youth. In a league that requires starting 2 RB minimum, I don't know how he survives with only MJD and SJax as viable RB starters. And due to age of most of his best players, his trade ammo is pretty weak. To me this was a lesson in how NOT to draft a dynasty team, and he'll feel the pain soon enough. I'm thrilled to have his 2015 and 2016 1st rounders. And he won't bail on the league either since advance payment of those future league dues was required to trade the picks, and we both have made those payments.

That team Follow Me is Mark Moyer's a high stakes fantasy player so I am guessing at $100 a season he really doesn't care much about that league or he is just trying to win now or maybe it is his 1st ever dynasty league. I didn't even know he played dynasty all I have ever seen him play was draft master type leagues where you just draft and your done with your team for the season. Trading out to 2016 seems a bit much I used to have leagues like that but I cut it down to 2 years max for future picks.

 
It was interesting to follow Follow Me's draft. He made 11 trades during the 24 round draft, with all but one involving picks in this draft (the other being one of our swaps of future first rounders). I've never seen anyone do so much trading in a startup.

But the use of those picks seemed curious at best. Only 2 starting RBs, both old enough that they should fade quickly. Taking Hernandez, Witten, and Gonzalez suggests using TEs in both flex spots on a regular basis, at least as long as Gonzalez is playing (and playing well). Taking Steve Smith and Gonzalez at the 9/10 turn really cemented the age issue on the roster. Interestingly, those two picks were originally our picks, and we would not have considered either of those guys had we kept them.

Anyway, it was definitely a unique approach. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Compared to the startups I have been in 2010-2012 that wasn't much trading really. In 1 of my leagues last year I made 25 trades and in other I made 20 trades and that is only during the draft or right before it started.

Did you ever trade completely out of the first two rounds? If so, how did your strategy differ from Follow Me's here?

I thought about trading out of the 1st 2 rounds and loading up on 3rd/4th/5th round start up picks but never did that just kept trading to improve overall position.

 
all these leagues taking TRich at 1.01, I get hes only 21 but he had 2 minor knee ops last off-season; anyone worried about that? I Find it hard to not take Calvin at 1.01 in PPR
Totally agreed. I wouldn't consider anyone but Calvin at 1.01 in PPR, and I actually have Doug Martin as -clear- #1 RB in all formats (and would take him #1 in everything except PPR dynasty). T-Rich is my #5 RB and seems consistently #1. Boggles my mind that I seem to differ from consensus so much on RB rankings.

What was the full trade down with your 2nd rounder? I LOVE the Spiller/Wilson picks, and VJax is solid for the next several years as your WR1.

16 team league and your starting 8 RB/WR/TE ? That seems crazy that would mean a total of 128 starting RB/WR/TE's most leagues start 7 x 12 = 84 total.

Shocked to see how high the rookies are going most people felt those rookie picks would not be worth much this year.
I agree on both counts. That's a crazy number of starters but it should make it kind of interesting...or at least different. I'm in enough 'standard' leagues already. And I am also shocked at where these rookies are going. Austin, Hopkins and Patterson before guys like Roddy White, Vincent Jackson, Decker, Bowe, Britt. And Bernard and Ball before Chris Johnson and MJD, or even Bush. I guess you could make a case for a couple of the picks, but come on....a couple of those guys are total crapshoots while there are still studs available..

 
started today - 16 team, 1 PPR, 4pt passing TD - 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1DEF, 2 flex (RB, WR, TE)

16 team league and your starting 8 RB/WR/TE ? That seems crazy that would mean a total of 128 starting RB/WR/TE's most leagues start 7 x 12 = 84 total.

Shocked to see how high the rookies are going most people felt those rookie picks would not be worth much this year.

I made my 12 team dynasty league I stated in 2010 with the same 2 RB/3 WR/1 TE + 2 Flex (1.25 TE PPR) and I love that format...I love it for 12 teams I don't think I would like it much for 16 teams especially with 1 PPR for TE. I think you should boost your TE to 1.5 to give you extra players to start...having to start 2 RB's in 16 teamer means RBs will be way overvalued while just having 16 teams is going to make QBs super valuable already.

As far as the rookies I took Patterson at 1.6 in a draft this year and I am pretty sure I wouldn't be able to trade him for a lot of the players taken after him.
