2014 Interboard Challenge League (2 Viewers)
- Thread starter renesauz
- Start date
RB is the place of value per Dodds. Ellington is an option, but keep in mind his playoff schedule stinks. It's hard to move RBs in this league for WRs during the regular season.
If you end up taking Sanders, I'd suggest budgeting a place for Lattimer.

You should be good to go with Spiller this year. Afters years of drafting him only for him to disappoint, I don't think I have him on any rosters this year.
hey...so how do we want to do this...?....are you good to go until the weekend, meaning you will make your picks through tomorrow.....and then we step in on Saturday....?.....or if you are going to be touch and go through the weekend, how long do you want us to wait before pulling the trigger on a pick...OldMilwaukee said:
thanks for the heads up ref. I thought I made a lateral draft move and not a move up in days.
think I'll be going wr/wr here
wright - smith - wallace
almost hope he picks 1 of them - so I don't have to choose

Looking at Sanders, Colston, or Wayne here at 5.05D. Probably going Sanders for the upside and hope one of the other two are there on the way back. If not I might look at QB at 6.08. I'm also happy to trade it if an FBG wants a guy here. Alfred Morris, Zac Stacy or Toby Gerhart are enticing here but I probably shouldn't take RB3 here before WR2

imo from experience in these ......qb2 is unnecessary
only issue is if your guy gets hurt before season since no waivers until after week 1.....but maybe a FBG teammate has 2 so you can trade
otherwise you are better off using that pick on depth or someone who could go off if injury hits to the guy in front of them....or a gut call...a keenan allen....whatever....
you can ALWAYS get a starter in these leagues on waivers....its basically a cycling of qb's 13-32 the whole year......roll the dice on a gut call and don't waste a pick on qb2.....like above...the pick of Tannehill was a waste as the 13th player taken on his roster....better off swinging for the fences on somebody there IMO...
i would have rather seen a top DST or PK there if available...let alone a high upside guy...
just my two cents....sorry

mark my words Tanny will be on waivers this year....probably from day one....
broncos....curious about your Bowe pick at 4.11.....not that it is a bad pick....it's just a little sooner than I have seen him go....especially in front of some of the guys still on the board.....your thoughts?
and man.. I welcomed in the start of the preseason a little too hard last night and vaguely remember typing some of the stuff in here....take it FWIW....

That makes a 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th round selection for Bowe thus far. Definitely divided opinions.broncos....curious about your Bowe pick at 4.11.....not that it is a bad pick....it's just a little sooner than I have seen him go....especially in front of some of the guys still on the board.....your thoughts?

Never liked the player but he seems motivated this season. I might take him as a WR3 if the price is right.That makes a 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th round selection for Bowe thus far.

I'm pretty neutral towards this. I tend to agree if you manage a solid QB1, but would prefer two guys with upside if going below the top 8 or so.
Tannehill was his preference, and I took a top defense for him just a few picks later
My thoughts too. I like him as a WR3 or 4 in the 7th or so.Never liked the player but he seems motivated this season.

the other reason I would rather stash a swing for the fences guy or backup who could be fantasy worthy should the starter go down, is because it can be virtually impossible to acquire that guy if he does break out.....if you don't have him on your roster already you probably ain't gonna get him.....unless your team really sucks and your waiver priority is very high....there are going to be versions of the Tannehills of the world on the waiver wire every week....

I would have rather seen any of these guys taken with his 13th pick.......and I didn't even post WR's or TE's....his QB is Stafford....it's not like he hadn't drafted one yet or something...
and Rene....I'm not dogging you for making the pick.....I'm actually just kind of disagreeing with the philosophy that had Tanny on his "wish list" to begin with......this mindset is specific to this league.....not your normal redraft leagues......as a board (team) I think we need to maximize every roster spot and if you use a fairly high pick on a QB (which he did with Stafford in the 5th).....I really see no need to draft a second.....now if you wait and wait and wait......and are maybe going to do a QBBC where you are ok with doing the "who do I start" dance each week....then yeah.....maybe two guys......maybe....but in this situation IMO it was a wasted pick because Stafford is going to start for him except for week 9....or unless he does get hurt....then at that point you go and pick up one of the 6-8 versions of Tanny that will probably be available....

I do like Bowe in redraft, bit this was an error. I was looking at him and added him to my pre-draft and then realized I could probably have him a round or two later. Thought I had removed him from my pre-draft but guess I didn't. Not opposed to having him, but disappointed I didn't move him back at least a round.broncos....curious about your Bowe pick at 4.11.....not that it is a bad pick....it's just a little sooner than I have seen him go....especially in front of some of the guys still on the board.....your thoughts?

Alex Smith went undrafted in C so there will already be a version of him available......
and when waivers open and everybody is jumping on the hot pick ups, owners who drafted 2 QB's will start realizing they can get guys like that on the waiver wire.....and guess who the first guy is many of them will end up dropping......yep, their QB2....which puts even more of them on the waiver wire as the season moves on....

Who do that have to compete with for touches?
Hope to pair up the two for a bonafide WR2.
Now for a tight end......

Still need a QB, with a slight preference for Foles at 5.09D (gone in D) over Luck (available in both)
None of the TEs (Olsen, Reed) or Rbs (Jennings, Vereen) offer much advantage over what I have (Witten, A. Foster, Miller) IMO

Had to take him at 5.10F. Liked a few other backs available as well but couldn't get a trade done but I'll roll with him at that spot. Could maybe do a deal for your 6.3 if you don't get Spiller.
something like spiller(5.10F)/15.12G for 6.3/12.3. About equal according to the calculator.

millworkguy wants my 6.08D and is offering 7.02H and 13.07H as a bump. Going to offer 18.0D along with the 6th rounder unless someone here wants the 6.08
WR looks a bit weak at 6.08D which is where I was thinking of going. Alf Morris still there too though and would be RB3 behind Ball and Spiller. Might be nice to have Morris as an insurance policy and mostly forget about RB the rest of the way. thoughts?

i think i am going all in with wr's but Alf would be a nice rb3 for a stabilizer with CJ/Ball.
Not sure what the rest of your team looks like, bu Olsen seems a viable option at that price. Might be a half round early, but kind of like Terrence Williams and Hopkins near there.
Too soon for a third RB IMO. Trading back 5 or 6 picks and taking whichever of Williams or Hopkins falls would be my call unless I wanted Olsen at TE.
Thanks for the deal. Start for me is
Spiller
Marshall Harvin Welker Sanders
Gronk
I like that

Footballguy
Ball, Spiller
Dez, Sanders
Gronk
Luck is there too so I could go QB I guess. No use for Olsen really, I'll make the offer to trade back to 7.02 and a 5 round bump from 18 to 13

Looks like my 7.5g and 9.7f for your 6.8d and 11.5d would fly!
Your clocks winding down Valence and I have to go. Ref and Rene have my log ins if it's a go.
made him a couple of offers myself 
posting in the forums and sites.........................
Guys...instead of performing the trade ahead of the approval, you could have always discussed the specific player to be targeted, had the first guy draft that player and later finish the trade by sending the player instead of the pick.
That way you both avoid the timeout and follow the rule

took ryan mathwes for old mil at 7.07 in f.....he already has lynch and martin but mathews seemed like the value play there....he hit wr pretty hard prior to the pick and had olsen already at te....hope he is ok with that
