Early exit
This simply isn't true.
Cutler has been going around QB15-17 in these drafts. If that's the "same tier", then you're paying for top overpaying for Romo. Rivers scored 25 ppg last year in the format. QBs within 3 ppg of him…Eli, Palmer, Cousins, Sanchez, Foles, Flacco, Glennon, Orton.
Tell me more of this 'injury predictions'Early exit
How is he overpaying. Cutler does not make it back to him at the 6/7 turn. Eli does not make it back to him. it fact he was gone. Nor does Flacco. The rest all missed games. . I agree your examples sees one team who was saved by an immunity. Do you want to draft Bradford and have to take Sanchez also and still only have 1 QB.
It's not so much overpaying as it's early paying. He did that with Yeldon too. I personally don't think that's a winning strategy in a 16 teamer against the caliber of competition you guys have in this league.
I felt Miller was a slight reach. Hopkins was the other option I considered there. When it came back to me Brees, Stafford, Brady, Newton, Romo were all available. I rolled the dice that Palmer, Flacco, Dalton would be left 32 picks later and took DJax. DJax was a great value here in a best ball format. He had 8 games over 16 pts last year. Needing 3 WRs to score each week, I felt the impact on passing on him for a QB was a luxury I couldn't afford.
I think if Palmer can stay healthy he'll be in Romo's neighborhood production wise. Tate as a WR3 and Geo as a RB2 really make your team look strong at this point. One thing I do know is that even if Palmer disappoints, you'll still be getting 18-20 ppg from you QB position.
The last two sentences must have gone in on the edit.Soulfly3 said:
Aah, yes. I went to plenty of meets that involved Eaton. I used to coach at Lutheran--Parker (I guess it is just "Lutheran" now that Denver closed). I miss high school track sometimes. I'm coaching middle school now...less intense and time away from the family, but still miss the competition.
ouch...bad topic for me.... the public/private school thing fresh prince .....recruiting,etc....my small town would have ohhhhh maybe 100 more state championships (in all sports) if not for the Lutheran, Holy Family, faith Christians, Kent denver, colorado springs christian, etc. of the world....patriot league still rules and we do it with our local kids....you are officailly dead to me fresh prince....guilty by association even though you are probably doing great things at middle school level.....

Recruiting...like offering athletic scholarships? Yeah, that would be a major violation of CHSAA (and other state's athletic bylaws) and no Lutheran school I have taught or coached at ever did that. If you want to say open houses and advertising to the community to try and you know, stay open and employed (for every Valor that has turned into a high-priced school for the rich, their are a dozen private schools that scrape by) by offering smaller classes or whatever it is families are looking for, then I guess we "recruit."ouch...bad topic for me.... the public/private school thing fresh prince .....recruiting,etc....my small town would have ohhhhh maybe 100 more state championships if not for the Lutheran, Holy Family, faith Christians, Kent denver, colorado springs christian, etc. of the world....patriot league still rules and we do it with our local kids....you are officailly dead to me fresh prince....guilty by association even though you are probably doing great things at middle school level.....
You were gifted Murray. If he stays healthy you should end up with a strong team if Jeff T doesn't blow it.
Thanks.You were gifted Murray. If he stays healthy you should end up with a strong team if Jeff T doesn't blow it.
Personally I'm seeing more value drop at RB than WR. In April Dorsett, Moncrief, and Carter were all drafted options. Now it looks like a mess. Sure the WR talent is at it's highest levels ever, but the number of touches is growing fast enough to support all that talent.Thanks.You were gifted Murray. If he stays healthy you should end up with a strong team if Jeff T doesn't blow it.
Not sure if I would have taken Murray there, TBH, but in retrospect I like it.
Getting 2 solid RBs is hard to do anymore, and I think I have 2 now.
Discussing that sort of thing is what is best about these leagues. Dodds was drafting last night in a best ball league and we were talking about RB scarcity.
How would everyone rank the scarcity across the league these days? I would say stud RB / starting RB (RB1 feature back type) is hardest to find, followed closely by TE1.
WRs are deep in a passing league now, especially in best ball.
BTW, after seeing my flag of Blake Bortles ("Mr. Last QB to even consider, and even then, blech") I now feel good about taking RG3 when I did.
luckily I draft the players I want, and not the players Ive settled on.
It wasn't Romo himself at 5.01, It's more about Palmer/Mallet + Murray/Ellington/Colman >>> Romo/Mallet + Abdullah, especially if a league where you start 2 RB / 3 WR.
Because you asked for an opinion.luckily I draft the players I want, and not the players Ive settled on.
Will happily reach a round or 2 in advance at the turn.
But hey.... we cant all be blessed w your QB tandem of bortles and dalton
or your BEAST RB stable of latavius, ryan mathews, lamar miller and doug martin.
wait... remind me aagin why you're trash talking MY team?
THis is in the eyes of the drafter. Give me Romo/Abdullah over Palmer/ and any of those RB's. I think Abdullah presented not bad value.
Would you then say Bell presented value too?
