 go change 100 should be my last ( yeah right lol)

QB 3/31 just looking to be average here 2 very play guys and one who may be dead weight even at his 2 value

RB 8/67 if i get bounced early this will be why lots of top end backups and committee guys the goal survive early and let the natrual rigors of the nfl injury bug help me as the season goes on

WR 9/115 very deep unit and what hopefully keeps me afloat to the backs get it going no studs but alot safe plays

TE 3/20 not great had to with zac mller as my number 2 but gambled and cut him for 2 lesser priced gambles gulp......

k 3/9  where i saved $

D 2/8 just hang in there !

much differnt then my normal 20 man stud filled rosters of the past 28 man lets see if it sticks

 
Many years and don't think I have ever made it past week 8 or 9 in this thing. But try, try again. Another tactic this year.

QB - 2/$30

RB - 6/$73

WR - 8/$111

TE - 4/$21

DEF - 6/$14

K - 4/$11

Current roster

Qb 3-34

Rb 5-76

Wr 7-85

TE 5-32

K  4-11

D  2-11

1 dollar left over likely will downgrade a kicker from 3 to 2 to add another cheapo DT.

This looks nothing like my team.  I think I'm zagging this year while people are zigging

 
I think I'm done. Never had much success with the smaller roster sizes. Trying to fill all 30 spots this year.

QB    3  $28

RB    7  $83

WR  10  $96

TE    4  $18

PK    4  $13

TD    2  $12

 
No regerts..

These are the guys I'd love to take....they've been with me for thousands of roster iterations...but won't be making the final cut....

Feel free to use it as a resource list....as exclusion from my roster probably means they will blow up.

Wilson, Brady, Cousins, Stafford, Taylor

Peterson, Bell, Bernard, Blount, Henry

Allen, Cooper, Decker, Snead, Jones, Thomas, Boyd, Fuller, Funchess

Ertz, Miller, Cook

Who is not making your roster, by the slimmest of margins?

:yes:

I actually have 5 of the players you list.

My "almost" team:

Mariota, carr, Eli, RG3

Bell,  sims, Tevin Coleman (he's probably the one I'll regret most)

Antonio Brown, green, Marvin jones, Bolden, wright, wallace

Gronk,  gates, Cook

If I could add 3, it would be Eli, Coleman,  and jones.  Eta: that's at their prices, obviously I'd add Gronk, Bell and brown if price didn't matter.

First time I've used more than 20 players... and I went all the way up to 25.  I cashed with 19 two years ago but the top tier pricing was a lot more favorable that time around.

6 of the same players your much more stud filled i have more depth should be fun

 
Hey Iggy. Don't see a 6 digit number on my entry this year. How else can we link our entries?
I don't think it shows up until after the contest locks (so some time on Thursday morning).  Also, it'll take me some time on Thursday to get all the rosters loaded as well, can't even guarantee that I'll get them in in time for the TNF opener, but everything should be set up by some time on Friday at the latest.

I like it.  Not quite the mix I'd like but I've never come close to winning so maybe you're onto something here.  

Brady Winston could be a great combo.

This is really close to mine except I paid up at RB instead of WR.  We have 11 players in common!

 
I dont have the guts to go zero rb like that...or to go so stud heavy at WR...my roster is similar but with a stud RB1 and two cheaper wides instead of jones.

Brady Winston could be a great combo. 


I looked at a lot of teams from last season and a common theme to me was a lot of dead money in big time RBs.  Combined with the fact that I liked a lot of the lower priced RBs I based my strategy around that.  I'm obviously counting on most of my flex scores to come from my WRs, so I'm hoping I can get two solid scores out of this group of RBs.

You expect the same number of injuries to top RB this year?  Last year was very different.

No, but it wouldn't surprise me either.  To win this contest you have to take risks and I'm willing to try that.  I need to hit on a couple of those RBs but I like my odds of doing that.

My 6th or 7th "Final Version":

QB: 3/$27
RB: 5/$87
WR: 7/$87
TE: 4/$33
K: 3/$7
D: 2/$9

6 different bye weeks among the 7 WRs, and no internal bye conflicts in the other positions.

 
My current iteration:

QB -- 3/$39

RB -- 7/$71

WR -- 8/$75

TE -- 4/$42

PK -- 3/$11

DEF -- 3/$12

Don't necessarily love spending $42 @ TE, but I think there are a couple mid-price guys who could Flex any given week and a couple cheapies who could pan out during the season. I've always been a proponent of 3 PK and DEF. 

 
No Daq Prescott but we have guys like T Boykin of Seattle and D Anderson of Car and EJ Manuel of Buf ...........what happened here

 
Apparently my roster was not yet frozen.

Just watched MJD completely trash Melvin Gordon on NFL Network ("He's blind.  Completely blind.  No disrespect.").

There goes my RB2.  Meh, he was suspect anyway.

For me personally that is way too much money spent at QB where you only have 1 starter and no flex possibility.  With this years QB pricing I can't see rostering more than 3.  You could drop Taylor, RGIII and Gabbert for Wilson for example and he would likely score more than the 3 of them combined.  

Thats what makes this contest interesting though.
