Brady and Moss (1 Viewer)

I took the plunge and was able to get the strategy together out of the 1.9 slot (12 Teams). 6Pt TD's all around but this league has a length bonus, which to me, seperates Brady from Brees due to Moss. Here is what the strategy left me with:

Brady, Tom QB NE

Moss, Randy WR NE

Brown, Ronnie RB MIA

Smith, Kevin RB DET

Royal, Eddie WR DEN

Edwards, Braylon WR CLE

Olsen, Greg TE CHI

Moss, Santana WR WAS

Jones, Thomas RB NYJ

Brown, Donald RB IND

Hasselbeck, Matt QB SEA

Morgan, Josh WR SF

Williams, Ricky RB MIA

Chambers, Chris WR SD

Curtis, Kevin WR PHI

Taylor, Fred RB NE

Texans DST

Tynes, Lawrence K NYG

I think the strategy sets you up nicely to pickup a RB with upside in the 3rd. FWIW Westbrook was there but I elected to pass him by.

 
Thats a bad strategy imo. You miss out on RBs too much. I had a draft this morning, non ppr. I picked up Moss, but elected not to go with Brady. I figured the drop off from Brady to a guy like Rivers, Rodgers or Manning was not that steep. Heres how the team played out...

9th Pick, 12 team league (Non PPR, 6 Pts All TDs)

Jackson, Steven

Moss, Randy

Colston, Marques

Rodgers, Aaron

McFadden, Darren

Moreno, Knowshon

Olsen, Greg

Mason, Derrick

Ginn Jr., Ted

Jones, Julius

Hester, Devin

Garrard, David

Rice, Sidney

Buckhalter, Correll

Had I taken Brady in round 1, I would have been looking RB in Round 4. My main target RRice was picked 3rd round 11th pick! The best available was Lynch, Addai, R. Bush, Stewart, Beanie, LJ. Much rather have the Rodgers/SJax duo than Brady/one of those guys...

Great team here. I'm not a big fan of Olson that high though. I'd still be very happy with this team.

Both great teams. Championships!
 
In the Gladiator league I play in, I got Moss and Brady. Took Moss 9th overall, and when my pick came up in the 3rd round, Brady was still there and none of the RBs and WRs available did anything for me (I could have gotten the equivalent of either a round later), and I figured I was already on Moss, so why not go all-in with both Brady and Moss. It is a league that gives points for long TDs, with the PPR being .25 for RBs, .50 for WRs, and 1.0 for TEs, so this is not a league where the team with the best RBs wins it all. I hate having Cedric Benson as my number 2 RB (given that I think he sucks), but I got him in the 7th round, and I am hoping Brady, Moss and Westbrook can all come up big. My starting lineup in this 12-team league is:

T. Brady

B. Westbrook

C. Benson

R. Moss

V. Jackson

D. Driver

D. Mason (as the flex)

V. Shiancoe

R. Longwell

NE or NYG defense

I need a lot to go right for me to have a prayer, but that is how it went for me in that league. I was much happier with the team I got in my auction league last night.

RB is so deep this year.. especially in PPR leagues, that this is not a bad strategy.

Guys like Joe Addai, Larry Johnson, Derrick Ward, and Felix Jones were available in the 6th round of a draft I recently completed. I grabbed Moss at 1,09 but missed out on Brady by one pick in the 2nd. I was able to go on and get P Thomas in the 4th and M Lynch in the 5th. And we only start 2 WRs in this league!

I think RB/RB in the 1st and 2nd really puts you behind, but and would rather leave the first two rounds with zero RBs than 2.

 
I am amazed at some of the running backs that people were able to get with their 3rd and 4th round picks. Guys like Ronnie Brown, Kevin Smith, Pierre Thomas, Ryan Grant. None of those guys were available to me when I utilized this strategy last week. My draft from the nine slot went like this:

1.9 Moss

2.4 Brady

3.9 Addai- Kevin Smith went right before me

4.4 Lynch- I guess I could have taken Larry Johnson or McFadden but I am not sold on them this year

5.9 A. Gonzalez- could have taken Welker here which would have been overkill

6.4 C. Bensen- Regretting not taking Ray Rice. Wells and Parker went before my next pick as well

7.9 D. Jackson

8.4 Hightower

9.9 Cooley- Leon Washington went just before me

10.4 Bradshaw- Sproles and Chester Taylor were available

11.9 Hixon

12.4 J. Mayo- we start one idp

13.9 Orton

14.4 Crosby

15.9 New Orleans

16.4 Fred Talyor

I guess my point is, like others have pointed out- there is value to be had at running back this year in the later rounds. You have to have gut feelings about guys this year. Personally, I think Joseph Addai is going to have a much better year than people are predicting. I also feel that Cedric Bensen will be used much like Rudi Johnson was used in his productive years in Cinci. I like my chances once I get Lynch back from the suspension. I hope this helps...

 
I took the dive and went Brady-Moss. 10 team PPR league. 1QB-2RB-2WB-1RB/WR-1TE-1PK-1DEF. Bonus points for long TDs and 100 yd games.

1.10 Randy Moss

2.01 Tom Brady

3.10 Greg Jennings

4.01 Dwayne Bowe

5.10 Darren McFadden

6.01 Marshawn Lynch

7.10 Antonio Gates (Got lucky, Olson went 2 picks before, person assumed that Gates was taken)

8.01 Cedric Benson

9.10 Leon Washington

10.01 Torry Holt

11.10 Devin Hester

12.01 David Garrard

13.10 Kevin Faulk

14.01 New England Def

15.10 James Davis

16.01 Mason Crosby

I'm weak at RB, but overall I like the team.

 
I did it too PPR 6pt a passing TD

Here's who I ended up with in a 12 teamer:

12 Randy Moss, NE

13 Tom Brady, NE

36 Terrell Owens, Buf

37 Ryan Grant, GB

60 Willie Parker, Pit

61 Darren McFadden, Oak

84 Visanthe Shiancoe, Min

85 Santonio Holmes, Pit

108 Percy Harvin, Min

109 Chester Taylor, Min

132 Kevin Faulk, NE

133 Trent Edwards, Buf

156 Cowboys D/ST, Dal

157 Jason Elam, Atl

180 Nate Burleson, Sea

 
from the 12 spot, 12 teamer, 2RB 3WR, ppr, all TD's = 6

9 RB's + Fitz + AJ were gone, I had Brady and Moss as top 2 in value, could have went Calvin Johnson here instead, also gambled with Witten which I think is still a good pick in PPR, yeah my RB's are hurting but WR's score so much in this format I should be o.k.

01. (012) Tom Brady

02. (013) Randy Moss

03. (036) Jason Witten

04. (037) Dwayne Bowe

05. (060) Darren McFadden

06. (061) Marshawn Lynch

07. (084) Derrick Ward

08. (085) Devin Hester

09. (108) Leon Washington

10. (109) Domenik Hixon

11. (132) New York

12. (133) Earnest Graham

13. (156) Nate Kaeding

14. (157) Kevin Faulk

15. (180) Justin Gage

 
10 team no PPR, TE count as WR:

Brady and Moss at 1.10 and 2.1

Jennings and Ochocinco at 3.10 and 4.1

Then it is all hazy, but I ended up with Addai and Brown, Ray Rice, Chris Wells, James Davis and a couple other RB gambles I can't remember.

 
I'm beginning to wonder if the Pats defense will actually drive down the production of the offense. They have been succeptible to extended drives (8 to 10 minutes), which obviously would keep the Pats offense off of the field. Just someting to consider . . .

 
Joined the club this morning. Traded Romo/Boldin for Brady/Addai

14 Team PPR Redraft:

Tom Brady

(Edwards)

Chris Johnson

Joseph Addai

(McCoy,Betts,Choice,Graham)

Randy Moss

Eddie Royal

Devin Hester

(Nicks)

Week1 is done and so far so good! My team had the 2nd highest point total and Brady & Moss scored 1/3 of my team's points!

:thumbup:

 
I drafted Brady in the first and R Moss in the second in a 10 team, start 2 QB league and was made fun of.

I was down 39 points last night, and I won the game BECAUSE of Brady/Moss

 
The Brady/Moss team lost to the Brees/Henderson team this week in one of my leagues.

In my dynasty league it won, beating the worst team in the league by 30 points. Brady was the #4 best QB, and Moss was the #16 WR in that league.

Don't see what the hype is all about, if you spent your first two picks on these guys you likely aren't winning your games week 1 :confused:

The bolded part is probably true.

Moss was #5 and Brady was #5. Not awesome but not bad either. All depends on your scoring I guess.

But the reason you lost was because you botched your mid round RB picks, not because of Brady (QB4) and Moss (WR3) in antsports ppr league.
 
Also tried this out this year in my office league. 10 team redraft, 6 pts QB TD

Pick Player

01.10 Tom Brady

02.03 Randy Moss

03.10 Ronnie Brown

04.03 Kevin Smith

05.10 Knowshon Moreno

06.03 Cedric Benson

07.10 Bernard Berrian

08.03 Chris Cooley

09.10 Ahmad Bradshaw

14.03 Trent Cole

15.10 Nate Kaeding

16.03 Chaz Schilens

17.10 Brian Orakpo

18.03 Heath Miller

It's slightly skewed because the team picking at 1.09 was skipped on at least 3 of his first 5 picks after exceeding his time limit

Edit to add, I did win this week with this combo thanks to the 2 last minute Brady TD's, and a below average performance by Rivers on my opposing team.

Huh?My team scored the 2nd most points...and my first 2 picks outscored the first 2 picks for every other team in my 10-teamer except the 2 with Brees and AP.Most of us were discussing backs at the 3/4 turn like Westy/Grant/Barber/Smith/Brown...4 of which did as well as just about all of the backs taken in the first 2 rounds.

I took the plunge in a local 10 team PPR redraft for ####s and giggles. It is fun to watch every week. I beat my week one opponent with no problem. All TD's are 6 points as well so QB's have a higher value. Only 16 roster spots.Here is the team I ended up with starters (for now) in bold.

Brady

R.Bush

McFadden

Ray Rice

Felix Jones

D.Sproles

Michael Bush

Randy Moss

Colston

Mason

Avery

Josh Morgan

C.Henry

Cooley

Akers

New England

...but I LOVED having Brady2Moss in week 1.
I lost, but not because of Brady2Moss. I started A. Gonzales and actually had a pretty good game in spite of his injury. I was playing the #2 scorer this week, though. That's the way it goes. I picked Brady & Moss, 1/2, then was able to get R. Brown, McFadden, & the Buf RBs, and after that was able to get some pretty good WRs as well, and then Caddy in the 17th round. I think my team's gonna shape up pretty well. I'm loving the way Brady/Moss looked last night, & thinking about picking up Watson as well (non-TE league). Now I see why they were comfortable letting Thomas go to the Saints.

Brady was the #4 best QB, and Moss was the #16 WR in that league.

That really isn't the way it works. Just because you spend your #1 and #2 picks on two guys doesn't mean they're both gonna score top 3 points in week 1 or any other week, for that matter. It doesn't mean you're gonna win any particular week, either. What it does mean is that if they continue to perform consistently the way they did last night, they won't be #4 and #16. They'll both be top 3 at their positions, and if you did well in the mid rounds, you'll be kicking ### in the W/L column.

Couple that with the theory driving the strategy...the RB depth available in rounds 3-6...and it looks like a winner so far.

I'll disagree with you here. I'd believe more people pulled out a win because of this combo as opposed to losing because of it. If they lost it was because their middle round picks did not perform well. That's not saying much if you consider a lot of 1st/2nd round players underperformed also (Forte, Turner, etc.).The Brady/Moss owner in one of my leagues just destroyed everyone else. His starting RB's were TJones and JJones....wtf.
 
I went brady and welker

I easily won my game

Could have had the money if I would have started Thomas Jones over Ronnie Brown

:goodposting: Seven of the top 10, and probably close to 15 of the top 20 backs this week in my league had ADPs outside of the first two rounds. There's no reason to believe that Brady/Moss owners couldn't have won plenty of games playing those backs.

It does all depend on your scoring settings. But I suspect most Brady/Moss rd 1/rd 2 owners are pretty happy with that decision today.

Moss/Brady is actually what kept me in the game. :lmao:

 
On a sidenote, I really wish I could have pulled this off in one of my leagues. Regardless of how you feel about these guys or the Pats, watching them is a blast. I can only imagine the joy I'd feel having them on my team and watching their games.

edit: I do have them in the subscriber contest. :lmao:

The only reason I don't have the Moss/Brady combo is because I went for Brees instead at the last second. Glad I resisted the temptation of the tandem. :popcorn:

Are you really trying to downplay Brady and Moss for week 1. You would not be happy with 378-2 from Brady and 12-141 from Moss? You can't be serious. Tell you what, why don't you tell me what those project over 16 weeks since you love to do that so much with the Pats. :rolleyes:
 
I'm now 4-2, scored the highest weekly total of the year, and am also now #1 in total points.

I think this strategy was right on....especially for anyone drafting late in the first. The RBs drafted in that area are either mediocre or hurt. And the RBs we discussed in the 3-5 rounds like RBrown and RRice have been consistent studs.

Things can change...but if you are rolling out Brady-RBRown/RRice/TJones/Benson-RMoss/whoever every week...you are going to be hard to beat.

C'mon while I agree with your premise, how many people drafted all those though.. if you drafted 2 of the other 4 you're probably still sitting pretty.
 
I'm now 4-2, scored the highest weekly total of the year, and am also now #1 in total points.I think this strategy was right on....especially for anyone drafting late in the first. The RBs drafted in that area are either mediocre or hurt.

Well, I did land Benson using this same strategy. Unfortunately I made a fatal error by taking S. Smith (Car) with my 3rd pick. Oddly enough I even said at the draft table when I made the pick "I can't believe I'm about to do this because I think he is very overrated and I can't stand the guy but I'm taking S. Smith." :thumbup: If I pick a RB there or hell even just a different WR (though WR really isn't by problem as I also picked Manningham with my last pick of the draft) I'm probably 5-1 right now instead of 3-3. Oh well. I'm in the playoff hunt at the midpoint of the season and Brady/Moss seem to be finding their groove.

That's my point...not saying you have all of those RB...but that was the group most were discussing...so many will have 2 of them.
 
5-1 now and I unleashed the wrath of hell onto my opponent this week. Also had Colston, Ray Rice, and Manningham in the lineup.

Yeah a local redraft...so not a lot of competition...but it is a pay day right?
