Figured I'd kick off the Grandson of Survivor II results thread for posting.. we usually throw them out here for discussion.

Here's the League.

For me this week:

RIL

Harrington 20.08 (CPepper only had 4.52!)

JJones 17.10

Portis 12.10

Fitz 34.50 (!!)

Curtis 13.30 (18th round value!)

Bennett 10.90

Pollard 21.80

Vinatieri 6.00

Minnesota 12.00

Total 147.78 - With no players going tonight.

MT looks like toast with 93 and some change going into Monday nite. He's got ATL D, Jenkins, and Duckett left to improve on that score.Good call on adding more staff to the league. :P

Looks like Gator has immunity for week 2 locked up! :thumbup:

 
Don't we start 10 guys, not 9? It seems like everyone forgets we start either 3 RB's or 4 WR's.

Wrong league. The Staff/MB league has a flex, not this one. This one has nothing to do with FBG.

giddy up...no week 1 elimination for me this year. :banned:

here's a link in case anyone else wants to follow along:

The 1 TE draft strategy is definitely not the way to go in this league, as MT is likely to discover this week.

IIRC it was me and Will Grant - both STAFF members - who were in the money last year.Sorry that MT takes the first week drubbins, but he shoulda guessed it was coming when he went with the 1-TE strategy in this league and Gates suddenly was granted a pair of bye weeks. You can't allow any weakness in this league as there are often weeks that are decided by LESS than one point. After my 20+ points a week from the TE position is what got me into the final 5 weeks, I was pretty sure MT was a goner during the single week elimination period.

 
I'm gonna try to continue to break the "first to post curse" - I broke it last year a couple times, and I think the curse is dead.I have 154.7 points with two players going tonight, but only one who could bump my score a tick or two. I'm def. safe to survive, and I may compete for immunity if Larry Johnson pumps out another week like last week. I lost my backup kicker (Tynes), so I really need week 6 immunity (Akers' bye week) or I'm likely done that week.

 
134 here with Courney Anderson and the Saints D to build from there. Historically that's been a safe number.

 
Uh-oh - RIL was the thread starter last week.Maybe I'm the only one immunie to the curse? Guess we'll find out next week.

In hindsight the stud WR strategy is doomed. That apple always looks so enticing, but I see the writing on the wall. I usually do well in these type leagues with an earlier draft spot, but struggle with a late pick.You go back and look at the draft and there was nothing I could do that would have been better at that spot. Reach for Westbrook...Carnell about 2 rounds early? Problem is by the next turn you guys cleaned the RBs again. That last draft spot really looks like a dead end.

 
I see Lhucks writing. Looking at his draft, I would have had the same guys except ROY over Barlow. What a week that would have been.

RB/RB is the only option with the late picks IMHO. With the late pick I go:

RB

RB

RB/WR(depending on who's there)

RB/WR "

WR

QB

QB

I draft 7 deep at WR at least.

Piece together my draft for me from that spot. I think you will find that I would have be gone with Jones/Jones/Rudi/Dillion who were the next 4 off the board.

Looking at my rankings and using my methodology....from your spot my draft probably would have been:Dillon

Kevin Jones

Fred Taylor

Darrel Jackson

Coles

Trent Green

McNair

S. Moss (I drafted him four picks later)

I do track bad matchups for my RBs during my survivor drafts so I may have not gone Dillon/KJ.

Would have been very touch and go in either event. In your scenario my RBs would have been at 15 or less. Likely would have come down to whether or not I had Moss, which was unlikely since I was at the end and feared a QB run. Hard to say for sure as I have Moss in so many other leagues.

And adding Taylor to the mix wouldn't have helped. I still contend that the 12 hole was a really bad spot this year given the NFL schedules.

Yeah, I'm not saying it would've helped your RB scoring, but a different draft strategy could have helped your overall scoring. I definitely wouldn't have gone stud WR...I never do.

Yep... and that will make 0-2. Now if the rest of you guys would get your cash in, I might be able to pay whoever figures out how to win this thing... As to my downfall this year? Grossly overestimating Culpepper's value at 3.07. If I had to do it again, I'd probaby take him in the same spot..... I still think he's going to finish a lot better than he's playing now.

Had I known CPep would have come out this flat, or if someone had taken him before 3.07, I'd probably have gone with Williams as a 3rd RB choice, or DJax as my first WR. I'd add 2 QBS and a RB/WR in the next three picks, so that I had a solid base to build from.

As it stands, :banned: to you guys.. I'll be here with the payout whenever this is over.

 
Let's compare your team from the 12 spot where you went stud WR, with mine from the 11 where I went stud RB.

I'm currently #3 in points in the league, you're currently #6. Our positional scoring breakdown is:

.... G .. B

QB 71 50

RB 56 57

WR 95 120

TE 29 22

PK 23 6

Def 32 33

We're extremely similar at everywhere except you have a 25 point edge at WR and I have a 21 point edge at QB and a 17 point edge at kicker. And if I didn't take Stephen Davis when I did, I'd be behind you at RB despite having used 1.11 and 2.02 on them. Hard to believe someone in the writeup thread called that a wasted pick! I didn't expect Davis to be top 5 amongst RBs, but I knew he wouldn't be a waste of a 15th rounder, heh.

I still don't like the stud WR route, as I'd rather have at least 1 RB already coming into a late 3rd round pick so I have a better chance of going after other value that may show up. This is the 2nd year in a row a great QB has made it down deeper than most of us would have expected, and if you go stud WR you probably have a hard time taking one there as you need the two RBs.

Very interesting. I'm 6th in points but don't expect T Jones to continue to deliver. Your 3rd, but that's been driven by amazing QB and placekicking performances. I still think the guys at the front to middle had much better options/opportunities. I'm concerned that both our team's won't be consistant enough to compete for a title.

Actually, my placekicking isn't great... I'm only at 23 points while the league average is 19, which makes me 4th best. The problem there is you're dead last at 6 points, less than 1/3 of the league average.But yeah, my QB play (Bledsoe week 1, McNabb week 2) is so far what is doing well for me. Thing is, none of my positions are doing horrible. WR is definitely my worst spot so far (ranked 9th in our league). But I'm optimistic. About Porter being healthy again, and the chances of the Indy offense coming to life again and helping me out with Stokely at WR. And that Davis will perform at a good enough level I'm going to have 3 scoring options at RB. Hopefully McGahee and Jones just had bad weeks, though I'm worrying more about Jones. :(
