Curious if we all have something/one in common... 

I over doubled my opponents score this week. for Kelce and Ajayi it was good timing for a huge week, although I technically didn't need it. 

QB: Brady

RB: Bell, Ajayi 

WR: OBJ, DT

TE: Kelce

flex: Gabriel

K: Bryant

Def: SD

Key pickups:

Ajayi picked up before his first big game. I had Abdullah and Benard go down so that was a big pickup

Diggs petered out here at the end of the year so Gabriel filled in flex nicely. Same with Mitchell

Also grabbing Bryant after his bye was big for me. kicker was able to give me a big advantage in several games

My first year asa non subscriber, aside from the DD ap. Much of my success is due to these message boards and the valuable posters on here. so thank you- you all know who you are!

 
QB  Wilson          (Used Cousins a lot this year and Flacco in semifinals)

RB  D Johnson

RB  Ty Montgomery   (drafted Ingram, Henry. Used Booker and Prosise during year)

WR  Jordy

WR  M Thomas

WR  Tate     (drafted Matthews and Lockett.  Used various WRs throughout year.  Wallace, S Smith, etc...)

TE  Gates   (drafted Reed, picked up Gates on wire)

K  Janikowski  (had what seemed like a new K every week)

DEF  NYG  (again, used a ton of different DEFs)

Odd...  not one common player from first post.

 
12-team PPR. Everyone can keep 3, with one having to be a rookie the previous year. My rookie keeper was David Johnson in the 11th. My other keepers were Julio in the 1st and McCoy in the 5th. Week 16 starters in bold.

QB: Wilson (4th), Prescott (17th), Romo (WW)

RB: D. Johnson (k-11th), McCoy (k-5th), Powell (9th), Kelley (16th), Richard (WW), Barber (WW)

WR: Julio (k-1st), M. Thomas (7th), R. Matthews (WW), Marshall (2nd), Hurns (6th), M. Lee (WW)

TE: Rudolph (WW), Fleener (8th), Bennett (10th)

K: McManus (19th)

D: ARI (14th)

Thanks to Wilson, DJ and Shady, I won my semifinal match by more than 50 and my final match by more than 40.

 
12 team PPR dynasty:

Winston

DJ, Hyde

jordy, Adams, DT

Ertz (Reed out)

Novak

49's D

I suspect most winning teams have either DJ or Bell on them.

 
This was my third championship (in 24 years), but easily one of my worst teams and yet somehow pulled it off thanks to lucky matchups in Round 1 and Round 2 where my opponent had terrible performances despite great matchups.

You'd be hard pressed to find a worse championship team -

qb - started Carr over Rodgers

rb - started Dixon and Lewis, on the bench Booker, Jennings and Smallwood (IR)

wr/te - A Brown, M Thomas, S Shepard (Graham and Boyd on the bench)

k - Hopkins (Lambo on the bench)

dl - Mack and Vernon

lb - M Smith and McKinney (Burfict OUT and DQ Jackson on suspension)

db - Cyprien and Jefferson (Vacarro on bench)

flex idp - Wake (forced to start a DL at flex because all other IDP players out or suspended)

 What is incredible - even though I was the 2 seed I was a 20 point dog to the 7 seed but won 66 to 59 (two lowest scores of the 8 teams in the playoffs, but got lucky to face the worst score).  Moved on the Round 2 facing the 3 seed, again an 18 point dog but won 68.5 to 48 (you guessed it, the two lowest scores of the 4 teams remaining and again I get lucky).  Into the championship against the 4 seed who pulled off an upset of the 1 in the semis...I was an 8 point dog.  Won 84.5 to 78.0 thanks to that AB catch.

Now before I completely belittle my team, it was pretty good before my RBs got devastated by injury - I did manage to get the two seed with a 9-3-1 record, but stunk it up in the playoffs but always faced a team that scored just a little worse.  Of 24 players drafted - only 9 remained by the end.  We are allowed 3 FA pickups per week from Week 2 through week 13 for a max of 36 pickups.  I maxed that out, as well as making 3 trades, involving 4 total players.  Only guys that made it the whole year on my roster - Carr, Dion Lewis, Antonio Brown, Mack, Vernon, Burfict, Malcolm Smith, Johnathan Cyprien, and Tony Jefferson.  Key pickups via trade/free agency - Aaron Rodgers, Michael Thomas, Sterling Shepard, Bernardrick McKinney and even Jennings gave me a good week the week I traded for him and then went straight back to the bench.

Standard 12 team league, I was not very good but somehow just kept getting lucky playing low scoring teams and was very fortunate with my lineup decisions.  My week 16 starters were

Matt Ryan

Spencer Ware, Ken Farrow

TY Hilton, Cameron Meredith, Dontelle Inman

TE: Gates

D: Titans

K: Janikowksi 

Tough to find a worse championship roster that that. I picked up Gates and Meredith Saturday morning to replace AJ Green and Eiffert. 

 
12 team, non-PPR, 7th year of a dynasty.  

QB - Newton (Winston, Manning)

WR - Evans, Hilton, Cooks

RB - Gore, J Stew, R Kelley (Jeremy Hill, CJ Anderson)

TE - streamed all year due to Ladarius Green injury.  Ended with CJ Fiedorowicz

 
Winston 

Evans, Jordy, cooks

Dj, Rawls, hill 

m. Bennett

janowski

sd d 

i made a ton of mistakes with this lineup.  But still managed to score 134 pts in standard league non ppr.  My opponent is behind 74.25 pts and has zeke, golden Tate, and Ebron tonight.   Highly unlikely he catches up and wins.   

I got essentially goose egged by Rawls and hill.  Seabass only had 3 pts.  Bennet had a td but only 19. Yards to go along with that.  

On my bench: Crowell, tyreek, JJ nelson, Charles clay, all exploded for 17 plus pts each.  

Jordy and DJ basically won it for me. And sd D was clutch.

If you haven't won yet why would you jinx yourself posting in here?

 
Keeper League in 14th year (on a sad note, our league founder died of cancer this year)

My current roster with starters (bold) who absolutely crushed it this week with 185 points. I basically rode Julio and DJ all year straight to the championship. $$$$

QB: Andrew Luck, Eli Manning

RB: David Johnson, CJ Anderson, Devonte Booker, Spencer Ware, Jay Ajayi, Matt Forte

WR: Julio Jones, Deandre Hopkins, Donte Moncrief, Terrelle Pryor

TE: Travis Kelce

K: Matt Bryant

DEF: Patriots, Chiefs

Anything is possible, but opponent would need 500 yards and 5 tds from zeke Tate and Ebron combined to beat me.   Highly improbable.  I feel good about my chances 

 
12 Team, Standard~

Matt Ryan

Ezekiel Elliot, Latavius Murray, Spencer Ware

Odell Beckham Jr., Mike Evans

Delanie Walker

Sebastion Janikowski (streamed, but rode him through the playoffs)

10 Team Non PPR, had 5th pick. I somehow won this league with no RBs - 

QB Rodgers (2nd Round) used Flacco in Semis

RB Gurley (1st) Gore (9th) 

WR Evans (3rd) Hilton (5th) 

TE Ertz (Waivers) Reed (4th)

Flex M. Thomas (waivers)

K Vinatieri (Waivers)

DST Cardinals (16th) started Chargers in championship game. 

The rest of my draft

6th Mathews

7th Decker

8th Bernard

10th E Manning

11th Ajayi

12th T Smith

13th S. Shepard

14th Ebron

15th Crosby

^ All of those guys I waived at some point (Decker and Bernard obviously were injuries.)

 
Also - Kudos to the Draft Dominator - I drafted this team 100% on the recommendation through round 14. 

 
QB: Taylor

RB: Elliot, Hyde, Ware, Powell

WR: Jordy, Evans, Britt, Parker, Watkins

TE: Ertz

Also had idp where I was very strong. Elliot and my two wrs carried me though.

8 Team PPR League:

QB: D. Brees

WR: Jordy Nelson, D. Thomas, A. Cooper, T. Hill, T. Gabrial

RB: T. Gurley, D. Murray, C. Hyde, T. Montgomery, D. Henry 

TE: C. Brate, L. Green

K. M. Bryant

Def: Green Bay, San Diego 

Honorable mentions: Drafted A. Peterson, K. Allen. 

It was tough this season. Went into the playoffs on a 4 game losing streak. Jordy got hot down the stretch. Hill was great also. Drafting Gurley, AP and Allen was a huge handicap to my team but I out lasted teams in the playoffs with Zeke/Bryant/McCoy on the same team. 

Next season we keep 2 players. My team doesn't have good keepers for a 8 team league. I'll be fighting a uphill battle next season also lol. 

 
QB: Luck

RB: D. Johnson & Hyde

WR: J. Nelson, Watkins & Crabtree (Landry & Merideth on the bench)

TE: Barnidge

K: Novak

Defense: Denver Broncos

Won by 3.45 points tonight.

DL - C. Campbell... C. Jordan... J. Linval

LB - Z. Brown... A. Ogletree... K. Toomer

DB - R. Alford... D. Shead... D. Stewart 

 
 I figured it would be lots of David Johnson, Mike Evans, and EZE..............but to be honest I am shocked at the lack of LeSean McCoy in this thread.  For sure I would have thought a bunch of teams got helped by him this year.

I suspect we would have seen a ton more Melvin Gordon too, if he hadn't ruined owners when he got hurt  in week 14.

QB-Rodgers

D Murray/ Gurley/ L Murray/ Ware/ Rawls

OBJ/ Jordy/ Demaryius/ Smith Sr/ Meredith/ Boldin

Olsen/ Witten/ Fiedorowicz 

Sturgis/ McManus

 
10 Teamer PPR Start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 2 Flex (rb, wr, te), 1K, 1D

WR - K Benj, Hopkins, Cooper, Meredith, Jeffrey

TE - Kelce, Gates

K - Seabass

D - Sea

If not for Daktastic I would have lost.

 
12 Team PPR, made 20 trades and 59 FA moves. Didn't have a single player left that I drafted by W5. Key move was getting Kelce the week of the trade deadline from the team I beat for the chip. Things looked extremely dire after Saturday's early games. Then came Evans, Kelce and Zeke.

QB: Cam

RB: Zeke, Murray

WR: Evans, Ginn, Inman

Flex: Montgomery

TE: Kelce

Three players helped me big time this week...Thank you Rodgers, Nelson, and Zeke!

Traded away Mariotta and Blount early in the year for Palmer. Ended up facing that guy in title game. Lucky it didn't come back to bite me in the ###. Scanning through the teams I see DJ, Zeke, Bell, and Kelce on lots of rosters. Thinking DJ and Kelce are the most common players winning titles.
