thanks, but no need for the draft. I just deleted all of round 8 and all of round 7 except Jeaton and Bro1ncos.

Didn't give much thought to what draft spot to pick, as I didn't think it was worth it to analyze rosters, try to figure who would keep who, and then who would take who and where the sweet spot would be. Romo/Hilton weren't the best keepers and maybe I overvalued them in some way as being my 7th and 8th rounders, hell I don't know. So I just took the first slot and hoped whatever small lead I gained by dominating you fools in the last draft would help carry me through to the final four.
1.01 Rob Gronkowski: pretty easy pick in this 2 PPRTE format. I will say I gave some consideration to Lynch and CJ.
2.08 Owen Daniels: I already expressed my feelings to you guys about how I thought you all handled round 1 and 2. Did not see that coming. Soooo...went with a TE as my flex which I wanted to do last week. With one fewer roster spot then we are accustomed to and a smaller player pool, I am hoping the 2 PPR thing carries a little more weight. I could be full of ####, but it seems that should somehow make sense. Since I was kind of digging through scraps at RB/WR because only one of you ####ers took a QB in round 1 or 2 I thought another TE offered the most value. Manning, Brady, etc in the third is going to make those guys tough to beat this week.
3.01 Shane Vereen: it's PPR, thats all I got. I maybe could have said screw it and rolled the dice hoping he made it back to me at the next turn but one of you ####ers probably would have snagged him. Felt forced into this pick, hate that but thats what you get on the ends.
4.08 Jerricho Cotchery: now the party really gets started. Just so you know, debating bewteen Wayne, Nicks, and Cotchery is not all it's cracked up to be. Had both of the other guys teed up first and then changed my mind which of course will come back to bite me. Wasn't sure which one of the INDY WR's would get the love, but at least knew that Cotch would be on the field. Of course the matchup isn't ideal, but I think CAR will be forced to throw and Cocth will get some targets. Wayne and or Nicks could be total non factors for all I know, but I almost considered taking both of them at this turn to lock up the INDY WR outside of Moncrief.
5.01 Gostkowski: BAL D playing pretty good
6.08 DAL DST: them or Indy
7.01 Tony Romo: feeling better about him as the week moves on
8.08 TY Hilton: tough matchup

I spent 15 seconds more than Ref thinking about draft slots. Basically counted all the non-QB's who would likely be left, got to 14, and hoped that at least one person would take a QB, so the 14th would fall to me. Once Old Mil picked Rodgers, I was good to go...
Keepers:
Herron and Benjamin. Only other option was Panthers D.
1.02 - CJ Anderson - highest PPG of any non-QB, no brainer.
2.07 - Doug Baldwin - was between him and Daniels, but locks me in a second keeper for next week along with the winner of the RB game
3.02 - Coby Fleener - was between him and Peyton, but figured there would be no TE's left by the time it got back to me
4.07 - Mason Crosby - Packers should spend a lot of time beating on the Cowboys D
5.02 - Patriots - figured they should win, so why not? Also didn't want kicker and defense from the same team. Although I don't remember why.
6.07 - Cam Newton - last QB standing
Major decision was Peyton and Tim Wright vs. Newton and Fleener. Crosby probably would have been different in that scenario too.

I used similar logic except I went with rough tiers of non qb. Gronk was by himself but the next tier was 5 deep. 3rd tier was 3 deep (jt, Cobb, Sanders). The 6 spot locked me into one of the 2nd tier and I figured there was a chance 2 people would take qb. Plus I wanted to be in the middle to ensure I'd get one of the QBs I wanted.
Sort of worked except the 7 spot ended up being better. The 5 spot also would have been nice with one of the top backs.
Certainly not unhappy with Brady, stew, Nelson, smurf, Richardson, Olsen, a kicker on a great team facing a tough d and the d facing my qb.

I spent a lot of time thinking about my draft slot but after such a crappy start it really didn't matter as I only had two slots to chose from. Those ended up being spots 4 and 5. I knew I wanted to come away with one of Lynch/Lacy/CJ. With Ref a shoe in for Gronk, I figured next four would take DT, leaving one of the RBs left. Worst case was DT as the fall back but Old Mil hopped on Rodgers.
1.5 Lacy - Last of the big three and assures me of either Dez/Lacy moving forward.
I had DT, Gronk, big 3 RB, Nelson, Cobb, Sanders, 4 QBs as my second round target which totaled 12 players which was another reason why I told the 5th spot. The good news was when my pick came up only one of the 4 QBs was gone meaning I could skip QB and still get one of the in the 3rd.
2.4 Edelman - Back and forth between him and LaFell. I already discussed why I took Edelman. Hopefully that's a safe pick. Really hoping that Dez and Witten were the best keepers and make up my week one deficit.
3.5 Manning - Indy will push the Broncos to post points and people are putting Manning out to pasture pre maturely. This could be his final hurrah and I think he'll be ready. If Seattle D hadn't been selected I would taken them here and grabbed Wilson on the way back
4.4 Denver Def - Want either Beasley, Moncrief, or Richardson here. Once they were gone I had a 4 players in the next tier and knew only 3 could be selected. Tried to gain some incremental advantage here and having a scoring opportunity when Manning isn't on the field.
5.5 Wayne - Not an exciting pick but should be rested and rejuvenated. I think Luck will learn on him for clutch catches and he will want to impress his buddy Manning.
6.4 Vintieri - Kickers are crapshoot but he won;t get shut out.
QB - Manning (top 4)
RB - Lacy (top 4)
WR - Dez (top 4), Edelman (borderline top 8), Wayne (borderline WR2)
TE - Witten (top 4)
D/K - Denver/Vintieri (both top 4)
Keeper 1 - Lacy or Dez
Keeper 2 - Manning or Edelman as I can't see both Denver and NE losing

This is still very much anybody's game. Having a lead right now is nice but with only Jordy left, I don't feel safe. (i.e. Luck could score those 35.8 points himself, Adams and Barth could easily outscore Nelson).

I knew taking the 6 slot would bite me!
At least it wasn't close.
I go back to work next week without access to mfl, and it's going to be a rough week, so someone else will have to set things up.

Since there's only four of us, let's start on Tuesday picking spots. We should be able to bang this out in a day or two max...

hey I went back through the thread to try and get some clarification.......
I realize I have to announce my keepers first......but not sure I have to announce my draft slot at the same time.....there was an initial post that said keepers announced on Monday and then draft slot on Tuesday.....
and then it looks like we may have changed that.....
I know that last week I kind of did both at the same time (to kind of save time)......but if I don't have to announce my draft slot until after all of the keepers have been announced, I may want to take a look at that.....
doesn't really matter either way.....thoughts?
until I get a ruling I will hold off on draft slot, but I will keep:
Gronk
Hilton
