I liked Quizz in the 16 team format PPR, RB3, felt like an easy selection. I am not expecting miracles, just a nice steady 10-12 a week that I can rely on and maybe along the way he has a couple of 15-20 point games during the year. SJax is not young, has a lot of wear n tear, tends to miss time. At least Quizz has a defined role it would seem on Atlanta.7.16 Lance Moore
8.01 Quizz Rodgers

I updated the draft in Post 1 through my last pick at 10.02.
As for my selections in the past few rounds, see my next post...
Kind of important to update this thread more often than what's above guys.
I took Dwayne Allen

I think Pittsburgh throws more than most expect, and I don't think the TE will be a factor for PITT this year in the passing game - so yes, the WR2 for the Steelers as my WR4, I'll take that here any day.Thrilled for manny sanders? Hoping he turns it around but he did not look good last year. I like the dezngelo and Myers picks.
I don't understand the TE comment Jeff - Miller will be back and is a favorite target of Roethlisberger (and it's not just because I drafted him)I think Pittsburgh throws more than most expect, and I don't think the TE will be a factor for PITT this year in the passing game - so yes, the WR2 for the Steelers as my WR4, I'll take that here any day.Thrilled for manny sanders?

Heath Miller shredded his knee in Week 17 last year.... about 4 months ago. He tore not just the ACL, not just the PCL, not just the MCL - but all three. That's a lot of damage for a guy that was not exactly a gazelle in the first place. Given that half of his job was to block (which is more stress on that knee) I just don't think he's going to be ready before mid-season at best. The Steelers also went out and added a veteran TE in March. Yes, they didn't draft one, but that doesn't mean Miller won't start the year on the PUP (which I think he will).I don't understand the TE comment Jeff - Miller will be back and is a favorite target of Roethlisberger (and it's not just because I drafted him)I think Pittsburgh throws more than most expect, and I don't think the TE will be a factor for PITT this year in the passing game - so yes, the WR2 for the Steelers as my WR4, I'll take that here any day.Thrilled for manny sanders?

This from notes on this site - " Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Miller (knee) is on schedule in his recovery from surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament. We'll see if he can be ready in time for training camp. The team may ease him back into the lineup during camp so they don't aggravate the injury."Heath Miller shredded his knee in Week 17 last year.... about 4 months ago.

the uncertainty and the fact that people are chasing last years stats make where he went off in most of these survivor leagues laughable....Hook you even admitted in an earlier draft where you took him that you did not know the extent of what was going on with his injury....for a guy that may be on the PUP (i know people said the same about ADP) heading into the year...lets remember we are talking a TE....his early draft status is crazy.....redraft maybe somewhere...survivor TE1 or close...no thanks...

Yeah. that's a good point. PDSL was 20 rounds, so I felt a little better about taking Miller there as I thought I'd pick up a deep flier TE3 in the later rounds (which I wound up not doing, because I'm an absentminded idiot, but enough about me).seems a little risky for a round 8 pick or even higher.... don't have much history on this, but would love to hear an example (outside of the beast that is ADP) where a gamble like this was taken in one of these leagues and it actually paid off.... only 18 rounds in this draft ....and really those couple extra spots that we don't have... keep most from going 3 TE's in this format and make taking Miller a very very risky pick....I'm not using a 8th round pick on a TE2 that may start the year on the PUP....there are other places to roll the dice at that point that make more sense... I'll be the first one to come back in here here and take my medicine if Heath Miller in the 8th round or earlier leads somebody to the chapionship, but I will honestly say, the love for him (and maybe Quiz Rodgers) in these things has been the biggest surprise for me.....
not sure what the bolded means...aint no BS here...just opinions...which is what all the comments are supposed to be about and why we do these.....Lots of BS in these remarks
1) look at what I posted - no suggestion that he doesn't start the season
2) agreed that with Haley still there and Big Ben distributing, Miller will get his
3) I took him at 8.13 as TE2 (having already started the secondary QB run)
Agree 100% - I'd have Heath Miller completely scratched off, which i did.Stinkin Ref said:not sure what the bolded means...aint no BS here...just opinions...which is what all the comments are supposed to be about and why we do these.....Lots of BS in these remarks

Hook...I believe it was you...and I may be wrong...but I believe it was you who admitted to drafting him in one of these first survivor leagues without knowing the extent of his injury or that he was even injured....and that you weren't really aware/up to date on the extent of his knee injury until it was brought to your attention....and now you know and you still pull the trigger....
in an 18 round draft...every roster spot is priceless.....IMO Miller being drafted at all is a mistake....you have to kill the rest of your draft to take 3 TE's which is where the only value in Miller lies IMO....
in any of these survivor drafts if I had a "do not draft" list...he would be at the top....cause IMO (injury aside) he had a career year to begin with and people would be chasing stats and in a 2 PPR the TE2 position in these is too valuable with only 18 rounds to spend a pick on a guy who may be onthe PUP at the beginning of the season...let somebody else drfat him should be the play and some of you were that guy....
kinda hammered so my spelling sucks...sorry
