I had hoped for Gates as my TE but missed him by a couple picks and had to settle for Bennett. Hoping Fred Jackson can return to form and contribute as that position was getting thin

 
7.16 Lance Moore

8.01 Quizz Rodgers
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.

Lance Moore was a nice fall back for someone starting to piece together their WR3. I thought about other positions but the likelihood of finding anyone I lied a much at these spots on the next go around just was not very likely.

That QB run was ridiculous and stupid...

...and yes, I had to participate in it, rather than taking advantage of fruit that fell. So, mission accomplished, boys. Hope you all feel good about yourselves.

PICK OVR FRANCHISE SELECTION DATE/TIME COMMENTS

1.15 15. Jeff Pasquino Morris, Alfred WAS RB Thu May 2 10:31:27 a.m. ET 2013 Wanted to start with a feature RB, and I think Morris fits that bill this year.

2.02 18. Jeff Pasquino Witten, Jason DAL TE Thu May 2 11:18:58 a.m. ET 2013 100+ Catches again? I hope so.

3.15 47. Jeff Pasquino Ryan, Matt ATL QB Fri May 3 1:09:07 p.m. ET 2013

4.02 50. Jeff Pasquino Welker, Wes DEN WR Fri May 3 3:34:53 p.m. ET 2013 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List

5.15 79. Jeff Pasquino Ballard, Vick IND RB Sun May 5 12:38:14 a.m. ET 2013 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List Top feature back left, glad to get him as my RB2 - even though he isn't flashy. (Comments Added Sun May 5 10:58:23 a.m. ET 2013)

6.02 82. Jeff Pasquino Johnson, Stevie BUF WR Sun May 5 10:57:41 a.m. ET 2013 Big play / game potential is there, which makes for a strong WR2 in best ball. (Comments Added Sun May 5 10:58:50 a.m. ET 2013)
QB - Matt Ryan

RB - Alfred Morris, Vick Ballard

WR - Wes Welker, Stevie Johnson

TE - Jason Witten

8.02 114. Jeff Pasquino Rivers, Philip SDC QB Mon May 6 9:01:22 p.m. ET 2013 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List

9.15 143. Jeff Pasquino Sanders, Emmanuel PIT WR Wed May 8 11:33:16 a.m. ET 2013 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List Absolutely thrilled to see him still here. I almost took him last round when I took Denarius Moore, so very glad to get both of them and have Sanders as my WR4. (Comments Added Wed May 8 11:50:40 a.m. ET 2013)

10.02 146. Jeff Pasquino Williams, DeAngelo CAR RB Wed May 8 1:09:50 p.m. ET 2013

For my last 4 picks, I went WR3, QB2, WR4 and RB3.

The reasons are pretty simple - supply and demand.

I have maybe 24-25 QBs that I think are locked in as starters and worth owning. I don't want to be wondering if I will get a zero from my QB2, so I wanted to lock that position down first as my first backup (QB2). The scarcity at QB for starters told me all I needed to know as far as what to target at the 7/8 turn. I sort of wanted Bradford instead of Rivers, but once Bradford went (nice pick Broadway G) I took my WR3 in Denarius Moore first (knowing I'd get Rivers or another QB on my list right behind him) after MoP's 2 picks.

Having done WSL and PDSL and knowing that the QB2 run would come, the time was right to get Rivers before it got to the bottom of the barrel.

As for Moore, I like Oakland to throw more and Denarius should be the top target, especially with Myers gone. I nearly took Emmanuel Sanders there, and I was thrilled to see him come all the way back to me at WR4, which is arguably the most important backup on a survivor team (covers 3 WR byes).

The last pick has boom/bust written all over it, but DeAngelo Williams is a home-run hitting RB and as my RB3 with about 45 RBs already gone, I love the value I got in him. I think he sticks in Carolina one more season.

Team:

QB - Matt Ryan (6), Philip Rivers (8)

RB - Alfred Morris (5), Vick Ballard (8), DeAngelo Williams (4)

WR - Wes Welker (9), Stevie Johnson (12), Denarius Moore (7), Emmanuel Sanders (5)

TE - Jason Witten (11)

Flacco (6)

Bradford (7)

L. Bell (5)

B Brown (9)

B Pierce (10)

J Jones (1)

V Cruz (3)

D Bowe (4)

K Wright (8)

R Gronkowski (2)

Was hoping for a quality 5th receiver at the 9/10 turn and stick with that for an extra body elsewhere, but bye weeks were a nightmare with what was left on the board. I'm 3/3 on Kendall Wright in these so far. I hope he has another 60 receptions, I don't care what his yac is. Brown and Pierce at least should get a handful of touches per game. If Gronk isn't healthy at the start of the season, it will be a disaster no matter what.

 
9.08 136. Shawdowfax Flynn, Matt OAK QB Tue May 7 10:11:01 p.m. ET 2013 I agree with Nittany Lion. I'm bitter about this pick. Just hope it's not a wasted pick. 9.09 137.

Kind of important to update this thread more often than what's above guys.

I took Dwayne Allen

PM going out to Hustler

 
Thrilled for manny sanders? Hoping he turns it around but he did not look good last year. I like the dezngelo and Myers picks.

 
Really like the hartline pick. He's money this late. One of the reasons I've waited on wr3 so long. So fu meno.

 
Deangelo was my pick if he fell one more spot. Settled for Gresham to have a couple hopefully solid TE's. Not crazy that Eifert is now there but still think he will be solid part of the offense

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.

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)

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).

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."

Meanwhile Bob Henry has him projected to play in 15 games while MT has him playing 16 games

this aint ADP we are talking about....it's ####### Heath Miller...

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...

I took him as my TE2 in PDSL to backup Pitta, at 8.01, around TE17 I think.

Maybe I reached for him there a little bit, but I was at the turn and didn't think he'd make it another 30 picks. My rationale was that I actually hope he starts the season on PUP - and that Pitta can carry the load for me for 6 weeks while Miller fully recovers, recuperates, then gets turned loose starting Week 7 ... and in a 2PPR league, having two true TE1 options week in and week out down the stretch is the kind of thing that can win you a title. It's a survivor league; trotting a bunch of average Joes out there every week doesn't get it done, you pretty much have to take a few gambles and hope they pay off to win.

But I'd agree that anyone counting on the guy to be their TE1 or the front half of a TEBC is living life a little close to the edge for my tastes.

 
sorry but I just really can't see taking a guy that is very likely to start the year on the PUP list in the first 8 rounds ...which is where he has been going and which is still starter territory in a survivior league....when there are so many other options still available at that point....even at other positions....

banking that he:

a. even comes back at all

b. comes back say 6 games in at best

c. is immediately worked back into the game plan where he will make a significant fantasy impact when he does come back

d. you're still alive to reap any posible benefits

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.....

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 :cool: )

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).

Not sure I'd want to run the same risk in an 18-round draft where you're more or less locked down to 2 TEs.

Sent an email to MOP to try and get the turn made

Have a meeting this afternoon but predrafted for round 12 - BUT if my list gets depleted, a) FU All and b) someone can call me for a pick although I am sure c) none of the above is the correct answer.

Be back around 5 PM PT

Opted to go with TE over WR/RB in the 11th. Seems like Housler is in the right spot at the right time. Arians and Palmer both worked wonders for their TEs last year.

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.....

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

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 :cool: )
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.....

Agree 100% - I'd have Heath Miller completely scratched off, which i did.

I even questioned drafting Celek at my TE2. I went with him because I think Chip Kelly is going to use him and the other 2 TEs in Philly quite a bit, plus with lots of snaps I think the TE will be quite valuable. As a backup to Witten I don't expect him to count much for me, which is why I went TE2 as my last backup spot.
