You honestly think it was that bad? Average at QB, maybe a bit better. Average at RB given I got four guys who will see regular action to post a second RB score. Loaded at WR. Above average at TE. I suspect middle of the road at D/K in you believe both picks are top five talent. No bye week issues.
Wasn't sure....lots of differing opinions on players and strategy. If getting guys much later than their ADP in the other leagues is an indicator, I drafted very well. If you guys are great at avoiding the trash and mistakes the other leagues make, then I'll be gone early.
Seriously Bass, your team sucks donkey dongs and that's before breaking down position variability. 1 K and 1 D? Are you #######' kidding me? You're gone in week 6 (Pitt bye) as Folk gets two PATs along with the rest of your underachieving schlubs. GL buddy.Wasn't sure....lots of differing opinions on players and strategy.

IMHO, Betts was overkill. Your PK1 Folk has a late bye...perhaps week 4 NE/IND PK is better in this format if you're going one kicker. Toomer - 2nd DST Colts, Packers, Ravens Betts - 2nd PK only 5 taken at that pointC. Brown - Norwood (7) Hard for overkill at DST/PK to feel right and hindsights 20/20, but... I like the team more than some.
I think the team is alright, but I think the avg/below avg QB position, with the ho-hum RB corps along with spotting points to other teams every week at K and DEF is just going to be too much after some of the lesser teams are eliminated. You're loaded at WR and TE looks solid. Philly Rivers has been spotty at QB from an FF scoring view, starting off slowly last year and then picking it up once Chambers was acquired. Offsetting that for this year though is that he ended the year hurt and so I really think his value as anything more than a slightly inconsistent QB#2 is just going to come down to how healthy he is. As for Rodgers, he's a bit of an unknown to me since we've rarely seen him in games, though he certain has the weapons to succeed. Just seems like a really risky 2 QB set to have. RB seems alright, nothing special. Bush should be a good #1 in PPR and assuming Forte gets a decent share of carries he should end up as the #2 RB most of the time. Or who knows, maybe Chris Brown stays healthy long enough to be useful. Betts strikes as overkill or a reason not to take Washington in the first place.
Regarding Folk's late bye, I believe that I had no one off week 10 at that time. Ended up with just Betts. Figured all the position players being available would make up the difference with Folk off. Also, usually by that time you have a team or two crippled with injuries and posting blanks at QB/RB/WR.You're the second person that said Betts was overkill. Since I went WR heavy I was left with only Bush as a true starter. I would expect that if I didn't draft Betts a lot of people would be questioning my RB corps. Personally I think Betts sees more action this year. Last year he was being drafted around RB30-35, this year he's a after thought.
I think your set at QB and Warner was a great choice of back-up, since he's one of the few to have a realistic chance of outscoring Peyton in a given week. I mean let's face it, Peyton gets hurt, SOL anyway, so rolling 1 QB or high upside back-up was definitely right.McGahee looks to be money this year and depending on how well the O-line improvements take to the Jets, Thomas Jones might've been undervalued. I think S. Young will stay buried on the depth chart in DEN for right now, but definitely has a chance of making an impact. I'm a huge Lynch guy, so I tend to think F. Jackson won't see the field unless Lynch gets hurt. Solid corps overall with the first three though.Eesh. Well that much good stuff had to come from the cost of somewhere, S. Holmes is good, but I think his ceiling is around WR 17-19 and this assumes Rothisburger keeps airing the ball out and the Steelers don't lean on the running game more. Engram was a nice pick-up, good one there. Hackett is buried on the depth chart and there may not be a whole lot of opportunities for him in CAR, plus he seems like a decent injury risk. If Clayton could get back to his 06 numbers or close, he'd be great value, right now it seems as if any WR in BAL is in deep trouble considering the QB situation. At least Mason, McGahee and Heap are going to see a lot of dump-off passes. Walter, Hester and Hilliard all likely won't put up significant playing time, so banking on injuries in front of them to get any real use from them. I see roughly a WR1/2, 2 and five WR4's for fantasy purposes (although I could be wrong on hackett, at least he's starting). This is going to be pretty rough from the beginning and byes won't help much.Owen Daniels put up good numbers last year and looks to be in a position to do so again, Jeff King... eh. I'd of liked a better secondary TE, but you can probably scrounge up some points. K / DST, Fine. Rolling only JAX seems a little awkward, but due to the fluidity of defenses only having one always seems like that.Solid team overall, assuming you survive week 4 and your WR core doesn't implode you'll go a long way.
Thanks for the feedback.I don't mind taking a donut at K or D in this format if I can add guys that will potentially score for me at a position where we have multiple starters.
Comment isn't referencing my team, rather the team that actually has Henry. On that note, sadness that the commentary thread basically died out.
Wasn't sure if you accidentally meant another league or not. Agree with you on the commentary, this group sucked.Comment isn't referencing my team, rather the team that actually has Henry. On that note, sadness that the commentary thread basically died out.
I think this is a very important point to consider in SSL. I attempted to use that philosophy in my SSL IV draft, outside of my last pick, my #2 QB Quinn. Having players that will see the field each week increases your options for lineup inclusion, and in best ball, the more options, the better chance of making it through a week.
Good point, we usually have enough no shows that everyone gets bumped up to SSL3.
obviously we need some kind of bet here.Who's SSL team goes the furthest?or How about we both get into to the same MBSL league, and see who does better in that league since you've had a trial run now?
I AM FAMOUS!!!!!!!LEGENDARY!!!!or maybe just notorious.....See you ladies in SSL1 next year..Peace
Finally! You all are toast now!
good job funbags and it looks like Bass's team is solid as well
Farve 
You actually think I'll still be in SSL IV next year
