ya, i have been over 200 all three weeks (222, 206 & 237) but i will most likely be eliminated in week 9 due to bye weeks (i don't have a starting roster to field).....Should have checked those before i put the team together. :wall:

Thru 3:

QB: Brady (2), Taylor (1), Palmer (0).

Love this group

RB: Peterson (2), Hill (1), Ivory (1), Martin (1), Mathews (1), Michael (0)

This could be my downfall, especially during Peterson's bye

WR: Julio (3), Edelman (3), Landry (3), Beasley (1), Adams (0), Royal (0)

No depth at all, the Adams injury looms large. Bye weeks will hurt here.

TE: Eifert (2), Cameron (2), V Davis (1), Celek (0)

Hope some stronger Eifert teams got weeded out this week

K: Janikowski (2), Bullock (1), Scobee (0)

Still meh - RIP Bullock?

D: Chargers (1), Saints (1), Raiders (1)

Still meh

Coulda won money betting Scobee would last longest - seemed quite improbably week one. He's bounced back nicely and now with Ben out you at least probably have a bankable guy.

-QG

 
QBs - Brady (2) Flacco (0) Dalton (1)

I feel good about these 3 - still probably one too many though. Pleasantly surprised with Dalton

RBs - Ingram (3) Matt Jones (2) Ivory (1) CJ Anderson (0) :bag: :bag: T West (0)

If anything does my team in it will be this crew. Anderson has been a total bust so far. Ingram I feel great about as he seems to get looks no matter the score - lots of receptions. West is total garbage it appears. May never see a single flex from this bunch.

WRs - Julio (3) Megatron (2) Harvin (2) J Brown (2) Adams (1) C Brown (1) Royal (0) Hawkins (0)

Maybe Royal can get traded? :/ Harvin has been a nice surprise so far. Still think Baby Hawk will jump up a couple of weeks and be useful.

TEs - Eifert (2) Olsen (2) R Rodgers (0) Chandler (0)

Still happy with the floor on this bunch. Eifert's 0 is an aberration.

PKs - Gano (2) Janikowski (1) Scobee (0)

All 3 are healthy and have a job. Good enough for me.

TDs - Giants (2) Tamp Bay (1) Atlanta (0)

The Giants are making me feel smart. They are better in a contest like this than they are in real life.

Well went Brady and Romo so no QB this week

Went Gronk and Des Bryant Im in trouble need low scores this week and lots of luck

 
Mariota and Stevie Johnson making me feel smart. Bradford ugh. I still am no longer quite sure why I have Marlon Brown rostered.

I'm pretty sure it was something like, "Only Steve Smith? This Brown guy had a few good games last year I thought. Dark horse for huge points!!!" Needless to say, that looks like three wasted dollars. Haven't used a score from Crowell yet either.

That said, 173, 200, 189 and that's without Foster and Gates.

 
Averaging 198 through 3

QBs
Brady (3), Cousins (0) - Cousins get his moment to shine this week

RBs
Charles (3), Gore (3), Bell (1) - no surprises here, need Bell to get a lot of short passes from Vick...

WRs
A. Brown (3), Landry (3), S. Johnson (2), Amendola (1), Adams (0), C. Johnson (0) - Adams sucks, but he sucks for everyone, C. Johnson = first pick I regret. Need A. Brown to find some targets while Big Ben is out.

TEs

Gronk (3), Eifert (2) - Eifert picked a good time to put up a goose egg, means he is likely to bounce back with a big week this week, with Gronk out - I hope!!!

Ks

Scobee (2), Walsh (1), Prater (0) - might be the worst set of Ks I have ever had in this competition

Ds

Colts (1), Bears (1), Jags(1) - only thing worse than my Ks, are my Ds this year. Shambolic.

Big week for me with Brady and Gronk out. I still would have made the cut last week without them, but I'd like to see Eifert pick it up this week, I may not be able to count on big numbers from Brown and Bell on the short week, and without Big Ben.

This is exactly why I found it crazy that a lot of people didn't roster a 3rd QB. You could have had Fitzpatrick or Cousins for $3. Tyrod Taylor for $5. Cheap insurance for byes and injuries and they may even score a week or two when your studs are playing.

 
Averaging 210 so far

QB - Brady (2), T. Taylor (1), Fitzpatrick (0)

RB - Peterson (2), J. Hill (1), Abdullah (2), Woodhead (2), Michael (0)

WR - Julio (3), J. Brown (1), D. Adams (0), Hurns (1), Royal (1), Beasley (0), Amendola (1)

TE - Gronk (3), Olsen (2), Eifert (2)

K - Janikowski (1), Scobee (1), Succop (1)

DEF - Raiders (2), Titans (1), Bears (0)

Overall pretty happy with my team so far. Hill I expect to rebound a bit but not to the level I had anticipated for him. The Jordy Nelson injury hurt me as I felt I just had to swap Stevie Johnson for Davante Adams. Expected my TE's to carry me and so far that has been the case. Kind of wish I had found a way to add Jordan Reed and/or Crockett Gilmore, who were on a lot of versions of my roster. This week will be interesting without Brady/Amendola/Gronk.

 
Hangin' in, hangin' out and hangin' on.

Seven players with a total of $30 wasted money so far (wmsf).

Brady (2), Taylor (1), Fitz and Cousins - wasted money so far.
Peterson (2), Abdullah (2), Anderson (1), Martin (1), Michael - wmsf

J Matthews (3), K Wright (2), Adams (1), Royal (1), Amendola (1), Funchess, Jennings, Strong - wmsf

Gronk (3), Clay (3), Gillmore (1)

Gano (3), Prater, Dawson - wmsf

Packers (1), Lions (1), Buccaneers (1).

Things could get very interesting if Wash/Philly is postponed.

 
This is definitely when my Brady/Gronk team gets eliminated... unless Gavin Escobar decides to go ham

My only two defenses were Miami and Indy. Oh this can't be good

Here is my usage; 30 player roster by the studs are still carrying the team:

T. Brady (3), S. Bradford (0), M. Sanchez (0)
L. Bell (1), D. Woodhead (2), R. Mathews (2), M. Jones (1), J. Starks (1), K. Davis (0), C. Atis-Payne (0), C. Michael (0)
J. Jones (3), J. Landry (3), C. Beasley (1), T. Lockett (1), T. Austin (1), D. Adams (0), D. Funchess (0), M. Wheaton (0), E. Royal (0)
R. Gronk (3), R. Rodgers (1), B. Watson (1), V. Green (0)
S. Janikowski (2), J. Scobee (1), R. Bullock (0)
Colts (1), Jags (1), Raiders (1)

========
I'm hopeful the cut lines will be lower than they have been so far this year because I'll probably need it with Brady and Gronk on bye. Also, if the PHI/WAS game is moved from this weekend I will get a zero from by QB spot.
 
This week's line will be pretty low with byes, still early (some bad rosters out there) and some injuries. I wouldn't be surprised to see it around 115-120 again.

 
Here are picks that haven't counted for me yet:

QB - B Roethlisberger :lol: (other QB's are Mariota & Taylor)

RB - C Michael :yawn:

WR - D Funchess <_<

WR - M Wheaton :shrug: (he'll have a big game or two sometime)

DEF - Bengals :tumbleweed: (my highest priced defense)

 
Picks that I've used every week so far:

RB - J Forsett :yucky:

WR - J Jones :thumbup:

TE - J Reed :excited:

Tyrod Taylor counting twice has to be my biggest surprise, though. I would have put a lot of money on that not being the case and he was a very late add for me....like the last day was the first time I bothered to include a 3rd QB. Could save me this week with Ben out.

My prediction was that week 4 would be the lowest cut (I have 0 NE) and that week 5 would be the second highest next to the final cut.

 
Well Forsett finally at least put a decent game, no TD but at least the yards were there. Scobee scored ok but may be cut soon.

Forsett had a great game last night, but still only put up 15 points. If you want to do well in this contest at the RB position, you either have find the guy who is scoring touchdowns or the guy who gets the catches. So far Forsett isn't doing either and is getting replaced by other backs to do those jobs.

Forsett is on my roster :thumbdown:

 
Scobee could very well end up with another team. Not saying I know anything, just noting that it could happen.

 
Trying to find some hope to survive week four with Brady and Gronk on bye.

I went with two QB's total...Brady and Bradford (331 remaining teams have the same QB tandem)

1,363 teams went with Brady and 1 other QB

213 of those have either Big Ben, Romo, Mariota (bye)

17 more have only Brady at the QB position.

15 have Big Ben and Romo.

18 have the Big Ben/Romo and Mariota combo.

Right there is 263 zeros from the QB position....and I'm sure there are a few more out there somewhere

What does this all mean? I'm sweating the turk tomorrow!

Yeah, that's what I said about Forbath. Steelers almost signed him but went untested and cheap instead, leaving me only Jano.

 
Not looking good this week with no Brady, Gronk, Lynch iffy, Hill sucking, Scobee cut...ha. At least Scobee scored some points for me this week. Ugh

Add another 91 zeros with the Brady/Luck combo.

 
With many of you, lost scobee and forbath.... down to seabass.... makes week 6 look interesting. Kinda glad I rostered 3 kickers.... even if 2 are cut at the moment.

I might be sweating this one out...hoping for a better game from Landry...

 
My RBs finally showed up HIll, Forsett, Martin, and Ivory all nice numbers. More than makes up for Julio finally having a off game.
