Still hanging in there. Hoping to get a bump from Gronk going forward. Has it been discussed how many Gronk owners have been eliminated?

Also, wondering how unique my roster is? Anyone willing to throw me a bone?
972 teams started with Gronk. About 1/3 of those have been eliminated (compared to 24% overall elimination rate).
59 teams started with Graham, Gronk and J Thomas....56 remain....that to me is scary.

 
Thought it would be interesting to say which players I thought would carry my team and haven't and which ones have surprised me by producing.

Team 1:

QB: Have same QB combo on both teams.. A. Luck (3/4 weeks) and R. Wilson (1/4 weeks).

RB:

Ray Rice counted twice, but one of those weeks was just 7.5 points.

CJ Spiller - Has only counted one week

Justin Forsett - Has not scored 1 point all year. Expected at least a couple of points.

TE:
Jordan Cameron - Counted every week and has been over 30 points 3 times.
David Ausberry - Wish I could remember the sports writer that recommended him. Would pee in that guy's coffee. LOL

Julius Thomas - Big Buzz and living up to it. Counted 3 of 4 weeks.

K:

3 kickers - Kai is out, but other kickers have each counted twice.

DEF:

San Fran - Has not counted all yet. Seattle has been used all 4 weeks.

Team 2:

RB:
Doug Martin - Lousy season so far, but has counted 3 of the 4 weeks. That is NOT good for me.

WR:
Marques Colston - Counted all 4 weeks, but has not put up big numbers. Another bad sign for me.

TE:

Tony Gonzalez - Has only counted 1 time (44.9 points). VERY Good for me as I have Julius Thomas putting up good points. Hope Gonzalez keeps going from here.

K:
3 kickers - Kai is out, but other kickers have each counted twice.

DEF:

San Fran has not counted yet (picked on both teams)

Chicago has played each week (although the defenses tied for points in week 4).

 
Yeah, Im toast. Spent too much on RBs, not enough on WRs, and seems like everyone in here has the value TE's and I have Graham and Heath Miller

Bottom 1000 this week :bag:
Post your roster.
My rooster
My rooster is still crowing!

Ive used every single player rostered except for Blackmon. Not sure if thats a good sign or bad sign as far as depth vs talent of my roster, and Id say the same thing for Bilal Powell being my only player to count all 4 weeks. Considering I was able to survive with no Blackmon for 4 weeks, no Amendola since week 1 (and it sounds like he's closer to returning than Gronk actually right now), Rice and Lacy being banged up but seemingly healthy now, and David Wilson struggling but now with a promising schedule, Im actually a little optimistic. Heath Miller making a timely return and the light seemingly going on for Thompkins certainly help.

I finished just outside what will be the 9000 cutline this week, but off to a decent start with respectable games from Spiller and Gordon.

Well...I'm hoping that some teams who have been getting by with Cameron will go down this week due to his worst performance to date (3-36, 0 TDs). Pretty scary when a guy who is way off his game still posts over 7 points.

I have the three-headed beast at TE known as Grahathomameron.

No updates to this thread since yesterday? I thought everyone would be in here complaining about the lack of production so far... I know the 1:00 games can get off to a slow start, but I have way too many players at zero so far.

Ok I will start 97.15 after early games.Not looking good.

101.75

Romo/Schaub - 13.15

Powell - (7.6 RB/4.6 Flex/7.1 Flex)

+

Demaryius/Andre/Streater/Kerley/V Brown - (6 WR/11.4 WR/4.6 Flex/7.1 Flex)

Winslow/J Thomas - (12.2 TE/4.6 Flex/7.1 Flex)

Hauschka's 21 might be by salvation this week.

Sitting at 137.45

Peyton (-13.15)

Powell/Taylor/R. Brown (-1.50/-2.7) -- RBs really hurting... Peterson on bye and Miller crapped the bed.

AJ (-10.00)

Thomas (-11.40)

Similar to QG.. big shout out to Crosby today, as well as the suspended duo of Gordon/Blackmon.

175 plus Romo, should be fine despite nothing at RB right now.

 
On a week, where I took 8 Zeroes on my roster, I still had 141.9 pts headed to the late games with Manning needing just 22.40 pts to count over Luck, along with Demaryius Thomas and Michael Floyd needing to overcome just 4.8 and 3.6 efforts to count this week.
Given the down performances, injuries to key players and byes, I think I'm going to be safe this week.
Thanks to BJE, Eifert, T.Y Hilton, Hauschka and the Seattle Defense for their efforts this week.
I was worried with the Lacy, Richardson, BJE combo needing to make up for AP's bye week. Also only 1 TE (Rudolph on Bye) and 1 Def (TB on Bye) to count on this week.

I think the fact that LawFirm was going up his former team was a big help. That and the absence of Wilfork as well. It was BJGE's best game by far this year.

OC's Cutoff posted at 124.2, three more games to go.

I'm feeling the Turk's steely glare... sitting at 128 with Kaep (-13.15) And Julio Jones (-7.9).

Well if Vick is out, then I may as well kiss my ### good bye in week 9... no QB. Dead man posting....
My initial contest pick always left Vick as my only week 8 QB.. The more I looked at it, the more it just did not feel safe. I have him in a regular league as well and figured I would run with him until he was injured.

after it ran again at 7:30 that bumped it up to 133.6, I'm sure it'll go up a little more once the 8PM cutline is processed in about 15 mins.

At 219, thanks to Tony Romo, Julius Thomas, Knowshon Moreno, and at least 18 points every other starter. For once, I feel comfortable going into Sunday.

 
My tream sucks and I figured to be knocked out early, but still alive and went nuts this week. For me anyhow. Top 4 guys added up are above the cut line. It don't make sense.

 
Well, I was getting ready to send Newton a "F#$@#$ you!!!" card this week...then remembered I have Julius Thomas.

There was your one, Cam. Next time, you get body slammed by OJ.

 
Was a little bit worried this week going in with just 2 rbs. Should have more than enough to move on...major production just about everywhere.

Andrew Luck $16
Tony Romo $15
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adrian Peterson $37
Chris Johnson $25
Eddie Lacy $16
Shonn Greene $6
Isaac Redman $5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dez Bryant $26
Demaryius Thomas $24
T.Y. Hilton $14
Rueben Randle $8
Mohamed Sanu $6
Donnie Avery $4
Kenbrell Thompkins $2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jimmy Graham $31
Julius Thomas $2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steve Hauschka $3
Kai Forbath $3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cleveland Browns $4
Washington Redskins $3

 
Had to use Spiller and Bush, but scored more than 30 each with Dez, Jeffrey and Julius. Feeling good about moving on with 231.7.

 
Schaub killed his owners there with a 5.65 - guys with him and Vick (but not Romo) are in trouble.

Andre didnt't count for me either.

It took Streater one play to move into my lineup :)

Good luck to those sweating the Turk.

Ouch...Brady and Schaub trying to force me out of this thing. The way things have been going, though, Powell will come up big and save my bacon. Thank you J Thomas and Graham for doing what you guys do.

 
Well, doing quick scoring on my phone, it looks like I'm at about 186 and change for the week. Julius Thomas and D-Jax really saved my bacon this week.

Through this week, it's now just down to Forte for players who have counted every week. Cameron just missed my last flex option by a few points.

 
16 points away from the projected cut so I think I will make it this week,but with Smith and Schaub as my QBs I'm short for this thing.
