Ahh yes, the "Blindly go RB-RB despite questionable talent, because it's the thing to do" strategy at work.

Who are the theoretical 5/6/7 picks? (i'll give you henrnandez, who else?)
A lot of people were taking Hillis in the 6th/7th as a "solid RB3" type guy.

Was wondering the same thing, but then a draft like this would have been very possible in an auction league.

Possible Hernandez, hillis, Smith, Britt all went in that area in a couple of my drafts

1. Darren McFadden
2. Jimmy Graham
3. Hakeem Nicks
4. Steve Smith
5. Dez Bryant
6. Phillip Rivers

12. Jaquizz Rodgers
13. Packers D
14. Jason Hanson
15. Alex Green
Not necessarily the worst possible, but this is the actual team I drafted. (12th of 12) Thought it was the best team I ever drafted. Only reason I'm 2-2 (probably 2-3 after tonight) is nabbing Alf after the draft, trading D.Brown for Colston before last week, and Jason Hanson going nuts the first 4 weeks.

Nicks and Chris Johnson seem to pop up alot.

A more common theme is that lots of people who went RB in round 1 outside of the big 3 are sucking eggs right now.

FFPC team (1.5 PPR for TEs): PIcking out of the 8 slot
Forte
A Hernandez
Andre Johnson
Reggie Bush
Desean Jackson
Jermichael Finley
Malcom Floyd
Santonio Holmes (late)
C palmer
Phil Rivers
WE managed to pick a lot of guys who got hurt and our QBs are both playing less than stellar...

This turdfest is 1-4 and going south fast...after the draft I plugged them into the rate my team and thought I had a gem of a lineup -
Vick/Cutler
Sproles/Matthews/McFadden/Ryan Williams
Graham/Hernandez/Gates/Amendola/L Robinson (no TE requirement - they are considered WR)
Henery
Mario Williams/Ahtyba Rubin
Laurinaitas (my only good player it turns out)/Ayers/DJ Smith/Wagner
Harper (okay also a good player)/Earl Thomas/Chung
This team has so far been dead last in scoring by a WIDE margin - and in 19 years in the league my two lowest scores all time have come form this lineup.
TERRIBLE team.

Heck I even managed to drop someone (can't remember who know) and snag Mendenhall (dropped during bye)due to rotating waivers.

That IS a good team and should make the playoffs in spite of the poor start to the season.

I tried this thread a few days ago, ruined by stupid people in FFA
10 person redraft: 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, Flex, K, Def
Draft: Chris Johnson, Darren McFadden, Andre Johnson, Cam Newton, Steve Smith, Shonn Greene, Vincent Jackson, Beanie Wells, Reggie Wayne, DeAngelo Williams, Tony Gonzalez, Jay Cutler, Baltimore, Janikowski, Sidney Rice. Loved my team post draft.
Absolutely absurd. 3 out of my first 4 picks are so bad that I would have been better off picking no one and having the bench spots for a free agent additions. I missed out on Cam's single good game because I benched him against Atlanta, after 2 bad weeks and 1 mediocre week, in favor of Christian Ponder who had a cupcake match up against Detroit (Min had 2 special teams scores and didn't have to throw - Ponders line: 111 yards no TDs). I missed CJs one average game because I benched him against Houston in favor of DeAngelo Williams (49/1).
This current week I had Cam, Chris Johnson and DeAngelo all starting. Combined score: 141 passing, 72 rushing, 5 receiving, 0 TDs, 3 lost fumbles. Fantasy Points = 7.3.

It was not ruined by anyone in the FFA - it was brilliantly showcased in the FFA. Know your audience.

Not thinking instant championship, but I liked my 12 team PPR league draft.
QB Cutler (Schaub)
RB Forte
RB S. Jackson (Hillis)
WR A. Johnson
WR Bowe
WR L Moore (Bess)
TE Witten
FLEX Tamme
DEF Chicago
1-4 says better luck next year. The Bears defense has scored 15+ total points more than any other player on my roster.

Of course. I'm just bitter about my crappy team.I never know where to post things. This topic definitely seemed like a FFA to me, but whatever.
Thats what I thought esp in a 12 team (non ppr league). Only 4 make the playoffs and we have 3 teams at 4-1 already and one at 5-0.
FFPC team so 1.5 TE PPR for those that don't know. FFPC league but one were you bid for your draft position in rounds 1 and 2 so pick was was pick 1.7 and pick 2 was 2.10 I think. Either way this is the worst teams I've ever drafted in the 10+years of high stakes leagues.
QB- Vick, Palmer
RB- SJAX,Lynch, Tate, Hillis, McCluster, Vereen
WR- Maclin, Little, S Rice, Denarious Moore, Austin Collie, Randall Cobb, Santana Moss
TE- Jimmy Graham, Gates
D- Bengals
K-Sea Bass
So we started with the 2 TE's which was not exactly our plan. Felt good with SJAX and Lynch at RB. Felt during and after the draft WR was the issue and turns out that was just one of many.
Odd thing is, and a good lesson in not over reacting to early performance, me and my co-mgr thought this team was great after week 1. At that point it looked like McCluster, as a RB, was going to be a late round steal as a RB3 type. Randall Cobb looked like a massive home run after week one. Felt once we got Moore and Collie healthy our one weak spot, WR, would work itself out.
As of right now this team has not won a game. In a VP format that awards 2 VP's for a win, 2 VP's for top 4, 1 VP for 5-8 this team is sitting on a whopping one VP after 5 weeks.
And what's really worse is injuries have only been a minor concern. I feel it's hindered SJAX and Gates but we don't even know that for sure. Only know for sure it cost us Collie and we don't know if he had not been demoted for Avery anyway. Just a horrible draft.

I assume D. Thomas is Daniel? That is a good team. Surprised you could get McCoy. Matthews, Peterson, Cruz and Fitz.'southwick said:
