Today!! You’re Either A Genius or a Moron - Post Your Best Week 1 Lineup(s) For the Record (1 Viewer)

[Hot Sauce Guy]

This is it, folks - the one time of year where we actually do care about your fantasy team!  

Note: No lineup questions,  do not post your entire roster, do not ask about trades or WSIS. Take that ish to the assistant coach forum, n00b!   

For this topic just post league size, scoring, league type (redraft / keeper / dynasty), tell us what draft position you had, & *most importantly* list your week 1 starting lineup. 

Lock it in here! You’re gonna be a hero or a goat regardless, so might as well throw a time-stamp on it so we know whether to congratulate you or sympathize with you after the first week is done! 



ETA: Post up to two leagues. Any more than that & we might have to stage an intervention for you.

This is a heck of a team. Your trades worked out well for you. Don’t love Murray as a RB2, but you make up for it with your stud trio of WRs. Between ARod & AJones you’ll get just about every Packers TD. Ya shoulda grabbed Crosby too.  

 

[Ilov80s]

Yeah, it was an interesting strategy that hadn't really happened in our league before. He ended up with Kamara, OBJ and Tyreek so he has some serious firepower on his squad as well. FWIW, Yahoo liked our 2 teams the best.

Yeah most of the league thought I was stupid when I announced the trade and then when they saw my draft they changed their tune quickly.  I also have OJ Howard on my bench lol.

I like it. Not a ton of difference in the 1.12 and your 2x 2nd rounders, and you landed an extra 3-4-5 pick? Am I reading that right? You should have a ton of depth.

I traded pick 12, pick 13 and my 11th and 13th rounder picks for a late 2nd, early 3rd, late 4th and early 5th round picks. So it turned out as OBJ, Tyreek, Big Ben, Funchess for Evans, Thielen, Cooks and Rogers.

There are 4-5 total rebuilds, it's a devy league as well which helps explain it--more assets for competitors to trade every year and more assets for rebuilds to deal vets for every year.

It's an insanely active league, trade-wise. Lots of value to be had when everyone deals in circles all offseason. 

Edit: there have been 102 trades since we switched the page over on Feb 6th

 

[ConnSKINS26]

That's good drafting. Whoa. 

Moreso trading. I don't think I've used a rookie pick in 4 years. Have used plenty of devy picks but always trade them for vets...everyone is always looking for the next Barkley I guess. It's a very active league so lots of deals to be found. 102 trades since Feb.

no such thing as being a degenerate simply b/c you're in 10+ leagues.thats awesome! how do you keep your sanity though? I'm upset and crushed for 2 days after one team's loss - I'm in just 2 leagues - can't imagine how bad I'd feel on Tuesday after losing 10+ games -.like someone ran over my cat.

Nice looking team. I could have had Johnson at 1.08 as well as well but opted to go with WR/WR.

Keenan Allen/Adam Thielen is shockingly good value, so that worked out great for you. Neither of those WRs cane back to me at 3.08 (got Amari Cooper who fell because of foot concerns) - but your RB/RB risk payed off.

good job.

  12 Teamer , standard , 6pt passing TDs. START 3 WRs/NO FLEX . I was pulled 5th in our "slot choice drawing",  and knowing I wasn't getting a top 3 back, I went straight to slot 12.  (Hill/JuJu)  Wanted Julio but he was yanked before me at #11. 

 QB - DESHAUN WATSON

 WR1- TYREEK HILL

 WR2- JUJU SMITH-SCHUSTER

 WR3- GERONIMO ALLISON

 RB1 - LEONARD FOURNETTE

 RB2 - MARK INGRAM

 TE - VANCE MCDONALD

 K - JASON MYERS

DEF - SEATTLE

BENCH CREW - Latavius Murray , Matt Breida , Justin Jackson , Justice Hill , Anthony Miller , Ryquell Armstead.

I tend to try and "beat the field at WR" , and try and build a RB platoon as the year goes on.  I was big on FOURNETTE though, and was happy to get him 3.12/4.01.

Would have liked a slightly better WR3, but, what can you do. Had I went that direction it would have cost me Breida or L.Murray.   I'll try and trade one of my RBs for a better WR3 once the injuries set in.

Good idea for a thread HSG.
