I really like your team. You're set at QB and got excellent value with both picks. FJax saved a potential RB hole. Talented WRs with explosive potential. I think Jones was a great value. You handled TE very well. Carolina D should have gone much sooner and I would have taken them as a third defense because of the value. There DEs are studs. You're pushing things at kicker.I haven't looked at all the teams yet for comparision sake, but you have to be in the top half at a bare minimun and could be of of the better teams.4.03 Russell Wilson QB9 SEA

1.14 Alfred Morris RB WAS: I liked getting Morris at the end of round one, there are only so many RB's available in a 16 team league and getting a RB that ran for 1,400 yards at the end of round 1 sounds good to me. I also considered Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Tom Brady, A.J. Green, Julio Jones, and Jason Witten at this pick.
2.03 Jason Witten TE DAL: I was very happy to land Jason Witten in round 2. With the 2 PPR for TE's in this league the top TE's can score a lot of points. Witten held his own with the top TE's this past season. I also considered Julio Jones, Tom Brady, and Aaron Hernandez at this pick.
3.14 Eric Decker WR DEN: In round 3 I knew I wanted to target a WR, RB, or QB depending who was there for my pick. Eric Decker is one of those WR's that can get you a huge number on any given week plus he is on a high powered passing attack offense. I also considered Larry Fitzgerald, Russell Wilson and Tony Romo.
4.03 Russell Wilson QB SEA: Since I already had a RB, WR, & TE I was targeting a QB unless there was good value at another position left. I ended up drafting Russell Wilson because I like the fact that Wilson could go off and score me a few huge weeks during the season. I also considered Tony Romo here but I already had Jason Witten so it helped to make my decision easier on who to draft between Wilson and Romo.
5.14 James Jones WR GB: Since I started the draft with a player from each of the offensive positions I could take best player available no matter what the position and I liked James Jones the most. Once again I took a WR on a high flying passing attack team. I also liked the fact that Jones has the potential to get me a few weeks with a huge score. I also considered David Wilson, T.Y. Hilton and Philip Rivers.
6.03 Philip Rivers QB SD: I didn't know when the next QB run was going to start and being on the ends I didn't want to get caught on the wrong end of a QB run so I decided to draft Rivers in the 6th. I think the new coaching staff will get Rivers back on track and I see a good year for Rivers this year. Plus as much as I like Russell he is young and might get 1 or 2 stinker games in there and it will be nice to have a veteran backup if that does happen. I also considered T.Y. Hilton and Vick Ballard.
7.14 Lance Moore WR NO: Since I had 2 QB's already and a stud TE I knew I would be looking at WR and RB at the 7th round pick. I decided to go with Lance Moore because like Decker and Jones, Moore is capable of putting up a few huge scoring weeks during the season. Plus once again I picked a WR from a team that passes the ball a lot with premium QB's throwing them the football. I also considered Lamar Miller, Mark Ingram, Josh Gordon, Kendall Wright, and Kenny Britt.
8.03 Lamar Miller RB MIA: In the 8th round I considered drafting my 4th WR but I decided to grab a RB because its a long time until I draft again since I'm picking at the ends. I decided to take Lamar Miller because of the RB's available I felt like he had the highest upside of any RB's left. If Reggie Bush does sign with another team then I think Miller will be #1 on the RB depth chart. I also considered Mark Ingram, Josh Gordon, Kendall Wright, and Kenny Britt.
9.14 Fred Jackson RB BUF: In round 9 I was looking at drafting a WR or RB. Since there were a couple of WR's I was comfortable with taking I decided to hold off on WR until round 10 and decided to grab a RB especially since I only had 2 RB's at this time it would be nice to grab a 3rd RB that could hopefully contribute a few scores during the season. I decided on taking Fred Jackson. I still think he has something left in the tank. C.J. Spiller will be the lead back but I think Fred Jackson will be used enough to get me a few usable scored during the season. I was also looking at Bilal Powell, Michael Floyd and Alshon Jeffery at this spot.
10.03 Michael Floyd WR ARI: I knew I wanted to target a WR in the 10th round. I was targeting one of two WR's Michael Floyd or Alshon Jeffery. Since Alshon was taken a couple picks before mine it made my decision easy. I decided on Michael Floyd because I think he is going to take a big step in year two. I think Arizona will fix the QB situation one way or another. I considered drafting a TE or Keenan Allen here as well.
11.14 Chris Givins WR STL: With the 11th round pick I wasn't real excited about the RB's left so then I had to make the choice of either drafting a WR or TE here. In the end I decided to grab one of the WR's I was targeting because there were a few TE's left and I knew atleast one of them would be there with my 12th round pick. I had it narrowed down to either Givens or Broyles at this spot. I went with Givens because he has the ability to put up the occasional big score which he proved he is capable of doing this past season. 6 times this season Givens put scores of 10+ points and 3 times scores of 15+ points, not bad for my 5th WR. Givens should be able to get me a few usable scored during the season and that's all I can ask for in the 11th round. I alsco considered Broyles, Moeaki, and a couple other TE's I won't name because they are still on the board.
12.03 Tony Moeaki TE KC: In the 12th round I knew I wanted to land my 2nd TE. I was trying to decide on which one of the three I wanted to go with and decided in the end to go with Moeaki. TE's seem to do well in Andy Reid's offense. Moeaki has done ok in KC considering who has been throwing him the ball in KC. I can only imagine what he can do with a good QB throwing him the ball. I felt like of the three TE's I was targeting that Moeaki had the most upside. I also considered two other TE's at this spot.
13.14 San Diego Chargers D/ST15: I'm not a big proponent of taking defenses early. I wait as long as I can before I have to start taking defenses. I would rather spend earlier picks on WR and RB depth. With the 13th round pick I decided to go with a defense. I new I couldn't wait any longer and wanted to atleast grab 1 defense at this turn, since its a long time until I pick again. I decided to grab the Chargers because they were my highest rated defense left on the board. At this pick I also considered Jonathan Baldwin and Reuben Randle.
14.03 Reuben Randle WR72 NYG: If Randle can win the #3 job with the Giants then I have no doubt he has the potential of getting me a few scores during the season. During Manningham's final three seasons with the Giants he averaged 763 yards and 6 TD's per year. If Randle can come even close to that I would be estatic with Randle as my WR6. I also considered taking my 2nd defense here but decided to wait because I couldn't pass on Randle, I'm sure Randle wouldn't have made it back to me.
15.14 Montee Ball RB62 ROOK: I decided to grab a RB with this pick. I drafted Montee Ball because I'm not real excited with the veterans left out there. Montee Ball was my next rated rookie RB left on the board. With only 3 RB's on my roster before this pick I needed to make a swing for the fences pick here and hope that Montee Ball lands in a nice spot during the draft. I also considered taking a defense or kicker here.
16.03 Carolina Panthers D/ST28: Like I said earlier I don't like to draft defenses early. I prefer to spend those picks on RB and WR depth. I chose the Panthers because they were my next rated defense on my draft board and being the 28th defense there wasn't much to choose from. As long as I get two defenses I am happy. I don't believe in drafting more then 2 defenses so I'm done with this position for the draft.
Continuing the conversation....My team so far:
Certainly liked the Foster (lots of TDs and PPR love), Roddy White and Matt Ryan (pass-happy Falcons) start as the anchor to the team.I certainly like my WRs. Austin isn't a stud, but solid in PPR league. I like a solid, consistent WR2 in a PPR league like this. Mike Wallace as a WR3? Wow, absolutely yes, even with his uncertainty due to FA. If he lands in, say, New England or New Orleans? Wow.1.02 Jeff Pasquino - Arian Foster - RB2 - Hou

5.02 Jeff Pasquino - Mike Wallace - WR27 - PIT/FA
6.15 Jeff Pasquino - Dennis Pitta - TE8 - BAL
7.02 Jeff Pasquino - Jay Cutler - QB19 - CHI
Thought about reaching for RB2 at the 6/7 turn a little, but really happy to have helped start the mega-runs at QB and TE in Rds 6 and 7. Some nice RBs went at the 5/6 turn (esp. Wilson, was eying him since the 4/5 turn), but I think with Foster already on the team I wanted strength elsewhere for now.
Good pick by Fiddles on Flacco, but I like Cutler more for his big game upside - but would have been torn on Flacco for sure.
We'll see how the depth rounds out this roster.Three of four picks at RB, but for good reason. Only 1 RB on the team, so this is basically an "all in" on Arian Foster to support my running back position. I think Richardson and Powell both have good shots at good contributions for STL and NYJ, respectively. Had to take Ben Tate when I did (as Cap'n pointed out, just in time) as this basically locks up Foster/Tate for the Houston lead RB position.The bye week would hurt of course, but when you're all in on Foster, you can't afford not to have his backup.8.15 Jeff Pasquino - Daryl Richardson - RB38 - STL
9.02 Jeff Pasquino - Brent Celek - TE17 - PHI
10.15 Jeff Pasquino - Ben Tate - RB46 - HOU
11.02 Jeff Pasquino - Bilal Powell - RB48 - NYJ
Celek is a strong TE2 I think, especially in Chip Kelly's offense coming to Philadelphia.
Full roster:

RB - Arian Foster/Ben Tate, Daryl Richardson, Bilal Powell
WR - Roddy White, Miles Austin, Mike Wallace

I like it. Certainly needs some depth at WR, but in best ball that can be built. After the Top 30-40 WRs, they all seem pretty flat from value point of view, so snagging 3 early and then addressing depth at QB, TE then RB looked like a solid plan to me. We'll see how it goes.Adding depth for WR4 here with a solid PPR player, who had 61-778-1 through 13 games last year. That put him at 49th overall last season in PPR scoring for the year and would have him at over 180 fantasy points for 16 games - and that's still with him needing a map to the end zone. If his TDs leveled out to the normal one per every 12-15 catches for most Top 50 WRs, he's a solid WR3 in this format at worst.New England defense - the run is likely to come now, and grabbing a team that was Top 10 last year and has several good matchups coming in 2013 (Miami x2, Buffalo x2, NY Jets x2, Cleveland, Carolina) plus a strong offense that should keep the defense rested, and you have to like their chances at finishing in the Top 10 for fantasy defenses once again.12.15 Jeff Pasquino - Davone Bess - WR68 - MIA

Updating my team, I added a strong kicker who looks to be back in Green Bay and the top FA PK (Dawson) who was 29 of 31 for FGs last year. Even if he isn't back in Cleveland (which I think would be a plus) he is the top FA PK on most lists. Amazing how much PK uncertainty there is this year.Second defense - Eagles.

He'll definately have camp competition.I'm surprised you took Crosby. He was absolutely awful last year. He was missing 40 yarders in warmups in their first playoff game.
In hindsight I might not have gone in that direction - was picking "GB PK" instead of Crosby, to be honest - but in reading recent news the ST Coach gave him a vote of confidence.Kickers are a mess right now, to be honest, across the league.I'm surprised you took Crosby.

Yup...and Henry may not be kicking extra points on a regular basis with Kelly in tonw.In hindsight I might not have gone in that direction - was picking "GB PK" instead of Crosby, to be honest - but in reading recent news the ST Coach gave him a vote of confidence.Kickers are a mess right now, to be honest, across the league.I'm surprised you took Crosby.

I almost took Tolbert in front of both of you ............. in hindsight since Ivory didn't last (FUBSS) I should taken TolbertWas very concerned about ACP taking Tolbert. Thought he'd get the Carolina trio to go with his other duo.Lynch/MJD/Brown/Tolbert - Best in the league? If Williams moves on Tolbert will be golden in Carolina. Two maybe three starters here with all of them being the goal line back.
Same here. Just concerned about his targets even if Boldin leaves/retires.Really like the Jacoby Jones pick. I have been considering him for 5 rounds.
Yup - unless Q leaves, Jacoby is irrelevant (outside leagues that credit kick return TDs or yardage)Same here. Just concerned about his targets even if Boldin leaves/retires.Really like the Jacoby Jones pick. I have been considering him for 5 rounds.
you're right, WR85 should be a lock for 90/1,000/12.

I detect some sarcasm. What he he wants is not relative since he's signed for $3 million but that's a lot of money for third WR on a a team that figures to be pressed against the cap if they resign Flacco. I see about a 0% chance they sign Flacco and Boldin and Jones return at their current pay. I'm not even certain they don't cut both Boldin and Jones but barring a drastic pay reduction by Boldin they won't keep both.TRUE because he wants a LOT of $$$$$I don't think Jacoby returning to the Ravens should be considered a given.'Captain Hook said:Yup - unless Q leaves, Jacoby is irrelevant (outside leagues that credit kick return TDs or yardage)'Jeff Pasquino said:Same here.

Avery was a nice grab this late. Even though he is unsigned, the Colts want him back and he had good numbers (62-793-3) with a ton of targets (131) on a team that loves to throw. Even with drop issues, he's a player who can have big games and contribute to cover bye week issues and has enough upside to be used 3-5 times.

Continuing.... grabbed my WR6 and RB5. Wanted a rookie with upside, so I took what I think is a Top 5 candidate. Read comparisons to F-Jax and he scored lots of TDs (14 last year, 24 in 2011) plus plenty of receptions (28 last year, 43 in 2011), so that sounds good to me.Marvin Jones - he has the inside track to be the WR2 in Cincy, so that's great value here and good upside.18.15 Jeff Pasquino - Joseph Randle - RB71 - ROOK

Could have gone in many directions with the final pick.

Ultimately I think that was the best decision for this squad.Overall final roster:20.15 Jeff Pasquino - Ed Dickson - TE35 - BAL
I really don't see a ton of holes aside from my usual "meh" RB2 approach - but having the Houston RB situation locked down as my RB1 makes that more solid. Strong QB pair, TE pair/trio, D/ST pairing too (I like Philly to rebound). Kickers are more solid than 1/2 the teams here given all the uncertainty across the league. Top 3 WR are very strong, with upside at WR5 and 6 (Bess is a solid but not flashy WR4). If one of the RB2s steps up to post a few points each week, I like this group.Full roster:

Having Stewart and Denaglo is a total unknown at this point too -- may be gold if DW can get a RBBC gig elsewhere and leave JS the starter. may be a heap of turd too.
that is the worst team ive ever seen you draftrookie kickers and only 1 qb in a 20 rd draft? ill give you a wheat penny if you make it past octoberLet there be no confusion -- I don't like this team very much. But, a lot here is still undefined.
So what happened? I asked this because I would have selected CJ if available and may have strayed down this path.I suspect taking a RB in the 2nd and Stafford in the 3rd would have netted a better team.Stewart/Dwilly could be huge or bust.Let there be no confusion -- I don't like this team very much. But, a lot here is still undefined.
