    blew up my team to start over

    I came in 2nd in a dynasty league and had a really good team but was capped out so I almost traded everyone, it was brady colston welker stevie foster Moreno gonzo vdavis....... now the only 3 studs I have are brady fitzgerald and McFadden, the reason I blew it up was because there were a few really good teams and I didn't want to be a border line playoff team and be one and done. I now have 2 1s and 3 1s in next yrs rookie draft and I picked up Blackmon Jeffrey and soon to be Hopkins so hopefully they can be my next wr trio. I have s,hill toon Jenkins childs j.rodgers Hillman d.richardson on my bench. I also want to draft eifert. I want to draft lattimore and Michael too. who else should I target for future studs this and next yr?

    I know this doesn't help, but I don't think I'd have blown up that team, would have rode it out for another year.

    hah ya I thought about it and try to make another run but in a 12 team league there are at least 4 teams fn stacked and I am willing to take a stress less season now to try to build a dynasty. I wanted to get as much value from my guys now before it was too late

    If you blew it up already trade Brady, McFadden and Fitz too, go all the way and get younger.

    Brady isn't overrated, Fitz with a QB will be just fine. McFadden is as fragile as a china doll.

    I did just trade brady for a 1st round pick this yr and big ben, im trading McFadden for th3 5th pick and 2 3 rds and now my next goal is too trade fitz.. with my 5th 6th 9th picks this yr I should be able to draft bell Hopkins eifert. so my future wrs are Blackmon Hopkins Jeffrey hill with eifert at te and bell as a rb. so I think im off to a decent start so far

    Still think you should have rolled with your original team for another year but if you're gonna be bad, be awful.

    Never heard of a fantasy team that you are playing for the future, sounds boring.

    I've never played in a dynasty league, but they do seem fun. I think it was early to just give up on the team though. I really wouldn't be banking on Blackmon either as my future star at WR.

    Do you have 2 separate drafts? One just for rookies?

    just one for rookies, its a dynasty league, so all rookies. I have 2nd pick, so I can choose between Bernard and bell most likely as I think ball is going number one, but I don't want to f this up so what rb should I take between those 3? I have Hillman on my team already as well. with the 7th pick im going to get Hopkins and at 9 im going eifert so I think that would be a great draft in my opinion

    should I keep fitzgerald and build around him or just dump him too? I think he can be really good still and since I have him should I keep him?

    I think I'd try to get a young player for him, going all rookies is a bit rough. What do you have left on your team?

    As far as that first RB goes, I'd go with the guy who I think has the highest upside, not necessarily the best one for this year. So saying that my choice probably wouldn't be Ball but Lacy.

    yeah the more reports that come out of camp about Lacy, the better. I just read today that he is excelling in pass pro (huge with a-rod as the QB) and should see most of the goal line work. they list dejuan harris as the #1 RB but I'd be shocked if lacy didnt start game 1

    Compared to the guys they had last year, yes. He's not good but those guys were pathetic.

    just did my rookie draft, I drafted Bernard at 2 and ball fell to 7 to me and I have Hillman! I also drafter eifert at 9. some other late round pickups I got are woods ertz kelice geno I have my own pick next yr for the rookie draft so it should be the 1st pick along with 3 2s and 4 3s. my team is basically... big ben geno Blackmon randle Jeffrey woods s.hill toon Bernard ball Hillman jrodgers eifert Gresham. I think I can draft maybe a qb and rb next yr? Im liking my young team so far. just not for this year ha
