Just Drafted a 14 Team Yahoo! Fantasy Football League

[NYSportsGuy210]

It is a $100 league....14 teams.....non PPR....regular positions....how did I do?

QB -Matt Ryan (TDs are worth 6 points)
RB -Frank Gore
RB -Ray Rice
WR -James Jones
WR -Wes Welker
WR - T.Y. Hilton
TE - Kyle Rudolph
K - Phil Dawson (49ers)
DEF - Houston

Bench -BJG Ellis
Bench - Shonn Greene
Bench -Nate Washington
Bench - Ryan Tannehill
Bench - DeAndre Hopkins
Bench - Cincinatti Bengals DEF
Bench - Brandon Pettigrew


Is it good? Top 6 team make the post season. Top 2 teams in regular season get a first round bye. Top 4 teams pay out in playoffs.

[wagerjunkie]

solid starting line up. WR core is a lil weak. bench needs major work.

[wagerjunkie]

I'd start Pettigrew over Rudolph.

[JMon]

I agree, solid starters. Bench needs work. I tried like hell to get Hilton on my team to no avail. What pick did u have

[TPowell]

not bad, the bench is awful BUT I'm clueless on 14 team leagues so I can see that not being your fault

[NYSportsGuy210]

I agree, solid starters. Bench needs work. I tried like hell to get Hilton on my team to no avail. What pick did u have

I picked 7th pick overall so I was like right smack dab in the middle. I kind of liked it. Hate waiting forever when I am the first or last pick and get two picks real quickly then have to wait 25 minutes for my next picks to snake around to me.

[NYSportsGuy210]

I'd start Pettigrew over Rudolph.

No way. Last year even when he was the second pass receiving option in Detroit he put up less than stellar numbers. Reggie Bush is gonna take a lot of receptions this year too.

Stafford threw over 700 times last year, a lot of targets to go around.

[Marigold HD]

Team looks good......The bench is mehh, not so great.

[NYSportsGuy210]

I just need to finish top 6 that's all. Nate Washington is a solid bench player, Pettigrew just needs to give me one good week and who know about DeAndre Hopkins.

[Sam Odom]

Good Luck Kid

[NYSportsGuy210]

Good news....was able to pick up the Patriots TE and WR duo of Sudfeld and Kembrell Thompkins.....dropped DeAngre Hopkins and Pettigrew.

[TobiasFunke]

Yeah I agree with the other assessments...a bit thin at wr but overall it's a pretty solid squad

[Tree Rollins]

Wow. penetrating awful. Start trading guys asap.

[NYSportsGuy210]

lol

[USCPHILLYGUY]

Would have passed on Rice with 7th pick. I really see the ravens behind a lot his year & pierce going to eat up those goal line td's. hopefully bonus points for 100 yrd rushing?

[Huckleberry Pig]

agree with others - solid starters, a little thin at receiver depth. should be a pretty good team for a 14 teamer though.

i have the 7th pick in my 12 team league - am curious to see who will be there in the 1st round. HOPING to snag a good RB then get Brees in the 2nd round. May be wishful thinking but ya never know with the run on RB's this year.

[james4512]

i hate ray rice but at 7th overall thats a lot of value, thats a really good team most people must not be familiar with 14 team leagues. You have to sure up your running back though, and you really need to add bernard pierce as a handcuff to rice, you might want to try and get knowshon moreno theres a slight chance he could start for denver by week 3 or 4 and hes cheap

PS you should get hopkins back hell be a stud might be a year early though

[mikemca]

Good news....was able to pick up the Patriots TE and WR duo of Sudfeld and Kembrell Thompkins.....dropped DeAngre Hopkins and Pettigrew.

How did no one draft K Thompkins in 224 picks when he is going in the 12th/13th round?

[the_situation]

good roster for a 14 team league...like the Kenbrell and Sudfeld pickups

[Matt1144]

Good lineup for a 14 team. WR a bit thin because Jones and Welker have good receivers as teammates but Ty Hilton will have an excellent year and the others will still get plenty of attempts. You may get some flack for Greene and BGE but I personally like both. Especially if Bernard doesn't live up to the hype (although I think he does). Also good snag on Cinci D. I like them a lot this year and I feel too many people are sleeping on them.

I took Stafford and Ryan last 2 years and each broke out in those respective years and were right behind the big 3 of Rodgers/Brees/Brady. I definitely like Ryan again but I don't think he puts up as quality of numbers as last season.

[Andy117]

I'd get look to improve on N Washington, Greene and I never keep a 2nd D on my bench (especially at the start of the season)

"Hoping to snag a good RB" -----with the 7th overall pick in the draft? C'mon guy....seriously?

[NYSportsGuy210]

All I know was Gronkowski and Dobson were gone. so were Ridley and obviously Brady early on.

Good call on Knowshawn Moreno. he is still available and I am eyeing him considering Denver's crappy RB predicament. If the Broncos are smart they can just sign Willis McGahee on the cheap.

[redsoxfreak91]

You will regret dropping deandre Hopkins. He is a stud and will be a top 20 receiver this year.

[NYSportsGuy210]

Doubt it. Though Andre Johnson does look like he might put up Megatron numbers this year.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Solid team....Like Jones and Hilton alot, Not a huge Welker fan for fantasy this year.....Will probably have some games of very little production

[allabout the $$$]

i hope tim tebow drops you from 6th to 7th place the last week of the regular season

[NYSportsGuy210]

"Hoping to snag a good RB" -----with the 7th overall pick in the draft? C'mon guy....seriously?

meant to have more emphasis on getting Brees in the 2nd round, didn't type that up well.

[Huckleberry Pig]

Just had a draft for a 12 team, PPR league (passing TD's worth 6 as well) - ended up with:

QB - Drew Brees
RB - CJ Spiller
RB - Darren Sproles
WR - Vincent Jackson
WR - Steve Smith
WR - Antonio Brown
TE - Jared Cook

little thin at WR but feel good about having Spiller, Brees, Sproles, and Jackson.

oddly enough I'd hate your WR's outside of VJaxx in a standard league, BUT in a PPR, Smith and Brown should be solid

ya the whole PPR deal makes a huge difference. It's why I drafted Darren Sproles in the 3rd round. Was surprised he was still there. In a PPR league, he is a top 10 RB. And like you siad, both Smith and Brown are #1 WR's in their respective O's so they should at least get several receptions per game.
