Can we talk Fantasy Football

The leagues I play in favor the QB giving them 6 points for a TD pass- so Manning Brees Rodgers will be first rounders . After the 3 top RBs, 3 qbs, Graham, Calvin Johnson- it gets dicey for me. I have never been a big fan of Forte on my fantasy team. I think both Lacy and Ball are top 10 ish

I have a similar scoring system league. PPR and 6 point to the QB....12 teams
9/10 QB's will be gone by the end of round 2.

Gerhart is another I'll be glad to let someone else take. Hope he goes early...

I think this kid will work down there. 300 touches, 3 down player and has the lower body to be a GLB. The way I look at it is if you can take 3rd downs away from AP, you've got talent. I see Michael Turner v2.0 once he found ATL, but better hands. I think he's top ten this year ppr, maybe even standard.

I'm a believer in taking QBs late. I draft Romo a lot but I play in 4 point QB TD league. With that said, if I was in a 6 point league and I had the 1st pick I'd go Manning over anybody.

I see your point Jarntt. I've never take a #2 TE that early. I guess I was just looking at my perspective with keeping Gronk. I see what you're saying.

There is no possible way, in my opinion, that Gerhardt is a top 75 point scorer. I could be wrong but big, power RBs that aren't fast twitch fiber guys aren't effective full time backs. I haven't seen one since the 70s. We shall see if Toby G can do it.

I had 1st pick last yr and I took AP. Ive been in this particular league 3 yrs now. Drew Brees gets you in the money. I would think Peyton is the same way. I thought I got a steal in the 3rd round with Brady. Not so much. The Romos, Staffords, Ryans, Rivers are all good for overall, but the consistency with Manning and Brees has been unmatchable. I would say Arod is in the same category but he was hurt last yr. The Cams, RG3, Wilson can win some weeks by themselves but some they can get you 5 points as well.

The 12 team leagues are awesome. Unfortunately Im in 2 10 team leagues. Actually one of them is a 40 team league divided in 4 10 team divisions. To me the best league is a 12 team with a Flex position.

Yeah, I always struggle with passing on Brees in the 2nd round. We play 4 pt per QB TDs but I hate not having a stud.

Why is that word being covered up

There we go. Its fine now.

Anyone play any national online fantasy football leagues? I've played the NFFC the last few years and really like it. I did the live draft a couple times, but you need to be free that weekend and near one of the draft spots.

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

No where do you find it at? I did an auction draft league last yr. It was pretty fun.

 

[jarntt]

Google nffc fantasy football. There are many different types of challenges. I usually do the "online challenge" because I like the draft date/time flexibility and the chance to win "overall" prizes

Have you ever won anything from it? Looks like lots of different styles of games

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

I know I mentioned it earlier but Im serious about the fantasy forum on this board. Its almost like some of those guys live for it. TREF , tlance, Bariko- just a few names of the ones that are always willing to answer any question you may have. Im sure some of them play it. Heck they had a draft last yr after their original draft in which you couldnt pick anyone up that went in the first 15 rounds. Basically a team full of backups.

Yes. I've won my league the last three years and also won some overall $.

I really don't go by others opinions in FF. I spend a decent amount of time on it and have found that a lot of people still don't understand how different every league is based on the scoring systems.

I agree with the scoring thing and believe me they have all bases covered. What do you mean you spend time on it? What do you do?
