Am I reading this right?
Someone drafted 4 kickers?
:crazy:

they didn't set up their auto draft right, and decided to go out to the bars instead of finish the last 5-6 rounds.

gonna be killer once both owners that F'd up (another guy has 3 K) drop their extra kickers and thin the free agents out even more, even if it is only another 2-3 guys gone, it is pretty barren.

side note - I did not intend to invite any people from MBBRL, but as this league was coming together, it didn't look like we were getting 12 owners so I reached out to Bandit, and then Barilko expressed interest at pretty much the same time as a couple other guys that I hadn't heard back from, and it blew up to 16 owners.

apologies, but please don't take offense if I didn't send out a big invite for this one, tried to piece it together between a few different friend groups locally around St. Louis/or guys that used to live there that I play FF with.

Really, the magnitude of drafting 16 caught me off guard on several occasions.

You can say that shit again. Especially since all four of us were towards the ends at 3 (bandit), 4 (Barilko, and 13 (Monkey). It was brutal watching like 12 running backs go between each pick and then trying not to panic. There were at least five times during the draft that I actually had to flip through two pages of every other position to find the next damn running back available on my list and decide whether it was worth it to reach for one or just go by my rankings and stick with the other positions. And I can't imagine anybody here getting offended. Besides, I'm the one that actually started off the offending when I started mine last year. LOL.

Ok firstly after that 4 hour draft i'm surprised that I have so many words in me

Well ya heard a 16 Teamer and IDP (both big time firsts for me)


Thanks for posting my squad Smoke


so with the 4th pick i knew that taking Hopkins i wont see a top notch running back for years (unless i burn and crash out and that isnt in my plans) I also had a busted plan that ill get to later
:L:gaah::lm:

now had Gurley or DoublEE been there i would have waived by to my fave player since Andre Johnson

I wasn't taking Bell even though he would be a fine choice, as over the next few years i do believe my Texan will be much more valuable :hope: and i may regret passing on DJ as well

I did think about Barkley as my stud to be and that one may come back to haunt me however thoughts of other so called studs busting before weighed on me

even though i knew that there would be squat left when it came back around i would still be grabbing Rb in the next 2 rounds and most probably the next 3 rounds pending on Wr availability and value

and with those Wrs gone it is time to follow through with the 3 straight Rbs and the hope that 2 of the 3 maintain Rb2 status to compliment my stud Wr Im thinking with 16 teams it could work if and do not forget my future is still waiting in the later rounds
:lm:

ok so Collins in 2 pick 29 overall and then at 36 i reach for Freeman (no way he survives until 61) at least i thought not but look who did Hyde in 4 pick 61

Thus no stud but Hopkins-Collins-Freeman-Hyde could/should be respectable in a 16 teamer

When i grabbed Hyde at 61 the only thing that would have changed my mind would have been my Watson stack but he was long long gong

so i stay on course and better start getting some Wrs to play along side Hopkins...

i grab Marquise Goodwin here at 5th round-68 i wrestle with Ridley and D Moore yet i still went with the guy who has a year under his belt and i like the potential he has shown

believe you me after this pick (my hardest decision since round 1) i watch intently for D Moore or Ridley to make it back around to round 6 pick 93 (already 93 darn 16 teamer)

well they dont so ...hey hey wait Olsen is still there that'll do.. oh crap pick 92 Olsen

ok so with pick 93 i grab Funchess instead jury still out here but hey maybe Moore and Olsen open up things for Funchess could happen

ok 7th round a little early for me but its Lucky pick 100 and thats kinda a sign isnt it man oh man if my new QB isnt healthy along with wishful thinking at RB maybe i do get a stud Rb next year
Who is coming at RB in 2019 Please

so with Luck on my team im going Goff or Brees or Rivers or Mahomes 25 picks from now

No im not all taken so here is where Bandit comes in

i take a good look at the Draft Board and now knowing im not going back to back Qb its time for my Stud Rb in hiding

so far the plan has worked... hmmm pick 125 and then pick 132 lets see now Bandit could go Rb here for sure but im thinking picks 127-128-129-130 wont and guess what they did not

Ok so Bandit picks twice between but im thinking he needs an Rb to play not stash..

Bandit has 2 picks Michael Gallup maybe ya ya thats it ill take Gallup here and take my stashed Rb in a second or 2

N O T
really did ya have to

Guice gone....

oh well lets grab another Rook and its C Kirk (well new plan maybe i can work my way up to a better Rb with Collins and Wr or Freeman and Wr but it looks like my Hopkins in 1 means no stud Rb for me for years after all

ok rounds 10 and 11 excitement is gone its 2 straight Rbs coming up

and this time our Monkey "".:;[ i wont say more its his pool grabbed Connor that hurt i though i had him he could be a Starter sooner than later so its Breida in 10 and Ballage in 11

I need a TE and he prob wont start but he could be good some day and is still there so

12th- Gesicki

i ll grab Hurst in 15 as well as Watson in 16 (back with Brees) and that could work if and when i guess right

between i grabbed Flaaco in case in 13


and being an IDP rook i took my other fave player in 14 yes sir JJ Watt

i was happy to grab Sharpe and Zay Jones late and then of course added a kicker

i took 2 more IDP and from what i read you go Linebacker

Bandit stole my (hey this guy knows squat about IDP how did that happen pick) yep again one snipe pick before me Ogeltree is a Bandit and not An Cat Dubh

so i added Jamie Collins Sr and Preston Brown

and lastly no one there so one more sneaky TE pick (i hope) Blake Darwin outta Big D

Damn Barilko I didn't think it hurt that bad. LOL. I really had no plan going into the draft on taking Guice, but at that point I just couldn't pass on him any longer because the value was just too much. I actually was shocked he was still there as I'm sure you were. I did want to get two rookie running backs and I got Guice and Mark Walton. I almost took either Kalen Ballage or Jordan Wilkins at one point, but after Guice I really needed some running backs that I knew were going to get touches this year. I did accomplish my goal in that the only player I have over 28 years old on my roster is my backup quarterback Case Keenum and he's only 30. One thing about a 16 team league and you can look at the rosters and see, nobody has both running backs and wide receivers. Once bye weeks come in this league I'm thinking there will be plenty of games that neither team gets to 100 points even with full point PPR.

don't ask me who's coming. At this very moment I don't have any big time prospects in my radar, but there is always a few that reveal themselves by mid year. Rightnow, I'm planning on a fairly thin RB class. WR's seem to be a promising bunch though

Having a couple of Cowboys fans didn't hurt........lmao. The guy I drafted fer is a Donkey fan, I told him he wouldn't end up with any but as it turned out he ended with 2 and I don't feel like I reached so it all turns out well. Nothing like getting LBell at 3, knew I'd end up with a stud WR too, really didn't expect to get CMac where I did though...........with his preseason was sure somebody would take him in the 2nd if not the first.

So we had a startup dynasty draft yesterday (via Monkey) and it was the first 16 team league I've ever drafted. 22 rounds. Right at 4 hours. Things got really thin about round 8. Here's my roster in case you guys have never done a 16 teamer for what it looks like:

Zuul's Lefty Bandits

QB Wentz, Carson - PHI (round 4 pick #62)
QB Keenum, Case - DEN (round 13 pick #195)
QB Darnold, Sam (R) - NYJ (round 17 pick #259)
RB Johnson, David - ARI (round 1 pick #3)
RB Johnson Jr., Duke - CLE (round 5 pick #67)
RB Guice, Derrius (R) - WAS (round 8 pick #126)
RB Riddick, Theo - DET (round 9 pick #131)
RB Walton, Mark (R) - CIN (round 12 pick #190)
RB Smith, Rod - DAL (round 18 pick #286)
WR Hilton, T.Y. - IND (round 3 pick #35)
WR Kupp, Cooper - LAR (round 6 pick #94)
WR Cobb, Randall - GB (round 7 pick #99)
WR Godwin, Chris - TB (round 10 pick #157)
WR Allison, Geronimo - GB (round 14 pick #222)
WR Boyd, Tyler - CIN (round 16 pick #254)
WR Coutee, Keke (R) - HOU (round 20 pick #318)
TE Ertz, Zach - PHI (round 2 pick #30)
TE Henry, Hunter - LAC (round 11 pick #163)
TE Goedert, Dallas (R) - PHI (round 15 pick #227)
K McManus, Brandon - DEN (round 21 pick #323)
ID Ogletree, Alec - NYG (round 19 pick #291)
ID Hitchens, Anthony - KC (round 22 pick #350)

Already put Derrius Guice and Hunter Henry on IR and added Alfred Blue and Deangelo Henderson

So I actually had Deandre Hopkins ranked higher in the 1st round but it just scared me to death at what running backs would be left by the time it got back to me and I'm really glad I did because I'd be chasing a RB1 for the next 4 years if I didn't do that as there were already 16 running backs gone when it came back to me. Having the full point PPR made absolutely no difference in draft strategy for anybody as running backs were still flying off the board at a crazy pace. I had decided before the draft that I wanted either Ertz or Kelce if they were there in the 2nd round because I just feel like the advantage having a top tight end in a 16 team league is even greater than in a 12 team league. 3rd round was best WR available in Hilton. 4th round Wentz was at the top of my list and I was happy to pay the price for not having to worry about quarterback for the next 10 years hopefully and there were already 26 running backs off the board. 5th round I had to get another running back and yes Duke Johnson was the best available. Went with Cooper Kupp in round 6 and I had actually considered him in round 5 so I was happy he fell another 27 picks to the next round. Round 7 I really needed another running back, but they were all such a reach at that point that I went with Cobb. I had already told myself that if Guice made it back around I was going to take him in round 8 and he made it back, so I got him with pick 126. Round 9 I had to reach for a running back since I only had two guys that would play this year so I went with another 3rd down back in Riddick and then grabbed Chris Godwin in round 10. Round 11 I told Lefty (who co-owns the team with and came over for the draft) that I just felt like we had to take Hunter Henry at that point because the value was just too great at pick #163 so that's what we did. Round 12 I got the rookie running back I targeted in Mark Walton and in round 13 we went backup quarterback because there had already been 18 drafted and we didn't want to get stuck with one of the lower ones so we went with Keenum because 4 more went that round. At that point we were throwing darts at guys with upside hence with Geronimo Allison and Dallas Goedert in 14 and 15. Wanted to get another guy that would actually be on the field some with Tyler Boyd. And the value of Sam Darnold in round 17 was too much to pass on. Went with Rod Smith in case Zeke gets hurt and Keke Coutee has had a lot of great things said about him in camp, but at pick 318 we were really just looking for guys with a pulse. Interesting note, a couple of guys had to leave the draft early and it auto picked for them and one guy ended up with 3 kickers and the other guy with 4 kickers, so they got pretty damn thin in the late rounds.

Maybe Barilko and Monkey will post their teams for comparison, but I think this team has a chance to make the playoffs this year, but with Guice and Henry a great future to look forward to. I was really surprised that both of them dropped so far. Some interesting picks that guys here might be interested in:

1st quarterback Desean Watson in the 3rd round pick #40 and it wasn't Barilko

1st tight end was Travis Kelce who went with the first pick of the 2nd round pick #17 (I get it though, if the guy really wanted him, there was no way he was making it back to pick #48)

Rookies went as follows: Barkley (#5), Freeman (#36), Penny (#47), Michel (#52), Ronald Jones (#57), Kerryon Johnson (#66), Chubb (#70), D.J. Moore (#72), Ridley (#88), Nyheim Hines (#120), Gallup (#125), Guice (#126), Christian Kirk (#132) James Washington (#150), Anthony Miller (#155), Dante Pettis (#162), Kalen Ballage (#164), Jordan Wilkins (#166) and lots more but that's the first 11 rounds.

1st rookie tight end was Mike Gesecki with pick #189

1st rookie quarterback was Baker Mayfield with pick #191

Josh Gordon went with pick #48

Dez Bryant went with pick #154

If there's anybody else that you care about or want to know where they went just let me know.

Nice! Looks like a pretty solid team there!

Out of curiosity where did Gronk go?

Also love that Guice pick. Him at #126 is an absurd steal. Im doing a superflex dynasty startup right now and took him at #61 and im super happy with that. Im honestly blown away he lasted that long for you.

K Gano, Graham - CAR 19 301

QB - BigBen (15th QB), Dak (20th), Dalton (30th): knew that once I took BigBen, I'd have to get at least 1 more QB in a hurry, never know if he'll hang them up after any given season from here on out. Reached a little bit and took Dak in the 9th after Ben in the 8th, but I wanted some youth at the position and pickings were getting slim. Took Dalton just for the value after we got that deep in the QB pool, again, at least have serviceable options should Ben quit after this year.

RB - Cook (10th RB), Michel (26th), Conner (56th), Blount (63rd), McGuire (77th), Samuels (85th):
Missed a big group between 26 and 56 overall RBs being selected, even for a 16 team league. But with it being full PPR, I wanted to make sure I had 4 WR with good floors and early in career, so RB paid dearly. Lat Murray going in round 7 when I thought I'd be safe to wait until round 9 was rough. Really, the magnitude of drafting 16 caught me off guard on several occasions. Michel - I wanted to get one of the rookie RBs and one of the 2nd yr guys on my squad, so mission accomplished. LeVeon Bell just needs to move on from PIT next year already!!! Doubling down on Steelers not bringing any other RBs in after losing Bell to FA next year in this league and Bandits. Nabbed Blount as a nice 1, maybe 2 year rental if he signs with another team as a short yardage mercenary next year. Really just needed someone who would get touches at that point in the draft. Elijah McGuire was my RB I wanted that I knew I could wait on - I think he's the reason the Jets didn't get in on the rookie RBs this past draft, and his injury before the preseaon games made him invisible.

WR - Evans (8th WR), JuJu (19th), Crowder (33rd), Shepard (44th), Beasley (86th), Kearse (93rd), ChadWilliams (FA): Loved getting Evans to anchor this crew, young, big, and fairly consistent on the catches and yardage, wouldn't mind seeing the TDs settle down into an 8-12 range annually.
Reached a little for both JuJu and Crowder, but I wanted them, and wasn't guaranteed they would have made it back in their respective turns. Shepard rounds out my young guns at WR that was one of my main draft goals, like the youth plus silky smooth route runners I was able to put together. Beasley/Kearse were great bargains for guys that should be involved THIS year, perhaps nothing more than bye week fill-ins, but that late in the draft in a big league - those guys were needed.

TE - Rudolph (6th TE), Jonnu Smith (38th)
went against my normal strategy here for TE, took one relatively early and didn't get one of the top backups, was left scraping the bottom of the barrel. Total F up on my part - I had Ricky Seals-Jones queued up and was talking about drafting him, then for whatever reason when I came up on the clock, I felt the need to reach for Jaylen Samuels and the guy I was talking to drafted RSJ 2 picks later. Fingers crossed Delanie just gets tired of taking the hits and hangs'em up after this season.

IDP - Mosely (3rd IDP), Edmunds (9th), Marshall (36th)
I wanted to make sure that I got high tackle volume inside LBs, and wanted 2 of them to be young
If all 3 stay healthy, I think I'll have a problem picking which 2 to start - if Marshall plays 15+ games, I think he'll set his PR for tackles on the season - - - easy sledding behind Miller/Chubb, opposing OL won't be able to slow Marshall down at all

Like this as well. Cook, michel, evans, juju could be a really good core for a long time. And i dont think thats really a reach on juju tbh.

Ok firstly after that 4 hour draft i'm surprised that I have so many words in me

Well ya heard a 16 Teamer and IDP (both big time firsts for me)


Thanks for posting my squad Smoke


so with the 4th pick i knew that taking Hopkins i wont see a top notch running back for years (unless i burn and crash out and that isnt in my plans) I also had a busted plan that ill get to later
:L:gaah::lm:

now had Gurley or DoublEE been there i would have waived by to my fave player since Andre Johnson

I wasn't taking Bell even though he would be a fine choice, as over the next few years i do believe my Texan will be much more valuable :hope: and i may regret passing on DJ as well

I did think about Barkley as my stud to be and that one may come back to haunt me however thoughts of other so called studs busting before weighed on me

even though i knew that there would be squat left when it came back around i would still be grabbing Rb in the next 2 rounds and most probably the next 3 rounds pending on Wr availability and value

and with those Wrs gone it is time to follow through with the 3 straight Rbs and the hope that 2 of the 3 maintain Rb2 status to compliment my stud Wr Im thinking with 16 teams it could work if and do not forget my future is still waiting in the later rounds
:lm:

ok so Collins in 2 pick 29 overall and then at 36 i reach for Freeman (no way he survives until 61) at least i thought not but look who did Hyde in 4 pick 61

Thus no stud but Hopkins-Collins-Freeman-Hyde could/should be respectable in a 16 teamer

When i grabbed Hyde at 61 the only thing that would have changed my mind would have been my Watson stack but he was long long gong

so i stay on course and better start getting some Wrs to play along side Hopkins...

i grab Marquise Goodwin here at 5th round-68 i wrestle with Ridley and D Moore yet i still went with the guy who has a year under his belt and i like the potential he has shown

believe you me after this pick (my hardest decision since round 1) i watch intently for D Moore or Ridley to make it back around to round 6 pick 93 (already 93 darn 16 teamer)

well they dont so ...hey hey wait Olsen is still there that'll do.. oh crap pick 92 Olsen

ok so with pick 93 i grab Funchess instead jury still out here but hey maybe Moore and Olsen open up things for Funchess could happen

ok 7th round a little early for me but its Lucky pick 100 and thats kinda a sign isnt it man oh man if my new QB isnt healthy along with wishful thinking at RB maybe i do get a stud Rb next year
Who is coming at RB in 2019 Please

so with Luck on my team im going Goff or Brees or Rivers or Mahomes 25 picks from now

No im not all taken so here is where Bandit comes in

i take a good look at the Draft Board and now knowing im not going back to back Qb its time for my Stud Rb in hiding

so far the plan has worked... hmmm pick 125 and then pick 132 lets see now Bandit could go Rb here for sure but im thinking picks 127-128-129-130 wont and guess what they did not

Ok so Bandit picks twice between but im thinking he needs an Rb to play not stash..

Bandit has 2 picks Michael Gallup maybe ya ya thats it ill take Gallup here and take my stashed Rb in a second or 2

N O T
really did ya have to

Guice gone....

oh well lets grab another Rook and its C Kirk (well new plan maybe i can work my way up to a better Rb with Collins and Wr or Freeman and Wr but it looks like my Hopkins in 1 means no stud Rb for me for years after all

ok rounds 10 and 11 excitement is gone its 2 straight Rbs coming up

and this time our Monkey "".:;[ i wont say more its his pool grabbed Connor that hurt i though i had him he could be a Starter sooner than later so its Breida in 10 and Ballage in 11

I need a TE and he prob wont start but he could be good some day and is still there so

12th- Gesicki

i ll grab Hurst in 15 as well as Watson in 16 (back with Brees) and that could work if and when i guess right

between i grabbed Flaaco in case in 13


and being an IDP rook i took my other fave player in 14 yes sir JJ Watt

i was happy to grab Sharpe and Zay Jones late and then of course added a kicker

i took 2 more IDP and from what i read you go Linebacker

Bandit stole my (hey this guy knows squat about IDP how did that happen pick) yep again one snipe pick before me Ogeltree is a Bandit and not An Cat Dubh

so i added Jamie Collins Sr and Preston Brown

and lastly no one there so one more sneaky TE pick (i hope) Blake Darwin outta Big D

Love Gallup and Breida and think the hopkins pick was the right call at 4. You'll be just fine without that stud rb.

your also homering him

Eh maybe a bit but he was already my 2nd favorite back before the draft. And homer or not theres no world in which there are 125 better dynasty players. Hell id still think about him at 1.02 in rookie drafts. He'll still be a great prospect in a good situation and 22 years old next year. He tore his acl its not like he died. And 2 weeks ago he was being drafted in the top 30 or 40 of startups.

Nice! Looks like a pretty solid team there!

Out of curiosity where did Gronk go?

Also love that Guice pick. Him at #126 is an absurd steal. Im doing a superflex dynasty startup right now and took him at #61 and im super happy with that. Im honestly blown away he lasted that long for you.

Gronk went #31

That week is fast coming upon us when we realize that all our leagues are drafting at the same time.:gaah:


I don't think any of my drafts are at the same time, but I do need to figure out which times they are all at.



As I said in a earlier post, the wife is having surgery next Monday. I am hoping and praying that we make it home before the draft starts at 9:30.
