We're still early, plenty of moving left to be done

But you do have the best pick, taking Brady at #1. (Too bad you didn't follow your own advice in the MBBRL!)

Didn't Foot have Chris Johnson as well? Sneaky sneaky...

 

[wilwhite]

He did... put him at 36 at the last second. Bunkamania also has him (at 29).

Results Through Week 7



Everybody took a beating at QB this week, but Monkey only got a little slap. SEVEN rankers fell past him and left him at the top. Having Kaep at the right spot at 24 and not having Bradford at all helped him.

But we all did better at RB and WR. Bunkamania, Trudem at Fuzzies continue to dominate at RB, and Bunk and Trudem have both crossed the 50% threshold of possible RB points. TKO edged past WalterFootball to lead the WR rankings.

Overall, we're all still climbing. Bunkamania has broken 600 points and opened a little cushion as Walter Football only posted a modest gain and fell to third.

I know why I'm so bad at QB/RB... but having trouble seeing how I'm first at WR. Just went through my list, and it's bad.

I know why I'm so bad at QB/RB... but having trouble seeing how I'm first at WR. Just went through my list, and it's bad.

It's because we're all terrible at WR. The average at RB is 158 (42% of a perfect score); at WR it's 104 (27% of a perfect score). Ram has one of the lowest RB scores but it's still higher than your WR score, and there are actually slightly more WR points available than RB points. We're all getting pummeled by Jordy, Dez, Benjamin - and to a lesser extent DT, Cobb and Megatron.

In your case, you're helped by having Hopkins, Landry, John Brown and Decker higher than most.

Results Through Week 8



Foot takes over the QB lead with continuing strong performances from his #1 Brady and #2 Carr overcoming (for now) poor performance from his #3 Kapernick.

Trudem faltered a little at QB, but Bunkamania faltered more, letting Trudem slip ahead. RB was a mixed bag. Monkey had the biggest gain at 8.63, mostly from a nice week by Lynch and by staying away from Randle entirely.

Everyone but Milk gained a little at WR, but TKO's gain was modest and WalterFootball and Bandit overtook him. Milk's pessimism on ODB cost him this week, along with being higher than most on Garcon, Boldin and Wallace.

Overall, Fuzzies picked up 17.42 points to surge past Walter (13.42), Trudem (8.16) and Bunk (3.11) to take over the top spot.

Given Fuzzies established FF acumen in the past, one might wonder if he'll ever relinquish it.

Go Foot! It's yer birthday. Go Foot! It's yer birthday.

I have to play this next year. I must take down this Alpha Boy.

Results Through Week 9

So everybody took a hit at RB this week as the Le'Veon/Charles/Hill/Hyde/Randle effect starts to hit home (not to mention Lacy).

On the positive side, everybody got boosts at QB and WR as Antonio/Cobb/Watkins/Matthews/Evans/Jeffrey/Dez and Rodgers/Big Ben/Peyton/Luck all performed as expected (looking rough for the QB scores next week, though).

Fuzzy took the biggest hit at RB, with Charles #1, Forte #2, Lacy #3 and Le'Veon #4. (Least hurt at RB was Ram, who has Charles at #16.) Without getting much help at WR and QB, and with only a slim lead last week, Fuzzy was trampled over by Bunkamania, Bandit, Walter, Trudem, ADP and even CBS's Dave Richard to be unceremoniously dumped into 7th place (that's what I get for suggesting you'd hold on for the duration; sorry Fuzz).

Bunkamania gained a crazy 31.68 pts, driven by a Watkins/Matthews/LaFell cocktail with a Mariota chaser, to reclaim the top spot.

Thanks, Wil.
Wow. I actually dropped 2 spots overall. Was stuck in the 6th spot for 2 weeks. Now I'm sad.

 

[The Foot]

Go Foot! It's yer birthday. Go Foot! It's yer birthday.

I have to play this next year. I must take down this Alpha Boy.

thanks chef

 

[The Foot]

wil great job as always

 

[Trudem]

Im curious how this is looking now. Some players that were highly projected are starting to play well and others are falling apart. Should be an interesting stretch run.

 

[wilwhite]

Dang, I been slackin'... lemme get on it.

 

[averagejoe]

There's been some demoralizing efforts this year. I'm interested in an update, but that would be similar to...

...slowing down for a bad traffic accident.
...touching your tongue to a sore in your mouth - just to see if it's still there.

Results Through Week 12

Bunk and Bandit are still at the top, and now they have some separation from the rest of the pack.





Foot's once stellar QB score is taking a big a hit from Kaep at 3.

And the max possible score for RBs is on the decline while the WRs are holding steady.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

just curious - how did you come up with my WR rankings?

didn't think I put anything together for that this year.

Just gave you the average of everybody else. Wanted a way to include you in the overall somehow. (That's why yours is in italics.)
