It's coming down to a few days before the draft and we are one team short. Opening this up to anyone, anywhere. If you know someone who wants in on a team, put out the word and pass along the details for payment and I'll hook them up with the league info. I would hate to cut a team that's already committed, so try your best to secure the last slot.
I'm gonna be in a hotel in Dubai, which means two things. 1. I'll have way better internet speed than I do here in AFG, and 2. It'll be 4 in the damn AM. Wheeee.
Want to team up? I can do the draft for you on people that we decide on, we can split the entry fee....you can sleep in. Sounds like the perfect idea, doesn't it iczorro or maybe not....
Worked perfect for me, the Wife had a dinner with friends planned and I pissed her off by telling her I have 2 drafts tonight, trust me, the wife didn't think that was a valid excuse.
Woot! Not banned! Drew Brees with Sean Payton back is going to be on fire. I regret nothing. You picked up Matthew If He Stays Healthy Stafford. Don't get too cocky about your "steal" he has one WR. He might get better with Reggie, but who knows. That sidearm pass always makes me nervous.
I'm pretty impressed by the previews for each matchup and the notes from around the league that are automatically generated. Check them out.
I like how no one (NFL.com & Yahoo) is projecting Kenbrall Thompkins to do anything in the game Sunday. The guy lit up the preseason and the patriots have no other WR's beyond Princess Amendola. I think I got the steal of the draft with $3 for Ben Tate.
Wait, I finally found where I could look at Draft results. I got Breeze for $49. Jimmy Graham for $46 (a bit high.) Still think Welker for $30 was fine, but I totally shouldn't have paid for Roddy White at $25, got caught on Tony Romo ($13) and BenJarvus Green-Ellis (11). I couldn't go after Montee Ball or Frank Gore who went SUPER late. And Yahoo started off with the post game auto-generated write ups and they're pretty fucking cool. Its nice to see the pre-game write-up as well. For those of us who take this shit too seriously. Also, we were PPR the last two years right?
The only one I feel like I really reached on was Gronk at $27. And that was just Parker catching me the way I caught him on Rivers last year. Except Gronk will probably still have a decent season after he comes back. I could wish for a more proven #2 WR, but Tavon Austin is supposed to be fucking great, so he may have been a steal. Rodgers for $38 was definitely a surprisingly low cost.
Eric Decker is two injuries away from "If he stays healthy" being his middle name. Also, I fucking had Eric Decker last year in this league. He had 3-5 no shows or like 1-2 point games, and ONLY because we were PPR.
