I'm 4-4, and my team is completely shaken up

I took 3 gambles in my draft and fell short in all of them, except for one. (Sudfeld, Tavon, and Lacy)

QB: Matt Stafford
WR: A.J. Green
WR: DeSean Jackson (Traded for)
RB: Adrian Peterson
RB: Shady McCoy
TE: Julius Thomas (Waivers)
FLEX: Eddie Lacy
K: Dan Bailey (Waivers)
D/ST: Kansas City (Waivers)

BENCH:
Greg Olsen
Fred Jackson
Tony Romo
Stevie Johnson (Waivers)
Stevan Ridley (Waivers)
Percy Harvin (Waivers)
Chicago D/ST

I like my chances going forward

I'm not sure which one of these questions to ask first........


How is that team 4-4?
How did you land AP and Shady?
How many people are actually in this league......

Like I said, my team is COMPLETELY different.

AP was my #1, and Shady fell to the 3rd. Took him with my third pick.

Pre-draft 10. One guy backed out last minute, so we went 8 teams. I know why people don't like being in an 8 team league now.

A guy in my league is tied for 1st with the least amount of points scored. It's so damn frustrating. But, I've played in a roto league before and it sucks, so I guess I have to accept these types of situations.

Why didn't you take him in the second?

I'm assuming he was on the end of the wrap around. If its a keeper league then thats a very good move!

That way you get both players you want, but whichever you think will do better, you pick second.

For me, Jamaal Charles is a second round pick because I got him at the turn.


All speculation.

Draft was very WR heavy, and my top two QB options were gone, so I took Roddy in the 2nd.

ETA: Got rid of Roddy early in a trade for DeSean.

3-5 in 9th place in a 12 team league. It's just been one of those crappy years. I'm like third in points scored but every team I play seeems to blow up when they play me.

Drafted Team

M. Stafford
A. Foster
D. Sproles
F. Jackson
B. Marshall
M. Austin
R. Wayne
R. Gronkowski
S. Johnson
C. Shorts

I don't remember the rest.

I didn't draft a defense or kicker. I've been rolling with Indianapolis and Vinateri most of the year. Oh and this is a PPR league.

I've done some major restructuring to my team this year. We have a 10 trade limit and I've made 9 so far. So far, it seems to have worked out and I've made the right trades at the right time.

As you can see, I only have 4 players from my original week 1 lineup still on my team (Safford,Bush,Bell,Moore)

** I've also had the following WRs in my lineup at some point this season: Megatron, A.Johnson, B.Marshall, Demaryius, & Cruz

got trade-fever this year but I like my team and am 6-2 and in 1st place. Also have insurance policies on each of my RBs.

12 Team - PPR

14 team league. I'm 7-1 and in first after having drafted SJax in 1st round! (We do QB RB WR FL FL TE)

Romo
Bush
Sjax
AJ
Boykin
J. Graham
Crosby
BENCH
McGahee
Shorts
Royal
J. Bell
Tolbert
T. Ginn
IR
Vereen

A couple regrets.

Drafting SJax in Round 1 when Forte was still available.
Trading Gordon for McGahee. I was desperate though. Vereen Sjax AND Bush were all out at the same time, so I went crazy and traded Gordon for McGahee since I didn't have J. Bell at that time.

All in all, Liking where I'm at. Can't wait til Vereen is back on the field.

6-2 in a 12 man PPR (Highest points right now)
I dropped a few backups (Mendenhall, Hopkins)
Dropped Cook and picked up Reed and shuffled my defenses around. But overall my starting lineup has stayed the same other than TE

Kaep
Charles
Bush
Marshall
VJAX
Garcon
Reed

Woodhead first bench player and Vereen stashed.
