Supposed to finish first and came in first. The projections are only for the lineup you have in at the current time. Obviously once you make trades, drops, play against idiots , etc. things change. Of course nobody can guess how many points a player will get. I like playing ppr and the projections more than standard. Seems less random to me.

Seems like you got 1st more due to the lower scores of your opponents.

we did a yahoo auto-draft, I was able to get Alfred Morris after draft(before week 1), got Spiller with the waiver.(guy used the #1 waiver to grab someone after the draft, so I had#1 waiver)

Traded Spiller, Andre,& Cj2K after week 2...for Ray Rice and Marshall(guy had Ray Rice, Fred Jackson(injured), beanie wells, Jonathan Stewart)...and that guy finished is currently in 2nd "Slap", but will drop to 5th with a loss

Projected 5-8.

Was 4-1 after 5 weeks with only loss by less than 2 points.

Ended up 6-7.

Lots of injuries, shitty luck, and my players being yardage whores who can't score TDs. 3 losses by combined 10 points.

Not to mention losing another game because Phillip Rivers decided to implode in the second half against Denver.

Seriously... I took great pleasure in knocking his team out of the playoff picture.

A team which wouldn't have been there at all if you didn't give it a nice boost.

Major props to taking a horrible team and almost cracking the top 6.
