Its the amount you bid. Highest bid wins. If there is a tie, the first owner that placed the bid is awarded the player.

That's what I did. Torrey Smith is so bad... I nominated him and Clams got wood and bid him up.

Might would trade CJ off in the droppings conference. 2 for 1. Would need RB and WR.

say it ain't so? Is there another bar there now? Or next door? I haven't hit up a game yet this year & did not know that.

The obvious
QB Andrew Luck: In ESPN leagues, Luck is, on average, the No. 16 quarterback off the board, just behind Jay Cutler and just ahead of Alex Smith. This might sound optimistic, but I can see Luck putting up pretty significant totals (3,600-4,000 yards). He is going to look remarkably comfortable and familiar in Bruce Arians' offense right out of the gate -- the Colts did great work in the draft to find some weapons for Luck -- and the Colts will be playing from behind a lot this season. I don't think it's merely hype that has him being drafted higher than plenty of more established starters.

QB Robert Griffin III: I don't see RG3 putting up quite the same totals as Luck because he faces a steeper learning curve, but he does have a better set of weapons. Plus, Griffin can use his feet in the red zone -- though I can assure you the Redskins don't want games to turn into a regular display of RG3's running ability. I'd draft him lower than Luck, but he is being taken four quarterbacks earlier on average.

RB Doug Martin: He is being taken No. 30 among running backs, and I wouldn't put a 1,000-yard season out of the question for a healthy Martin. He is reliable as a runner, holds onto the ball (where LeGarrette Blount loses points) and will catch passes, adding value.

RB David Wilson: The Giants didn't take the explosive Wilson in the first round as an insurance plan. The stretch where Ahmad Bradshaw missed four games last season really limited the Giants running game, and I can see a 50-50 split in carries. Bradshaw has carried more than 175 times just once in five seasons. Wilson will pick up the other half.

Why not:

WR Stephen Hill: I know, I know. He is already a starter. But Hill has a lot to learn about more complex passing schemes and route-running, and the Jets are still finding ways to get Tim Tebow more involved in the offense. Suffice to say, "fantasy potency" and "Jets passing game" don't belong in the same sentence.

RB Trent Richardson: I don't doubt the ability; I just want to see him healthy. The Browns should be careful with him, and I suspect they will be.

Don't be surprised
RB Isaiah Pead: Ranked No. 64 on ESPN draft boards among running backs, Pead should be much higher. He gives the Rams running game the explosiveness it has lacked, and Steven Jackson's carry total dipped by 70 from 2010 to 2011. The Rams might want to see that number drop further. Pead could be a steal.

TEs Coby Fleener/Dwayne Allen: Combined, I can see this tandem catching 50-60 passes for 800-1,000 yards. Luck loves his tight ends, and these guys could be touchdown-makers, particularly in the red zone. I'd go with Fleener first, but don't sleep on Allen.

WR Alshon Jeffery: He has looked good early and becomes a constant matchup advantage if teams want to help on Brandon Marshall. I'm leery of saying Jeffery can be a big yardage guy this season because the Bears are determined to run better and spread the ball around in the passing game, but he could quickly become the No. 2 man behind Marshall and be a touchdown poacher.

WR Kendall Wright: If Kenny Britt gets suspended, Wright could pick up the slack. He is ranked No. 52 among wide receivers in selection order.

RB LaMichael James: Unless Alex Smith becomes a quarterback I haven't yet seen, there is no guarantee that the new additions to the San Francisco passing game will amount to more explosiveness for this offense. In handing the ball to James, as well as throwing to him, Jim Harbaugh can create big plays without asking Smith to stretch his comfort zone. I wouldn't be surprised to see James get his share of touches.

WR Travis Benjamin: You won't be taking Cleveland pass-catchers high in any draft, but Benjamin is a sleeper. I could see him getting a lot of Mohamed Massaquoi's reps and creating some big plays for an offense that could use them


quote:

Why not:

WR A.J. Jenkins: The first-round pick is a fourth or fifth option in the San Francisco passing game. That doesn't scream fantasy value.

Sleepers
WR LaVon Brazill: A draft sleeper out of Ohio, he could get plenty of first-team reps this season on a team where Reggie Wayne and Austin Collie are the top wide receiver options.

WR Rueben Randle: He provides size and matchup problems that backups Jerrel Jernigan and Domenik Hixon don't. He could work his way into the mix early, and we have seen guys explode if Eli Manning finds a comfort zone with them. Hakeem Nicks' foot issues are also in play.

RB Cyrus Gray: This is a player with legitimate breakaway speed who dropped to the late rounds only because of health. Jamaal Charles is coming off an ACL tear, and Peyton Hillis lacks explosiveness and has a tendency to put the ball on the ground. Gray could get his shot at some point.

WR T.J. Graham: Buffalo could use some run-after-the-catch ability outside of splitting C.J. Spiller out, and Graham can flat-out fly. Chan Gailey should find some touches for him.

TE Michael Egnew: The Miami passing game could be limited by its quarterbacks, but Egnew could come on later because he has great hands and athleticism. A young quarterback can be helped by a tight end that not only separates but has a wide catch radius. That's Egnew.

WR T.Y. Hilton: Arians got the ball to a number of wide receivers in Pittsburgh, and if he floods coverages in Indy, Hilton could be a sleeper. He is probably a slot guy, but Hilton has plenty of explosiveness and run-after-the-catch ability.

TE Taylor Thompson: A defensive end in college, the Titans hope Thompson can be the next Antonio Gates or Jimmy Graham. With Thompson, it's all about the profile -- 6-foot-6 and 260 pounds for a guy who can really run. Don't grab him expecting anything soon, but he is a fun sleeper to watch.
