LittleHurt05 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 To not mix up the NFL thread with fantasy talk, post all fantasy football comments/questions/complaints here. If you just drafted the most awesome team, brag about it here. If you are pissed at a pothead running back on your team getting suspended, b**** about it here. If you can't seem to answer the question, "Do I start Jay Cutler or Peyton Manning", ask it in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 My first and main draft is on Sunday. Have Marshawn as a 4th round keeper and Jordy Nelson as a 5th round keeper to start it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2nd_city_saint787 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) With Sproles in Philly now do you guys think Adrian Peterson or Matt Forte might be a better pick at 1 overall than Shady? Norv Turner is the OC in Minny now and he likes throwing the ball to the back so that might make AP even more valuable. (It's a keeper league, and Charles has been kept) Edited August 21, 2014 by scs787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Had a poor 2013 season - my keepers are 9th and 10th round. Cordarrelle Patterson and Andre Ellington. The good news is, I have the 2nd overall pick and at the moment I can choose either Adrian Peterson or Matt Forte in round 1 and Aaron Rodgers in round 2. I am in PPR, what sleepers would you all recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be looking at Shady in the first since I'm seriously considering AP or Forte. I think Sproles(and maybe even Barner who the Eagles traded for) is gonna take away a lot of value from McCoy.

bmags Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I had my auction draft last week (auctions, while awesome, are such a pain in the ass to find a date for). Had excess money so I blocked a threat by grabbing 3 qbs (newton, kaepernick, rgiii). Now in pain with not having a spot to get sleepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems odd that Charles could be kept but the other 3 couldn't. Looking at the league now, Forte(Fear Boners) and APs(Papabears) teams haven't made their keeper picks yet, so it looks like I might not get to choose from those 2. I had McCoy last year, and with the top overall pick making him my keeper would be silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lose the corresponding draft pick (10th round or higher) where their keeper was drafted the year before - and only keep two guys. If the guy was drafted after 10 or undrafted, he's a 10th round keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) So Zac Stacy didn't start for St. Louis in the last pre-season game...is that troubling? I just drafted Stacy today and I'm already afraid I made the wrong pick. Stacy's been bad in pre-season and Cunningham has been really good. Outside of that, I like my team a lot. I'm in 0.5 PPR with a flex, 12 teams. QB Foles WR Nelson WR Crabtree RB Charles RB Stacy TE Olsen W/R Maclin DEF Denver K Walsh Bench: E. Sanders, Ridley, Boldin, McCown, McFadden I really like my depth at WR. Edited August 24, 2014 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 First draft tonight. 10 team PPR. One keeper - mine was Ball in the 5th. QB T. Brady RB L. McCoy RB M. Ball WR A. Brown WR P. Garcon Flex M. Crabtree TE J. Reed Bench: RB: P. Thomas, A. Williams, D. Brown, L. Blount WR: K. Wright, J. Gordon, A.

I usually don't pay too much attention, and just follow the buzz, but Ourlads seemingly stays up to date on things. As for Stacy....IMO, he's the most overrated RB in the league. Averaged just 3.9 YPC last year(31st in the league) and his numbers only looked good because the Rams QB Kellen Clemons and they were "forced" to run the ball a ton. Stacy was 11th in the league in carries despite only being the starter for 12 games(Only 4 carries before he started starting)....I can't imagine that volume of carries continues with Cunningham and 3rd round pick Tre Mason around as well.
