Title: Fantasy Foobtball 2012
Post by: halfrack33 on Sep 04, 2012, 10:20:31 PM
Anyone else into fantasy football?? This is my first year doing it and I'm pretty pumped! What does everyone else have for Teams?
Here's my roster, just need to sub out Lynch for Williams in week one and get rid of Sanchez who I got stuck with after a sarcastic pick. I'm thinking Andy Dalton or Russell Wilson.

STARTERS
Matt Ryan
LeSean McCoy
Marshawn Lynch
Julio Jones
Jordy Nelson
Doug Martin
Jermichael Finley
Mason Crosby
Eagles Defense

BACKUPS
Kevin Smith
Antonio Brown
DeAngelo Williams
Justin Blackman
Brent Celek
James Jones
Mark Sanchez

Solid roster halfrack. Jordy is supposed to blow up this year...but with that receiving corps of GB who knows. Is you league PPR (point per reception)? That can change things. I am in one that is and one that isn't. A lot of the smaller backs like Darren Sproles who catch a lot of passes are way more valuable in PPR. Good luck man...so pumped that football is back!

Never done it, would love to get into it but don't want it to interfere with my insane schedule in the fall. Looks like a blast I am a walking stat sheet in my head like Rainman.


Fyi. I am not a fan of him but if you get a chance I suggest picking up Eddie Royal. I think with manning at the helm in Denver this year he may finally be what he has supposed to have been...........

Honestly, I've never been a huge football fan because it was in the middle of hunting season, but I think this will be fun. It's 10 guys, 5 of which have never played fantasy. It was a $50 buy in and payouts are 350, 100, 50. I'm most likely taking the year off from hunting, so I'll spend my little free time with this.This league does count PPR as well as additional points for TD's and yardages. I only made one HUGE mistake.... I was third pick and was so focused on getting running back's early that I didn't realize that Aaron Rodgers was available and I picked LeSean McCoy instead... IDIOT!!! He's still a good choice, but definitely won't have the points of Rodgers.

That's rough. I would have taken Rodgers first overall if I had the chance...maybe that is a little bias because I am a GB fan. I had the 10th pick in my $50 money draft so I got Calvin Johnson. By far the best WR in the league but still wish I had a better pick. Good luck this year man.

I'll be out of town for 10 weeks for work and I just bought a house that I need to get done and moved into asap so it seems like trying to fit in hunting will mean putting other things off which will just make me more stressed in the long run. Right now, I commute an hour each way to work, usually work 10 hours or so a day, and am trying to finish the house on nights and weekends to save money. I'll probably get out for some ducks a couple times, but that's about it unfortunately. It's killing me, but I just need to get my personal life organized before devoting time to hobbies. BUT, at least I'll be hunting vicariously through you guys!

I know... sad. Johnson's still an amazing pick, I wanted him bad. I think he went 7th in our draft? He is on the cover of madden this year though  :o

Haha sucks when life gets in the way! Congrats on the house though.

Yeah he is a beast. I just hate rooting for someone in the same division as my team. I think Brandon Mashall will kill it this year too...sucks.

Wow! Did you have to calculate all the points back then by tracking your players, or did ESPN do it for you?

I have two RBs with 100+ yards and two WRs with 100+ yards and I am still going to lose...unless Ganakowski kicks me 25 points which isnt likely...

I have Matt Ryan(31pts) and Roddy White(10pts), 41 total points! A little disappointed with Roddy White though... ;)

Ended up making a lot of moves and getting Rodgers...doesn't look like I am making the playoffs though. Anyone else have any luck?

Rodgers was the only thing close I had to a bright spot all season.  The rest of my roster sucked.  I'm 5-7, and 7th place in a 10 team league.   ::)

I haven't been following this but I picked up Bryce Brown this week and he was huge...I will be 10-3 after tonight unless Eli and Nicks completely suck...playoff start next week and I have a bye because I am the #1 seed...
