[QUOTE="Snarf Zagyg, post: 9453278, member: 7023840"] Okay, did the big money draft last night. There are extenuating circumstances, but whatever. Format- 1/2 PPR. No kicker. Lineups- QB, 2RB, 2WR, 2FLEX (RB/WR/TE), DST Snake draft (I know, real players do auction, but this is an old ritual). I was picking 10th out of 12 teams. Also? Hard to get value at RB/WR- in our drafts, they are always picked early and often, and most teams don't get QBs until very late. QB: Josh Allen RBs: Jahmyr Gibbs, Derrick Henry, Zeke (am I worried? yes, yes I am). WRs: DK Metcalf, George Pickens, Diontae Johnson, Josh Palmer, Rashod Bateman, Josh Downs, Khalil Shakir, Demario Douglas* TEs: Dalton Kincaid, Taysom Hill (also allowed to start as QB, but that would be stupid...) D: Chiefs. Analysis- Not too happy, but this is a tough league. No one has a great team. Obviously, I need the Bills to do well, and you can ask any Bills fan how that usually works out. If Allen is a superstar, I should be okay. If he isn't, or is injured early, my season will likely go up in flames (see also, Dalton Kincaid and my flyer on Shakir). The big issue is my RBs. Zeke sucks, and I know it. So if even one of the two top RBs is a dud, I am also in trouble. This is going to be my area of focus (other than rooting for the Bills). WRs- went for value. On the plus side, I think I cleaned up in terms of value. On the minus side, I am not sure that the strategy of "Pick awesome WRs on teams with QBs that can't get the ball to them" has ever made a fantasy owner happy. I actually really like the value pick of Josh Palmer, but the fact that I am starting him week one is not a good sign. Lots of looking at the waiver wire. Also, for people that play in public leagues? It's a lot easier drafting against people who don't care than against people who are trying to screw you and take your money.** *Douglas will be dropped shortly. **With the exception of DEREK! and his sixth round pick. Seriously, Juju? You won't be hearing the end of that for a long time. [/QUOTE]
