    I have Peterson,3rd pick. Was delighted to see him still on the board instead of Jamal Charles. Now i am not.
    Its not looking good given every thing about the nfls conduct policy during the week i would be very surprised to see him back on the field before he is due in court.

    Looks like he will be back playing next weekend according to Vikings statement, they are going to let the legal proceedings run their course, interesting to see now if NFL intervene.

    Lucky to get away with not starting the Bears defence after picking them up on waivers. They were on put on my bench and didn't notice til their game started.

    It their anyway to set that up automatically , as in an empty starting spot gets automatically filled before game time.

    I've been caught with this two weeks in a row! Picked up the Packers D last week leaving 22 points on the bench. Lucky the person I was playing had ray rice in their team!

    Some dudes have inactive players on their team. Like one lad has Ray Rice still starting. I've had to earn my victories, just seems a bit crap :/

    Calvin Johnson as a first round pick is really backfiring on me only managed 1 touchdown from my RBs and WR last week

    There really is a lot of luck involved. A lot of the first round picks did not live up to expectations, got injured or had other issues. At least Johnson should be back soon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 225 ✭✭Blue Shamrock


    True had hoped to get Adrian Peterson instead!

    Yep every fantasy league been turned on its head from the 1st rounders just not delivering or being hurt or beating their kids. I am finding with such a big league of 16 teams its really tough to find any players of quality off waivers

    U can't say there's luck involved. If u drafted a rb u shud have handcuffed. In ap case asiata was fine for few weeks now McKinnon is doing grand.

    AP beating his kid was unforeseen when the draft happened. It pretty much is bad luck that happened if you drafted him. Obviously you can go to the waivers, but hardly any (if any) of those have the production that a first rounder should have.

    Made the playoffs 11-0. Pretty happy with that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,241 ✭✭✭Vanolder


    I missed the draft and have been chasing ever since- in a 16 team league you need to hit the ground running and I didn't-waivers are a nightmare. Just as well i'm sitting in a playoff spot in my other league.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,021 ✭✭✭lbj666


    Ya a lot of lessons learned with me. Your right you really need to hit ground running with a 16 man league, there isn't really any depth on waivers beyond the first few weeks and when there was I was way down on the priority list from making less meaningful changes.

    Got hit by 2 qb injuries, injury trouble at RB, star RB suspended and numerous players dropping down the team depth chart.

    Time to go back to spread betting i reckon :P

    First week of the playoffs not a bad time to reach the 100 point mark for the first time even with Kap at Qb, just a pity it's in the consolation bracket!


  • Registered Users Posts: 57 ✭✭youngco87


    Not sure how I made the playoffs! The weak division helped but I was surprised to get through last week too. Now I play a team with Big Ben, Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell...hopefully we get the terrible steelers this week!

    Ah, you're playing me so. I rely heavy on Bell and Brown obviously so hopefully I will get the good Steelers this week. They did well last week when I wasn't playing anyone, so they'll probably be muck this weekend.

    I've enjoyed this league. The 16 man format is pretty good - I just wish we had a flex position inside of the 3rd WR slot.

    Anyway, best of luck Is Flacco Elite.

    Congrats on the title. Your team was superb this week. God damn OBJ!

    Really enjoyed the league overall. I'll be up for it again next season.

    Cheers, Wilson, Foster, Maclin & Bryant were great for me all season and Beckham was a great pickup.
    In for next year, bring it on!!!
