2012 Fantasy Football Thread

I'm sorry I meant david wilson not Doug Martin. For some reason I keep mixing their names up.

Definitely hold onto David Wilson. Bradshaw just injured his hand and has injury problems in the past. IMO I wouldn't want a Patriots RB because Belichick is almost as infuriating as Shanahan is when it comes to fantasy RBs. Also, DO NOT pick up any Redskins RB unless you want an aneurysm. The Skins will have at least 3 different RBs who start this year and it will change every week, it's not worth the headache.

I would say hold onto Ridley for now unless you have a better RB or WR you can pick up. I know Ridley recently injured his knee in practice on Thursday and of course the Pats haven't released how severe the injury is.

Vincent brown for the chargers broke his ankle last night. Not sure how long he will be out. Just FYI for anyone drafting today.

Looks like the guy in front of me may take Brady at #3. Leaves me with an interesting choice if he does that. I have Julio as a keeper, plus DeMarco Murray and LeSean McCoy. Do I take Calvin Johnson anyway and just have a ridiculous WR corps, or take Brees.

No wrong answer. I keep going back and forth. Might just be a gametime decision about how I feel at that moment.

[bushwack]

Bliz, I would probably take Megatron and then try to find a QB like Stafford, Newton, Rivers, Ryan, Eli, or Romo. However, like you said there's really no wrong decision you can make between him & Brees.

My 14 league team PPR:

QB: Matt Stafford & Joe Flacco
RB: Darren McFadden, Reggie Bush, Ryan Williams, Evan Royster, Peyton Hillis, Alex Green
WR:Jordy Nelson, Dez Bryant, Torrey Smith, Greg Little
TE: Greg Olsen
DEF: Buffalo
KICKER: Robbie Gould

My team drafted this afternoon:

QB - Brees (1), Dalton (11)
RB - McFadden (2), Peterson (3), Sproles (7), Gerhart (9), Royster (14)
WR - Brandon Marshall (4), Stevie Johnson (5), Meachum (8), Hankerson (13), Britt (15)
TE - Hernandez (6), Dickson (12)
DST - Denver (10), Minnesota (16)

K will be added with 1 of 2 free add/drops (my league has 2 "injured" roster spots).

Thoughts?

RB could be a worry spot. You've got one RB coming off a torn ACL, one who can't stay healthy, one who is a predominately pass catching and 3rd down back, and one who is in a rotation with 2 or 3 other guys. Everything else looks real good though.

I drafted Peterson with the expectation he will come on in the second half. And McFadden has too much potential to pass on. If e can stay healthy (huge if), he could easily be the highest scoring fantasy back. Wanted Foster, but he went #1 overall and I picked 7 out of 14.

Yeah, that's why I said could be. If everyone stays healthy, then you'll be fine.

In a14 man league your team is stacked I think. Good drafting. I like drafting in the middle rounds.

QB P Manning, Cutler
RB DeMarco Murray (I can't believe I drafted him), Michael Turner, Doug Martin
WR AJ Green, Bowe, Titus Young, Laurent Robinson
TE Sleepy Davis

Aside from drafting a Cowboy, I feel pretty good about this team....

Pretty solid for a 14-teamer

Thanks..I wanted to take DMC over Murray, but in a shallow league I couldn't take on the injury potential. Yes, I know Murray was hurt last year.

[MLSKINS]

Jake Locker is starting in Tennessee....

I would be happy with that team in a 10 man league. But if you could havegotten DMC over Muray then you made a huge mistake!
