`NG wrote:Just did my $50 buy in league, which was a keeper league that had an owner abandon a team. So I got a shot at some good pickups:
(3)- Adrian Peterson- RB
(22)- David Wilson- RB
(27)- Brandon Marshall- WR
(46)- Maques Colston- WR
(51)- Matthew Stafford- QB
(70)- Ryan Matthews- RB
(75)- Greg Olsen- TE
(94)- Cincinnati Defense--> Purely a fan move, but it will most likely work out fine.
(99)- Steve Johnson- WR
(118)- Some linebacker, shitty league rules- autopicked while I was on the phone
(123)- Justin Tucker- K
(142) Tyler Eifert- TE
(147)- Pierre Thomas- RB
(166)- Alex Smith- QB
(171)- Jacquizz Rodgers- RB
(190)- Malcom Floyd- WR
Things went pretty well, but getting stuck with autopick due to a very poorly timed phone call kinda effed me towards the end.
ya, adrian peterson #3 is a no brainer. don tknow how that happened lol. there had to be someone better than david wilson at that spot.. guys like chris johnson and MJD are almost always there. he does get a little added value with brown out but there was a reason that an undrafted guy who bounced around from team to team (andre brown) was able to steal the very important goal line duties from him. he's just not the big strong RB you want. marshall right there is a good pick and good value. he usually goes in the 2nd. and while i understand rob's concern about coleston, i think he is the only wide out you can trust and start every week for the saints. he is just inconsistent from week to week because there are times he disappears from the game plan. but his end of the season numbers will be pretty solid overall. it's just safer to draft consistency. i'd rather a guy give me 9-11 guaranteed every week from my WR2 spot rather than a guy who is gonna give me 19 and then 4 and then 18 and 6 etc. that is about the right spot for stafford, especially if there is a run of QBs going off the board early in the draft. although as rob said, it would be better if you could grab him in the 6th or 7th..... but it sometimes depends on how the draft shakes out. i hate ryan mathews and i wouldnt draft him if i had 20 bench spots. greg oleson is picked pretty high right here. TE is a spot just like QB where i am going to wait hardcore. actually, in one of my leagues, i picked gates with literally my LAST pick. i got my defense, kicker, and defensive player and then got gates with my dead last pick because i knew he was going to go undrafted so i didnt want to waste something other than my dead last pick on him. greg olson will be just as random and unpredictable as a guy like cook, cameron, or gates who are all available near the very bottom of the draft. there wont be much fall off. yet you can get them 5-7 picks apart. i also hate how you wasted a bench spot to back him up. only TE you should handcuff is gronkowski due to his health concerns, and due to the fact that sudfeld is actually a very talented back up who would step in and produce in that offense. using a 2nd pick on a TE is a waste of a roster spot and you are passing up a RB/WR that would add depth to your roster (which you are lacking greatly) defense is solid but picked too high as you already know but i used to do that for vikings D just so i can root for something purple. steve johnson is good value there. im not in love with him as a player but any player in the draft becomes a great pick if you get them low enough. pierre thomas is near worthless. alex smith is an underrated player on the field, but in fantasy there are probably better back up QBs you could stash (bradford, cutler, dalton to name a few) I am not sure how late you got rodgers but i believe they plan to use him a little to keep jackson fresh. the dude is 30 afterall. he's a starting caliber RB as well if jackson goes down so great pick there. i think i would have grabbed toby gerhart at the end of the draft too because that guy is a stud if he is needed to replace an injured AP
all in all, i think your team is very so so. you have a stud in AP, but your RB depth is for shit and your overall depth in general isn't very good. but if your league has favorable passing stats, stafford wilson and marshal will do very well for you and AP will do his thing ofcourse. your QB/RB/RB/WR/WR are strong but you lack production after that
