2013 Fantasy Football Thread

[AJ]

I have two drafts this year, first one was last night. Ended up with:

Multiple Gore-Gasms
QB Colin Kaepernick 17
RB Stevan Ridley 32
RB LeSean McCoy 40
WR Cecil Shorts 10
WR Steve Johnson 7
WR Riley Cooper 1
TE Jimmy Graham 31
D/ST Patriots D/ST 1
K Phil Dawson 2
BE Frank Gore 30
BE Daryl Richardson 9
BE Vernon Davis 10
BE Darrius Heyward-Bey 1
BE Kenbrell Thompkins 1
BE Tavon Austin 5
BE DeAndre Hopkins 3

Shows what I paid in the auction draft as well. I'm hoping to trade for a WR or have one of my rookies really pan out, but other than that I am happy as hell with a stacked RB and TE base.

How many teams in this league? And I assume it's a standard re-draft league? I'm looking forward to getting our dynasty league off the ground on Sunday!

 

[AJ]

There is 10 teams and yeah it's a work re-draft every year.

 

[minitrucker@heart]

Monday started an all new dynasty/empire league with IDP. 30 total roster spots....slightly insane.

 

[Picklz]

30 roster spots? Jesus, I think ours has 16 + 4 or 5 on a taxi squad. We don't have IDP though so I guess that kind of explains such a big roster.

 

[minitrucker@heart]

1 qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 flex, 1 te, 1 k, 2 dl, 2 lb, 2 db. Starting.

This was our only draft. You keep all players year to year, with a rookie only draft, with a draft order based on previous years results (non snake)

Was able to acquire Stafford, A.P. Steven Jackson, Brandon Marshall, Fitzgerald, Colston, Jared cook, and Reggie bush in my flex spot. PPR as well

 

[Picklz]

Yeah we're starting up a dynasty league as well this year w/ rookie drafts in following years, no PPR or IDP though. I think it's gonna be a lot of fun.

I have two drafts coming up soon... one Sunday evening and one Monday evening.
Sunday is my PPR 'keeper' league, 10 teams- Kept Ridley and Wallace from last year. Both were late rd draft picks.
Monday is a new league... 'keeper' starting after this year.- Picking 6th, in a 10 team league.

 

[AJ]

I just trade Ridley for Antonio Brown and Andrew Luck. Gets me another WR and has me sitting with QBs Kap and Luck, which could be a great combo.

 

[minitrucker@heart]

If I get one of the top 12 qbs I don't bother with a second, I prefer skill position (wr/rb) depth

 

[Picklz]

Well that was the most retarded fantasy draft I've EVER seen, especially for a dynasty league, we have one guy with 5 quarterbacks (Brady, Eli Manning, Carson Palmer, Romo, Wilson) and another guy with 4 QB's and then 2 kickers which he spent $16 on LOL. So messed up.

 

[AJ]

Yeah, that was EPIC, ly dumb. From the software fubar to the draft dee dee dee moves... unreal. I'm not trading with anyone to help unfuck any of that. So god damn funny!!! lol

 

[ohsixspeedsix]

You also have to remember, a few of these people have never played or haven't played in a while. So they are bound to be a little derpy. Bryant just straight up had no idea what he was doing and the website fucked up A LOT of other people's picks, mine included.

 

[AJ]

ditto on the website, lol, maybe it was adjusting to how the first couple rounds went and tossed logic out the window.. haha!

 

[Picklz]

I will agree the website could have been better, however, if you were going to rely on being able to draft AFK I would have expected people to have tested that functionality out ahead of time. Yes Josh should have tested it and let people know if it was an issue, and he absolutely should have been watching the draft teh entire time and when it started skipping people should have fixed it, that's on him.

However, it's 100% unacceptable that so many people had not even logged into the site or viewed the drafting room prior to the draft, sorry but that's the truth. In any event glad we're past that and can get some of these trades going!

 

[AJ]

There was nothing to "try out" on our end. I tooled around and the site seems to be just fine and didn't seem to allow for anything to test at that point. Either way, I'm going to Gore'gasm all over everyone's face, and they'll all love it!

 

[minitrucker@heart]

I absolutely refuse to be in any draft where people auto draft. You can't make the draft, too bad we will replace you. Commish refuses to replace guy and allows auto draft, you will be replacing me, because I will not deal with crap like that. I've been in leagues like this, and 2 teams with 6 qbs not only screws their teams, it screws the majority of other teams in the league. In 2 of the league's I am in there are shenanigans like this going on, and I told them to find someone else for next year.

/rant

 

[Picklz]

Well, it was really only people wanting to auto draft from a draft list for their bench/taxi squad, so not really a big deal, but yeah I made it known to josh I was kinda pissed at some of the stuff that went on, oh well NBD should still be a lot of fun going forward.

 

[AJ]

I don't mind someone who auto drafts, it's their loss. I draft up till the last guy, in my mind EVERY pick is an important one. I don't do casual fantasy football... lol
