I'm happy with my draft from the 10th slot. I entered the draft with a 0 RB mindset and stayed with it. Resulting, I ended up with some risky picks at WR but like my gambles in rounds 1-3:

Lamb at pick 10 could be a major bust or steal.

Wilson is ranked as a 1st rounder and I got him in round 2. I'm comfy with Adams in round 3.

I reached on Burrow in round 4, but .

I'll complain all year about my bad RBs.

I did use my Commissioner powers and swap Bob and I on Waiver Priority. Seemed the least I could do.

I'm happy with my team as well.  Now here's the thing Tecmo.  We don't know yet, who the #1 RB's of all 32 NFL teams are, or RB's who will come on, or WR's and Such.  We are going on last year and guessing on this year.  New stars always rise up each year.  And not always on Game One.  Remember Corey Dillon didn't start to get the ball until halfway through his rookie year.  So, Free Agency is just going to make all the teams strong as we roll along.  We had less teams, and a smaller roster, so Free Agency Pool should help teams help themselves and stay in The Hunt.

If you haven't figured out RB message me after our matchup week 3. I have to make a decision about Tony Pollard by week 5. 

Who would everyone start at QB1 between Murray and Burrow? I have both and I'm talking fantasy, not real ball.

Start Murray week 1 so I don't have to root against Burrow.

Right now i'd say it's a coin toss between the two. Murray is on the road in Buffalo and Burrow is at home against the Patriots. I'd lean Burrow in that case.

No one asked you.  Shut up!

What is everyone's biggest team weakness heading into the season? Mine is the RB2 slot.

Either way, at least I don't have to start Brock Burdy or Tua.

I wouldn't be afraid to start either. When you have the receiver corps SF has, and a RB who can turn a dump pass into a 90-yard TD, his numbers will look good.

I would say the same. But I think that's a given on how you approach the draft. If you go WR first, Your going to get stuck with a questionable #2 RB by the time you get back around to filling that spot. If you go the other way, your going to have questionable WR slots.

I've watched DDs win close to 3G with "Burdy" (lol) at QB over the past 2 years. He has a Pro Bowl caliber RB, TE, and WR corps to distribute the ball to. I may not start him against the Jets in week 1, but I'm good with my QBs at the moment.

Exactly! And, that WR corps is deeper than Teeth's mangina!

I just looked and see we play week 1. Why is he shitting on your QBs when he ain't even playing you? Did I miss something?

I'm having some fun because I have Burrow and Murray. I just need one owner in the league to make me an offer I can't refuse for one of the QBs. I randomly picked teams with a lower ranked fantasy QB. I should have mentioned the team starting Kirk Cousins instead of the Brock Purdy team.

He has a hankering for a big ole slice of Pacheco pie, but daddy's gonna need a lot more sugar for that to happen!

I just need you to drink a few beers, log in, and hit "accept" on the deal.
