My favorite draft strategy was whoever took every suspended player in the league with some ACL recoveries on the side. That team should be sick after the first few weeks.
Oh, and screw urinalcake. Taking like 3 players the pick before I planned on snagging them. F youuuuuuuu

Thx for showing up and drafting guys. Only member I haven't received the $150 entry fee from is coachmcneil72. Will be a really bad showing if he doesn't pay up soon. Guy talked a big game for auto-drafting.

I got Arian Foster in the 9th round, which I couldn't believe. Took him the 5th in my money league. Recent reports have him back in 2-4 weeks. Also snagged Martavius Bryant later too.

Yahoo draft rankings were accurate in the league I was in last year. The predicted top 2 (myself and PackersBacker) finished 1st and 3rd.

I thought you got Arian in the 6th. I know because I had my eye on him. Either way, he'll be huge for your team when he gets back. Plus it's looking like he could be back after only 4-6 weeks.

You're right. I think I was shocked when I saw him ranked at 99 or whatever and that number stuck in my head. They're saying 2-4 right meow.

Of course you had your eye on him, he was either injured or suspended to go along with the theme of your team
That was your team, right?

I think I would've done better, but I had to piss from Rd. 3 until it was over.

Lmao. Yep, that be me.
QB- Tom Brady - Took a gamble and it paid off as his suspension is lifted, so I got a top 5 QB in the 7th round
RB- LeVeon Bell - Suspended 2 games, but should be the MVP in a PPR league
RB- Carlos Hyde
WR- Randall Cobb- "injured" but will play week 1
WR- DeAndre Hopkins
TE- Antonio Gates - Suspended 4 games, but that helped me get him in round 12, Owen Daniels will hold it down til he's back
Flex- Julian Edelman - "injured" but all indications are that he'll play week 1, should be a PPR beast with Brady's suspension lifted
I also took Gurley and he probably won't be full strength until a few games in. Honestly, after Bell is back, my team will be fine. If Gates can keep it up, he'll be a 12th round steal.

I was aiming for Leveon Bell and Brady. Not so much on Gurley and Gates, but they were good deals where I got them.
Plus someone took the TE I was aiming for (cough...Cupcakes...cough).

Yeah and definitely not looking so bad now with Brady playing week 1.
So, is anybody looking to unload a decent RB2?? I sort of overdrafted WRs and could use a RB that I'm more confident in.

Yeah I noticed some people went super RB heavy. A little surprising in a PPR league.
Normally I'd be willing to work out a trade, but I'm not exactly stacked at RB. I need everyone I have.

Unfortunately he is on bye weeks 1-17 and never plays in the preseason; so we might have to look for someone to fill in during the bye.
