cornholiohad my first draft tonight but not sure how to post without making a shitshow lol
YoungGun.I chose Aaron Rodgers last year with first pick and took a lot of shit from my buddies. He absolutely went off and I was laughing in their face. Draft A-Rod.
.complexyeah draft A-rod when he doesn't have nelson for the whole season and no cobb for a few weeks too.
don't listen to this guy, only qb that should be taken 1st round is luck, load up on backs cause they're in short supply this year
YoungGun.Cobb is fine and Davante Adams is a rising star. Rodgers makes anyone look good.

theBearJewPost your draft after so we can tell you it sucks. Thats how draft critiques work, right?
theBearJewSo I can pick up Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, Dante Cullpepper, or LaDainian Tomlinson, but I can't pick up Jarryd Haynes on the 49ers... WTF ESPN.
cornholiohe's available now
theBearJewAlso, start who, McFadden v NYG or Crowell v NYJ.
Granite_StateDo I play Alfred Morris against STL this week or is that a risky move...?
.Hugo.Do you have other options?
Granite_StateAlfred Blue vs. Carolina
Donte Moncreif vs. Jets
Its for my flex
I_liketobutterSo I have an RB question for you guys. I have 4 of them, need to play 2. Help me out here. Full PPR, 14 team
Lamar Miller - Playing the jaguars, I think this is the safest pick
David Johnson - Playing the bears, Ellington is hurt, Johnson sucks, could this be the week he sees the majority of the touches? His 55yd TD last game looks good at 14 points, but that's one catch.
Woodhead - Playing the bengals, I think another safe pick when playing Cin
Dion Lewis - Playing the Bills, yes its an NE RB, I had Vereen last year, I know how this goes, but if you watched the game last week he killed it. He had that fumble on the 1 sucked, but he looks like a solid player moving forward

eheathThis is not for the NS league, so I'm hoping y'all can help.
Do I start Stewart, Tevin Coleman or Sankey?
Stew is projected the most, but I've heard some talk about how he could have a tough week vs HOU defense and I agree.
Coleman could be a safe play, he is clearly RB1 for ATL and theyre playing the Giants so who knows.
Sankey is more of a risk but he could have another big game? Cle defense gave up a bunch to Ivory...
HELP
eheathMiller for sure,
David Johnson is interesting to me. Chris johnson will definitely take the majority of the ground touches, but Dave will be taking all the passes, which leads me to say for your full point ppr that he would be a great play.
Woodhead could be a bust, melvin might see the ball more this week.
I'd bail on Dion, Blount is back.
.Hugo.Miller for sure
Arians said chris johnson is gonna be the main back. I bet david sees the ball a few more times but its impossible to know. Id wait on him.
Woodhead is the back on passing downs and he even had the goaline snaps last week. Id play him over johnson.
Blount is back and going to be the main back. I wouldnt play lewis
.complexyeah draft A-rod when he doesn't have nelson for the whole season and no cobb for a few weeks too.
don't listen to this guy, only qb that should be taken 1st round is luck
YoungGun.Were you drunk? Luck 2TD 2INT
YoungGun.Cobb is fine and Davante Adams is a rising star. Rodgers makes anyone look good.
I_liketobutterThanks guys
Think I'm going to go with Miller and Woodhead this week. I'm really hoping johnson turns into the #1, I got him close to the last round knowing that Ellington would probably get hurt.
Blount coming back means little to Lewis' role, since he is more of the passing/screen play back then a plow it up the middle like Blount. Certainly takes away the goal line touches he may get, but I have Gronk for those :)
UncleJoeor you could draft him when hes still available in the beginning of the 3rd. Never take a qb in round 1 u fool.
proZachWith Ty Hilton possibly out, I gotta rearrange my wr/rb/flex
WR1: Antonio brown
WR2: golden Tate, Sammy Watkins, Reuben Randle, or Stevie Johnson
RB1: lesean mccoy (expected to play I think)
RB2: Rashad Jennings, or Danny woodhead
Flex: any one of them. Right now I'm considering putting in woodhead at flex, with Stevie Johnson my wr2. I hate sitting golden tate with his potential, especially vs Minnesota (I think), but Detroit sorta looks shitty
gleflochwho should I start in the flex? I am currently thinking LeGarrette Blount but im looking for input. My current lineup is:
Qb: Romo
RB:Jeremy Hill
RB:Carlos Hyde
WR: Antonio Brown
WR: Davante Adams
TE: Gronk
FLEX: Blount?
D:Browns
K Hauschka
Bench:
Ty hilton
bills d
ryan matherws
torrey smith
danny amendola
mariota
pierre garcon
YoungGun.Andrew Luck sucks ass
proZachBrees hasn't played up to par, ?injury with a mediocre Carolina team this week. Can possibly trade him up for Carson Palmer (can't believe his success so far...).
Question is, do I wait on brees getting back to regular form with his 0 receivers, or chance it on Palmer who's looked oddly decent.
YoungGun.Andrew Luck sucks ass
I_liketobutterAnother question for you guys:
I have gronk, 14 team full PPR. Guy wants to trade me Julius Thomas (stashed on my bench) for Percy harvin. I have no idea what to do, I was going to use Thomas as a flex since my flex right now is Marvin jones...Harvin getting injured frightens me and I feel like Thomas is going to turn into a TD machine
Looks like Thomas will be active today
theBearJewWith Marshawn out, should I trust Rawls in my lineup? My alternatives are Melvin Gordon, Andre Williams, or Willie Snead.
Or in another league where I am starting Rawls.. my other options are Charles Clay, Terrance Williams, or Marvin Jones.
scratchproteenIf this was me, I'd start Rawls in one and Clay in one.
Terrance williams is average at best and Marvin Jones is trapped in a RB carousel in Washington. Melvin Gordon has been disappointing so far this year, Andre Williams is going to score you 7.5 points. and who is Willie Snead? lol
Seattle really likes to run the ball, if beastmode is out that Rawls should give you decent production. Charles Clay has actually been playing pretty well, last 2 weeks he has like 200 yards and a touchdown and was thrown to more than 10 times last week. Plenty of upside.
theBearJewDub advice post.
I am annoyed with Lacy, want to trade. Got offered Andre Johnson and Hyde for him. Im thinking of countering for Hyde and James Jones, pretty sure he wont go for that but what do you guys think?
