Matt in KC Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hi guys. I'd love any feedback about my team, and have a few week 1 questions below. League: 12 teams Pretty typical scoring, with the following notes: 6 points for passing TD, .5 PPR, 2 point bonus for yards: 300 passing or 100 rushing or receiving Team Name: Walking Wounded 4.8 QB - Michael Vick 3.5 RB - Fred Jackson 2.8 RB - Adrian Peterson 1.5 WR - Calvin Johnson 6.8 WR - Dez Bryant 7.5 WR - Stevie Johnson (RB/WR/TE Flex) 5.5 TE - Aaron Hernandez 14.8 K - Rob Bironas 10.8 DEF - Green Bay Packers Bench 12.8 QB - Christian Ponder 9.5 RB - Michael Bush 11.5 RB - Rashard Mendenhall 8.8 RB - Isaac Redman 13.5 WR - Austin Collie 15.5 DEF - NY Giants So, this year I when with several players that I just think are "gamers". My questions are likely obvious: Who was a reach where I picked them? Sit Peterson? ...for? (Did I screw myself?) Sit Stevie? ...for Collie? I wasn't too concerned until the groin articles came out yesterday, hopefully just PR fluff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffOrange Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 The Packers were a reach. With Vick you want a better backup qb, preferably a Schaub or somebody there. I personally would not have taken Peterson or Hernandez but that's about where they go in most drafts so whatever.. Dez Bryant is a steal where you got him. Yah I would probably play Bush over Peterson. Play Stevie if he plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt in KC Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 Thanks for the feedback, BuffOrange. Yeah, I was impulsive on Peterson. If I'd read more, I would have waited longer to take him. I saw he was running strong and fully confident about being ready to play. Why no Hernandez, besides the obvious loathing of the Patriots? I've taken a couple in the past and have been unable to root for them. I was following the crowd on the Packers. There was a run on the defenses and I didn't really like the players still on the board (Robert Meachem, Greg Little, Roy Helu etc.). For defense, kicker, even TE, I wanted picks with late byes so I could use as many slots as possible on picking up hot WRs or surprise/situational RBs which seem to emerge the first few weeks each year. I have no idea what to expect from Bush in Chicago this year. I'm as worried about seeing his role as Peterson's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
