OFFICIAL 2014 FANTASY FOOTBALL THREAD

 
 
 
Romo or Cutler for week 1?
Mmmmmmmm...I'd lean towards Cutler.
Same thing I was thinking but you know Romo has those out of nowhere games
Yea, that '07 opener against NYG (among others) def. came to mind because I was very close to swaying towards Romo. I think it's a win-win situation for you this week tho, barring injury.
 
Matt Stafford was going so early in every league I drafted him. I wanted him bad but I wasnt going to reach under any circumstances. Didnt draft a QB until round 7 in any league.
Def. played it the right way. Stock up on those backs && WR's while everyone else reaches for their prized QBs. I went mid/back of Round 6 for all my teams' QBs this year (Foles, Cam, Griffin, Romo). 

Who'd you get at QB?
 
Here's my team for my main league:

QB - Cam Newton
RB - LeSean McCoy, Zac Stacy
WR - Percy Harvin, Emmanuel Sanders
TE - Greg Olsen
K - Robbie Gould
DEF - Denver
Flex - Hakeem Nicks
BN - Darren Sproles, Jonathan Grimes, Danny Amendola, Cecil Shorts, Derek Carr (last pick)

I know my WR is pretty weak, any advice?
 
Who else has that dread feeling like they should have taken Player X instead of Player Z? In a 10 team standard money league. The whole morning I'm feeling like

I went Eddie Lacy, D. Thomas, Julio Jones, Vincent Jackson and Vereen when I could have went Lacy, Ball/Gio, J. Jones, V. Jackson and Garcon

Now I'm offering Thomas and Vereen for Ball and Boldin, ya or nay?

How many teams are in your league? Can critique your squad a bit better/more accurately by knowing.

I feel the same way with a couple of my picks too man. Still replaying choosing RG3 over Romo in one of my drafts. I'm okay with it, but idk.

Golden Tate over Brandin Cooks in the 7th round of that same draft too. Besides those two, I feel I did as well as I could've, considering who I wanted && when I got them.

RB's could potentially be weak too if either your starters go down. 

hope this was a 14 team league

Who'd you get at QB?
Basically, all my teams are stacked at WR, and Pass catching RBs.

I got Nick Foles twice, Russell Wilson Once, and Carson Palmer once. Palmers the only iffy one in my opinion but that was in a 20 team league. Even with that I refused to jump the gun on a QB it just was not high on my list of priorities this year. 

Nick Foles is going to do NUMBERS, and Wilson will be good enough to win me games.
 
anybody know how to delete a team from a league.. I accidentally signed up to a NFL.com league.. they auto drafted for me and I want nothing to do with this.
 
Should I use Ram's or Lion's defense for week 1?

Lions all day

Romo or Cutler for week 1?

Gimme Romo. Think that game is gonna be a shoot out

Here's my team for my main league:

QB - Cam Newton
RB - LeSean McCoy, Zac Stacy
WR - Percy Harvin, Emmanuel Sanders
TE - Greg Olsen
K - Robbie Gould
DEF - Denver
Flex - Hakeem Nicks
BN - Darren Sproles, Jonathan Grimes, Danny Amendola, Cecil Shorts, Derek Carr (last pick)

Ugh. Drop Carr and grab Jordan Mathews or another upside WR
 
I see lots of people are high on the Jets D and they are available in my league

Should I switch them out for The Bears vs Buffalo?
 
Should I use Ram's or Lion's defense for week 1?
STL is a top-5 D against Minny with unproven QB play. They should be able to limit and contain AP's effectiveness.

Eli has the weapons to potentially carve up Detroit's secondary. Cruz, Randle, Jernigan, OBJ.

Romo or Cutler for week 1?
Most people don't know or realize Buffalo was 4th best in passing YPG allowed last season. That being said, they are missing Alonso, their anchor. And Trestman is a good offensive mind. San Francisco was 7th in comparison, but they did add Ward, Bethea, and Dontae Johnson to the secondary.

I'd say because San Francisco's defense is handicapped by injuries and suspensions in the front seven, Romo is the play in a potential shootout with Dallas' weak defense.

Matt Stafford was going so early in every league I drafted him. I wanted him bad but I wasnt going to reach under any circumstances. Didnt draft a QB until round 7 in any league.
Got caught going too late on QB myself. One league secured Rivers, Tanny in the other.

Here's my team for my main league:

QB - Cam Newton
RB - LeSean McCoy, Zac Stacy
WR - Percy Harvin, Emmanuel Sanders
TE - Greg Olsen
K - Robbie Gould
DEF - Denver
Flex - Hakeem Nicks
BN - Darren Sproles, Jonathan Grimes, Danny Amendola, Cecil Shorts, Derek Carr (last pick)

I know my WR is pretty weak, any advice?
I'd package Sproles with Percy or Sanders to upgrade your WR1. Would have went more upside than Nicks, say Wheaton or Hunter.

I went Eddie Lacy, D. Thomas, Julio Jones, Vincent Jackson and Vereen when I could have went Lacy, Ball/Gio, J. Jones, V. Jackson and Garcon

Now I'm offering Thomas and Vereen for Ball and Boldin, ya or nay?
VVH, you're my dude. Absolutely not. Ball hasn't proven enough as a RB1 to cut ties with DT.

12 team league, standard. 2nd pick. Snake draft. I went all upside but I think it will pay off.

10 team league, standard. 7th pick. Snake draft. This was a little tougher, first 10 team league for me. I'm happy though.

First team: Use your plethora of WR's to upgrade the RB position. Hyde could Flex if Gore falters. But Gore is purely a RB2 on his last legs and Sproles is more of a PPR Flex play.

Second team: Much more balanced. Stronger at the RB position. Boykin and Devonta could be huge off your bench. Especially if Freeman becomes the ATL RB starter, like I expect.

I have 2 drafts tonight both at the same damn time :smh:  
Mobile app will come in handy. Make sure you have substantial battery life.
 
I see lots of people are high on the Jets D and they are available in my league

Should I switch them out for The Bears vs Buffalo?
Yes, Rex Ryan is a defensive mind. Jets were 11th in total YPG allowed on D last year. Despite a shoddy secondary, who on Oakland is going to exploit their corners? Maybe Streater.

Bears were 30th in defensive YPG allowed and PPG allowed last season. Their secondary has question marks, and Trestman is offensive-minded. Something the Bears miss about Lovie.

12 team league, standard scoring.

Are you in the TAN league? 20 teams was straight mayhem yesterday.

 Waited as well, && got Romo out of the deal tho, so I was relieved.

Yea, Foles is gonna light it up again this year. I wish Seattle let Russell loose like how they did in the preseason with regularity, that would be bananas. Def. won't let you down either way tho.

The commissioner is most likely in charge of removing a team from the league. Hit him up if you can.

Godspeed, my guy. Had 3 going on at the same time last night & it was hell tryna keep up. Was using my phone, iPad, && desktop.

Champ, would you say I should part with either D. Thomas or J. Jones and Vereen for Gio/Filler WR? I have Lacy and V. Jackson already on the roster

I just don't trust Vereen as my RB2 anymore and I think I have solid WR's in D. Thomas, J. Jones, V. Jackson, Golden Tate and Kendall Wright
 
 
Standard ESPN 12 team, Should i start Victor Cruz at the flex? Also thinking about trading for a QB
Pause for a moment and ask yourself, who else would start at your flex?

An unproven Sankey who did absolutely nothing to push Shonn Greene for the starting job?

The WR2 for the Lions?

A guy who has had an entire offseason to cement himself as the Dolphins' starting RB only to lose much of that foothold to a player coming off a knee scope?

A rookie WR?

etc, etc

Going into week 1 Cruz is a must start player.

Lets not over think things here.

Thanks bros lol yeah I did the same thing last year with both these leagues. Ended up going to the finals for both (winning one) so it could be good luck

Thanks for the feedback, I was thinking I might have to sacrifice a loss week 1 to see how my WRs fare before offering any trades. In any trade, not even sure who to target the way that RBs have been so hit or miss for the past few seasons.

I would first try to get Gio and WR Filler for V-Jax and Vereen. Tate can easily replace V-Jax, and you would have a sick RB2 in Bernard behind Lacy.

Part with DT last. Julio is the next to package if your initial offer is rebuffed.
 
How do you guys feel Kenny Stills will do this year? Thinking about picking him up off the waiver wire and dropping Jordan Matthews.

Keeping my eyes on Derek Carr as well. Got Cutler and Palmer for QB and I'm not a fan of Palmer at all

Did I mess up drafting Olsen over Cameron?
Cameron is preferred. But it's close because of Cam's reliance on the TE. Cameron started to get blanketed after his hot start, and there's no receiver to take away attention. Also the question of Hoyer and Manziel's effectiveness to get Cameron the football consistently.

who would you all go with for a bench rb : james starks or khiry robinson
Robinson based on ADP. Sproles is gone. Thomas is average. Robinson or Cadet will prosper.

Fleener then Eifert. By miles.
