Last year's #1 offense with a crazy new defense. Mackless Raiders. Yeah, that line does look nice. Are Raiders all of a sudden hype, since they traded and released a significant portion of their other talent in the offseason? I could see riots after some 70-0 route. It's gonna be bad. Gruden? Are people betting on him? This is gonna make me laugh. Edited September 6, 2018 by Paulus

Jauronimo Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 Anyone else here because they thought Doc was starting a band?

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 I took detroit. it's as much of a gimme as you can imagine. Rookie QB on a bad team on the road in primetime. Don't know why anyone is taking the saints this week.

Doc Posted September 6, 2018 Author Posted September 6, 2018 Anyone think the Browns are worth taking? Like with the Lions, it would probably be only time I would take them during the year.
TigerJ Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 I've joined a few. Among my survivors, I have the Rams.

The Ravens are not a good pick in week one. Unless they have some sort of Lamar Jackson big play gimmick stuff, they'll be flat on offense as usual.

Big C Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 10 hours ago, Happy Gilmore said: Saints. Seems like the safest pick in week 1 where you don't really know the teams yet. This is why I went Saints. Gotta take the safe pick to start. 4 hours ago, joesixpack said: I took detroit. it's as much of a gimme as you can imagine.

If Ravens win, theres slightly less of a sting to the loss because at least you move on in the pool and still have some strong choices left. Ou are going to be mad the Bill's lost anyway, at least this could help make things slightly better. Bill's win and getting knocked out of the pool has less of a sting cause you are excited the Bills pulled off an upset win to start the season.

If you want to free up the rest of the season from having to figure out who you are going to pick the next 16 weeks, sure, the Browns are worth taking....... I wouldn't touch them until a few weeks into the season and you see if they are the usual Browns again.
Just Jack Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 I just go with my gut feeling and try not to overthink it. I remember one year in the TBD pool, most people picked "the sure thing" the first week. Well, they lost and half the field was done.
