BeastMode54 Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 I have to say you could have done better with the running backs Quote
Hazed and Amuzed Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Had our live draft last night- 8 man league, let know what you guys think: QB Tom Brady Philp Rivers RB Willie Parker Edgerrin James Chestor Taylor Rashard Mendenhall WR Reggie Wayne Lee Evans Calvin Johnson Dwayne Bowe Santana Moss James Hardy TE Kellen Winslow Todd Heap DEF Jax K Rian Lindel That's a pretty good squad there. I like the Mendenhall pickup. Having him and Parker will be a nice tandem when Pitt plays weaker D's. Quote
The Big Cat Posted August 23, 2008 Author Posted August 23, 2008 I have to say you could have done better with the running backs Yes. I could have. Willie Parker = a yard machine doesn't score a lot of TD's. Word on the street is that PITT will have to win in shootouts, so that was my logic. Also, Chester Taylor WILL start at least 3 games this year. In an 8-man league, every team is godlike and Yes. Quote
Welcome To Pegulavilla Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Had our live draft last night- 8 man league, let know what you guys think: QB Tom Brady Philp Rivers RB Willie Parker Edgerrin James Chestor Taylor Rashard Mendenhall WR Reggie Wayne Lee Evans Calvin Johnson Dwayne Bowe Santana Moss James Hardy TE Kellen Winslow Todd Heap DEF Jax K Rian Lindel You have a big problem at RB even though you covered yourself by getting both PIT RB's. Edge is old and is not even a low end #2 RB and you can't start Taylor unless Peterson gets injured. What i would've done was keep Wayne, Johnson, Evans, and Hardy and not select Bowe (im guessing you took Bowe somewhere in the 6th or 7th Rd) and could've gotten a #2 RB there instead, and another RB instead of the Moss pick. You should have ended up with 6 backs because that was the weakest position on your team, plus you already had three really good WR's you can start each and every week so you didn't need to have a 5th and 6th WR on your team, other than that you did great with your other picks. If i were you i would trade Bowe and Moss. Quote
BuffOrange Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 jeez! did anyone else bother picking? nice team... In an 8-man league, every team is godlike I definitely think this is a below-average 8teamer. Those leagues are about accumulating studs, and Brady & Wayne are the only two you got. Where are the 3rd/4th round picks? I don't see them. I had an 8team draft the other night where I got Romo/Palmer, Sjax/LJ/Turner, Andre/Calvin Johnson/Holmes, Clark/Cooley - and I don't think I have the best team. Quote
KD in CA Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Your RBs are really below par for an 8 team league. Everywhere else is stellar, so if you can swing a trade with a team that has a lot of RBs (package a WR and TE), you'll be good. Quote
