Fantasy Football 2011: Jumping the Gun

[jimbo]

i think somebody has been listening to too much fantasy focus

and you cant really do that in a live draft, unless you make people type out names before their pick which wouldnt work well with yahoos stupid broken none scrolling draft chat thingie

[Tyche]

Can use magical commissioner powers during the draft.

Also, I read about it on another forum, but someone did point out an obvious flaw. The guys picking on the end can only get vetoed a maximum of once, whereas the guys in the middle can get hit twice.

[Headspace]

So let's say if I really wanted Stafford and I held off until the 8th round to get him, but the guy before me decided to draft him, I can veto, he has to pick someone else, and I can get him.

So jelly

Is Dexter McCluster worth a roster spot over Lance Moore? (WR/RB eligibility)

[kisada]

personally, i think so. there's a chance kc decides to lean more heavily on mccluster because he's really all they've got besides d-bo. in NO there's just too many weapons, so it'd take practically every single WR to drop like flies before moore's value takes a big jump. mccluster inherently has more upside.

Ryan Fitzpatrik v. the Eagles or Eli Manning v. the Seahawks?

[Akiyama]

oh god that's tricky. Eagles' secondary hasn't looked nearly as good as it was touted.. but the Seahawks are the Seahawks.. Eli looked good last week. Damn, that's a coin toss.

OK so Dexter Mccluster , Nate Burleson, James Starks, or Malcom Floyd for the Flex. Nate has the highest projection this week so i'm leaning towards him but i'm just not sure this will be his best game of the season like it says. I know Floyd is injured but no idea about Mccluster. Starks seems pretty solid if Nate doesn't get a touchdown catch.

[Tyche]

McCluster! I don't think he's scored less than 8 or 9 points since Charles went down and Thomas Jones sure as hell ain't getting it done.

Yeah... I was hoping for some last minute info or revelation from someone to help me decide. I'm going with Fitz, I think.

The Chiefs are starting to give Jackie Battle some carries now, so I think they intend to keep McCluster's carries limited. He does have a good match-up, however.

Burleson has 4 catches for 28 yards the past 2 weeks combined, as Titus Young is starting to overtake him. No thanks.

Grant is back but I still think Starks is the better runner. Still limited upside as they will probably split carries evenly.

Floyd is still banged up and hasn't done anything yet this season. I would keep him on the bench.

I would go with McCluster but wouldn't fault you if you went with Starks.

McCluster! I don't think he's scored less than 8 or 9 points since Charles went down and Thomas Jones sure as hell ain't getting it done.

McCluster has games of 4, 3, 5 and 3 points this season in standard leagues.

[Moss]

Eagles v. Bills could easily become a shootout. I trust Eli more but I think they will dominate the Seahawks and control the game. I would go with Fitz also.

[Valisk]

Kurp, I think you should bench Aaron Rodgers in BG Auction. He's coming down with a cold or something.

[Headspace]

Olsen or Chandler?

J-BRUCE

[Tyche]

Irrelevant.

[Moss]

Olsen or Chandler?

J-BRUCE

Olsen

[Headspace]

No u

J-BRUCE

[Moss]

You can't start me on your fantasy team, Headspace.

[Tyche]

It would be an improvement over his current RBs

[Moss]

Pick 2:

Lance Moore v. CAR, Titus Young v. CHI(MNF), Antonio Brown v. TEN
