Fantasy Football 2010: The leagues...Inquire inside for league openings

[Chun Liroy]

So you guys still never answered my question, do people just think Sproles is gonna get injured, or that he won't be so good this year, reduced load?

[Akiyama]

My RBs are eh, but if can get average consistency and they actually play as they should..that'd be nice.

Forsett finished hard last year and if the Hass can stay healthy (lol), they may be decent in that terrible division.

I think Sproles can be pretty good, depending on how he's used.

He isn't the starter. If he gets 10-15 touches a game he could put up numbers, but people in your league apparently don't think he will, and I don't either. I drafted Ahmad Bradshaw last year since he was in a similar situation, but he only had Brandon Jacobs in front of him, not a rookie in Ryan Mathews that looks like a pretty beastly feature back.

14-team standard money league with friends:

Spoiler: show

Looking back I don't really like my team. I have faith in CJ, Jennings, and Finley, the rest are wild cards.

Gadritan's 12 team standard league:

Spoiler: show

Love this team, high on everybody I drafted.

[Akiyama]

I think Ryan Matthews will be good, not great.

[Chun Liroy]

Oh,I wasn't sure of Charger's situation at RB, I haven't really payed attention to the preseason at all really... watched the first cowboys bengals game and that was it really. I thought sproles shared time with LT last year, or is Ryan Mathews expected to be the feature back now?

[Gadritan]

Aye. Plus Bradshaw was still in a committee style backfield, so you knew he'd get work. Mathews is replacing LT, who was a featured back. I caught a lot of flack in one league for taking Mathews in the second. Bitch better not prove me wrong.

Plus, when LT was out, Sproles didn't exactly awe SD. He's not a downhill runner, he's not overly elusive, he's got decent hands, but so does Mathews, etc.

Edit: Yeah, he should be a feature back. Remember that Vjax is gone too, so they'll be leaning on their rookie more. They gave up a good bit to trade up and get him. They've had plans for him for a while me thinks.

[Moss]

I think Ryan Matthews will be good, not great.

As a player he seems very solid, not amazingly fast or quick but he doesn't seem to leave many yards on the field. The reason he is going so high is that word out of the organization is they plan to give him a lot of carries and involve him in the passing game. In my mind he is high upside with little downside. Who else do the Chargers have? Jacob Hester? Sproles is not a full time back.

[Plow]

Twas a good draft. The panic mode on TEs and DEF was pretty awesome, lol. Had them going off the board in what, 4th and 5th round or some shit? I'll put it this way, people already had TEs and DEF when I got LT...

I picked 2 TE relatively early, I have both projected to outperform any WR that were on the board so they were the best picks for my flex spot anyway.

If it wasn't ppr it would be a different story, but the high catch TE's are really nice in bg leagues.

Anyway, yeah, I subbed in like 4 guys over my early picks due to week 1 matchups... not sure if that's a good or bad sign lol.

[Byrd]

Haven't heard from Tyr since he set the league up. He definitely needs to move the draft from Labor Day weekend, I'll be in ATL watching UNC beat up on LSU.

He also needs to add 6 more members.

I'm giving up on trying to get these in before I leave on vacation. If the leagues happen at all, which has to be questionable at this point, put me in for an absentee draft for both of them.

[Plow]

So, if nobody else joins by this time tomorrow, I'll be inviting my dad, and "20 man" will be 16 people.

Bleh... I guess it's a good thing we went with a more standard scoring system, though. That td heavy with only 16 would be kinda lame.


I am considering adding a roster slot or 2 to make it at least more "like" a 20 man, what you guys think? Maybe 2 flex spots, a wr/rb and a wr/te?

[Gadritan]

I wouldn't mind keeping it as is with 16. Nice and even 4 divisions with 4 teams. Late rounds in the draft would still get pretty interesting. People would still have to pick their poison as far as where they want their team to be weak.

My 10 team league.

[Gadritan]

So, am I just a total Boys hater, or is it retarded to take MAustin in the second round? Seems absolutely insane to me. In this league, he was taken before BMarsh, Fitz (kinda' understandable with their QB situatioin), Reggie Wayne, Randy Moss, Megatron, Roddy White, and Djax.

[Chun Liroy]

Well I mean I was the one to take him.

[Gadritan]

Nah, not that league. Different cash league. Moss, Wayne, AJ etc, most of them were off the board when you got him.

[Chun Liroy]

Well I got him hoping that him and Romo would share some stats so double the stats D: or something.

[Tymon]

I think we should keep the 20man roster the same.

I won't say I hate depth, but having to pick the 3rd receiver from the Lions is stretching it

That's what makes it fun imo.

[BarthelloSylph]

I'm voting Tyche as new head of BGP. Anyone else concur?

[Moss]

It will be pretty deep with 16, if anything you could make it two RB/WR/TE flex spots.
