$10 money league auction draft. 16 teams. I left after I got my core. Ended up terrible...

QB-Peyton Manning
RB-CJ Spiller
RB-Frank Gore
WR-Johnny Knox
WR-Donald Driver
TE-Zach Miller
Q/R/W/T-Alex Smith
BN-Kenny Britt
BN-Correll Buckhalter
BN-Devin Hester
BN-Marshawn Lynch

K-Mason Crosby

DEF-Jets

Possibly the worst bench I've ever seen.



This is why you draft the whole way through.

Hopefully my Orton Now Rape Later strategy at QB pays dividends. Big Ben better come out firing.

I'm banking on this too but mine is Eli Now Rape Later. I have Eli for weeks 1-5, because that's when he's money. Hopefully around the time the weather gets cold and he starts to shit the bed Big Ben will be ready to rap- I mean, take over...

If you've ever done an auction draft, you'd know that it starts to suck after a while. My team is the reason you don't do auction drafts lol. There was a fuck up in the draft and the commish restarted cuz someone bought fake Adrian Peterson for $52. He should have made him keep fake AP and fuck his team over but no. I had Maurice Jones-Drew and Frank Gore first time around. My team was going to go according to my strategy. Second time around, the guy who fucked the draft drove up the price of MoJo thus fucking my team. His starting QB is Tim Tebow . I'm gonna work the waiver wire hard to fix my bench.

Only thing I hate about this strategy is that I get nervous and end up reaching on Ben and taking him a little early...cause if someone wants to snag him as their backup QB my whole team is fucked.

My roster: (12 team league)

QB: Orton/Big Ben
HB: Ray Rice/Jamaal Charles/Ronnie Brown/Chester Taylor/Larry Johnson
WR: Roddy White/Robert Meachem/Percy Harvin/Aromashodu/Jacoby Jones
TE: Gates
K: Mason Crosby
D: Cincy

my WRs gonna give me a headache.

When did you get him in your 12 team? I reached hard on him in my 12 team draft since it wasn't a paid league. Got him in round 6 or 7. I have a 10-team pay league draft coming up on Wednesday and I'm tempted to give the Rape Later another go, but this league is full of unpredictable drafters.

QB - Drew Brees
RB - Jamaal Charles

My leagues rules:

 

Trades : NO VETOS OR VOTES. No league owner override. A trade is a trade and is final!

Only 10 teams this year!

6 teams will make the playoffs. This will keep the league competitive for the whole year!

Rosters:

a flex player has been added to the starting lineup. You can choose between a wr or a rb for this position.

The offensive player now gets 6 points for kick and punt return tds. So if you got tedd ginn, might get some points.

FInally 0.5 points per reception. Regardless if it is a wr or rb or te

Essentially the Commish got tired of everyone in the league bitching about trade vetos and having too many ties which resulted in someone getting screwed out of the playoffs due to not have a hundredth of a percentage point during Week 2.

EDIT: Chester Taylor is looking to be the newest member of the Alligator Funkhouse locker room after waivers clear tomorrow; Sad Lance Moore is Sad.

PPR leagues are stupid to me. As are fractional points. Why can't you just make bench points the tie breaker?

Any league without fractional points is amateur IMO. You know how many points are being left out when you ignore the fractional points? That shit adds up significantly over a week and especially a season. Why the hell should someone with 51 rushing yards get the same points as someone with 59? Makes absolutely no sense.

Because you don't score fractional points in real football. Should a 1-yard touchdown count less than a 99-yard touchdown?

This isn't real football, it's fantasy. Our league has been using fractional points ever since one of our championship games ended in a 66-66 tie.

Lol.. this is fantasy sports bro. And what you're saying really doesnt make any sense anyways.. if someone rushes for 59 yards.. its 59 yards... and if someone rushes for 51 yards... its 51 yards... one man rushed for 8 more yards then the other man. They dont both count a 50 yards in the NFL, why should they in fantasy sports?
