What is the scoring system? A "D" at number 8 seems kind of high depending on the scoring.

Bradshaw is a good late steal.

Mendanhall was picked way too early, especially with AP you could have fetched a top tier QB at this spot instead of being stucked with 3 second tier one to start in a commitee depending on match ups.

Felix Jones will hurt you as well. In a 10 teams league, guys like Kevin Smith or handcuffs on good starters are still available.

You will live an breath through AP, which is scary in a way if he gets hurt.

But otherwise good middle of the pack team. A trade or two away from contention (get rid of either Mendanhall or Jones and try to get value, maybe a trade up for a strong QB or lure someone with Reggie Wayne in a package to grap Rodgers, Romo or Brees)

We get 10 points for shutouts 7 points for 3-6 points allowed 4 points for 7-13 allowed 2 points for 14-17 allowed and 1 point for 18 -21 allowed. More points allowed than 21 will give you negative points. 1 point for each sack 2 points for every tournover and 6 points for any kind of td scored also 6 points for punt and kickoff return tds. Def started going fast that round and I really like desean jacksons ability on punt and kickoff returns

Yeah I was torn between Mendenhall and shonne Green. Brees and Rodgers went in rd 1 and Romo in rd 2 only qb I could have taken was Rivers but I decided to pass and took Mendenhall. I know that Pitts will run this yr and Mendenhall doesnt split carries like other backs

I also think that PIT will try to run but someone will steal carry from Mendenhall and the Steel city guys will trail a lot this season with their sub average O-Line, so they will have to throw.

When Big Ben Comes back, the ball will go up in the air and RM will see is carry drop in the 20's, which is bad Fantasy Wise.

Play him through week 1, build his value and trade ASAP.

In the long run, this will pay off, trust me.

Thats really not a bad idea at all! I really felt good about getting Bradshaw so late because I really think he is a better fit in the Giants off then Jacobs so I might be able to use him. I would love to package 2 of my qbs and maybe mendenhall for a top flight qb and middle of the road rb

Not a bad draft at all with the exception of a defense in round 8.

Crabtree, Welker, Bradshaw, and Jennings were nice value picks. I wonder what QB's were available when you took Felix Jones though. If there was a choice between Mendenhall and Rivers, you certainly made the right call.

Mikegno5 · 08-24-2010, 08:52 AM

Yeah I do believe I reached for a def in round 8 but it seemed like every one was getting one so I kind of panicked and said I better get a decent def or it may hurt me. As for which qbs were left when I took Felix? Mcnabb, Palmer, Henne, Cutler, Stafford, Garrard, Hasselbeck, Orton, Leinart, Cassel, Sanchez, and the 3 that I drafted in the later rounds Flacco, Ryan, and Kolb. The only real chance I had at getting a qb was my 2nd pick and I wasnt taking a qb over Peterson and in the 3rd round when I took Mendenhall over Rivers. I just felt like passing over a solid Rb would come back to haunt me so I have to take my chances with Flacco Kolb and Ryan. I think Flacco could have a big year though.
