Title: Who has been following the NFL mess?
Post by: Pete on July 10, 2011, 09:43:23 AM
I have fantasy draft coming up that I haven't prepared for.  Should I bother?

Holy crap that is an early draft. Yes, you should bother. Jamaal Charles should be your first pick.  :moreira:

Dont participate in a league that drafts in July.  It is full of losers with no life who obviously live for it.  Are they sending invites for their Superbowl party yet?

Whoa, miss-communication...it's coming up, but not for another month or so.  Just wondering when I should start bothering, if ever.

I would start bothering about a day or two before the draft. It's pretty much a crapshoot after the first round, anyway.

I would start bothering the first day of free agency. It will be important to know where guys like Kolb, DeAngelo Williams and Ahmad Bradshaw, among others, end up..

Mark Ingram(notes) – At first glance, New Orleans appears to be an enriching place for RBs – superb passing offense, stout offensive line. But Sean Payton is shady. His rotating RB strategy says exercise caution. Ingram is unquestionably talented, but there are no guarantees he will be the guy in critical situations (e.g. at the goal line). Daniel Thomas(notes) is this year’s fantasy ROY.


Quote
Matt Schaub(notes) – He’s an above-average quarterback with arguably the deadliest wideout in the league, but as long as Arian Foster(notes) runs wild, his QB1 status will be kept under wraps. Recall last year that Schaub was the 13th-best signal caller in fantasy. The eighth passer off the board in average drafts, his production will likely mirror ’10. Matt Ryan(notes), Josh Freeman(notes), Eli Manning(notes), Sam Bradford(notes) or Kevin Kolb(notes), going some one to five rounds later than Schaub, are more attractive.

I tried drafting Joe Hall only to find out he's not even in the league.  I'm guessing injury or something but hadn't heard.  I didn't have room for both sproles and daniel thomas at RB so I drafted Sproles as a WR to combo with Jordy on the other side who obviously went #1.
