VC "Greater Than Collective" Fantasy Football Thread

I don't feel bad about Gronk at all cus somehow I got Rudolph to hold me over. And he should be good trade bait once I'm done with him. After the Maclin injury, Jackson is a fucking steal. Same with Boldin after the Crabtree injury. I think Carolina is going to try and make Cam a little less mobile this year cus they can't afford for him to get hurt. And Stewart is hurt right now so DeAngelo it is (for the time being). Honestly I'm probably gonna go WR in flex most weeks and choose based on matchup.

Like I said in the NFL thread, I like to go (in general) with players who are the solidified #1 at their position on their team.

I don't see D. Jackson having that great of a year. Not horrible, but nothing to write home about. I agree that Vick I a great choice, but who knows if he'll be around week 9. I also think that Woodhead could do some damage this year.

 

vick loves jackson and with maclin out, he's going to be looking for him more.  i also feel like jackson knows he has to step up and i'm thinking he matured enough to take that on.

i'm envious of your gronk pick up. rudolph is solid and to have gronk for the 2nd half and then playoffs could be a deciding factor for a league championship.

 

tolbert is such a thief though!

i have vernon davis in both leagues now. i hope this doesn't kill me.

 

i like vd, but i put no stock in any of the 2 top TEs, after that i just think their is just such a huge drop off.

 

i feel like i got a steal with finley in the 12th and sudfeld in the 13th to wait and see what happens with him.

The Gatos - Nice WR depth, but I don't feel it's worth it when the sacrifice is how thin the RB's are. Murray is a borderline rb2 and if he goes down it's big trouble. And Flacco. Ugh. Just say no.

Fear Boners - Very good, very balanced. I think Desean Jackson is pretty overrated based on his explosiveness, but there are plenty of equal receivers you could have gotten way later. Though, who knows what The Eagles will show with the new system. I usually don't think Gronk is worth the risk based on ADP, but backing him with Rudolph was really solid.

I almost panicked during my draft because I realized I had zero RB then realized that there were a few backup/sleepers I could pick up late.  we'll see how this goes :)

 

ben tate could be great for you if arian fails.  there are a few RBs that needed to be handcuffed this year and whoever didn't handcuff him is going to be kicking themselves.

 

i think there were 4 MUST handcuffs in this draft

 

cj spiller/fred jackson

mccoy/bryce brown

foster/tate

forte/bush

lunchas - sweet team,  i really like it. very similar to my strategies

 

hernandez - 3 qbs? all which could be starters, going to be stressful figuring who to start and you wasted picks there that could be wideouts

 

whale vagina - scary that if morris goes down your only other starting qb is ryan matthews

 

shithawks - looks good, little weak at rb

 

proakis - taking a risk on vick, but it can pay off so good and you are solid at rb

 

sudik - pretty solid. 

 

rg3peat - early fav

 

lebowski - another early fav

 

grimsby - bell should be no ones third back even worse, flex player

 

taco - mcfadden as a starter? green-ellis as a starter? hmmm

 

greendale - another early fav

 

tuel - doesn't look bad, not bad at all. curious to see what den does at rb
