This seems broken. Haymaker has 5 picks. Some people only have 3 or 4. I'm guessing some rascal added Tebow on his behalf. ;)

I reckon he'll have a good year and was hoping others might not have noticed him lurking down there. There are only a few other semi-decent RBs left so careful selection required now!

Good pick SS.

Doubt I'll even pick a QB then. Guy I want should still be available in a few rounds as most folk already have their QB. If not, I have a back up plan :wink: ( bit of a gamble but could pay off big style IMO)

...I'd also be happy with Matt Ryan or Matthew Stafford as my starter. There's about 15 QBs who have a realistic shot at the being the leagues best passer IMO. You can't say that about running backs or receivers where you really have to draft one of the big names.

Exactly. Throw in Stafford, Ryan and even Romo and there's plenty left to go around as only two other teams don't have a QB. And that's not even including my back up plans. In a twelve team league it's just crazy picking QB's early doors.

I'm suspecting Alex Smith might be your untested gamble - either him or Carson Palmer.

I obviously don't expect confirmation/denial but they're 2 undiscussed QBs who could potentially have excellent years in their new institutions.

You could have at least picked a decent QB then if that was your tactic :greengrin

I've no doubt he's a quality QB but I do feel he's being overhyped because of the run to the Superbowl IMO.

I read this earlier and thought of you:

These new-wave quarterbacks are exciting, but they lack the elite supporting casts and have to make plays with their legs because the plays aren't there down the field. And of course, that style of play tends to increase a quarterback's injury risk. Of all the read-option passers, Kaepernick scares me the most. He's coming off a Super Bowl run, leading to huge hype and expectations. That means that as good as he is, he'll likely be overvalued in drafts. Plus, Kaepernick lost his leading receiver, Michael Crabtree, to a serious Achilles injury. Kaepernick has great potential, but he's a relatively inexperienced quarterback on a run-first team. Don't reach.

Slight concern that Colston is on the PUP list but according to Payton it's nothing serious and he just needs rest. Surprised he fell to the 5th round in all honesty!

Delighted to have landed Ryan as my QB - the Falcons are (IMO) a team capable of getting to the Big Dance this year and with the receiving corps of Gonzalez, White and Jones, I'm happy to have him on board :thumbsup:

He's got Anquan Boldin now from the Ravens. I think he'll have another big year. (Although you have to figure at least one of last seasons rookie class of Wilson Kaepernick Luck and Griffin will have a sophomore dip. Happens a lot with QBs).

No, he updated the pick to Tony Gonzalez instead. Vernon Davis was the only name on his list that was somehow not crossed off. Obviously he missed that pick but it is up to date now (59 names scratched off).

I feel more nervous about this year's draft than last year's. I didn't know what I was doing last year so picking high ranked players just made sense. That still holds true but I now know that high ranked players can tank and low ranked players can be stand outs. So even though I am using cheat sheets it's not clear that I am making the right choices. Who knows? It's a crap shoot for the most part.

Aye, keep dreaming mate. Your only chance is if I forget to pick a QB.

You need at least 3 RBs in this game. You have none, I'm just curious who'll you end up with. Big gamble and could cost you big style. i.e. NO WINS.

I feel more nervous about this year's draft than last year's. I didn't know what I was doing last year so picking high ranked players just made sense. That still holds true but I now know that high ranked players can tank and low ranked players can be stand outs. So even though I am using cheat sheets it's not clear that I am making the right choices. Who knows? It's a crap shoot for the most part.

It'll just be a website's rankings - nfl.com, espn (Matthew Berry's are always worth a look), CBS etc all have their own fantasy experts who rank players. It's handy enough for judging what round a player should be drafted, however they'll never be 100 percent accurate. E.g My best player last year was Doug Martin who I picked up in Round 8, whilst Stafford and MJD who I drafted in rounds 2 and 3 were disappointing relative to the round I picked them up in.

BleacherReport are usually quite on the money with their estimates :aok:

Does anyone have the website from last year which you put your lineup into and it was assessed in terms of it's strength?
