He's denied it. But ESPN is saying this:Quote:

Surely Brady should have just said, "No, I didn't see him taking anything," saying, "no comment" just arouses more suspicions IMHO.
Impressive, less than 10 seconds a pick. I presume people had spent a lot of time preparing their draft orders before hand so that they were ready with their picks? I know I certainly couldn't make a pick in less than 10 seconds.Quote:

The ESPN draft center is pretty cool. You can see who has gone, you can look at other rosters, you can filter available players, you can trash talk, etc. Some people may have their own cheat sheets but I think most people use the lists provided by ESPN. You can also drag players you want to an area of the screen and make your picks quicker when it's your turn, assuming the players are still available. Overall a good experience.Quote:

I think Beast Mode will get the same number of carries as normal this season. I picked up Turbo and Christine Michael because of all the talk about a committee backfield but I think it's probably all been smoke and mirrors. Marshawn is the main man.Quote:

and so it begins, confused who to start between 3 players for 1 position!
Good luck everyone :thumbsup:
Hurns scored 22 points already and hes on Finsagogo bench. More than my whole team combined.
so my bench has scored double the points my starters have:rolleyes:
Can the fantasy games stop now please? I am winning for a change! :greengrin
AJ Green just helped me out with that TD reception! Huge!Quote:

Going to be a tight finish between me and Hi8sry...I was leading comfortably but I now trail as Dez Bryant and the 49ers are racking up some late points.
Still have Megatron, Jennings (Giants) and Broncos to go.
The Cowboys are so terrible at defense that Tony Romo is going to rack up points due the sheer amount of time he's on the field.
Or that's what I'm hoping happens :pray:
Thats my hope with their kicker, Field goals galore please.Quote:

I think you will be ok my RB's have let me down this week.Quote:

Yep and another INT!Quote:

Looks like I've been absolutely ruined week 1
I trail by 2 points with Rashad Jennings and Megatron still to play - think I might have a shot at a win in week 1 (before I go on to lose all the rest! :greengrin)
Still in with a slim chance of a win, valuable lessons learned!
My fantasy team is absolutely hopeless. needs alot of work!
Im ahead in my other league but thats most down to J Thomas.
The two sack fumbles killed me! :boo hoo:
I'm still trying to figure out if I had bad match ups or my team sucks :greengrin
Rodgers V Seattle
Doug Martin V Carolina
both let me down big time
Need 9 points between Woodhead and Fitzgerald tonight. And hope the Edinburgh Giants don't score anymore!
Will be very close, I've got Randle and Cards D/ST to go tonightQuote:

i wouldnt say that, andrew luck has brought you right back in it :agree: onto tonight games to determine the winnerQuote:

What a lovely guy, eh? :rolleyes:
ok so I've no got a clue when it comes to waivers?? ive submitted 2 but don't know what happens next?
Inthink you fund out on wednesdays if you get your guys or not.Quote:

This was a funny week. In general I am happy with the players that I drafted, or were drafted for me, but there were a few pokes in the eye - especially Jamaal Charles.
You wait. You will most likely only get one of the guys because once you make one waiver wire pickup, you go to the end of the list. If nobody else wants your second pick then he's yours.Quote:

Can someone elucidate how the draft waiver order works?! I was 16th so my effort to pick up Justin Forsett was unsurprisingly unsuccessful.
I hadn't placed any claims prior to this, so I'm curious as to why I started at the bottom?
You are top of the league aren't you?Quote:

That was what I had wondered too but surely the waver order was determined before the outcome of week 1's games, as we could submit requests prior to the games being played this weekend?Quote:

I think Ayrshire is above me because of the point differential of scored vs conceded.
There were no waivers before the games started last week as free agency was still open, once the games start (Thursday night) you can't change your roster till the waivers are processed on the next Wednesday, once the waiver order is sorted. So because you were top overall after the first games you were last in the waiver order.Quote:

The only thing I can think of is that wins over divisional rivals are worth more in the divisional standings tie-breakers than points differential (which is worth more in overall)? Ayrshire was the only one in the SOL division to beat a rival so he goes top?
That makes sense.Quote:

Managed to pick up Josh Gordon in a couple of the leagues I am in. Now just gotta pray for his suspension to be completely overturned.
Justin Forsett?? Lorenzo Taliaferro is the RB to own in Baltimore now :wink:
Quite chuffed to pick up James Starks from the Pack. My RBs are garbage this season:greengrin
I assume you'll be dropping Matt Forte for him then? :wink:Quote:

Remember and set your line ups, less than 3 hours till football :flag:
Go Pack!
Mon' the Jets (as it'll keep Rodgers off the field and prevent me taking a hiding this week)! :greengrin
:flag:
I need a Kenny Stills update!
Go Vikes and my new RB Asiata against the Patsies :agree:
Nah Rodgers will own it at Lambeau :agree:Quote:

No I'm afraid not. Only TDs that count for D are ones returned from interceptions.Quote:

oh and if anyone still thinks Steve Johnson was a good pick up im open to offers haha
Unless Darren Sproles goes mental tonight, I'm looking OK for a 2-0 start :agree:
Looking a bit dodgy for me. Went to bed expecting Forté to give me a commanding lead and he only scored 3 points. DH has Riley Cooper left and I'm 7 points ahead.Quote:

I may be the worst fantasy player ever. Gates on the bench as he was playing the Seahawks. De Sean Jackson injured.
In my other league my QB was RG3 and had Jamal Charles who both are injured.
Humped :aok:
0-2:rolleyes:
Knile Davis with 22 points on my bench :rolleyes:
Mark Ingram out for a month:grr:
This was a pish week for me. Jamaal Charles. Out. AJ Green. Out. Ryan Mathews. Out. Carson Palmer. Out (but just a backup anyway). I benched Stevan Ridley this week and he scored more than all my other RBs combined. Lot of stud players not delivering. Marques Coulston. 0 points. Still, at least I should be near the head of the waiver wire!
