A-Town Power Rankings Week 4

A-Town Power Rankings

Week 4

 

Believe it or not, with week 3 in the books that means about a quarter of our season is over.  At this point, teams should be getting a good read on what their strong points are and where they stand in the league.  I’m not saying it’s time to panic for our 4 teams that are 0-3, but it’s getting very close.  Along with the four 0-3 teams we have three 3-0 teams, five 2-1 teams and two 1-2 teams.  So needless to say, things are still tight and anyone can step up.  Along with my rankings this week, I added teams’ records so you can see where my personal opinion comes into play beyond just the stats.  Enjoy this week’s rankings and just a heads up next week I will be giving suggested trades to each team to try and heat things up a bit.

1. Pop (Last Week 1) 3-0

Pop’s stays at the top here as he escaped a valiant upset attempt by Anton.  Ray Rice is a fantasy stud as it seems he always runs for positive yardage and can turn a little dump pass into a 20 yard gain at any given time.  Eli Manning looks like a top 3 QB right now and if the rest of Pop’s team can pull their weight, he should sail into the playoffs.  A tough matchup against Logan next week should show us just how strong Pop’s team is.

2.  Zach (3) 3-0

As much as it pains me to do so, I moved Zach into the two spot this week.  Why does it bother me? Well first of all, I have never met the kid, second he won’t trade me RG3, and last, I just can’t trust a team with a starting WR core of Miles Austin, Malcolm Floyd and Nate Washington.  Despite all the hate, Zach has earned this ranking.  He has the top two QB’s in our league and a top flight RB core of McFadden and Sproles.  Zach takes on Mike’s struggling team this week and could even be my number one team next week!

3. Alex (4) 2-1

Well it’s official, Tony Gonzalez has clearly found the fountain of youth.  He looks as good as he ever has, catching ball after ball and racking up fantasy points.  If Alex can continue to get production from unexpected places, he is going to crush teams.  Putting up 150 points with only 6 coming from Romo is a very impressive feat.  If it wasn’t for a tough luck loss in week 1, Alex may be at the top of my rankings right now.

4. Joe (2) 2-1

After seeing Joe’s team fail to put up 100 points and taking a harder look at his roster, I think I have been over valuing the Baby Kangaroos.  Having Dexter McCluster as your flex option is never a good thing and I just don’t see the consistency from Lloyd and Jennings.  If the Patriots shy away from the run and Reggie Bush’s injury is serious, Joe could take a major tumble.  Remember where you heard it.

5. Garret (5) 0-3

I’m anticipating this will be my most controversial ranking of the week.  Hear me out before you all go crazy and blow up the comment section.  Garret has to be the best 0-3 in CBS sports leagues.  He has by far the most points against in our league and the 5^th most points scored.  That’s just bad luck right there.  Garret has a stacked roster that just struck gold in Mikel Leshore, who looked like a fantasy monster in his first ever NFL regular season game.  With Leshore in over Chris Johnson and a healthy Nicks, I would take Garret’s roster over any team right now.  I know it sounds like I have lost my mind, but just wait and see.  This is a playoff team that is going to turn some heads starting week 4!

6. Anton (6) 2-1

Anton had by far his best week of the 2012 season, thanks mostly to Larry Fitzgerald finally showing up, or should I say the AZ QB’s finally throwing their best player the ball.  Benson finally got into the end zone, but how long can Anton stay afloat without his first round pick Matt Forte?  When healthy, this is a team to mess with, but right now the injury bug is biting hard.

7. Logan (7) 2-1

Logan stays in the 7 slot despite winning because he came out flat against a much weaker opponent in Chris.  Right now Percy Harvin is the MVP of this team and everyone else is just a wild card.  Logan needs Vick to figure it out soon and get Murray back on track.  This team is capable of greatness, but I have a feeling Logan is going to be sweating it out each and every week.

8. Gill (10) 3-0

It took a lot for me to move myself out of the lucky 10 spot this week.  After the very controversial trade with Chris for Jimmy Graham, I think my team has earned a boost.  It’s hard to endorse a team without a stud QB, and that’s why it will be hard for my team to climb in the rankings.  After the trade, I left myself very thin on the bench and one injury could easily derail a solid start.

9. Dan (9) 0-3

Dan is still in the top 10 based on the fact that I still have a man crush on Aaron Rodgers.  He hasn’t done much yet, but he is still the best player in the NFL and will, without a doubt, produce video game numbers.  With the best receiving core in the league, Dan is bound to get in the win column sooner rather than later.  With Dan’s fantasy reputation I’m sure he’s keeping his cool, but a loss this week and we may see the league commish start squirming a bit.

10. Clay (10) 2-1

Out of love I have dropped Clay 2 spots to the lucky 10 slot!  I have no idea, as usual, of what to say about Clay’s team.  One week he plays average and gets a win, then plays great and goes 2-0.  Just when you think Clay finally has a good team, he throws up a 70 point week!  Yes that’s not a typo, a 70 point week, as in he almost was in the fricking 60’s.  If we had a standard league Clay would have put up 55 points! This kind of stuff only happens to Clay; I don’t know what else to say.  He will probably put up 180 next week; who knows anymore….

11. Jeff (12) 1-2

In case anyone missed Jeff’s message to the league, he is openly shopping his QB’s.  I honestly think Brady is up for grabs, so if you believe in him take a shot at him.  I will give Jeff credit for realizing his team is in trouble and trying to make a move.  What I don’t understand is that every week I find myself rooting against Jeff’s team.  Is that weird? Does anyone else root against Jeff?

12. Mike (13) 0-3

Positives for the Rochester Rawdogs: Their team owner made the club baseball team at UNC, has good grades, and is the CBA leader in stolen bases for the fall.  Negatives for the RR: First round pick Matt Stafford is hurt again, McGahee is hurt again, team is 0-3 and the girl in the team photo finally got cold and is putting on a sweatshirt next week!!

13. Kristen (11) 1-2

So I’m pretty positive Kristen doesn’t read this so I can say whatever I want about her team, and what I want to say is that they suck!  Besides me, everyone hates Cutler as a player and as a human being.  Steven Jackson looks like a Dinosaur and Jordy Nelson doesn’t have the talent to beat double coverage.  The lone bright spot on this team in C.J. Spiller got hurt last week and is expected to miss time.  Unless things turn around in record pace, not many teams are going to be saying “DidULose2aGirl.”

14. Chris (14) 0-3

Obviously I’m a fan of Chris this week as we agreed on a trade, which in this league seems very hard to do.  Ok, so obviously it looks like Chris got the short end of the stick here, especially with Wells going on IR, but Chris was backed up against the wall and threw a punch instead of just taking a beating.  If you can’t understand that, then you are obviously the best fantasy player ever and never have a bad team.  Although I have Chris ranked last, right now listen to this: Rivers, Brown (Giants), Mendenhall, Wallace, Bryant, Gates, Ogeltree/Cook and Prater.  I don’t know about you, but that doesn’t sound like a last place team to me.

 

*****Side note*****

As you all realized our league got a little crazy this year and choose 5 QB’s in the first round (I’m counting Clay’s pick of Newton a 1^st rounder), which is against the “old school” view of things.  Personally I’m very old school when it comes to fantasy football and completely disagree with choosing a QB in the 1^st round.  I just wanted to share with you all that the teams who picked a QB round 1 are a combined 5-10!  That stat can obviously change, but it’s interesting to think about.

 

A-Town Power Rankings Week 3

A-Town Power Rankings

Week 3

First of all I want to say thank you to my loyal readers; I didn’t know if you were actually out there.  A lot of things happened in week 2.  We started the week with our first trade of the year between Dan and Jeff.  At first I thought Dan took advantage of Jeff, but then I realized Jeff actually proposed the insane trade!  Dan’s team took a major step forward acquiring Julio Jones and Jeff took a plummet acquiring a bunch of second rate RB’s.  I do want to acknowledge the league for approving the trade. I’m a firm believer that if two teams agree on a trade we should always approve it.  Overall, week 2 was a low scoring week but we still had some good matchups.  Pop was this week’s big mover going all the way up to #1 and Anton dropped 6 spots.  We still have 5 undefeated teams, but at this point I’m not putting too much stake into record.  Without further ado, here is the A-Town Week 3 Power Rankings:

1. Pop (Last Week 4)

Pop’s had the high week and has scored the most points overall. What’s more impressive is he did it with a big fat goose egg from his flex spot.  Eli Manning isn’t going to throw for 500 yards every week, but he should flirt with 300 on a weekly basis.  Pop’s has a four headed monster in Manning, Rice, White and Johnson that is going to be tough to slay.  All I have to say is good luck to the rest of the league.

2. Joe (2)

Joe had a solid week and as a result stays put at #2.  It was encouraging to see what Reggie Bush produced; he doesn’t look very soft to me.  If the Saints continue to struggle it’s going to be great for Drew Brees’ fantasy value.  They have got it done early in both games by double digits and had to throw almost 50 times.  As long as the Patriots stay committed to Ridley and the running game, Joe should be slotted at the top of my rankings.

3. Zach (5)

Zach is making his presence felt as a new comer to A-Town. He put up another solid week and worked Chris over to go 2-0.   I don’t expect the Hernandez injury to slow this down as Bennett should fill in nicely.  The real question is who is Zach going to deal RG3 for?  It doesn’t make any sense to have a viable player on the bench when you can swap them for a solid RB2 or WR3.

4. Alex (6)

After a tough loss last week, Alex bounced back nicely and handed his rival Garret a loss.  MJD scored his first touchdown as did Lynch and Martin.  Having all your RB’s score a TD and all your receivers catch over 7 balls is a solid recipe for success.  Alex has built this team for the long haul and should matchup with anyone in the league.

5. Garret (3)

No matter what Garret may say, losing to Alex always stings.  They sat next to each other at the draft and had picks right next to one another.  Despite being 0-2, I still believe in this team.  Manning and Thomas seem to have chemistry and trust and I expect Thomas to have a monster year.  Once CJ and Charles get it going, this team is going to be a force to be reckoned with.

6. Anton (1)

Is everyone happy now? I finally moved Anton out of the 1 spot after his first loss in a while to Pop’s powerhouse of a team.  It’s going to be tough for Anton to avoid a big slide with Forte out for a few weeks and Larry Fitz not catching his stride so far this season. 

7. Logan (9)

Holy Danny Amendola!!! 15 catches is no fluke and I expect him to be the major focus point of the St. Louis passing attack.  Between Amendola and Harvin, Logan may have the top two guys in receptions at the end of the year.  In a ppr league that’s a very good thing.  As long as Vick can stay healthy, I see Logan being extremely competitive on a weekly basis and a team with maybe the most upside of any of the three teams ahead of him.

8. Clay (11)

Obviously Clay was going to have a huge week because I bad mouthed his team last week and gave them no respect.  Well touché Clay; Cam Newton and Richardson showed why they are fantasy studs and the Law Firm continues to produce for the Bengals.  If all things come together, Clay actually has a dangerous team on his hands.

9. Dan (7)

After the trade with Jeff, Dan officially has the best receiving core in the league.  Cruz, Green and Jones are top notch guys and pare them with Aaron Rodgers and that makes Dan very hard to beat.  However, the question remains, what is Dan going to do for running back production? He can’t continue to put up a combined 10 points from the RB spot or the advantage he has at WR will be negated.

10. Gill (10)

I’m again keeping myself in the ten spot.  It’s starting to feel like home.  Although I’m 2-0 I could easily be 0-2.  Dez Bryant is doing absolutely nothing and for some reason, despite his QBR being at its highest when he throws to Maclin, Vick refuses to do so on a regular basis.  Luckily, Arian Foster is a BA and gets it done week in and week out.

11. Kristen (8)

Kristen is having a rough time with the TE position.  If you have depth at the position, now would be a great time to make an offer to her.  On a positive note, C.J. Spiller has been the best player in the league the first 2 weeks and pared with McCoy still makes this a very dangerous team.

12. Jeff (12)

Jeff failed to reach 90 points as only two of his skill position players reached double digits.  It seems Jeff is about to enter desperation mode as he dealt away Jones last week and if my sources are correct, is actively perusing a Tom Brady trade.  I don’t know if that’s the answer, but what I do know is that Jeff needs to do something or his season will be over very soon.

13. Mike (13)

Positives: McGahee looked great on Monday night; Stafford has faced 2 very strong defenses and is due for a breakout game; and Jackson seems to be once again Vick’s favorite target.  Negatives: Michael Turner looks sluggish and may be on the backend of his career; Mike may have the thinnest bench of any team and Donald Brown is in fact a below average RB no matter who his QB is; and Olsen caught one lousy pass.  If you can’t tell, the negatives definitely outweigh the positives right now for this team and that’s bad news for Mike.

14. Chris (14)

With Gates hurt, Chris didn’t have much of a chance in week 2.  It’s going to take a lot from Chris to convince me to move him out of the cellar.  If it’s not time to blow up this experiment, it should be very soon.  Expect Chris to be very active on the trade front, maybe shipping Graham for a RB and a WR.

A-Town Power Rankings Week 2

A-Town Power Rankings

Week 2

 Well it’s official; week one is officially in the books.  We saw some wild action in both the NFL and our own league. We had four of our seven matchups determined by ten points or less highlighted by Jeff losing to Anton by .76! Jeff I hate to say it, but I think it’s karma for that text you sent me about last week’s rankings.  As to be expected, there was a lot of shifting in my rankings as I got to see how everyone’s team performed for the first time.  Only three teams stayed put and Kristen made the biggest jump moving five spots.  Clay, despite winning, and Jeff, due to his now thin backfield, both dropped three spots.  Make sure to get your waiver wire claims in by Wednesday night and remember there is a game every Thursday this year so set those lineups!

 

1. Anton (Last week 1)

I was surprised by all the criticism I got last week for putting Anton at number one.  I understand that his team is completely different from last year, but I still believe you’re the champ until someone knocks you off.  As of right now, Anton is still my number one team by .76ths of a point!  If Fitzpatrick and Benson stumble all year like they did in week one, Anton’s fantasy season may be over in week 13.  He’s going to have to make a trade for a QB. I’m no expert, but possibly shipping off Jonathan Stewart to Dan for Andrew Luck seems like a solid idea.

2. Joe (2)

Joe won in a shootout against a tough opponent in Garret last week.   I’m sure Joe had mixed emotions as he was at the Broncos game watching Garret’s players shred the Steelers D, but in the end he came out with the impressive victory.  Joe has a very well-rounded team that should be competitive every week and in fantasy football consistency is the name of the game.  I don’t see this team slowing down anytime soon.

3. Garret (2)

Garret had a good week, but as I mentioned, lost in a shootout to Joe.  He had to be encouraged by the play of Payton and Demaryius on Sunday night.  Honestly, this team had a bad week only scoring 3 offensive touchdowns and still put up 144 pts.  I expect some big performances out of this team and plan on seeing Garret’s name at the top of my rankings all year.

4. Pop (5)

I will be the first one to admit that I think Frank Gore is washed up and headed towards a down year, but man did he look impressive against the Packers in week 1.  If he continues to plays like that, Pop’s is going to have a very dynamic foursome in Rice, Gore, White and Johnson to put up huge numbers on a weekly basis.  When Eli Manning gets going, this is not a team I would want to run into.

5. Zach (7)

On paper Zach’s team looks like it should be at the top of my rankings.  He won the high week on his first week in a new league and had two incredible QB performances.  Don’t get me wrong; he definitely deserves credit, but I want to see it again before I give him the bump into my top 3.  I’m still not sold on Austin and Washington as your top two WR and Kevin Smith will get hurt at some point.

6. Alex (4)

For those of you who didn’t follow Alex and my matchup, Antonio Brown needed a mere 15 points to beat me on Sunday Night.  At halftime it looked to be all but over as he had 3 catches for 50 yards, but then Champ locked him down and he only had one catch the rest of the way and Alex loss in a bittersweet moment as his beloved Broncos won.  It was a tough pill to swallow for Alex, but his team is stacked and is definitely going to win their fare share of matchups this year.  Picking MJD in the third is looking like a steal right now.

7. Dan (6)

Oh Dan, you lucky man. We learned Sunday that Isaac Redman is not going to be the guy in Pitt which is awful news for Dan, but luckily Dan won the Washington Redskins RB sweepstakes earlier in the day with Alfred Morris.  Morris looked legit and if they keep winning, expect him to keep getting the carries over Hulu and Royster.  Dan lost because his WR’s all had sub-par performances, which I don’t expect to happen very often.  You get a free pass this week Dan, but I expect more from your boys next Sunday.

8. Kristen (13)

I hated Kristen’s team and now I love it. Crazy what one week can do in fantasy football.  With Jackson hurt in Buffalo we all got to see what Spiller can do and he didn’t disappoint.  Cutler looked great and Nelson and Decker showed they have big potential this year.  If Kristen can shore up the TE position, she could really move up the ranks fast.

9. Logan (11)

How Logan moved up two spots by losing and Clay moved down three by winning is for me to know and you to ponder.  What Lance Moore did in an eight minute span on Sunday was remarkable.  He went from zero receptions to 6 for 120 yards and a TD to end the game.  That’s absolutely incredible and I expect Brees to look for Moore’s way on a consistent basis next week.  Murray proved he is a first round RB and will get into the end zone a lot this year.

10. Gill (10)

My team actually had a great week and so did my bench.  I’m keeping myself in the ten spot based on my awful coaching decisions.  Sitting AP and Big Ben cost me 30 points and the high week.  I’m pretty disappointed because I don’t think I will have a week like that again where all my players seemed to be clicking.

11. Clay (8)

Clay, I’m sorry I dropped you three spots after beating Chris, but honestly your team looked rusty. Cam came out slow and I just don’t think Colston and Smith are going to cut it as 1&2 WR’s.   I could be wrong, but I feel like this team is full of mediocre players who have low ceilings.  Sorry Clay I still love you, just not your team.

12. Jeff (9)

I can’t imagine how Jeff felt Tuesday morning after losing that heartbreaker to Anton and finding out Fred Jackson is going to miss time.  We also found out Pyton Hillis might not be as big a part of the Chief’s offense as we were led to believe.  Jeff’s back is definitely up against the wall after week one, but luckily he’s hot Julio Jones (who looked like the 2^nd best WR in the game) throwing haymakers trying to keep him alive.

13. Mike (12)

Mike has a rough start to the season as Stafford was throwing the ball to anybody and everybody including the Rams and Welker caught a weak 3 passes.  Jennings going down is a big blow and Mike will have to turn to McGahee for production in the RB2 slot.  This team still has potential, but things could also get out of hand in a hurry.

14. Chris (14)

Well at least Chris was right about Jimmy Graham as he had 80 yards and a TD, but after that there isn’t much to say.  You’re not going to be very competitive with a combined 2.9 points from your running backs.  I hope things turn around for Chris, but right now I’m just not seeing it.

 

A-Town Power Rankings Week 1

A-Town Power Rankings

WEEK 1

 

I want to welcome everyone to another season of A-Town Fantasy football. The draft is over and the first game is actually 5 hrs away as I write this.  The draft went well, jokes were made, pizza was eaten, Logan was hung-over, so basically the usual.  So for those of you who are new to our league or have drank too much over the past year and forgot, I will be doing weekly power rankings for our league.  Although I don’t really know much, I will put a lot of research and thought into it.  As always I love feedback so please leave comments.  For my first rankings I grouped teams into 5 categories: great, good, average, below average and shit.  Without further ado here are the week 1 A-Town Power Rankings!

 

1. Anton

Although I don’t think Anton has the best team out of the gate this year, I’m going to give the Champ his due and keep him at the top until someone takes him down.  Anton is on a fantasy streak of late killing it in baseball as well and last year made me look like a fool with a preseason ranking of 10.  My favorite part of Anton’s team is his WR combination of Fitz, Steve Smith and Stevie Johnson. Getting Fitz in the second round of a 14 team PPR league is a steal and his numbers should be just fine with Skelton being named the starter in AZ. This biggest concern for this team, even though he refuses to admit it, is at QB with Ryan Fitzpatrick. Honestly he’s just not that good and Anton has no backup.

2. Garret

Well the one thing we know for sure is that Garret and the Broncos are both all in on Payton Manning. He has no backup and has Thomas as his number 2 WR.  Manning should be a serviceable fantasy QB, but don’t expect Manning of old to all of a sudden show up.  I love this team’s personnel at RB and WR and on top of that Garret has bench players with huge upside.  This team is built for the long haul to handle any kind of adversity so I expect Garret to be atop my ranking all year.

3. Joe

Joe reached early on Brees, but found good value later in the draft. I particularly like Brandon Lloyd and Reggie Bush.  I know they are both huge question marks to some people, but they are two very talented players who have proven they can get the job done.  Joe’s weak spot is definitely his bench where he has players with little upside.  A few big injuries could really derail this team’s hope for a successful season, but for now he sits in the top 3 of my rankings.

4.  Alex

I already know Alex is going to be upset with my ranking because he always feels he is the best and should be #1! Well Alex you get me in week 1 so that’s a great time to prove it! If all goes according to plan Alex does actually have a very strong team and so far it has with MJD ending his holdout.  Calvin is obviously the best WR in the game and Brown seemed to make huge strides last year and in the off season with Wallace holding out.  If Doug Martin plays like the reports are saying, he will be a huge asset and luxury to this team.

5. Pop

I paid very close attention to Pop’s team because he choose right in front of me and kept taking my players.  My favorite pick was Eli Manning.  His two best weapons went in the first 3 rounds, but he fell to the 4th round, tell me how that makes sense? White and Johnson give pop star power at WR and with Rice at RB Pop’s may have the most high profile names of any team.  The only question for this team is who is going to step up and fill the flex position.

6. Dan

Dan can’t fall lower than 6^th based on the fact that he has the best football player on the planet on his team in Aaron Rogers.  With his back to back picks in the 2^nd and 3^rd round, Dan went with a bold strategy and took two WR instead of a RB and it came back to haunt him.  Have Shone Green as your number 1 RB isn’t good in any league.  Dan isn’t strong at TE and has a very thin bench meaning his fate in fantasy this year will be decided on what crazy trade he will be able to pull off.

7. Zach

Zach’s team is probably better than 7^th, but he’s new to the league and wasn’t there on draft day so he is going to have to earn his spot.  The strength of this team is at RB. McFadden has the potential to be the best in the game and Sproles proved last year that he is a top notch PPR back.  Kevin Smith adds great depth and Zach made sure to get McFadden’s back up in Goodson.  However, Zach is going to struggle at WR.  He really needs Floyd to break out and do big things.  Call me crazy but I predict Hernandez will have just as good a year as Gronk.

8. Clay

First off it was very nice to see Clay at the draft considering he lives in another country and said he wouldn’t be playing this year.  I loved Clay’s first 4 picks, but then things got a little iffy for me.  He is going to be nervous all year about WR and Coloston is more of a #2 guy than someone you want as your top pass catcher.  Clay also lacks quality bench players. On a positive note, Clay was able to grab Crosby for like the 4^th year in a row and Cam Newton is one of my favorite players.

9.  Jeff

Things I like about Jeff’s team: Julio Jones, Tom Brady’s hair, his team name and Buffalo’s run game.  Things I dislike: 3 TE’s that all suck, 2 of 4 WR’s have never caught an NFL pass, 2 RB’s who will get a combined 15 carries a week, and F-ing Vincent Jackson!  I believe all this adds up to a 5-8 record and Jeff being pissed off.

 

10. Gill

I’m not sure what to think of my team so I ranked myself 10 for these reasons:  1) I hate odd numbers and 10 is a very solid even number; 2) I pre-ranked Anton 10 last year and he won it all; 3) Somehow none of my players have a bye in week 10; and 4) My starting TE Kyle Rudolph is going to get me exactly 10 points every week.  Basically what I’m saying is that my season is hindering on the play of Rapelisberger or a 3^rd round quarterback who has played in more professional baseball games than NFL games.

11. Logan

So when Logan picked Murray in the first round I thought it was a great pick.  Apparently Logan and I are the only ones who feel that way.  He went in at least the 2^nd round in every other draft I did and the general theme is that people are down on him this year (Woops).  I honestly like Logan’s team and want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but he has by far the most injury prone team and around week 5 may struggle to find 8 healthy players. Who knows, maybe Vick will play like he did 2 years ago and lead Logs to fantasy immortality.

12. Mike

So this ranking may be out of spite that in our fantasy baseball league I have the number 1 team by a landslide and am losing to Mike in the playoffs right now! I really like Stafford and Welker obviously, but I’m also a huge fan of Donald Brown and Greg Olson.  Mike did a good job in the later rounds.  The reason I have Mike in the bottom third of my rankings are the age of his primary running backs.  Turner and McGahee are just plain old for NFL standards and won’t get the work load Mike is expecting. Janikowski may kick some late winners for Mike, but in the end I see him falling short of the playoffs.

13. Kristen

Kristen’s draft turned into a mess in a hurry. I’m not sure which picks were made by her and which were auto-drafted except for the defense in the 7^th round! You know you’re in trouble when in a PPR league you only have 3 WR’s and two of them are Caucasian.  To make things worse, Kristen has not only two defenses, but two Kickers. That’s right two kickers, what else can I say.

14. Chris

This was a tough one for me because I did the actual picking of Chris’s players for him on draft day.  Just so everyone is clear, Chris gave me a very specific list and plan of what to do so the decisions were completely his.  Chris had 3 players he had to have and got them all so that was a plus.  Chris knew his strategy of drafting back to back TE was out of the box so I think he expected to be at the bottom here, but he will have his chance to prove he’s not that crazy after all.  I wish him the best.
