    I got a 14 team auction league coming up. I don't play many auction leagues, but this year, our money league is trying something new. Tips or strategies?

    You people are way too down on P. Manning. He just put up the most yds in his career last year and 2nd most TDs. Kurt Warner was shredding the league at 38 or so.

    I can't speak for others but I dont draft in division players out of conflict of interest.


    That said, the injury concerns regarding his neck are keeping a lot of folks away from him.

    RB McCoy (9)
    RB Wells (49)

    WR Fitzgerald (12)
    WR Nicks (32)

    Flex Harvin (52)

    TE Daniels (72)

    K Janikowski

    D Saints

    Bench: Hightower (69), MStafford, MFloyd, WMcGahee, LMoore, BTate, LKendricks.

    Nice team, I would say RB2 might be your only weakness, but one of Wells, Hightower or McGahee should turn out to be useful.

    I don't agree with that at all. Why sacrifice wins? If you team gets squashed on Sunday, hey at least maybe it wasn't a total loss.

    have a done about 5 mock drafts from that site, moes posted. seems people go for their defense about the 11th-12th rd in a 15 rd draft. that seem right? also i've noticed either kickers are taken in last round or in some cases not taken at all. thoughts on that? it just easier to get a kicker off waivers than waste a pick?

    8 team league
    standard yahoo scoring (except 4 points per passing TD)
    $20 buy-in
    3 W/T
    2 RB
    1 QB

    1. Ray Rice RB
    2. Michael Turner RB
    3. Vincent Jackson WR
    4. Miles Austin WR
    5. Mike Wallace WR
    6. Mark Ingram RB
    7. Cedric Benson RB
    8. Brandon Marshall WR
    9. Ben Roethlisberger QB
    10. Matt Ryan QB
    11. New York Giants DEF
    12. Mike Thomas WR
    13. Sebastian Janikowski K
    14. Marshawn Lynch RB

    I can't believe I got stuck with Big Ben/Matty Ice again... all the freaking QBs got taken in the first 3 rounds, I was gunning for Romo in the 4th, but got sniped... after that, I decided to just go hardcore WR/RB... and take my chances on getting a decent QB combo later.

    I really wouldn't worry about a Kicker until the last round unless you're that confident your roster is set.

    Here's how it turned out:

    Budget $200
    1. (2) Arian Foster
    (Hou - RB)
    $49
    2. (7) Andre Johnson
    (Hou - WR)
    $50
    3. (12) Roddy White
    (Atl - WR)
    $48
    4. (53) Ahmad Bradshaw
    (NYG - RB)
    $27
    5. (80) Matthew Stafford
    (Det - QB)
    $11
    6. (101) Mikel LeShoure
    (Det - RB)
    $1
    7. (130) Brandon Pettigrew
    (Det - TE)
    $4
    8. (145) Ryan Fitzpatrick
    (Buf - QB)
    $4
    9. (168) Ben Tate
    (Hou - RB)
    $1
    10. (177) Darren Sproles
    (NO - RB)
    $1
    11. (183) Mike Williams
    (Sea - WR)
    $1
    12. (188) Arrelious Benn
    (TB - WR)
    $1
    13. (191) Robbie Gould
    (Chi - K)
    $1
    14. (194) Minnesota
    (Min - DEF)
    $1

    I dropped Leshore for Keven Walter and the Minn D for Arizona (play Car week 1)

    looks like this:
    QB Matthew Stafford (Det - QB)
    WR Andre Johnson (Hou - WR)
    WR Roddy White (Atl - WR)
    WR Mike Williams (Sea - WR)
    RB Arian Foster (Hou - RB)
    RB Ahmad Bradshaw (NYG - RB)
    TE Brandon Pettigrew (Det - TE)
    K Robbie Gould (Chi - K)
    DEF Arizona (Ari - DEF)

    with Fitzpatrick, tate, sproles, walter, and A. Benn

    Think i did pretty good for my first auction draft since it's PPR i went for stud Receivers first. The Foster pick was as a result of disconnecting so I was stuck with him, but then again I paid a little less then the average of what he was going for. I much have rather preferred CJ2k, Mccoy, or Rice (MOSTLY RICE).

    Trying to swing a deal for Bradford. Offering Starks (both were taken in Rd 10 in my league, he has Brady already).

    Through no fault of his own, Charles is clearly limited. #2 in yards is great but can he really keep up his 7 yard clip? TJ will be used less, but it wouldn't surprise me to see McCluster see some touches too.

    A player that is a risk, not because he isn't freaky awesome, but because Haley hates fantasy owners.

    12 team auction league. I wasn't used to auction, so I may have not done as well as I should have. Non PPR. This league is r****ded though and definitley my back up. We had a guy blow half his budget on Rodgers and Brees. All the top RBs went for like $75.
