    how many teams? if that is a 10 man league, the rest of your league is screwed (assuming your players stay healthy of course). Very top heavy, but there is solid RB depth with Thomas/McFadden. I would look to get a better TE if possible though.

    Just finished my 8 team draft that i play with Owen Daniels. It's more of a fun league and so i feel my team is uber stacked because I'm too competitive to make questionable picks like others did.

    That being said its your standard rules draft.

    QB - Romo
    RB - McCoy, L.Bell, Ellington, Stacy, Gerhart
    WR - Aj Green, A.Jeffrey, D.Jackson, M.Floyd, J.Maclin, J.Edelman
    TE - Jimmy Graham
    DST - KC Chiefs
    K - Dan Bailey

    Seems Daaamn stacked to me, thoughts?

    I just finished my last 2 yahoo pro league drafts.

    Team 1:

    Brady/Cutler
    Lynch/Morris/Gerhart/F.Jackson/Moreno
    Dez/Hilton/Emmanuel Sanders/Golden Tate
    Julius Thomas
    Carolina/Cincinnati
    McManus

    Everyone was drafting wide receivers early. By the 5th round, Hilton was the highest ranked player so I took him.

    Team 2:

    Romo/RG3
    Lynch/Spiller/C.Johnson/S.Jackson
    Antonio Brown/Roddy/Pierre Garcon/Emmanuel Sanders/Cecil Shorts
    Graham
    New England/Kansas City

    OK, this is my first ever FF draft. I was late to the draft party and had the first 4 rounds go autopick on me.:mad: so I didnt even get close to who I wanted.

    Standard 12 team league on nfl.com 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1Flex

    QB - Rodgers, Kaepernick
    RB - Tate, Ridley, Sproles, Grimes
    WR - K Wright, D Hopkins, H Nicks, W Welker
    TE - K Rudolf, Fiedorowicz
    K - N Folk
    DST - Seahawks, Texans

    Week 10 is already a guaranteed loss since half my roster is on Bye. (Texans, Colts, Pats, Vikings)

    Im most disappointed in how this went, but I was probably gonna suck at it this year anyway so Im marking this as a learning experience and thankfully it doesnt cost me any real money.

    Ouch.

    Your only hope is to trade Rodgers for a decent RB and WR and then pray you hit the waiver lottery.

    Yeah, I really dont understand the way the autopick thing works, it drafted me two QBs and 2 defenses in the first four rounds. After that, it was a matter of tryin to play catch up with what I could since ALL the great RBs and WRs were already gone by the time I sat down and got online.

    It was actually worse than it looks, Ive already dropped two and replaced them with someone barely better than the guys I dropped.

    So far, nothing has hit the waiver, trust me Im keeping an eye on it.

    Even I can tell how bad this went for me.

    Yeah I was wondering how you ended up with like only 1 guy even worthy of going in the top 4 rounds.

    Sucks man, you'll probably have to end up biting the bullet this year.

    I would try to trade Rodgers and Seattle D for anything you can get as far as RB/WR help.

    Yeah that's ugly R2K. I can't even figure out who your top 4 picks outside of Aaron Rodgers.

    Who's left on your waiver wire, as moes said you might have to hit it up for some golden nuggets to get you through this season.

    Did you set a queue pre-draft? If not your buddies probably messed with you...

    I dont remember doing so, but I was futzing around with the interface after I signed up(3 weeks predraft) so I guess it is possible that I messed something up...remember, this is my first attempt at fantasy anything.

    No argument from me....absolutely no argument.:(

    Autodraft would never select defenses that early unless you were putting them into a queue. When you have queue set up, it will usually treat that as its default list and draft whatever is in that queue based on order.

    lulz

    I had a feeling Seattle was gonna really affect his game, so I made the gutsy move of benching him in favor of Kaepernick, who is going against Dallas this week and I felt he should have a better week.

    Went ahead and took advice and put Rodgers on the block. Got one formal proposal and one that has been relayed to me but not officially made yet. (it involves AP)
