I better win the league... So some buddies of mine needed a 10th person for there league on yahoo. A few hours before the draft I get into it with them. $10 league, nothing too serious... I have the 9th pick in the draft...
Now first I have to say that this league is dumb as fuck... it's standard fantasy numbers only QB's are the big point scorers. passing, receiving, rushing is one point for every 20 yards... bit weird with passing yard being the same as rushing or receiving, but to top that off each COMPLETION is worth 1 point. Hence based on last year numbers Culpepper scored something like 879 points, Manning 840, and Tomlinson had like 180 points... Td's are all 6 as well... And we're playing individual Def. players.
Starting lineups have a QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, Flex, TE, K, team defense, d, d, bench, bench, bench, bench, bench
So with the 9th pick I take Culpepper... who should be the highest scoring player in the league...
With the 11th pick I know I need to take a RB, so I have to choose between Kevin Jones and Jamal Lewis... Decide to take Lewis....
Draft goes around and Kevin Jones is still on the board... So I snag him up and then I come back and get TO.... Anyways the team looks like this....
Culpepper
TO
Steve Smith
Jamal Lewis
Kevin Jones
Todd Heap
Brian Westbrook
Lamont Jordan - Bench
Fred Taylor - Bench
Ashlie Lelie - Bench
Carson Palmer - Bench
Vanderjagt
Carolina D
Ray Lewis
Donnie Edwards
Brian Urlacher - Bench
Someone dropped Donald Driver today, so I may drop someone to pick him up, but my depth at RB, having TO and two solid WR... the best 3 linebackers (IMO), and a still having a solid TE? This league should be MINE!!! |
