your second point is interesting and not something anyone brought up yesterday...that definitely adds some strategy to the mix

it was definitely brought up but everyone was yelling over each other

Need a good name for one of my fantasy teams. I hate using football related stuff although Death Rowe works because of this place. I have names like Heisenberg, King of the North, Omar's Coming...shtein like that. I'm bored, any suggestions?

Had drafts the last two days, both are 6 pts. per passing TD. Noticed people are still stacking RBs, I have 2 #1 WRs in both leagues because they're .5 ppr and 1 pt ppr. RBs are a little thin but I think I can get by. Took a late round flier in both leagues on Todd Gurley. His stock really plummeted but I don't mind sitting on him for a month until he's ready to roll. Could be my ace in the hole.

I did the same thing with Gurley in our Keeper League.

To this day, Amish Porn Stars is the best FF name I've ever heard of.  But that's taken, so...

Sgt PSN

I've been naming my teams based on crazy people or news at the time.....like Pill Cosby this year, Jerry's Kids when Sandusky was a thing, CharlieSheenWinning! when he had his meltdown, etc, etc.  I try to stay away from pop culture references, especially anything to do with Breaking Bad or The Wire.  Pretty sure our keeper league is the only league on the planet that doesn't reference at least 1 of those shows.

had my draft at Igy's yesterday and went all in on the zero rb strategy.  I had the 7th pick out of 10

my roster looks like this

QB - Matt Ryan
RB - Frank Gore, Mark Ingram, CJ Spiller, Latavious Murray, Rashad Jennings, Dan Herron
WR - Antonio Brown, Demaryious Thomas, Jordan Mathews, Jon Brown
TE - Jason Witten

I would have preferred another tight end but i'll end up streaming them this year.  overall i'm happy with the results which means my team will be terrible.

Also went with the zero rb strategy. Little surprised nobody else went WR/WR they stacked up on backs. Old train of thought in my opinion.

10 team PPR 6 pts per TD pass

QB Roethlisberger
RB Shady, Rashad Jennings, Gio Bernard, Todd Gurley, Denard Robinson
WR Julio Jones, Megatron, Jordan Matthews, Brandon Marshall, Martavias Bryant, Vincent Jackson, Devante Parker, Brashad Perriman

It's 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR/TE, 1 Flex WR/TE/RB

12 team .5 PPR 6 pts per TD pass
QB Matt Ryan
RB Lamar Miller, Joseph Randle, Todd Gurley, Devanta Freeman
WR Antonio Brown, AJ Green, Brandon Marshall, Devante Parker, Brashad Perriman, Brandon Coleman, Tyler Lockett
TE Greg Olsen, Antonio Gates (usually don't carry two TEs but he was there late and was bpa)

It's 1 QB 2 RB 3 WR 1 TE no Flex

the 2nd team is a little light in RB but that's too be expected with 12 teams.  both are solid teams

Thanks and yeah I agree. I'm hoping Randle can do well for a month or so. Gurley is supposed to start playing by week 4. He's probably one of the top 10 most talented running backs in the world. Hopefully he gets a full workload at some point. In two of my other leagues I sat until the 6th or 7th round then picked up the likes of Doug Martin and Chris Ivory but people caught onto that with these drafts so I was stuck with what I got. I read up and work waivers pretty well so we'll see.

Munson

Got my main keeper league auction tonight. 2nd time in league history it's being done online, which blows. Needs to be in person next year.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds
