Milla4Prez63 678 Posted August 28, 2011 Just finished the draft, picked 11th in a 12 team league. QB-Peyton Manning RB-Maurice Jones-Drew RB-Felix Jones WR-Roddy White WR-Brandon Lloyd TE-Vernon Davis RB/WR/TE-Tim Hightower K-Matt Prater DB-Michael Griffin DL-Justin Tuck LB-Ray Lewis DB/DL/LB-DeMarcus Ware Bench-Kyle Orton Bench-Mike Tolbert Bench-Mike Sims-Walker Bench-AJ Green Bench-Dustin Keller Bench-Devin McCourty Bench-James Anderson I like it for the most part. I got Peyton in the 4th round because of his neck, but I honestly feel comfortable with Orton for a game or two until he's ready. I'm also really high on both Felix Jones and Tim Hightower, even though they both have the same bye week. I think Hightower is going to have a stat padded year in Shanahan's offense.

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted August 28, 2011 How'd the 1st round go...? Hard to believe that Mojo fell to 11th Overall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted August 28, 2011 How'd the 1st round go...? Hard to believe that Mojo fell to 11th Overall First round went exactly like this. I was kinda hoping Chris Johnson would fall to my pick because of his holdout, but he went one before I could take him. 1.Adrian Peterson 2.Tom Brady 3.Arian Foster 4.Ray Rice 5.Michael Vick 6.Aaron Rodgers 7.Andre Johnson 8.Jamaal Charles 9.LeSean McCoy 10.Chris Johnson 11.Maurice Jones-Drew 12.Calvin Johnson Thankfully a couple people went QB, I'm glad I stocked up on backs and was patient to get Peyton in the 4th round.

Socal 524 Posted August 28, 2011 Nice team, some similar players to my team I drafted on Monday night. I have P. Manning, Orton, and Hightower as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted August 28, 2011 Yikes.. Vick at 5? That guy is gonna be pissed that he wasted his 1st round pick this year. And Jamaal at 8 was a steal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted August 29, 2011 Yikes.. Vick at 5? That guy is gonna be pissed that he wasted his 1st round pick this year. And Jamaal at 8 was a steal. I lol'd when Vick went that high. I've always believed you go RB in the first round, glad MJD fell to me. I went QB in the 4th and 15th rounds and think I should be okay there. Worst case scenario for me is Manning's neck lingers long term and Orton ends up benched or something. On another note, I hate leagues where you have to draft defensive players lol. I'd rather just take a team defense and be done with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Socal 524 Posted August 29, 2011 I don't do leagues that draft individual defensive players. Here's my team, tell me what you think QB: Peyton Manning RB: Arian Foster RB: Michael Turner RB/WR: Ryan Grant WR: Reggie Wayne WR: Steve Johnson TE: Antonio Gates K: Alex Henery D/ST: Chargers Bench Kyle Orton Tim Hightower Ladainian Tomlinson Sidney Rice Plaxico Burress Danny Amendola Mike Williams(SEA) It's a co-owner league with my brother, I only picked the starters.

That is a beast lineup for the most part. Foster/Turner as the backs should be boss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Outstanding team. You got a top RB who is huge in the pass game as well, one of the top 3 WRs, and as your secondary starters you selected guys who have major roles and tons of upside. My only complaint is that your bench has little upside and it does not contain Rashad Jennings. If I draft Maurice Jones-Drew, you bet your ass I'm making sure I get Rashad Jennings, and you'd have to burn a 9th/10th rounder on him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
