Fantasy Football 2016 League and Discussion

So, considering the implications of the Teddy Bridgewater injury.

This instantly hits anyone who thought they'd nab Tom Brady early and thought their gamble paid off by getting the young signal caller in the late rounds, thankfully this never happened and we believe in Fitzmagic.

This also buggers anyone who drafted two WRs who have a bye week the same week and decided to pick up Stefon Diggs hoping he and Bridgewater would rekindle their connection from Diggs' impressive rookie year, so that's me buggered.

However whoever got AP just probably had his stock value shoot up even higher with the likelihood that Minnesota will have a run heavy offence, had this injury happened before the draft you wonder if Petersen would have gone before 5th overall.

I don't think it will be as bad as you think it will be .

My early Brady pick will still hold weight and Fitz will hold me over until Week 5....plus now I have a WR1+QB combo and you know he's going to be throwing it to Marshall.

Always gotta have a backup plan and Fitz was the other QB I heavily thought about taking over Bridgewater regardless so I'm still OK!

[Pendulous]

Yay. Drafted on a smaller site without a real football presence, so we only had eight people. So, stacked lineups commence!

Actually, I kinda went homer picks just for funsies. Didn't take it as serious as ours. Soooo

QB: Philip Rivers, Carson Palmer
RB: Ezekiel Elliot, Jamaal Charles, Ryan Matthews, Jonathan Stewart, Derrick Henry
WR: AJ Green, Brandon Marshall, Jeremy Maclin, Kelvin Benjamin
TE: Delanie Walker, Antonio Gates
K: Dan Bailey
Defense: St. Louis Rams

Two Cowboys, two Chiefs, and a rookie from Alabama. So yeah. To be fair, I don't count kickers as homer picks, plus Bailey is money. But I did end up with Charles again, and it's gonna be bad because he won't play week one, and his snaps might be limited after that. My receivers could be better, but I kept getting sniped. Benjamin is going to end up with less snaps than last year, according to their head coach too.

[Crissi]

well glad I got a backup RB then for Charles... *switches*

[DayDayKnucks]

They are saying Charles isn't even a lock for week 2 yet.

That would be a bummer since he didn't play a single snap last year.

[Twix]

Football is back! Good luck ladies and gentlemen!

Benjamin back to business!

[Crissi]

Olseeeeeeen! Darn it!

[Pendulous]

But of course I didn't start Benjamin...

[Skayaq]

I really hope it doesn't bite me in the ass that I didn't start Wallace.

[Northern Goblin]

I could moan about the lost 10 points that I missed out on my bench, but looking at my matchup for this week I will happily keep quiet and pray Antonio Brown has an awful night.

[draynay]

At least I won't have to worry about being last on the waiver wire.

Things went poorly for me.

Well, so much for that.....

[Pendulous]

Well, so much for that.....

I'm against you this week. And I noticed that if you add your two receivers' yards together, they're 58 yards behind Spencer Ware's receiving yards. That's insane.

Not a knock towards you, just a messed up stat.

[THE Bigzoman]

TB with the narrow win.

On to week 2.

I'm coming for the crown slippers!

It is a long season buddy.

[Pendulous]

Easily lost now that DeAngelo Williams starting breaking out. Don't expect Tavon Austin and LA's defense to give me over 30 points.

[Crissi]

I got smashed by apepi, but I figured I will be smashed by a lot of people. First game ever.

I blame my backup RP not doing much and Dak not finishing in the endzone

[draynay]

Well, so much for that.....

Indeed, that was some real wishful thinking!
