    Moved to the pro sports area.....I'm in a couple leagues this year......supposed to be in three but I have to go to a wedding on the night they're doing the draft. I've ran a league that is in it's 10th year now. My drafts aren't until the last week before the season.....

    Debated on waiting till closer to the season for the draft. But all the whiners wanted to do it earlier. Cant decide whether to take a Qb or a RB first. Really depends on where im at in the draft. But I feel there is more qbs that put up numbers than solid running backs.

    I just recorded and made a vid for EA Sports on the upcoming fantasy season. The first vid was the top 10 players of 2009, and 8 of them were QB's....I think that is plenty of proof that the days of RB's going all in the first two rounds is done. Too many RBBC's for a RB to flourish, with the exception of a few.

    Agreed, so does that mean you take a proven RB that will put up #s and take a chance on a QB or the other way around. Whats the top 10 players?

    Here's the "pilot episode" it's kinda rough, as it was more intended just as a basis for what I am going to do later on. The screen shots were from Madden 10. Going to use in-game footage instead of stills....plus I forgot to remove the in-game music for Peyton Manning

    Yeah last year with 6-point per TD QB scoring, there wasn't much of a difference after Aaron Rodgers between QB's two through eight.

    Johnson's worth a 1st rounder....Flacco, not so sure. He's got weapons now....but probably coulda got him later.

    Most definitely Flacco was probably a poor pick. Probably could have gotten someone better like Romo or Shaub (or McNabb) before him.

    Yea could have gotten Shaub and but Flacco has put up good #s without the a good core. Just making a case for myself. Here is what they say about my team.

    There's no doubt that it's a solid core man. Just gotta hope that he has a good year cause a good QB is HARD to come by otherwise in a FFL unless you have a small league.

    I really need to get to studying as all this is off the top of my head but your WR's are GREAT, your RB's are young but have the chance to be solid. Bengals D was 4th in the NFL last year. QB is probably your weakest link.

    I will say, you're wasting a spot with Devin Thomas. The dude will be LUCKY to even be on the roster at the end of preseason. He's ATROCIOUS right now, for some reason.

    Yeah when it comes to bye weeks, you will probably need to find some better options at WR. I am predicting as a Bears fan that Aromashodu could have a breakout season after his flurry to end the year. I think he's already risen to 3rd in the depth chart ahead of Bennett and behind Hester and Knox. Plus he's now in Mike Martz's offense. Another sleeper could be Heyward-Bey. He'll never live up to the 7th pick overall, but I think the combo of him and Campbell could be okay.

    We're doing an auction style draft for the first time this year. Anyone ever done one? Tips, hints, strategies always welcome!

    Working on a trade to get Ryan grant for Sanchez. that leaves me with Flacco and Freeman as my qbs. But I now have Shon Greene, Ryan Matthews, Willis Mcgahee and Ryan Grant as my RBs
