If its not, then what is our scoring system. I can't find it.

no thats for some morons league

Click on league settings at the top of our page then settings and you can see all the scoring. It is pretty typical.

10yards rush/recieve 1 pt
20 yards pass 1 pt
TD pass 4 pt
TD run/reception 6 pt
etc..

good work drafting TJ buzzy now that he got traded to the skins u get portis's backup

everyone gets lucky every now and then

Meh, I have TJ in my other league that's for money so I'm happy.

And I haven't done any official trading yet, but I'm in talks with quite a few people. I'm hoping that I don't give up too much to get the players I want, but I'm excited at the possibilities.

I think everybody and thier mothers have asked for LT.

Hmmmm NOO.

hahaha mine while im over here offering LJ to everyone...

Smas will you at least consider Chambers?

My fantasy draft is tomorrow guys! So psyched right now!

I do hope I get to draft later (out of 15 guys) so I can possibly shore up my starting backfield.

These are the guys I'd pick ahead of Manning:

LJ, LT, Shaun, Tiki, Edge, Stev Jack, LJordan, Rudi, Caddy, RBrown, McGahee, and WParker. Possibly Westbrook. What do you think about my draft stragedy?

If you're talking about Peyton Manning, don't pick Willie Parker. I love the guy to death, got my pic with him, and have 3 autographs from him, but he's not going to get more than 6 TD's all year.

Agreed. The rest could go before Manning (and someone will take him before that, so you won't have to worry about making the decision) but Parker should be after him. Maybe even guys like McGahee or Westbrook.

...hm. No one has asked for Alexander yet. I'm a bit surprised, though I really have no intention of giving him up.

Cowher insists that it's his team though. They're not going with a goal line/TD back; Pitt runs the ball more than anyone too. 🙁

See, my real concern is I'm terrified of not having 2 RBs in such a large league. Jumpy

And would it be so bad to have Willie and possibly Chester Taylor, Kevin Jones, or Juluis Jones in your backfield with 15 teams in your league? ...knowing that you likely passed on Steve Smith, Chad Johnson, and Peyton?

You may think I'm delusional, and that's fine-you're probably right half the time. But sit down yourself and do a 15 team mock draft. It's downright scary! 😱

You may have something, Digi. But, do a 15 team mock and see what you come up with. If you pass on McGahee or Westbrook, they'll be gone. And knowing then you have a possibilty at some stud WRs in the 2nd round, means you end up with no RBs. See my concern? No? 😕

I understand RBs are a huge concern with a 15-team league, but Manning likely to go in the top 10. So even if you only have 7 or 8 RBs "ahead" of him, chances are you wouldn't even get the opportunity to make a decision because he'd be gone.

I could see myself picking Manning late in round 1, but then you'd obviously have to go RB in the next 2 rounds.

And WR is always insanely deep. So I wouldn't be too worried there.

But your strategy is fine....you have enough Rbs ehead of Manning that you'll definitely be getting one in round 1. Then a stud WR or another solid RB in round 2, and you'll be starting a rather safe draft.

So I hope. And, I hope (as you said) that I may not even be in a position to consider him (Manning) a possibility.

Nothing wrong with Chester, Julius, or Kevin. In a 15-team league, you should honored to have them as your 2nd back.

I need a damn good trade value for LT.

That's what I'm thinking too. ...will have to see if I can choose or the draft dictates to me what I must pick.

i wouldnt draft manning at all. Hed never fall low enough for me to want to draft him. just sit on someone like hasselbeck,dellhome who will go several rounds later.

I have 2 offers for LJ that im going back and forth between in my head right now.. so if anyone else had any hopes of getting him better let me know asap.

BobbyD, my advice is always to look for backs who won't be sharing many carries, even if they're on crap teams. Mcgahee, Gore (one of the best values in fantasy right now because he's been falling in drafts), Chester Taylor, Ahman Green (the legit starter unless he gets hurt). All are great bargains for where you'll get them.

And yeah, Peyton isn't worth it, unless he falls to you in round 2 (which will never happen).

well we have our first trade and its a blockbuster one.

LJ/Benson for Stephen Jackson/Lamont Jordan.
