You're the bastage that was snaking my picks!

Edit: Actually, I'm pretty happy with the draft, though I think I'm weak on RB's since I took Peyton early.

You forgot you have Knowshon Moreno at Flex

Why do you have Prater at all?

Good damn question. I had forgotten he was suspended, and Bronco's and Seattle have the same bye week. Herp Derp.

Lol a D? I think my teams good.. I will say it's been a long ass time since I've done standard. 10+ years but I don't get the D..

Wow, that stings.

I don't write em. ESPN does. Call Skip Bayless and tell him to pump you up.

If skip wrote that...it would make a lot more sense.. He's clueless!

My team will do the talking this year!!

They're pretty dumb. To start, it's basically just ranking your team chronologically with a letter instead of number, so there can't be two A teams. The F team may be awesome, but they're ranked last for that league.

Second, it's entirely based on how many players you got that were highly ranked by ESPN.

That said, I have no idea how I ended up with the 3rd worst grade in league 1. This is by far my strongest fantasy team.

QB Luck
RB1 Lesean McCoy
RB2 Gio Bernard
WR1 Julio Jones
WR2 Desean Jackson (who for some reason ESPN absolutely hates...like this week is projected to be 4 fucking points? Really?)
TE Jordan Cameron
D/ST Tampa
K Mason Crosby

I mean, shit, that looks like a really fucking solid team to me.

Based on 2013 numbers:
#5 QB, who's more than likely going to at least stay the same if not get significantly better this season
#2 RB, who was a tossup this year as the #1 overall pick (and is also the youngest of the 3 between Charles and Peterson)
#15 RB
Julio Jones got hurt, but previously was a top 3 (or 5) WR before
#8 WR, who for some reason is projected to basically catch 1 pass a game now
#5 TE, projected to once again be top 5
#7 K
#10 defense, being taken over by Lovie Smith whose defenses are ball hawks

Madness!

Looks solid to me. That's probably not a good sign.

This.

If you drafted exactly along the lines of the ESPN rankings, and never reached for any player, even if only a few spots, (which is essentially the exact same as auto-drafting) you will get the top rankings on these recaps. I auto-drafted last year and got the #1 ranking. It's silly.

That said, Gravy, dude, you drafted 2 kickers...

Well, I dumped Prater. And picked up Folk.

It's been about 15 years since I've played a Fantasy team, and that's my excuse. I know I'm toast, but I'm still gonna kick your gerbil butt this week.

I autodrafted myself an A ranking.

Fun II Draft grades.

LOL, of course the only team with an A+ is team Blowfish. Team was autodrafted because i worked late that night. Prepare to be dominated by espn draft rankings guys.

You can rest assured that you will not be the only person making wrong choices this week!
