Fantasy Team / Peterson v. Johnson


davos

Recommended Posts

Looking to see what some of y'all think of my team. I was stuck with the 10th pick out of 12 teams in a big money league, but got sorta lucky with my 1st pick...let's see what ya think:

QB - Eli Manning (People went QB crazy in the first, so I decided to wait)

RB - Ray Rice (10th), Shonn Greene, J. Harrison, Chester Taylor

WR - DeSean Jackson, Sims-Walker, Wes Welker, Jacoby Jones

TE - Greg Olsen

D - Baltimore

K - David Akers

On another note, I have the 1st pick in my second league. Do you think Peterson or C. Johnson is gonna have the better year?

Thanks in advance for the criticism

Ray Rice you got incredibly lucky with @ 10, but that's where your draft started going down (speaking personally). I don't desean or shonn greene to satisfy their ADP this year, or even get close really. I like the jacoby jones, wes welker and chester taylor picks (depending on round taken). Akers always satisfies it seems.

I'm in a 14 team league with QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR, TE, D format with standard scoring and I've gotten to:

QB- Jay Cutler

WR- Calvin Johnson, Hakeem Nicks, Santana Moss

RB- Maurice Jones-Drew, Rashard Mendenhall

TE- Jermichael Finley

D- Carolina

K - Rian Lindell

Bench: Malcolm Floyd, Johnny Knox, Zach Miller, Vincent Jackson, LaDainian Tomlinson, NYG Defense

I used my waiver spot to get Zach Miller and made a trade for V Jack using Victor Cruz and Jake Delhomme off a hunch he is traded

Honestly, that team is solid for even a 12 team league, let alone raking in that crew with a 14 team league. Calvin Johnson, Nicks, MJD, Mendenhall, Finley, with Floyd (#1 wr in SD) and Vincent Jackson who will probably play somewhere this year. Cutler is suspect but props to you my friend on a sick draft in a deep league.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
