Good to see this thread back.

I'll make sure to grab him. Heard his is busy catching the bail.

I heard he can really take it to the hole

[4thelvofthegme]

guys like welker who get more receptions but less yards and tds become more valuable. Darren sproles also jumps up the board

[rbforme]

Already can't wait till football season, I just hope this year I don't lose in the championship game...

Not much to note besides the obvious. WRs get a nice boost from the reception points. Sproles jumps up in value. Jamal Charles is another potential guy I'm looking at for good value in ppr.

I play in a .5 one, it isn't a huge deal really. Main thing to look into is back used in more on passing downs (sproles,charles, etc). 2 seasons ago sproles ended up being top 8 (i think) and last year he ended around 13.

Slot receivers like amendola and welker do really well since they get a lot of catches. Witten is the same way

[EastCoastNiner]

Aaron Hernandez is going to have a massive year. If Vereen is available late in the draft, I'd go for him as well as he'll be getting a lot of the goal-line carries this year.

[Impurityz]

okay so how do you guys feel about the 3 wrs in Den?
I m guessing the usual order would be
DT
Welker
Decker

but in terms of value, I really could go or any of the three. I think DT goes in 2nd/3rd and then Welker and Decke stay until 4/5

I think I could wait on DT and grab a rb and grab another Den wr who can produce the same numbers.
Denver also has a very good match up or their WRs

Who was their WR3 last year? Caldwell or someone else I can't remember. I also wonder how much welker will cut into decker and dmts catches. As tempting as DMT is, I would rather have a solid RB in the second, and depending on who is there go for a WR in the third. Top teir WR are dropping there anyway.

edit: never mind it was stokley

[liuzhoudragon]

So what are bros thinking in terms of a back up QB.

I seem to get stuck between wether I want Freeman or Palmer. Palmer has the better recievers (fitz) but Freeman has the easier division and Dougie to open up the game.

Do i even need to draft one or can you just pick one up off wavier wires?

also on topic of DEN recievers......no one wether to choose welker or decker.

Won't be touching DT or Decker as far as I can see; upside a bit capped for DT and Decker has too many other options on the team.
DT is going tremendously high and I think other WR his caliber will be better picks.
In that sense, I feel Welker might be okay and he's not going that early.

Backup QBs:
Don't need unless Qb is RGIII imo.
Just use FA for that 1 week your QB is on a bye and save up that spot for a flier WR/RB.

DT > Welker > Decker

Not sure how the work is going to get divided between welker and decker, but DT will get his. I think Decker + Welker combine for something around what Decker2012+Stokely did, but with 100-200 more yards

would still draft DT over someone like Fitz or White

[liuzhoudragon]

any input on my drafts.

also what about Bowe vs T smith.

Bowe now has an accurate Qb instead two jokes......and andy reid loves to throw.

T smith is going to be bigger part of the offense now with Boldin gone.

I'd be more inclined to take Torrey

about your drafts: imo 10 team drafts usually end up with every team being pretty stacked
also, tl;dr try posting mocks one at a time

Bowe

[notWilliam]

Bowe > Smith its not close.

I acutally don't think Boldin's departure helps Torrey that much.

A lot of people think that if an offense declines, then other pieces will just immediately pick up the slack and produce career years.
Most of the time, it doesnt work out that way

Smith didn't improve off his rookie year

Bowe has shown 1000+ yd season and 15tds. I think Bowe is better then torrey easily. Also, KC has better WR matchups then Bal and both have very similar SoS playoffs.
I don't think Boldin being gone does a great deal for Torrey either.

[liuzhoudragon]

what about romo vs stafford?

stafford goes a bit earlier but both pretty late.

I am predicting an up year for stafford last year him and megatron has oddly low TD for all the yards they put up. bush is a nice small addition.

Romo goes a round or so later.......has some very favorable matchups....not quite as good as stafford

What makes you think so?

[cbad7676]

been getting Cobb in almost every single draft.

Also this has come up several times.

Decker or Welker

welker for rec/yards, decker for tds

[liuzhoudragon]

also torn on decker vs welker.

Peyton never seems to use TEs...........does he do much with sloot recievers?

also torn on my 3rd reciver. Shorts....S Johnson.....Mike Williams......Lance Moore (the first two go a bit earlier than the last two)

why do I keep hearing online Pierce is going to steal carries and TD from Rice? No one drafts Pierce if they are thinking this. He goes in the final rounds if he goes.

I usually can grab better wr3s in a 12 man.... are u drafting a te early?

[Farley1324]

He probably is. In mocks I've been taking Gronk in round 5, which puts WR3 to at least round 6, and those are the kinds of guys who seem to be available IIRC. EIther that or he takes a high QB or takes a RB3 before a WR3. My guess.
