Postby pvballer3915 » Sat May 22, 2010 10:23 pm

Hey guys, i just selected Thomas at 1.8. He looks really good. Do you think hes the real deal? and Should i be happy that he fell that low?

I have Benn and him very close.

That's a nice pick at 1.8. If he can overcome the stupidity of Josh McDaniels, I think Demaryius has a chance to really blossom although it may take a bit for him to transition from Georgia Tech's offense to an NFL offense, so don't get frustrated if he struggles initially.
Start: 2 QB, 3 RB, 5 WR, 2 TE (All TDs=6, 1 per 10 rush/rec, 1 per 25 pass, NO PPR) 8 teams
QB: Rodgers, Vick, Cutler, Schaub, Luck
RB: Rice, CJ, McFadden, Richardson, Stewart, Ingram, Spiller, Vereen
WR: Green, Marshall, Roddy, Jennings, Roddy, Bowe, Maclin, Britt, A Brown, Williams (TB), Collie, Smith (STL)
TE: Graham, Finley, F Davis, Cook
Taxi Squad: Tebow, Crabtree, Jeffrey, Hill, Gordon

Bert..you have to STOP this!!! :D

Thomas was a gift. He is a very nice WR, but you are going to have to be patient with him. :wink:

Be ecstatic that he was there. I was almost lucky enough to get him at 1.07 but he was taken the pick before. Would have loved to have him.
