Completed my dynasty startup draft

Postby UnsafeAtAnySpd » Mon Aug 10, 2015 12:31 pm

So last night was my dynasty startup draft. This is a salary cap league that I'm commissioning. There were a few issues I was dealing with that threw off my bidding making me miss out on some guys and pick up a couple I didn't intend to draft. That said, here's what I ended up with below. I still have to add 10 more players via free agency and assign contracts (75 years max). Start QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/WR/TE/FLEX/K/D. .5 PPR (.75PPR) with yardage bonuses. Otherwise, fairly standard scoring.

QB
Dalton, A
Flacco, J

RB
Yeldon, T
Abdullah, A
Helu, R
McKinnon, J
Sims, C

WR
Jones, J
Hopkins, D
Cooper, A
Robinson, A
Agholor, N
Johnson, Charles
Moncrief, D
Gordon, J

TE
Kelce, T
Eifert, T
Williams, M

Your WRs and TEs look great. Your QBs look mediocre. Your RBs look bad.

I love Abdullah and Yeldon but not that much this year , the others I don't like much maybe trade a WR and one of the RBs not named Abdullah and Yeldon for a real good RB , But try to stay young you have a real nice core in a year or 2 if you don't mess with it to much your team will be sick (Maybe just a QB needed)

Love it. You have a core of WR's. A young stud TE in Kelce and a promising one in Eifert. QB you're weak but you'll be able to upgrade later.

I like the RB's too. I'm a big fan of Yeldon and Abdullah, and considering there's some PPR value there, that makes Helu/Sims much more attractive. You're set up for long-term success, good job.

I like it. Your WRs and TEs are really good and mostly young and I'm also a big fan of Yeldon, Abdullah and even Helu in PPR. I'm not crazy about your QBs but Flacco can be effective and like someone else said, you can upgrade those later. Is this league on Reality Sports Online by chance? I have a salary cap auction league draft coming up next weekend on there and your settings looked pretty similar.

Thanks for the input, guys. Yeah, I definitely like my pass receiving corps as it sits right now and will probably be starting 4 WR every week. QBs are definitely meh but a couple teams seemed to be hoarding QBs to force trades for them later (or they were just dumb which is quite a possibility lol). With the auction, it made it possible to scoop them up. RBs have potential, but not having a 'sure thing' definitely hurts and is something I'll be looking to upgrade.

We have blind bidding going on this week with the bids clearing next Wednesday, so we'll see what kind of garbage I can add to finish out my bench. :oops:

Edit: League is on MFL.

Our blind bids cleared this morning, so I thought that I would update this thread. Now in addition to the guys copy/pasted below, I also have rostered:

QB
Garoppolo, Jimmy

RB
Johnson, Chris
Thomas, Pierre
Williams, Karlos

WR
Carter, Duron
Coleman, Brandon
Dobson, Aaron
Pryor, Terrelle

I might end up dropping a couple of these new guys and going after some other free agents, but I can't go any higher in total numbers than right now as I still need a Def and K before week one.



Already had...

QB
Dalton, A
Flacco, J

RB
Yeldon, T
Abdullah, A
Helu, R
McKinnon, J
Sims, C

WR
Jones, J
Hopkins, D
Cooper, A
Robinson, A
Agholor, N
Johnson, Charles
Moncrief, D
Gordon, J

TE
Kelce, T
Eifert, T
Williams, M

I thought that I'd update this thread with updates and impressions thus far rather than creating another...

Only changes to my last post are that I dropped Carter and Jimmy G for my kicker and streaming defense (not many options here as most are rostered).

I also traded away Moncrief for a '16 First.

After two weeks, I'm one of only two teams that's undefeated and play the other team this week. Highest point total in the league too despite Flacco putting up a 0 Week 1.

I'd still like a RB upgrade as well as a more consistent QB but really even Dalton isn't looking too bad so far. We'll see how this week goes, but I'm still really liking my roster in this league.
