Between Hightower, Houston's defense, and Walsh (Vikings kicker), I had a fantastic final week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2401585 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 10:31:01 +0000 78h2o 2401585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@catlady: oh my gosh, I would be so annoyed!!! That is really crappy and sort of incredible...how the heck did he end up with healthy players left on his roster?! I do think luck is a big part of it. In my league, I feel like it was about 50/50 skill and luck. The only teams to make the finals were heavily managed, but luck definitely played a huge role. I won by 70 pts in the 2nd round, but then only won in the championship because my opponent had Hightower on her bench.</p> <p> @Jess1483: Good luck! So glad your DH won! Good luck this week!</p> <p>Our pot was split between regular season 1st/2nd and championship 1st/2nd. So I ended up with $175, which isn't a crazy amount, but still nice!</p> <p>@MrsKoala: The games this week were brutal. My team totally sucked... the only reason I won was because my opponent's team sucked even more. Not the most satisfying win, but whatever! 2nd place is great too. Congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2401564 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 10:23:53 +0000 MrsKoala 2401564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: congratulations on your championship!!!!!! I lost in the finals but 2nd place isn't so bad. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2401560 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 10:21:43 +0000 Jess1483 2401560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: wahoo! DH won our money league (yay) and I'm halfway through my final in my other league. I made some poor choices, but luckily I think we will come out close to even and the game will be decided next week. We shall see. I placed second last year and really don't want to repeat that performance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2401557 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 10:19:04 +0000 catlady 2401557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My team was in the championship too but I lost! :( This basically verifies my assumption that our league is entirely chance and no skill at all due to the fact that we use auto-draft and no one ever makes trades. The guy who won it all was one of 3 people in our league who never once managed his team. He doesn't even know how to log into his account. The crazy part was that there were 13 of us in the league who actually did play and somehow this guy won. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2401548 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 10:13:39 +0000 78h2o 2401548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jess1483: @MrsKoala: Wow, my team actually won the championship last night (no thanks to Eli or AB)! I owe my win to both of you, since I was so clueless at first. I have really enjoyed playing, and the Fantasy Focus podcast and phone app made my commute and long nursing sessions enjoyable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2358441 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 14:40:21 +0000 MrsKoala 2358441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost again this week. With Bell injured and now Edelman and Freeman on a bye, I don't think I'll even score more than 70 points this week! Oh well. I'm still in first place with a good point lead so I should be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2358439 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 14:39:13 +0000 MrsKoala 2358439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: Eli for sure.... and I guess Ryan since Romo is still out and we don't know how he'll be when he gets back. Are there any decent TEs available? I picked up Richard Rodgers last week and he did well (and again this week). Might be worth checking out? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/4#post-2358095 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 12:14:42 +0000 78h2o 2358095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jess1483 @MrsKoala: Out of Ryan, Eli, and Romo, which two QBs would you keep? I probably don't need to hang on to all 3... </p> <p>Despite losing Dion Lewis, Steve Smith Sr, Lance Dunbar, etc. my team is currently doing pretty well (7-3). The main struggling positions are QB and TE. For TE I have Watson. I can't get anyone to trade with me though... there's only one person that I have found that will even respond, and she is always offering me terrible trades and rejecting my offers, lol! Hope everyone else is doing well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2344482 Wed, 04 Nov 2015 14:55:29 +0000 MrsKoala 2344482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I think Stevie is a pretty good pickup! He has pretty good rapport with Rivers and he'll most likely get better and better as he recovers from his injury. Good job! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2344348 Wed, 04 Nov 2015 13:19:00 +0000 78h2o 2344348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: That's great you had Williams! </p> <p>So I am 6-2 now, which puts me 2nd overall, despite having a pretty low point total. My opponents have back luck, essentially... I have the lowest "points against" total of anyone. Good for me, but I worry about my team's strength. Gurley is doing well though and hopefully Brown will be better with Ben back, so we'll see.</p> <p>Re pickups, Floyd wasn't available. I ended up picking up Stevie Johnson, Sammy Watkins, and Karlos Williams. Actually, I picked up DaVante Adams, but then I felt like I had too many WRs so I switched to Williams. I need a better defense. Someone has both the Rams and Vikings… I was thinking about trying to get her to trade one of them to me. Or maybe I will just drop the Bills and stream each week. There aren’t very good options available though this week, so I might have to keep the Bills. If I were to try to trade for the Vikings, lets say, who would I trade? Is it silly to trade for a D/ST that isn't the Broncos?</p> <p>Not a lot of trades happening in my league… someone offered me Diggs and J. Brown for A. Brown but I declined.</p> <p>So now my team looks like this:<br /> QB: M. Ryan, E. Manning<br /> RB: M. Ingram, T. Yeldon, T. Gurley, D. Lewis, K. Williams<br /> WR: A. Brown, M. Evans, LaFell, S. Johnson, S. Watkins, T. Benjamin<br /> TE: B. Watson<br /> D/ST: Bills<br /> K: R. Gould </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2342239 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 11:42:13 +0000 MrsKoala 2342239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 6-1 and on my way to 7-1! One of my best players, Le'Veon Bell, is probably out for the season but luckily, I had his backup DeAngelo Williams so I'm okay in terms of RB. My team has been pretty phenomenal so I'm not tinkering with it at all. </p> <p>@78h2o: Is Malcom Floyd available at all in your league? He might be a good pickup for WR. Not always the most consistent but he had a good week this week. Not sure about Romo.... I think it's risky but it could payoff. I stashed a player for 12 weeks two years ago (Shane Vereen) and it paid off big time so sometimes it's worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2342223 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 11:22:16 +0000 78h2o 2342223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just checking to see how everyone is doing?!</p> <p>I'm 5-2 and hoping I will be 6-2 after tonight, which will put me in 2nd place. I have a 34 point lead, but my opponent has a WR2 and Flex RB playing tonight, so we'll see. I lost Steve Smith Sr. last night due to injury, which is bummer... mainly because I'm a Ravens fan and it's a crummy way to end a career. I hope he comes back next year. My WRs are weak now... I have Brown, Evans, Benjamin, and LaFell... I need someone else consistent. Running backs are ok right now... someone had dropped Gurley at the beginning of the season and I'd picked him up back then, so I'm good there. I have Gurley, Ingram, Lewis, and Yeldon right now. My QBs are Ryan and Eli... of course I had Eli on the bench yesterday when he scored 38, and in the game last week when he got 6 points. :bummed: I'm trying to decide if I want to stash Romo... do you think he'll return in week 11? Be back to his old self?? I'm going to drop Smith and the 2nd D/ST that I had picked up for a bye week and look for a WR and maybe Romo... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2326042 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 15:35:25 +0000 AggieDaze 2326042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I'm so jealous of your 63-point win. At the moment, I'm up by 17 points but my opponent has Odell Beckham Jr and Jordan Matthews playing tonight. I have DeMarco Murray playing... so it's a toss up. </p> <p>Re: Karlos Williams, I dropped him Saturday to grab Travis Benjamin. I also dropped Jordan Cameron, but Delanie Walker got the same amount of points so I'm fine with that decision. </p> <p>Naturally, Jonathan Stewart had his first big game - 19 points - and was on my bench this weekend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2325574 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 10:54:00 +0000 MrsKoala 2325574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: Oucchhhhhh. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2325561 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 10:47:25 +0000 sslm 2325561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't been chiming in here but I have been totally screwed over with injuries! I've lost Tony Romo, Dez Bryant, Jamaal Charles. Acccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2325556 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 10:44:12 +0000 MrsKoala 2325556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: So glad you like the podcast!! I enjoy listening to it as well. So sad that Cameron finally had a good week and you didn't get to reap the benefits. That's the worst part about Fantasy Football. You can never predict when someone is going to get hot and you'll really never know who you should hold on to and who to drop! </p> <p>I'm still killing it with my team. Undefeated like the Patriots! My husband is possibly going to beat the other undefeated team this week so fingers crossed that will happen. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2325526 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 10:24:23 +0000 78h2o 2325526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AggieDaze: Ugh, that stinks! I don't know anything about Walker, sorry!</p> <p>My team did terribly this week - 63 whopping points! Somehow I still won, since I was playing the team with the worst record. She scored 62 points, so I'm sure she's annoyed!!! I know I would be! So now I am 4-2, which is okay.</p> <p>I need Big Ben to come back, as Antonio Brown seriously sucks without him... 2 pts? Come on! </p> <p>I have a tough match up this week (1st place team), but fortunately my players have decent match ups, so there's a chance! </p> <p>@MrsKoala: Of course, I no longer have Cameron and he finally had a good game! I was going to claim him if he had a good week, but someone snatched him up last week. Oh well! BTW, I wanted to thank you for the podcast recommendation on the other thread. I've been listening to it almost everyday, and it's made my commute more enjoyable! :) </p> <p>I picked up Karlos Williams again after he was dropped last week. He's in the concussion protocol right now and McCoy is back, so I dk if he's worth keeping or not? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2323105 Fri, 16 Oct 2015 09:17:10 +0000 AggieDaze 2323105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had another rough week! Tied (which in our league means the person with the most points on the bench, wins). With two on bye and two injured, I came up three points short :(</p> <p>What are everyone's thoughts on Delanie Walker? Trying to determine if I'll play him or Charles Clay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2315142 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 15:35:02 +0000 MrsKoala 2315142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AggieDaze: Eeeek! I can't believe he's not playing again. He must be really hurt. The Saints haven't been very good so hopefully that will mean lots of points for Bradford (I hate saying that because I can't stand the Eagles). </p> <p>@78h2o: @AggieDaze: I had Jordan Cameron for the last two years because he was so nice to look at. No shame. Didn't get him this year, though. In fact, one of the reasons that I always draft Julian Edelman is because I consider him my football boyfriend. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2315117 Fri, 09 Oct 2015 15:16:29 +0000 AggieDaze 2315117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I'm ashamed to admit that this is not the first year I've drafted Jordan Cameron simply because of his looks. It did pay off last time though ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2314404 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 22:40:38 +0000 78h2o 2314404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AggieDaze: bahaha! I can't tell you how many times I've looked at his mug and thought, "Damm, I wish you were as good on the field as you are to look at! 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2314379 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 22:07:53 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2314379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh! I benched Andre Johnson this week because he's sucked this season. And he has 20 points in the Colts game! :sad: the only redeeming thing is that I am a Colts fan and we're winning! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2314341 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 21:19:58 +0000 AggieDaze 2314341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: Luck is out! I couldn't believe it! Luckily I was prepared and picked up Sam Bradford (dropped Derek Carr for now since he's facing the Broncos -ouch - and then on bye) ... While the Eagles O line is an embarrassment, I'm hoping he can still generate a decent amount of points against the Saints. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2314339 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 21:17:54 +0000 AggieDaze 2314339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I dropped Jordan Cameron too! I needed a D for this week and he's on bye and isn't doing well anyway. He might still be available later if for some reason we want him, I figure! Last time I choose a tight end because of his looks, hahaha!</p> <p>I am also so annoyed with Mike Evans. I'm playing him this week, I think. But he really needs to get it together! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2312793 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 14:34:01 +0000 78h2o 2312793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BKCaribBaby: I dropped Jordan Cameron to pick up Richard Rodgers. I decided to keep Ebron over Cameron, since the Miami offense is a mess and he hadn't done much so far. Hopefully I don't regret it!</p> <p> @MrsKoala: That's awesome you are 4-0! Good luck this week!</p> <p>I am 3-1 this week thanks to injuries last week. My match up this week is pretty tough though, so I need a few miracles! </p> <p>I'm so annoyed with Mike Evans... he's burned me twice. I think I am going to start Benjamin or Hankerson over him, but can't decide which one. Is that crazy?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2312528 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 10:27:43 +0000 BKCaribBaby 2312528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@catlady: We are like Fantasy twins! I picked up Ebron last week as well after I got worried about Heath Miller. I just picked up Richard Rodgers from GB, so maybe he will work this week. I also had the Panthers last week and just picked up the Giants. </p> <p>I'm worried about DeMarco Murray, but we'll see. I have three QBs and I shouldn't (I'm keeping Tyrod so no one else can have him). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2312519 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 10:22:36 +0000 catlady 2312519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I managed to squeak out a win this week so I'm 3-1 now.</p> <p>@78h2o: I have Ebron too and was bummed when he got hurt. I have Julius Thomas stashed on my bench but he is still out this week so looks like I need to toss Ebron and find a new TE. </p> <p>@AggieDaze: I just picked up the Giants D for this week (I had the Panthers before). Hopefully they will do ok.</p> <p>@MrsKoala: That's awesome! Good luck this week against your husband. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2312490 Wed, 07 Oct 2015 09:59:44 +0000 MrsKoala 2312490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: Injuries suck!! :(</p> <p>@AggieDaze: Congrats on the win! Hopefully, it's the start of a streak for you. I'd be nervous about Luck playing this week, too. I'm still shocked that he didn't play last week! I hope his injury doesn't stick around for too long.</p> <p>I'm 4-0!! Kicking butt in my league. Of course, it doesn't hurt that I have the best Kicker, Defense, and Running Back in the league right now. This week is big for me, though. I play my husband so you know the pressure is on for me to remain undefeated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/fantasy-football-chat/page/3#post-2312150 Tue, 06 Oct 2015 20:44:32 +0000 AggieDaze 2312150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: Ouch!!</p> <p>How was everyone else's week?</p> <p>I finally won - thank goodness. Actually managed to score more points than the entire league this week; not saying much, but still :)</p> <p>I have to pick up a D this week as the Jets are on bye... thinking about the Giants. I'm also trying to decide if I want to hold on to Carr, or grab Mariota (just hit the waiver on Sunday). I have Luck, but am watching carefully to see if I'll play him on Thursday. </p> <p>Hope everyone else had a great weekend! </p>
