yeah, yeah, yeah...it's july. but i like to do a few money leagues early to try and capitalize on what i view as players at a lower adp then they will be come august/sept. this one is a 10 team, .5 ppr with a $15 dollar buy-in. i drew the 6th slot
QB: Matt Ryan RB: Marshawn Lynch WR: Odell Beckam, Jr. TE: Martellus Bennett Flex: Jeremy Hill Flex: Deandre Hopkins Flex: Julian Edelman D/ST: Dolphins K: Hauschka
Bench: Giovani Bernard, LaGarrette Blount, Anquan Boldin, Torrey Smith, Ryan Tannenhill, Delanie Walker, Reggie Bush
i am very, very happy. i feel from the third round on i got excellent value with hill, hopkins, and edelman. even getting gio and blount on my bench feels great. it was one of those where the last players in my que did not get sniped before i picked. noice. what say you?

Even for ten teams, that looks great. I love your backup tight end pick! Having Hill and Bernard is going to be good.
I'm confused why you drafted Tannehill though. I don't see a universe where he's a top 20 fantasy QB.

I don't see a universe where he's a top 20 fantasy QB. c'mon now. you must not have watched him a lot. i watched every game he played. he has progressed nicely. he still doesn't have the deep ball accuracy and his pocket awareness is still bad at times (gotten a bit better though) but he has transformed himself everywhere else. the dolphins know what they got and that's why wallace is expendable. he's being surrounded by wrs that suit his mid-range arm. he'll never be a great qb but he can attain ryan, romo, flacco heights. and that's good enough. it's all us dolphins fans can ask for. he already cracked the top 10 in fantasy. no reason he can't fall into the 8-10 range again. plus, the guy with kaep as his qb might be interested in a trade

not to mention albert being on the line will go a long way and cameron (health permitting) is excellent for his range as well. plus, that defense should get the ball for the offense plenty

Very strong overall team IMO. Only questionable player on your team is LaGarratte Blount as I have no idea in what capacity he will be used this season. Also I didn't know you were a Dolphins fan! I am not alone I assumed Packers fan do to the "Pack"dog..

I am not alone I assumed Packers fan do to the "Pack"dog.. i am a packer fan. from wisco and lived in sfla for 25 years so them mullet grew on me. even had season tickets for a while. but nothing will ever trump gb. one of my first memories is visiting lambeau. and i love blount where he is going right now. i know the pats are wishy washy in how they use their backs but for some reason they love blount. he could be a td machine if you look into his patriot performances. worth a shot

Picking from the 6th spot you have put together a good looking team, I like your starters and your bench gives you depth. Nice Job!

Sorry, guess I'm the only one that thinks it's a sorry team. So you picked Lynch 6th overall, OBJ 15th, and then..... At 26th overall, I'm at a total loss. If it's Bernard or Hill, neither of them are feature backs, at least not ATM. Boldin is ancient, and new addition of Torrey, we'll see, with the last o-line guy retired. This is a team in deep trouble, I'm steering clear of it. I do like Delanie Walker. Seems like you got 2 mid-range starting TEs. I would not be surprised to see you eventually flexing them in favor or your other crew. Deandre Hopkins, QB questions. And Pats WR also worrisome cuz of the Brady situation. Sorry, but if this was a 12-team league, slightly more palatable. As a 10, it looks pretty bleak to me. But seems I'm the only one. I might have a spot for you at BC7 if you're game. I'll know for sure by Monday. fantasy.nfl.com/league/338469

I'll know for sure by Monday. fantasy.nfl.com/league/338469 appreciate the response. someone's gotta point out the potential warts. good to have the rose-colored glasses swiped off. i don't have much worry about hill (he was the 26th) myself. hue jackson's presence is far more appealing to me than any concern from gio. hill is exactly what he likes and the bengals have correctly pegged gio as a third down back. hopefully it doesn't go that bad but it could as every thing you said is valid. and that was without mentioning lynch's age or odj only doing it for one year as for that other league i could be interested. i was apprehensive about joining that other one but since i did i could join this one. i was hesitant to start playing on another site outside espn. just gets to be too much with the 10 teams i have there and my weekly stuff. but since i joined an nfl one already i could prolly fit another one there. it takes but minutes to check it and i will be there already

I'll know for sure by Monday. fantasy.nfl.com/league/338469 I was thinking the same thing, but Odell and Lynch are a really good 1-2. Edelman and the two Bengal runningbacks are all okay that high. I'm guessing he drafted Ryan and Bennett too high.
