Do not try and score on the powerplay. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth.

How could the autodraft possibly screw up that badly? Usually it wants to fill in every position before drafting the bench. Why would it wait on QB until the very last round and leave that spot open the whole time as it drafts backups (including backup kickers). What kind of wackiness did you put in your predraft settings?

Sidenote: both Henne and Gabbert started for my team that was 1.4 points from winning the championship last year.

I set it up to draft best available after the first 4 rounds assuming it would take a quarterback at some point, though I'm wondering if my dumb rear end forgot to save it. Either way, I'm happy with some of the building blocks and when I get home from vacation will be wheelin and dealin

"Best avail" isn't necessarily QBs, it generally is skill players the first 4 rounds. Position limits help to an extent, but the draft strategy thing is only marginally helpful in forcing it to not draft you kickers or def too early.

I'm a shameful owner who forgot about the draft. I set my list to take a QB in the first round and then best available after that which is why I now have Cam Newton and Matt Ryan. I'm more inclined to trade Newton.

I'm Breesus Christ and I know I would like to trade out a Cardinal or Dolphin to help with the bye weeks in any trade I make. I think I should make clear that, just because I have two first string QBs, this doesn't mean I'm going to give Newton away.

Here are the players I'd like to try to find a way to work into a trade:
Rashard Mendenhall
Mike Wallace
Andre Roberts
Brian Hartline

I'm not a football nut so please understand that I'm mostly going to be working off statistical projections I can find on the internet when I'm offered trades so please don't be offended if I have a basic disagreement about your favorite player.

I might be interested in either trading Alex Smith for a low tier RB or Brees for a higher tier RB + something if anyone is strong at RB and weak at QB.

Seriously, if you are weak at QB, Breesus Christ would like to trade you Cam Newton, who put 360 points on the board last season. I am focusing on upgrading just about everywhere except QB and kicker. :sigh:

Hah, last wedding like that I went to (I think it was LSU/Georgia), roughly 70-75% of the people were watching updates on their phone during the whole thing. You just don't schedule a fall wedding in the south on gameday, or if you do, don't get pissed when everyone runs to the reception hall and turns on the TV afterward.

I'm pretty sure looking through the waiver wire to fill in the spots that opened up when i put Gronk/Harvin on IR led to some of the saddest fantasy-related decisions possible. Mainly "Do I take Toby Gerhart in case Adrian Peterson's legs exlode or do I handcuff Geno Smith with Mark Sanchez to make sure I have a bye week QB?"

Hot Dog Heroes have Tuel and Henne for QBs. Clearly this needs to change. I'm also in need of a RB but QB is my first priority. I'm open to moving any of my WR (Cruz, Amendola, Rice, Moore, Cooper) for a QB. If you're interested, feel free to shoot me a trade offer

Definitely should have just held onto Cam for a couple weeks.
