I made some weird picks. But, the Entire Philly Backfield/the entire Buffalo Backfield/Peyton/Aglohor/trio of TEs/Kenny Britt are gonna rule this league.

Is it just me or is this a particularly brutal preseason shaping up?

Why the gently caress did I draft Blake Bortles.

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
Jameis, Stafford, Mallett.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you: my running backs:

pre:
Foster, Arian HOU RB (O) 	 	256.50 	9
Gray, Jonas FA* RB 	 	 	72.40 	-
Gurley, Todd STL RB (O) 	 	 - 	6
Herron, Dan IND RB (I) 	 	 	66.90 	10
Hyde, Carlos SFO RB 	 	 	69.10 	10
Richardson, Trent FA* RB 	 	105.30 	-
Going into week 1, I've got Carlos Hyde running against the Vikings defense. And that's ALL. I'm going to take a 0 for the second RB slot.

I knew T-Rich was a very late round flier. But I really didn't think Jonas Gray was going to be out of a job. What the gently caress is happening with Dan Herron? The colts injured/waived him with a sprained shoulder? Todd Gurley was an unintentional autodraft due to my not understanding the MFL interface. And of course, Arian Foster will be out for anything from 4 to maybe more than 6 weeks, who knows. Who knows with Gurley, either.

I'm completely hosed and the season hasn't even started yet. :negative:

I just want to point out I got second-place points this week, despite being the only team that got a 0 in one of my best-man slots (three of my RBs are free agents now :negative: and the other two are still injured).

I'm Pacman Jones!
Pretty happy to be in third after a week, but boy do I have like zero WR depth. Hilton going down is going to hurt a bit, but if any of my main starters miss time I'm pretty much done there. Looking forward to watching my team slowly unwind and collapse.

I took zeroes in two categories (RB and TE) this week due to a lack of players who can still play football. Football is a stupid game.

To be fair, my team is utter poo poo outside of defenses too.

I'm down to one running back still playing football. How did I still get third this week?

Dan "Boom" Herron is back on a team! I actually scored running back points for two players this week! Herron and Gurley combined for 8 points. Wheeee!

Ray Finkle is the only team with fewer non-starter points this week than me (and they don't even own a defense, LOL). My team is just sooo gutted. I don't know how I'm hanging in 4th.

So that was fun, huh?

I'm pretty happy placing fifth, given that my team was littered with guys like Flacco (IR), Kaepernick (IR), Manziel (benched half the season+), Foster (IR), Jonas Grey (didn't have a job most of the season), Gurley (sat out the beginning of the season and then missed games and then also sucked in some games), Dan Herron (didn't work almost all year), Carlos Hyde (IR), Trent Richardson (LOL), Keenan Allen (IR), and Rod Streater (LOL).

I think the only reasons I did as well as I did, were Odell Beckham Jr., two high-scoring defenses (Panthers and Eagles), two great tight ends (Gates and Walker), Anquan Boldin being surprisingly reliable, and Alex Smith learning how to throw touchdowns.

I would like to do this again next year! But maybe at the end of the preseason, instead of before it?

I wouldn't mind doing more of these. I like doing them super early since it's fun to see what drafting then is like, but doing a more "serious" one closer to preseason would also be great.

I'm down. I learned a lot about MFL strategy as the two we did played out.
