grab a great qb and te early and then build around them.
bat has the best names but no upside. bat only drafted names that are known. that hurts sometimes because you need to pick up unknowns with potential because you never know who blows up.
jreck team has upside.
i think QBs are more crucial than ever, they're the new RB

qb always produce the most points.
the thing is though there's a lot of qb's that'll put up good numbers.
running backs not so much.
after the top tier , there's a big dropoff due to teams running more than 1 back.

I think rb's are important past the first 5.
I mean if you have a back that scores a lot of td's but doesn't run for a million yards you are ok.
I think it's good to focus on a guy they give the ball to at the 1 or 2 yard line if you can't get a premier back.
I think the problem with picking proven vets is the chance of injuries are so much greater, so you have to be good at picking up and comers.
For my receivers, I picked two druggies for my back ups that put up big numbers in case the big 2 go down.
The druggies are suspended the first couple of games so there is little chance of them being hurt but it will be touch and go worrying about some guys.
I think what happens in these leagues, is everyone wants to pick the perfect up and comer, I see it a lot in this league.
You could hit gold, or you could be left shaking your head.
Opening games seem so far away.
I miss football season man.
For anyone, and any team, one injury could be catastrophic.

thats the thing jreck
picking 'proven' RBs is one of the riskiest things... they age SO fast
LT was a surefire number one pick, but for like 2 years... and priest holmes? and LJ?
these guys aged so fast... you never know who will deliver
chris johnson and adrian peterson wont be sure things a year or two from now...
the turnover is so quick
but for QBs, aside from injuries, they can sit near the top of fantasy players much more consistently with much greater longevity IMO

QB's are safer because the league protects them to an extent.
For me
I just don't want Aaron Rodgers to go down. I'd have to start Kyle Orton if he did, who is a pretty safe qb overall but his numbers aren't massive.
Anybody's qb goes down you are gonna see some scrambling.
If I didnt' get Rodgers, I would have taken Romo, good stats, very few interceptions....

I'm always great at choosing WR's .... one year in a draft ... i got Reggie Wayne(my sleeper), Andre Johnson(a no name until this year), Brandon Marshall (was his 1st year, and it was only a rumor he Might be a starter, i took a chance) and Wes Welker on his first year going to the Patriots .... i absolutely killed everyone in that league because all these receivers had probowl years .... but this year
Jennings (solid)
Dez Bryant
Donnie Avery
Jacoby Jones
Deion Branch
Earl Bennett
..... i'm trying to spring a trade

he holds the ball way too long and takes too many shots
im holding tight to sanchez, i think, THINK he'll hit his stride this year
