Boards Dynasty League

CoachTO

Have to say Im happy with my team good balance across the board lack depth at RB but im sure plenty of backs will fall apart during the season and their backups start and I swoop in and grab them.

And BBR I know had to add Pollard for the locker room atmosphere

UnitedIrishman

Right here's my lineup:

QB -
Philip Rivers
Josh Freeman

At least they're two starters and Rivers puts up some big scores.

RB -
Marshawn Lynch
Michael Turner
Arian Foster
Isaac Redman
Bernard Scott
Benjarvus Green Ellis
Mike Tolbert

Happy with those RB's. Willing to offload 1 or 2 for some decent defensive players if they're going.

WR -
Steve Smith
Roddy White
Robert Meachem
Mario Manningham
Nate Burleson
Santonio Holmes
Sidney Rice

Decent.

TE -
Brent Celek
Tony Gonzalez

Need a TE.

LB -
Erin Henderson
Daryl Smith
Perry Riley

DE -
Dwight Freeney
John Abraham

Need waaay more depth here.

DB -
Kyle Arrington
Darian Stewart

And here.

K -
Mason Crosby
+ 3 others

Need to hit the waiver wire.

So basically I'm looking to pickup some DB's/DE's, and a TE.

If you've any guys you're looking to trade, the Trading Block on the ESPN is a very handy way to do it.
Couple of teams have put guys up there already and good way to keep track of this stuff

You can put up who you're willing to trade, what positions you're looking for, mark if you're interested (or not) in other guys trade blocks.

Kinda surprised at $2 for Akers. Figured I had a good shot with $0 and 3rd in priority.

That was me. I figured others would go for him, and I thought someone might bid $1 so I wanted to be safe with $2.

Masked Man

I actually was thinking of bidding $1 for him just in case you or Barbarians tried to pick him up for nothing. I ended up with Hartley which I'm pretty happy about.

I had the same thinking and also bid $2, you must have been higher up in the waiver order. Damn

Well feck you anyway J :mad:

I was sure most people who would go for him would bid $0 so I was 95% sure that a $1 bid and second in waiver priority would get him for me!

Back to the wire I go

Masked Man

Why didn't you guys put a bid on Hartley?

JaMarcus Hustle

Never thought I'd see so much fuss over a FF kicker! :pac:

Is it $100 for the entire season? Does leftover cash carryover to next season?

What's the craic with this? Waiver priority is a bidding-type process, yeah?

You put in a bid ($0 to $100) for any free agent you want and if you're the highest bid you win that player. Ties are broken by the higher waiver priority. Whatever your winning bid is subtracted from your season allowance of $100. Once it runs out you are left with $0 bids and hope no-one else bids for that player

Needed a RB, one of the other teams needed a TE, so I offered Jermaine Gresham for BenJarvus Green Ellis. A very fair deal.

I was then countered, he offered Green Ellis and Bernard Scott for David Wilson and Kyle Rudolph. In a dynasty league. Seriously, why bother? :rolleyes:

Right well to be fair my counter was more intended to try get you to propose a better deal. And I do think Rudolph is going to have a better season than Gresham so would probably prefer Rudolph.

Also, relax, it's my first attempt at one of these things. I'm still figuring out ****.

JaMarcus Hustle

Sorry, no offence intended. I get easily wound up when it comes to trading! I had Wilson on my untouchable list but to be fair, I shouldn't expect you to check that before countering so my bad for complaining. (I have high hopes for Wilson - best RB in the league in 2 years time, i.e. hands off! )

Ah right, well I probably should've checked that list in fairness! Much ado about nothing. Any way you'd let Rudolph go?

Probably not, with Shiancoe gone he's going to be a big part of Minnesota's offence, especially for a young QB with a tendency for short-medium range throws. I'd want someone better than Green Ellis to let Rudolph go to be honest!

I've got this other kid, Bernard Scott... :P

Ah yeah was thinking that to be fair. Think Rudolph is going to be a massive player this year.

Think I'll just be belting ahead with this team for the forseeable future anyways.

I see a trade I proposed was accepted when do the players actually move?

BigBadRob83

Looking to trade for a starting WR
Also a young backup TE

Open to offers on most of my team
Have some very good defenders on my bench if anyone needs help there

Masked Man

There is going to be some huge scores in this league. Think I coulda gotten ~180 if I started my best players.

RG3 is gonna be a steal.

BigBadRob83

Didn't realise that punt and kickoff returns were included in scoring, was wondering how Randall Cobb scored so high, on my bench of course.
Left a lot of high-scorers on bench. Gonna be interesting challenge to set lineups with such big rosters and variety of players

UCD AFC

Sickened, lost by 2.5 - AJ Green let me down...

Never mind, thought I was in a different thread!

BigBadRob83

Aaahhh!

Third-highest scoring team of the week, and of course I run into the no.1 team!

How's everyone finding the league so far? Definitely underrated defensive players in the draft however some good news for me is that Alex Green will most likely become GB's starting RB.
