The Shittiest Draft To Ever Win A FFL - Page 2

Direckshun · 12-24-2013, 07:38 AM

I believe I had it this year.

Won the league with this draft:

1. (4) Ray Rice (Bal - RB)
2. (17) Aaron Rodgers (GB - QB)
3. (24) Ryan Mathews (SD - RB)
4. (37) Antonio Brown (Pit - WR)
5. (44) Dez Bryant (Dal - WR) [keeper]
6. (57) Montee Ball (Den - RB)
7. (64) Kyle Rudolph (Min - TE)
8. (77) Andrew Luck (Ind - QB) [keeper]
9. (84) Giovani Bernard (Cin - RB)
10. (97) Justin Blackmon (Jax - WR)
11. (104) Shane Vereen (NE - RB)
12. (117) Houston (Hou - DEF)
13. (124) Vincent Brown (SD - WR)
14. (137) Alshon Jeffery (Chi - WR)
15. (144) Justin Tucker (Bal - K)

Ray Rice was a bust. Aaron Rodgers got injured. Ryan Mathews in the 3rd round was pathetic value -- he paid off in the playoffs but he's been horrendous up until then (I started Ben Tate, Andre Brown, and Mike ****ing James over him throughout the year).

My WR pickups were almost all homeruns: Brown, Bryant, Blackmon, and Jeffery were all golden gets (I picked up Keenan Allen early on, too).

My late round picks were almost all terrible. Andrew Luck was pretty much a bust down the stretch, and he was my ****ing keeper. I drafted Montee Ball in the 6th. Kyle Rudolph was one of 5 TEs I started this year, and they were all terrible. And Houston was atrocious this year.

My amazing WRs aside, I had next-to-no scoring. I was the 4th lowest scorer in the league, and limped into the playoffs at 8-6, but I beat the 1st place guy in round 1 and the 2nd place guy only put up 75 points against me in the finals.

Needless to say, there's a dozen dudes in Springfield who really, really hate my ass.

Luck is absolutely a determining factor in this stuff. Here is a list of key players I lost during the season:

Vick
Cutler
Gronk
Adrian Peterson - cost me the playoff win. I was leading the league until that happened. That was the game Jamaal Charles scored like 56 fantasy points against me.

Someone was telling me yesterday they make the playoff games each last two weeks, and then the average score wins. So, the Super Bowl actually is two weeks for them.

They only have an eight man league, but I thought that was interesting.

I think luck has a lot to do with it. But in both of my leagues this year, the top scoring team had the best record and won the title.
