I am in the FFPC Main Event "Joe Montana" League #10.
I drafted from the 8th spot against some very top notch compettion.
Here are a few of the other owners in this league and their resume.
Spot /Owner/Team Name/Resume'
#3 Mathew Davis-Soulchildren (FFPC Championship round in 2008)
#4 Lee and Alicia Piccoli-Eat 'Em and Smile (Last years $1250 league winner)
#7 Matt Bayley-One Got Through (09/11)- (Top NFFC player)
#9 Jason Tapley-The Bada Bingers (aka Bragging Rights, Ranked 172 in the World in 2008)
#11 Errol Kelly-Masters of the Gridiron (Finished 17th in consolation round of FFPC in 2008)
#12 Wade Golab and Robert Smolarczyk-Chicago Justice (Owners of American Fantasy Footbal League contest)
And I have yet to mention John Reuss (Raiders) and Michael Cobb (Menobrown); two well respected FFPC players from 2008.
Remember always research your opponents!!!
Boy it does not get much tougher than this.
Final Roster
Pos Name Bye Team Pick
QB Ben Roethlisberger 8 PIT R11 P8 Comment: I get 20.45 points from Thurs
QB Trent Edwards 9 BUF R13 P8 Comment: Complimentary schedule with Roeth
QB Shaun Hill 6 SF R18 P5 Comment: Quantity over quality at QB a consious choice
RB Steven Jackson 9 STL R1 P8 Comment: Either SJAX or M Turner with this one
RB Chris Johnson 7 TEN R2 P5 Comment: To get with the 17th pick was value
RB Thomas Jones 9 NYJ R5 P8 Comment: With Johson a non factor vs PIT, I needed RB help for Week 1. TJ was best RB on the board in the 5th
RB Larry Johnson 8 KC R6 P5 Comment: I am hopig for good things. If KC can ever get a lead in a game
RB Tim Hightower 4 ARI R10 P5 Comment: If Beanie Wells does not stay healhty (what are the chances) then I have my fifth starting RB.
RB Earnest Graham 8 TB R14 P5 Comment: 14h round-a good enough place on a RBBC sleeper RB.
WR Dwayne Bowe 8 KC R3 P8 Comment: KC will be behind quite alot this year!
WR Wes Welker 8 NE R4 P5 Comment: Maybe too high if this mysterious illness hurts his starts. Week 1 is questionable so does not look good already.
WR Jerricho Cotchery 9 NYJ R7 P8 Comment: I wanted him in the 6th but took a chance and got him in the 7th. I expect big things now that he is #1.
WR Laveranues Coles 8 CIN R9 P8 Comment: Debated Coles or Lendale White at RB as handcuff to C Johnson and a good RB in general. I hope I do not regret this decison too.
WR Nate Burleson 7 SEA R12 P5 Comment: Sleeper
WR Jeremy Maclin 4 PHI R15 P8 Comment: Upside is huge especially with K Curtis still recovering from injuries.
WR Troy Williamson 7 JAX R17 P8 Comment: Looks to be the JAX WR#2. If Garrard can return to 2007 form. He is a hit.
TE Visanthe Shiancoe 9 MIN R8 P5 Comment: Could have had S Moss here too. I have some regrets now that I did not shore up WRs. But Shiancoe could be Top 5 WR
TE Todd Heap 7 BAL R16 P5 Comment: Another bounce back bet if he can stay healthy. It looks as if LJ Smith will not be a threat
K Nick Folk 6 DAL R19 P8 Comment: Best Kicker left in a dome and with bye week other than who I wanted to pick next at defense
DEF Arizona Cardinals 4 ARI R20 P5 Comment: Great Fantasy Playoff Schedule in weeks 14-16 with SF, DET and STL. Does it get any easier?
