    So every year I usually draft one dolphin to be on my team, and this year I'm torn between Bush and Marshall. I'm hesitant about Marshall, because he only had three TD's last year which didn't help his point totals. However he could be a new focal point of this offense, but so could bush. Thoughts?

    Bush could be a PPR stud but if it's not PPR the safer bet is Marshall imo. I've seen him go anywhere from the 4th-7th rounds.

    Im pretty high on reggie. I think he really is putting in the work hes need to put in for a long time and by doing so is going to have a very big season. In a PPR format I can easily see 1000-1100 rushing yards and another 50-60 catches. That makes him a major steal past pick 35-40 or so because those stats are only a couple hundred rush yards under Rice and McCoy who are considered top 5 backs in PPR format. Im doing a draft in half an hour and I only HOPE people are sleeping on him the way his average draft position indicated (around pick 70). I will overdraft based on the fact Daniel Thomas poses no threat to him where as Marshall has good players around him, particularly Bess but hartline and Fasano as well will be good for 45-50 catches at least

    I really like Brandon Marshall in fantasy leagues. He's a guy that ideally he is my WR2, but I am comfortable with him being the WR1. I'd probably take Wayne over Marshall honestly, but I could understand going the other way around. In PPR, Wayne and Marshall are both beasts.

    How many points do your PPR leagues award receptions? Mine is only half a point per reception.

    I took Marshall over Wayne b/c I honestly feel he's catching 100+ passes, 1250 yards, and 10 TDs (he's basically our only legit redzone threat at WR/TE). It'll be nice once Gates and his 40 inch vertical is able to contribute.


    I nabbed Dez as my #1 WR b/c I have a feeling he's going to be a beast this year with Romo back and no Roy Williams. 85 catches, 1200 yards, 10+ TDs..... plus an extra 300 return yards.
    He & Romo seem to have some nice chemistry going on, and I could see him surpassing Miles Austin as Tony's go-to guy WR. It's possible he might eat into some of Witten's production.


    And with the Rams getting Avery back to help stretch the field (along with signing Sims Walker), I'm thinking Amendola tears it up underneath with more opportunities for YAC than he had last year. Plus he's returning kicks & punts, so he could be a monster in a PPR league that includes return yards. :king:



    Or...... I might just be having fun talkin out my arse since this is my first FF go around. lol.

    One year I did as many as four teams, but most years I just do one. I would consider two teams at most nowadays.

    i usually have around 15 teams each year with only 1 beeing the real important one that we run for 15 years now, i usually do snake draft but this year 70% of my teams are from an auction draft, can only recommend you guys do a auction at ESPN, its a lot of fun but takes around 2 hours, tomorrow will be my draft and i pick 2nd overall, have AP all peniciled in, was goin for foster, but his latest hammy issue scared me away, i´m riding all day all year !!!

    i will really overpay for marshall at either 19 or 22 dont know yet but since my buddy is picking 1st i probably have to take him at 19 which is totally ok with me since i expect him to have a big year
