Add me to the Peyton Hillis club.

I was also all over Titus Young. Hopefully my patience is about to be rewarded.

Where do I begin.
Main took A Hernandez in 3rd round and figured Fnley would have that great year. Fnley in my 12 teamer as well so I debate Paulsen or Fasano at TE
DHB in Oak in both prime and main
To me my biggest regret was jumping in 4th round in main who I thought would be a top 6-8 receiver T Smith

Hasn't panned out: Garcon/Mathews - Easily own these 2 the most of any player other than RG3

Missed the Boat: A.Peterson/T.Richardson/F.Gore/AJ.Green/T.Gonzalez

Two guys I thought would do well and busted were Ryan Williams and Jacquizz Rodgers. I bought into the hype on both. Bad calls.

I wish I had been more aggressive with Adrian Peterson. I got him in on league but viewing him as anything other than a first-round pick proved to be a big mistake.

I'm also a huge Ben Roethlisberger fan but wasn't as aggressive with him as I should've been even though I love his WRs and Miller at TE. For those who held off on QBs and grabbed Ben later well done.

Yeah I didn't see this coming either. He looked like he was in serious decline last season.

Agree on Gore. And the Jacobs signing and the James drafting, and maybe even the Manningham and Moss signings, just seemed to strengthen the case against him. Oops. :oops:

That would pretty much be my missed the boat list as well. I have TRich once and Gonzo once but pretty much ignored the other guys. Not good... :shock:

I have AJ Green on my Terminator team, but pretty much ignored him everywhere else due to "someone better" always being available (B.Marshall, R.White, etc.....and they too have been good).

My biggest problem with AJ Green was I just don't get what defensive coordinators are thinking. Don't get me wrong, AJ Green is a SPECIAL TALENT, but if I am playing the Bengals, I would TRIPLE TEAM this guy on every play. On the other side, you have a carousel of WR's who couldn't start on many other teams, and a solid, but not spectacular TE in J.Gresham.

I just figured that teams would figure out to beat the Bengals, you stop #18.

I was wrong. :(

I agree Billy.

AJ had 111 targets last year as comapered to 175 for Roddy. I assumed Roddy's would drop and Green's would go up but wow did I miss the boat. I wonder if he will keep his current pace without having a real receiving threat on the other side. I'm guessing he will but it just seems like they could double him up and shut him down. It's been working on Calvin and Fitz this year.
