I'm not going to mention the owner's name, nor what draft slot he had, but here were his first 6 picks (and his last) in the Friday night DC Express:

1 Peyton Manning QB
2 Aaron Rodgers QB
3 Andrew Luck QB
4 Matthew Stafford QB
5 Nick Foles QB
6 Cam Newton QB
35 Matt Flynn QB (took him as insurance to Rodgers injury)

He has a total of 7 qb on his roster and a total of only 6 wr. Don't think i've ever seen that happen.

Of course, this caused mass chaos at the QB position. Most teams have very little quality QB depth. One team left with RG3 and Pryor (???) as his only qb's.

Another team drafted 9 TE. don't think i've ever seen that either

Lastly one team has 18 wr.

wow I got ribbed on the board for going first 2 .

is there a "stacked team" that came out of this? two (or more) decent qbs w/ a more than usual amount of high quality rbs/wrs/tes?

Looks fishy, like they're throwing it to another player. I would definitely like to know the name and have Greg or Tom talk with him about his "strategy".

I was in one of the first DCExpress' this year and a similar strategy was applied. I don't know if it's the same player, but I noticed the same player was in your draft and mine. It forces your hand to take a QB early or earlier than you wanted, but as long as you get a viable QB1, it ruins his strategy versus you.

I have thought the same, without calling it out.

I was in the draft. It was a crazy draft but I didn't get the hint of collusion I took it as a strategy that the owner believes in. We all thi k his team will be a bottom feeder but he did create conversation and a run on qbs. Some good players dropped imo because of the q.b. run. You just see what happening and you adjust during the draft. Just my opinion

i havent looked that closely. early july "stacked" team might not mean much come Sept

i only have 3 qb's rostered, and i jumped all 3 of them:
Rivers
Tanehill
Palmer

i only have 3 te's rostered
Rudolph
Walker
Eifert (in the 21st i believe)

i didn't getthe feel for that. seems like a newer player that tried a crazy strategy. the owner that ended up with only RG3 and Pryor was on auto all draft

I grabbed Russell wilson and big Ben sitting at an end of draft order because I didn't think a viable backup would make it back. Wasnt my plan to have to do that. But its a game of adjustments right?
