Wayne Wayne- I have you, Jim W and my team at the top. Of course I'm using my projections so there's built in bias toward my team (objectively I think I have a chance, but not a great team); so unbiased would be the two of you.

Anyone should like your team given how you stole a bunch of quality RBs late.

Who's your competition? [/QUOTE]Hopefully everyone in the draft has their team in their top 3, but at this early stage of the preseson it's amazing how 2 people will look at the same thing and see very different results. I don't have any of the same 3.

Yes, drafting 2 qb with the same bye week is a headshaker as well. Rhodes will provide serviceable (if not very servicable) numbers this year. U of all people should know that. With my DC startegy, that's all I need. When addai breaks down (like he began to show last year) or when he loses GL carries, you'll be wishing u had rhodes. One of THE top backups this year.

With the misses by u and billy (and others), I shouldn't have any problem making money again this year. miss(ES)?

C'mon man, I told you my plan, and couldn't get it done.

Remember last year in the Main when you waited and waited on a QB and ended up with Schaub and Campbell as your starters because you THOUGHT you would get Rivers???...... same thing here.

You had a plan you thought you could execute, it didn't work out the way you planned, and you got burnt.

Whether it screws me or not remains to be seen.

I kind of like Billy's team and Bob's team. But I tend to look more towards depth in a DC than starting lineup. When I see teams with 7-8 backups and non starters I have a hard time imagining them being able to compete in this format.

Billy - u are talking about a DC league. U can't make any changes after draft day. Having only 2 starting qb's with the same bye week is a miss. If u walked out of the draft room in vegas this august with only 2 starting qb's with the same bye week, are u telling me it wouldn't be a miss? You likely cost yourself 15-20 pts. Hopefully that doesn't cost u any money.

That is far worse than you having McNabb, who's good for 2 or more missed games and 20 TD total or Jackson,who is coming off a stellar year of 1900 yards passing and 12 total TDs.

Plug those numbers into your Snakecomp and re-calculate.

1) the LIFETIME NFFC leader walks out of a DC draft room with his starting QB's on the same bye week

2) a FF WEBSITE OWNER walks out of a DC draft room with 3 kickers all on the same bye week and one kicker not playing

that stuff is Fantasy Football 101

It is simple math, in the DC FORMAT, who is scoring more points...

A) Donovan McNabb, Tavaris Jackson, Gus Frerotte

B) Ben Roethlisberger, Charlie Batch, Vince Young, Kevin Kolb

The 18 points (just a guess) that you or anyone will score more in Week 6 can EASILY be made up in the other 15 weeks.

Having Alex Smith and Tavaris Jackson for example is NOT a better combo than a top 5 QB and a backup, even when they have the same bye week.

The funny thing here Snake is the fact that while I MAY/LIKELY get a zero in Week 6, you more than likely will be playing with ONE QB (maybe a zero on Minny's bye week?) almost definitely for some portion of the season.
