So you drafted 1st or 2nd and after taking Foster first you took Chris Johnson and on the turn MJD? First, both these guys lasted this long? Why wouldnt you take a WR at that point?

I was 3rd in a 10 man draft. Took Foster with my 1st pick. Johnson in the second and MJD when my pick came back around. I wasn't super high on and WR when MJD was available because I have the RB/WR flex and I can start all 3 RB's.

A guy offered me Cam Newton and Fred Jackson for Arian Foster and Jay Cutler

Fred Jackson getting up there in age and coming off injury...id stay with Foster and Jay, but tempting to say the least.

Because you can start all 3, hell yeah nice. I assumed you could only start 2 RBs. Solid team. And like Blunt Hair said, WR is deep. Solid team, my first draft is tomorrow night. I think Jay reunited with Marshall could be just as effective as Stafford to M. Tron this year.

I certainly hope so

I wouldnt have changed it, different lil different strategy keeps it fresh. TD to 3 or 4 point only for QBs when throwing the ball. Every person who scores should get 6 imo.

I dunno. For that I would think I was punishing something that was more impressive than a one yard run. We'll see how it goes this year, but I always thought it was BS when a single player beat you who didn't even rush for fifty yards.

Ok what source/website/magazine do you guys trust as a starting point to building your cheat sheet for your drafts? My draft is in a week and I need to start putting my thoughts on paper. I never take one source and just run with it, but I do usually try to find one that is pretty close to my thoughts and then make adjustments from there. I'm not drafting againt any of you guys so please share some of your thoughts.

I've used fftoday.com and fftoolbox.com some in the past and not the ones everyone else will use like ESPN/YAHOO/NFL.COM

My go to FF magazine for years has been Fantasy Football Index.

i make my own cheat sheet based on the results from the previous year. I pull the data from yahoo within my league so my scoring totals are accurate. Then i add in rookies, and i tweak the depth chart. then sort by team, add in bye weeks and a comment column. It's already done minus the depth of the players, which is fluid. comments i add based on the people i follow around the country via twitter. bleacher report had a great article a few days ago on the 30 'must follow' football personalities.

If you had to pick a redskins RB as a starter, who would you take?
(based on what we know now)

Right now you'd have to go with Royster. TH still sitting out, Helu nursing an achilles injury... but I'd probably avoid taking any of the Skins backs.

Since T. Davis, you should never draft a Shanahan back. They are picked up in free agency to fill in for bye weeks. Too inconsistent.
