I hate Power Rankings. I'm always at the arse end...why do I get the feeling that first season title will be my one and only?

You are closer now than on the last run around, In that first season you had a lot of guys who were a bit fluky in that season, and second season didn't go well at all, now you need to start looking for some young guys to build a solid future, while hopefully not completely writing off the next year.

Looks like you guys worked the expansion draft well, with the new teams basically in the middle.

Edit- bang on in fact.

no idea what those power rankings are supposed to be telling me. Assume the high score means my team is shark.

Going to an NFL Fan Night next Tuesday, which will have.....

New York Giants Pro Bowl wide receiver Victor Cruz. He will be joined by Indianapolis Colts tight end Dwayne Allen; Jacksonville Jaguars running back Denard Robinson; Los Angeles Rams tight end Lance Kendricks; Cincinnati Bengals defensive linemen Domata Peko and Carlos Dunlap; and Washington Redskins safety DeAngelo Hall and defensive lineman Chris Baker.

Any questions anyone wants me to ask any of them?

It is based off an average of the Top 20 players on each squad using ADP (Average Draft Position) over 12 drafts in June, so is really just a group opinion of how good each player is in Dynasty.

Sounds like a pretty cool event, how many games are in London this year?  Could ask how Victor is doing, seems permanently injured.

yeah. I'm probably not going to antagonise a 100 kg, steroid jacked*, NFL player for the forum's entertainment.

started watching All or Nothing last night - seems really good. A bit like Hard Knocks but across a whole season. Great to have mics on the players and coaches during games.

Funniest moment in episode 1 is the first game of last season, trying to run down the clock against the Saints. Camera is on Palmer who throws it to David Johnson, and starts signalling for him to get on the ground while Johnson just burns everyone around him and runs it in from about 50 yards. 

It is on Amazon and well worth a watch.

So I was looking at my team this morning and realised that I have aging 3 QBs who are all much of a muchness - Palmer, Rivers and Romo. 

Palmer is obviously the pick of the three, but I will am willing to listen to offers for all of them.

OMG There is NFL News...


1) Tom Brady had his appeal denied, and has decided he won't appeal to supreme court...case over he WILL be suspended for the first 4 games for 2016 (This was the likely outcome eventually, as the only thing the courts could legally rule on is whether Goodell was within his authority to hand out the penalty or not, which he was as the CBA gives him complete right over discipline, look to this to be one of the changes in the next contract talks, also NFPLA want some drug changes (weed), so they may end up having to give something up to get all the changes they want)

2) Karlos Williams suspended for 4 games for Substances of Abuse. (Oh he is also 25lbs overweight which is obscene...add Jonathan Williams with a DUI and could be looking at Mike Gillisle as the back-up in Buffalo in early season)

3) Justin Tucker signed a new 4yr deal with the Ravens

That's the highlights, will be more news starting from next week as the teams return for Training camps...

Hey all, thought it was about time I signed up now that the news-flow and preseason are fast approaching :)

Quite happy about Foster, now just need Fitzpatrick to swallow his pride and come grovelling back to the Jets!

For people to recognise you Deeks, a more accurate Forum name description might be in order.  I suggest Jewy MacJewerson.

What's wrong with Chris Johnson...going to run for 2000yds this year...cause David Johnson will go back to catching passes and Palmer's probably going to get hurt ;-)

Bugger, that's worrying.....but from a fantasy perspective, thank god he went to the Cowboys - they'll play anyone no matter what they've done if he's good enough.

Possibly the most impressive thing about that is managing to avoid any crap stars.  Must have been very consistent even in the weeks you haven't had a huge score.

Congratulations to Paddy as he gets one of his players off suspension, it has been announced that Josh Gordon is reinstated to the NFL, but has been banned for the first 4 games...but can interact with the team right through...

Though it could be painful for those of us with shares of the Browns Receivers...

Corey Coleman & Andrew Hawkins (USOS)

Ricardo Louis (DEEK)

Rashard Higgins (GAUL)

Jordan Payton (SWRL)

Gary Barnidge (LCAL)

Though at least we get 4 games to see what the roles look at before then...

Also Aldon Smith is one of the dumbest men alive...

Currently serving s suspension for Substances of Abuse, and a video was posted to Periscope (On an account that he has previously used), that shows a man smoking a joint, then a woman saying "Stop videoing" and a reply saying, "No one will know it's me, it's not like I put Aldon Smith on it" and then the video cuts off...

He has come out on twitter to deny it is him, and the world responded....

http://www.12up.com/posts/3513439-aldon-smith-deni...

In general it seems no one at all believes him.

Also on the note of Drug Suspensions, I am putting Le'Veon Bell on the trade block, send me some offers and I'll let you know what I think.

And Rammtallica, no I don't want Adrian Peterson...I've owned him twice previously, once won the league when he was returning from ACL (Drafted Charles that season too...), and the second time was 2014, taken #1 overall...ugh...

Fair enough.  Straight up for Zack Zenner then?  The Z-man is going to tear things up this year.  :p

If anyone is interested in either Adrian Peterson or Jamaal Charles - flick some offers my way as well.  They are a bit on the older side, but if they don't get injured (or suspended) should still be top RB's for at least the next year or two.

Is Zenner even going to make the Roster?

Abdullah & Riddick are locks, and then Ridley? Zenner? or is it someone else as the 3rd RB? Dwayne Washington (The Rookie?)

Jono I'm interested in trading for Bell, given the suspension news, he's on track to become the next Gordon :P.  How about straight up for Ingram?
