C3FF Week One Recap

/

 

***CORRECTED VERSION

Week One has come and gone, along with several veterans' seasons, as always does happen in the first week of play. The biggest-name injury is likely WR Keenan Allen of the San Diego Chargers...and btw, thank you, BortleMilk Biscuits, for declining my extremely fair trade offer before week one of me sending him Latavius Murray for Allen!! ;)

First off, my APOLOGIES for the scoring error! League Muhammed was actually a simple matter where passing yards was erroneously set to 10 yards passing per point whereas the rules going in were always 25 yards passing per point. The good news is that it affects every team's QBs equally. The bad/good news is that one former winner now lost. Last game in the left column in the screenshot of League Muhammed, below, after corrections were made. It also changed the overall 48-team superleague's high scorer.

Secondly, KUDOS to team Uplay2win ThaGame, who is MOI....yep, Yours Truly had the highest Week One fantasy point total this week after all, with 162 FP. I was the only team to crack 160 this week. I had to say I wondered why Matt Stafford outscored Drew Brees, so I checked into the individual scoring and quickly saw the reason for it. 

Below, you'll see screenshots for the league scoreboards for each of the four leagues:

MINTER:

UPlay2win ThaGame topped scoring this week at 162 FP

 

MILLS:

Hog Mollie Heroes topped scoring this week at 159.5 FP

 

RUCKER:

Carruth Carruth Is On Fire topped scoring this week at 154 FP

 

MUHAMMED:

Mike after dinner minter led scoring this week at 156.5

 

UPlay2Win ThaGame's Lineup:

As you can see, I had strength everywhere -- even from the bench! Had I simply started Willie Snead instead of Michael Crabtree, I'd have had 175.5, but as it is I'm already starting two pairs of guys from the same team....Hopkins/Miller and Murray/Crabtree. I didn't want to add Brees/Snead, but it looks like I'll have to put Snead in that WR2 category, depending upon match-ups.

Brees led with 37 FP, then I had help from a ball-hawking TD-scoring Minnesota Vikings D/ST with 25 FP. All my non-kickers had very solid weeks except Brees, who had a great week. 

Look out, #C3FF, I was paying attention to the fantasy draft this year!

Projected Playoff Teams for all Four C3FF Leagues

Projected Playoff Teams for all Four C3FF Leagues

First, I have a confession to make.

For this year's draft, I spent ten bucks for a 1-year Pro membership to Footballguys.com, used their Draft Dominator app, and then rated everyone through their system. Their ratings do take into account the specific website-specific settings when drafting, and is fully dynamic because as you input the players that come off the board, it not only removes them from consideration but re-ranks things taking into account the strength of the positions remaining.

The Rearview Mirror: C3FF Redraft Rounds 2-4

When I first started researching for the a first-round redraft, which you can open here in a new window, I was fascinated with how/where some of the names popped up so I decided to carry through a bit more and do more rounds.

That said, Yours Truly had the top choice in round one and took All Day; most of you know that leagues generally do snake/serpentine drafts, so I had the final pick of the second round, then the first of the third, so I had a very long wait before making consecutive choices.

The Rearview Mirror: 2015 C3FF Redraft Round One

Anyone who has played fantasy football knows that research and projections go hand in hand preparing for the single event that shapes your teams' fortunes: The Fantasy Draft.

Each year, players get peeled off the board according to whatever formula a given fantasy GM thinks is best and/or just tries to do some mock drafts before the real one to get a "feel" for where players might get drafted in their league and plan accordingly.

C3FF Muhammed League Week 9 Recap

/

Week 9 of the Muhammed League saw team Atlanta Riot kick up the scoring, posting an incredible 153.5 FP last week! Amazing how it works isn't it? Lots of high-scoring players. Well that's you one wins, hello! Antonio Brown was targeted something like 28 times, and when that happens, SOME of it will connect. With Brown, all he did was have 284 receiving yards, posting almost 40 FP yeah nothing much....
