FF Foosball Draft Order for this year

shocktheworld : 8/4/2015 7:40 pm
I am def hoping that I get to pick later in the draft this year. I join one high stakes league, and last year I was runner up, but still in the money...I'd like to take the cup this year, though.

With that in mind, I hope to be slotted in the 8-10 range this year. As I do, (meaningless at this point) mocks on Yahoo, it seems that the field falls the best here.

I will go with what worked well last year, and that is 2 WR with my first 2 picks. I virtually get Odell and Either Calvin Johnson or Demaryius Thomas every time, with the fall back being (yuck) Dez Bryant or Julio Jones.

You have to be attentive to RB with the next few rounds, but this strategy has worked well the past two years, so I will stay with it.

The problem picking higher is the lack of firepower up top...

Thoughts?
only if it is a ppr league

other than that I always pick a RB within the first two rounds.

strategy does change a little depending on start,middle or end of order
i agree you need

To take a wr high. Depending on how it falls there are only 6-7 rbs that should go top 20 and 4 should deffinatly go before 8.

Usually ignore qb till like rd 8 but your 8-10 scenario puts you in prime spot to take a top qb.
What if you are in a league

where ALL TD's are worth 6 pts? No PPR

Rd 1. If u ha e picks 1-5 pick rb. AP, Charles, Bell, Lynch Lacy. If you have pick 6-12 pick a WR. Brown , Dez, OdB, Jones.

Rd 2 if you have a league wher passing tds are worth 6 then you can take Luck or Rodgers. If not take what you did not pick in rd 1.

Def late (after rd 10) kicker last.
Is Eli a sleeper this year?

While it would take a 1st or 2nd round pick to get Luck, Rodgers, or Peyton, when do you think Eli comes off the board?
I hear Jimmy Ivaroni from Great Neck...

is a helluva foosball player. I would take him in the first round easy!

Eli should be in the same tier as Romo/Ben/Stafford/Newton or thereabouts.

Luck/Rodgers is the top/elite tier

Peyton, Brees, Ryan and maybe Wilson you could put below them.

After that, I'd feel very comfortable taking Eli.

ryan is too boom or bust for me. last year it was 30 points or 5 points. at home, he is a great play. on the road, flip a coin. I would have eli on par at worse with him. maybe even slightly higher.

You could probably put Brees and Peyton alone in Tier 2 and move Ryan into Tier 3. I'm torn on Wilson... he's kind of somewhere between.

Beyond that, it's hard to find strong consistency. Most of the QB's outside of the top 5 will have a solid amount of deviation from week to week. You'll get big time weeks but every now and then you'll get the empty week. with like 220 yards, 1 TD and a couple picks.
I'm picking first in my Foosball league...

...and I'm DEFINITELY grabbing the center forward from the GREEN team - CAN'T MISS with the center forward!

I am

in 2 12 team leagues and was picking 6th in one and 11th in the other. I traded from 6 to 10th spot, so Im drafting about the same spot in both. I like that range as well. Foster getting hurt kinda screws thing up really. If A Brown and Beckham are both gone when I pick I take Forte. If none of those guys there I may have problems. But that usually means someone freaky will fall like Bell or Lynch, blah bla, bla, I agree with you.
good luck with Forte

hope you are counting on about half the catches he had last year.
