Playoff Fantasy Football League - Week #1

by Douglas M on Jan 9, 2012 4:19 PM CST

The first week of Playoff Fantasy Football is done. There were upsets a-plenty with Denver nixing the Steelers in a thriller, and Atlanta losing to a suddenly resurgent New York Giants. Some players lived up to expectations: Calvin Johnson, Dree Brees, Adrian Foster... While others just plain never showed up: Andy Dalton, Michael Turner, Mike Wallace...This next round will be telling, in that every team will have their primary draft picks to build their teams. Rodgers and Brady will add their weight to FF teams that fell short week #1.

Team TST's roster will be set by Sergey606 (and his girlfriend) this week, and he'll get to suffer from my wide receiver black out during the draft. He'll have Wes Welker, Hakeem Nicks, James Jones, Lee Evans and Jacoby Jones to choose from this week. Brick Top lost his two top QBs, and will be playing Alex Smith for the rest of the playoffs. Mike D is down to a single TE, but his deep WR draft should carry him forward nicely. Then there is Ryan... His team featured Adrian Foster and Demarius Thomas, both of whom had outstanding weeks.

Here are this week's results, as well as the rosters of each team (after player deletions) so you can chime in on team picks for this week...

Next year, do the person in 4th place a favor and don’t make them pick last EVERY ROUND.

Honestly, I don't think the picking 4th is that bad. You just took a run of picks on teams that lost this week

I’ll switch it around next year, but you’ll probably win the Weekly picks next year, so… :-)

But that was because all the bye week players were gone

I had to pick players based on what teams I though would win and I though Bengals and Steelers would win.

You passed on Rice,, Jordy Nelson, Welker, Sproles, Foster and Megatron to take Gronk and Gore

I took Gronk because of the TDs, but I though I was picking next so I could just get Rice too

Also I thoght Foster and MEgatron were both out after one week and that Gore was a better pick than Nelson Welker and Sproles, should of went Sproles, but ah well….I lost, I’m over it already
