Heres my whole team. The space 2/3 the way down separates players from bench. We play 2 QB's. I had pick 9 this year so just took 2 good QB's on my 1st 2 picks and then got a little lucky with a few picks after that.

Gotta take the best player left during draft and after. Thru the years the diehard team picking players, regardless of team always do poorly. The one exception is a player who picks past Vikings players, but just the best ones. He does good with that.

Most players in my league are Vikes fans. One likes GB, one likes the Broncos. used to be some others that quit playing. I think the other 8 are Vikings fans, 10 of us all together. A lot of Vikes fans moved to GB fandom after the 1998-1999 season, which was brutal for Vikes fans. I quit watching Vikings football maybe 5 years after that year. The mere mention of that season and Denny Green in the same sentence still makes many of us shiver...

I think it was Favre's first Viking season that brought back a lot of those previous fans.

And actually I picked Jones because he was a RB on a team (GB) that just lost their star QB so I figured they wouldnt pass as much and would give the ball to RB's instead of throwing it. That story hasnt been fully written yet, lol Its all strategy. A lot of times bye weeks stop me from picking who I really want. Its a lot of fun as long as your in the mix and my league pays back 6 places so its easy to get your money back. $50 buy in. Almost $200 to win. 3th place or higher and Im ahead.

My kid does FF...I've done it for ten years+ before (not this year). He played the players I suggested and won by a whisker this week. If Kittle would have kept on playing in last nights massacre against the Cowgirls he would have lost if Kittle caught one more pass ..as it was they pulled the starters out, incl. Kittle from the game. He lucked out.

In my managed league, I gave bonus points to folks who played Bears players and punishment points for those who played Packer's players. Nothing plus or minus for other teams. It made it funner...another decision to make and factors to consider. And I hate the Packers...so I abused my authority. Everyone has the same known rules about scoring in the FF league and the majority agreed with my extra/negative points except for the one GB Rodgers fan....
