Here is my team, I’m pretty happy. Not sure who will be my flex player though. Weird picks of the night included the Steelers D/ST in with the first pick of the third round!!! Also a kicker was taken in the 8th round. Lots of Ds were taken super early, same with kickers. I couldn't believe it.

QB       Kurt Warner      ARZ
RB1       Matt Forte      CHI
RB2       Clinton Portis      WAS
WR1       Marques Colston           NO
WR2       Wes Welker      NE
RB/WR           Bernard Berrian           MN
TE      Dallas Clark      IND
DEF/ST     Bears              CHI
KR      Joe Nedney      SF

Bench:
RB      Joseph Addai      IND
RB      Donald Brown      IND
RB      Knowshon Moreno           DEN
WR      Vincent Jackson           SD
WR      Steve Breaston      ARZ
TE      Zach Miller      OAK
QB      Matt Hasselbeck           SEA

What do you guys think, how has your draft gone! And yes I'm very bored at work at the moment.

Solid.  How many members are there in your league?

I hope you're right on the Bears defense.  8)

10 team league.

I hope so too on the Bears D/ST. But in a 10 team league I think I can always find an okay D to play...

Good team, although maybe a little light at QB. I am not a big fan of older QBs coming off of career years and Haddelback is an unknown. You may want to look for a plan C in case Warner can't replicate last season.

I was hoping to get Garrad but he was taken as a backup QB earlier than I thought he would.

I do worry about QB, I should have taken Aarron Rogers (he went right after Warner in the 3rd round). But I couldn't have the packers QB on my fantasy team!!!!

(I'm a bears fan  ;))

I like your starting WRs, TEs, and QBs a lot. Your bench WRs are rookies with upside, but one should pan out for you.

I don't like your RB situation at all. I think you'll regret only having 3 RBs and I don't like your top 3 anyways. 12 team league?

15 team league.  Punters, somehow, score about 1.5x as much as RBs  ::)

QB - Donovan McNabb
WR1 - Steve Smith
WR2 - Wesley WELKAHH
WR3 - Braylon Edwards
RB1 - Michael Turner
RB2 - Marion Barber
TE - Jason Witten
Def - Carolina
K - John Carney
P - Sam Koch

Bench

QB - Carson Palmer
WR - Devin Hester
WR - Earl Bennett
RB - Reggie Bush
RB - Felix Jones
TE - Dustin Keller
Def - Indianapolis
K - Jason Hanson
P - Chris Hanson

Yeah, it's a screwy league.

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

Punters score that much? Weird....

Is there a great deal of seperation between good and bad punters?

Not really, but if you get stuck with a guy outside the top ten it could cost you around 200-300 points (For example, Sam Koch scored 884 points last year in this format, while Chris Hanson scored 512...meanwhile, Adrian Peterson scored 450...).

That's stupid! No way should the best punter score more than the best RB. The best RB in football is worth more than the best punter, fantasy should reflect that somewhat.

How does it work?

Here are the league settings:
http://games.espn.go.com/ffl/tools/leaguesettings?leagueId=413282

If that doesn't work, here is the punter scoring mechanism:
Every 1 punting yards   0.2       
Punts Inside the 10   2   
Punts Inside the 20   1       
Punt Average 44.0+   5   
Punt Average 42.0-43.9   4       
Punt Average 40.0-41.9   3   

Obviously scoring every punting yard is the key impact here.  If you get the Raiders' punter, no matter if he's terrible, he'll put up huge numbers.  I think it was designed to make the league quirky, but it'll likely just result in some frustrated owners.

I actually like the points for punting within the 10/20/etc. and for Punting average.

The punt yardage scoring is ridiculous.

Yeah, so as much as I like my position players, one bad game from Sam Koch and I could be sunk.  Pretty volatile league.  It'll be fun, though.
