Fantasy Football - Westeros Terminator League - Formerly Survivor

[Bronn Stone]

For those that don't/couldn't recall, this had a very unique format. Sixteen teams, not head to head - Rotisserie Scoring. At the end of week 2, the team with the lowest total score is eliminated from the league. The commissioner locks down his/her roster and they can no longer make transactions or score points, taking his roster of players out of the game for the rest of the year.

 

Every week thereafter, the team with the lowest score for that week is eliminated. By week 16, only two teams remain. Probably the most exciting format I've played. You don't have to be good, you just have to NEVER be the worst. The best overall team doesn't always win. One bad week and you are done.

Spaces remain.  Several teams were autorenewed and one was not, but I'd love to hear specifically if you are playing even if your team is set.

I've scheduled the draft for 4-SEP.  It is snake, so even if you can't make it a list will probably suffice.  If we don't get to 16, we can adjust the rules accordingly.

I'm not sure I have everybody mapped to Forum names.  If you still need an invite, please PM me your e-mail address.

I'm back if you have not invited me yet.  Did not check Yahoo - (but we really needed 9/4 for the Dynasty draft  )

[boiled leather]

i'm in. but you knew that

[briantw]

In.

Looks like we need one more owner for the Keeper league.  Draft is 9/5 at 9:30 pm eastern.  Not 100% sure which team you would inherit because I am letting @Jace, Basilissa have a chance to choose since she was the first volunteer.  Both are better positioned than mine in terms of keepers.

[grozeng]

Went a little overboard on RBs.  If anyone needs one, I can use a WR and D upgrade.

QB - Brady (Trubiskey)
WR - OBJ, Cooks, Agholor (Doctson, Hurns)
RB - Cook, McCoy (Lynch, Kerryon Johnson, Crowell, Mack)
TE - Kittle
D - Arizona

Did not draft a kicker.  I should be OK unless Brady sucks week 3 like last year.

[briantw]

QB - Luck (Smith)
WR - Cooper, Crowder, Benjamin (Cole, Gallup, Moore)
RB - Barkley, McCaffrey (R. Freeman, Breida)
TE - Doyle
K - Succop
DEF - Panthers

Feel pretty good about my RB situation.  Not so good about my WR situation.  I do expect Cooper to bounce back, though, with Carr presumably healthy this year.  I also think Crowder will be really good this year, as he's already been reportedly clicking with Smith.  Took some fliers on Gallup and Moore.  Hopefully at least one of them pans out.

QB should be fine.  No idea why everyone is underrating Smith so much this year.  He was lights out last year and he just moved to an offense that has produced a top five fantasy QB for like four of the past five years.  Seems like a match made in heaven to me.

[grozeng]

you picked Smith right before I was going to, but I think I went for another RB instead

Yeah, figured with Luck somewhat uncertain I needed to end up with one of the solid "end of draft" options like Smith or Keenum, both guys I expect to vastly outperform their positional ADP.

[grozeng]

Same with Brady.  Never know when he will get suspended for cheating.
