yea i went to change ellington and basically redid the whole roster
doing 5 lineups this week
Some values Im looking at are Cordarrell patterson, Cassel,sanders
Going on a hunch with Chris Johnson, Decker, Vereen in a few too
Have tate in 3 of the 5
With Shorts out in jacksonville and basically with them playing from behind all game I like the rookies Lee and Robinson for good value. I am going with Lee this week though i feel Robinson is the all around better WR but Lee atleast had a full preseason.
I took a chance on Woods in one lineup as i think he will the the #1 Bills reciever this year and they should be playing from behind as well.

Decent first week.

Cashed in 5 of my 10 10 man leagues, 2 firsts, 2 seconds and a third.

Won my only triple up.

Low level cash in 2 of my 3 GPP's.

Total ROI: 47%
Nice job! You playing any big fields?

I went 3 out of 5. I placed in a 10 man 50/50 league and cashed in 2 large fields. Came in 661st out of 17,000 and 2500ish out of 28,000. Nothing too monumental though. Need to get into that top 100 before you're really scratching off lottery tickets.

What I learned in week 1...
The guys who are hitting it big have pretty amazing lineups, but what they all have in common is big points from QB/DEF/and most times a K as well. Don't settle for whatever defense you can afford with the money you have left over. Find a D you're really confident with and go with them.

Don't get too cute at QB. Less than 33% of your entries should contain a guy who isn't a traditional top 12 type QB play. You want to take a long shot on Shaun Hill or Jake Locker...only put them in 1 lineup. Most of the guys that I saw winning in week 1 featured Matt Ryan, Peyton Manning, Matt Stafford, or Jay Cutler. Most of the guys I saw losing tried to save money by using Derek Anderson or Shaun Hill.

Agree on both of them.

The GPP's I mentioned above are the large field t'ments.

Finished:
2826 of 28735 - cashed
5096 of 34479 - cashed
4887 of 28793 - FF FC qualifier, no money
