MMAPLAYGROUND FANTASY FOOTBALL- YOUR TEAMS BIGGEST SURPRISES AND DISAPPOINTMENTS

We're already 6 weeks in and already I've seen some players play better and worse than I thought they would. I'm wondering who, out of your rosters, has played the best and worst.

My biggest surprise is Fred Jackson (RB-Bills). He ranked the #1 RB in fantasy scoring. I figured he would be a good complement to Rogers but I had no idea he would get me as many points as he has.

My biggest disappointment would he Colston (WR- Saints). It hasn't been his fault that he hasn't put up a lot of points beings he was injured bit I thought he would stay healthy. The good news is that he's back on the field.

i picked up colston after he got hurt & held him on my bench for 3 weeks. he's going to pay off big by season's end

you should have joined the playground league. What league did you join?

prophecy is killing us in the playground league.

I'm climbing back from 0-4 and at 2-4 now.

Biggest suprise might be Garcon or Rob Gronkowski.

Disapointment prolly Lynch, Wayne, and even Matty Ice. Also I don't have a decent defense, I just pick up the best looking one for the week.

I didn't own you. I beat you. And if we match up again I'm gonna be just as worried as I was week 1. I don't rub stuff in peoples faces just to make myself look good on these forums. Every day is different and you could kick my ass next time worse than anyone's ever been beat. Truth

Strictly in the playground league....

Biggest surprise is Jimmy Graham. Not really a huge surprise because I knew he was a sleeper, but he's definately exceeding expectations.

Biggest dissapointment is Mike Williams South. Definately under achieving at this point.

Overall....i'm loving Fred Jackson. I drafted him as a 3rd RB in another league behind Jamaal Charles and Frank Gore. Initially, I meant to draft Ray Rice but clicked the draft button when Charles was highlighted on accident. I wasn't too upset about it until Charles sustained a season ending injury in week 1. I thought I was screwed for sure. That's not the case though. Fred Jackson has saved my season and I am currently in 2nd place in that league. I'm still kicking myself though for not getting Rice like I intended to. Rice, Gore, and Jackson would have made me pretty much unstoppable. I still have a great team though.

QB - Matt Stafford
RB - Fred Jackson
RB - Frank Gore
RB/WR - Vincent Jackson
WR - Wes Welker
WR - Dwayne Bowe
TE - Jimmy Graham
Def - Cowboys
K - Robbie Gould

B - Matt Schaub
B - Anquan Boldin
B - Daniel Thomas
B - Earnest Graham
B - Michael Bush
B - Eagles Def
B - Brandon Pettigrew

Pretty stacked if you ask me.

Daniel Thomas was a good pickup Prophecy. I didn't pay close enough attention to notice he was available on the wire. If I had, I would've definately put my bid in.

yeah, I needed another RB because Hillis is most likely out and Fred Jackson has a bye.

My whole team is a disappointment...Mendenhall is the biggest letdown...

I'm surprised nobody said Chad Ochocinco as a disappointment

Twenty20Dollars is the hottest team in our league, now on a 3 game winning streak (3-4). My 6 game winning streak was snapped last week

I have too many leagues this year but there are a couple of WR's I got a lot and both are shocking me.

Bad- Roddy White( 5 times) . I had him ranked as the #2 wr coming in this year and he's around top 20-25. All 5 leagues I have him in he was my 1rst wr drafted.


Good- Steve Smith(CAR-7 times) He had fallen so far and I kept getting him so late I had to take him. I figured he would be Newtons only reliable downfield threat.Depending on the leagues depth he was my 5th to 7th wr drafted each time. Never thought he'd return to his prime top 5 wr form

My biggest disappointment is in my $1200 to winner league I finally got a top 2 pick in year 6 and I took CJY2K (AP was gone). I flipped him after week 4 for Mendenhall/DeSean so if he would've broke out post-trade it would've been a double whammy.

Nicks was the only WR I took in the first 10 rounds as I hoarded RB's for future trades, so Jordy Nelson has been my biggest surprise as I took him very very late and he's to this point put up back end WR1 numbers along with Nicks.

I have Nelson also. He started out good and then in week 2 or 3 he was having a bad game and I was second guessing him. Then he grabs 1 pass for an 84 yard touchdown and got me 14 pts. He restored my faith with 1 catch.

Glad some people didn't pay attention to the post i made in the previous thread about not wasting our time and joining if you were going to quit mid season and stop paying attention. Playing kingsmasher this week and he multiple players in his starting line up who are on a bye. Considering he's 0-7, i'm assuming this isn't the first week he hasn't been setting his lineup.

that's him just being a poor sport. On a side note, looks like I'm gonna lose my second on a row

I knew I was gonna have a hard time winning during Fred Jackson and Wes Welkers bye week and Rogers and Jordy Nelson bye week. What i didn't expect was for Mcgahee, Hillis and Daniel Thomas all to be injured at the same time. Jackson is the only HB that has been dependable for me. Colston has been hit or miss for the most part due to injury and Owen Daniels and Dallas Clark both seen to have better days when I sit them.

i want to join the PG league next year

My team in the Playground league sucks.

In Hippy's dynasty league, I'm in 3rd currently. In the only pay league I'm in, I'm sitting in 2nd place.

I didn't do a live draft and at first my team was meh I started off 1-2 but have won 4 straight! In a deep league too theirs 12 teams so sometimes I've been stuck starting second string guys. Pierre Thomas and julious Jones have been big disappointment. Daniel Thomas from Miami looked good with back to back 100 yard games but his nagging hamstring injury is a pain in the ass especially since bush had his best game in Miami last week which is bad.

Thank god Rogers and the packers haven't got hit with the curse. He's been single handedly winning for me. Bowe and Wallace have been reliable recievers but manningham has been itch but luckily when Jones got hurt I cashed in on Murray when he got 200 yards
