With all of the new depth at quarterback, will we see more drafts than ever in 2013 in which a QB isn't drafted in the frst round?

A qb should never be taken in the 1st round in a 12-team standard-scoring league.

I give up on Fantasy Football. I lost to a guy who took a kicker in the 7th round.....

I don't see anything wrong with taking someone like Aaron Rodgers at the end of the 1st round. The guy is super consistent and plays most games. But i personally love taking RB-RB. I know for sure I would not take a tight end

I heard a saying I like about fantasy drafting.

"You can never when a fantasy league in the 1st round, but you can lose a fantasy league in the 1st".

This is so true.
Nothing wrong with taking a safe pick like Rodgers or Brees in the 1st.

Sure beats taking a running back like McCoy or McFadden in the 1st.

I bet a whole lot more teams won championships this season with Rodgers or Brees on there team then people who had McCoy or McFadden.

Almost every team that won a title this season had a top 5 QB.

Definitely have to go RB first. There is a lot of depth at qb and you can get a quality player in the later rounds. Not so at RB

Would you like to join our $500 fantasy league next season?
This is a serious question.
Let me know.

Okay, I'll admit it. Not only did I take a QB in the first round of a 12 team league. I took a QB #1 overall (Rodgers). Now QBs in my league do get a little bit more points then the standard leagues (not that much more but still). I ended up in the bottom four. A lot of my problems had to do with injuries & a decrease in production from my picks. Rodgers had a down year from what he usually does year-to-year.

Even though I ended up in the bottom, would I do it again? Possibly.

What is 1st round? I'm unfamiliar with this rounds concept and this "draft" you speak of.

DO AUCTION NEXT YEAR!

This is so true. Once you do the auction format, you will never want to draft again.

yea I can probably do that

Justin since you are such a polarizing figure and now hold an unbelieveable amount of sway on here (mainly I think about 20 people would love to take $500 from you) Why not flex some and say only way you'll do the league is if its auction?

How would 20 people take money from someone in a fantasy football league? There is one (or maybe two) winner. Cmon patsfan I thought you knew numbers you're better then that.

Nah 20 people would WANT to, doesn't mean they all could. Just that they would be highly enthusiastic to do so and thus you would be in a position to dictate the terms of the league.

Basically I want to use your political clout to further enhance my own agenda.
