So I got Ronnie Brown in Round 12 and STILL got called a homer!

So, my pick came around in Round 12 and just so happens that RB was there. I figure, "hey, good value here" and pull the trigger. I got homer calls for the rest of the day....

People are idiots. That's a damn good pick.

milldog · 09-01-2008, 12:22 PM

Yeah, they must not have too much experience playing FF then. Every team needs more than 1 solid RB. And Ronnie is solid! Good choice!

They won't won't be laughing when your 12th round pick is tearing it up mid season.

That's phenomenal value for a runningback with skills like Ronnie.

That's just part of fantasy football...they know you're a phin fan....so obviously they gotta bust....cheap jedi mind tricks.

I'de let them call me whatever they like if they let me get Ronnie in the 12th. He shouldn't even have been around in the 3rd.

Lazy1 · 09-01-2008, 10:00 PM

my buddy drafted dan carpenter as like the 3rd kicker taken... enough said. Most people in the league are fin fans so we all thought it was funny.

I also got Ronnie late, around the same time. His injuries and Ricky being the the possible starter has scared people off. Happens all the time in fantasy. Its no stretch in round 12, esp with 12 teams.....but in my league, people also talk smack no matter who anyone picks really....thought that was half the fun of it.

Ronnie went at the end of the sixth round in my draft (70th overall). Last season he went at the end of the second round (24th overall).
