2013 FINAL ROSTER
Team Owner: Mike Verrino
Hometown: Hill Valley
2013 Record: 9-4
2014 Draft Position: 13th
Week 12: *4. Hill Valley 8-4 2000.54
The McFlys have shrugged off adversity, broken the 2,000 point plateau, and could clinch the #2 seed with a win, and some help from Silver City. Nick Foles has been a revealation, and might retain his starter's role if he can keep slinging it with perfection. A bye week would be a huge advantage for informing their decision behind center, as they would have a week to audition Rodger's health before having to make a call with all the chips on the table.
It's been a cursed season for the McFlys, with Reggie Wayne and Justin Blackmon out for the season, and Aaron Rodgers and Arian Foster perhaps joining them on injured reserve. Each loss came on the heels of upgrade trades that sapped Hill Valley's depth. And yet, shrewd moves keep the team on the cusp, hanging around and refusing to give up. It's the sort of survivor's story that can buoy a team and make them more than the sum of their parts- plenty of their young players have not yet reached their limits, and could push the parameters of their potential. Hill Valley needs that now.
Week 6: 8. Hill Valley 3-3 959.01
The McFlys have faced adversity and had some bad luck, but they have battled back to .500 and have set themselves up for a big time second half. Upside runs deep on this team, and while everyone is healthy and off bye, their roster will have one or two players on the bench that would start for all thirteen other teams in a given week. Rest assured, that wealth will be turned into more front line talent, as the McFlys round into form. Josh Gordon and Justin Blackmon are the keys- if they maintain their early returns, this team is a juggernaut, bitch.
Week 3: 8. Hill Valley 2-1 485.04
Hill Valley's robust trading resume grew again today, as he spun off a 3 for 3 that I'll review shortly. His team has amassed a glut of dependable WR2s (Nicks, V-Jax, Wayne, Gordon, Hartline) and high upside WR3s (Blackmon, Broyles) that has severely impeded his ability to deal with early onset bye weeks. Look for aggressive shopping, as the LFL's Ari Gold tries to turn his quanitity into quality- a 2 for 1 could give a scuffling team much needed depth. The team's RB duo of Sproles and Rice should start every week they are capable; Fred Jackson and Law Firm provide solid, if unexciting depth. Aaron Rodgers rounds out a roster that will score way more than it has so far.
2013 Season Preview
The McFlys have made the playoffs in each of their four years, and are amongst the league's perennial elite, putting up big numbers and winning nineteen of their last twenty six regular season games. A Larkspur Bowl championship has proven elusive, as regular season success has not translated into landing the big one, but no one would deign to ever count them out.
