Am I dumb for keeping Hillman for an 11th in my keep league? I am already keeping CJ for my 12th. I feel like having those 2 is worth my 11th and 12th. These are the only 2 keeper that are worth anything from last year.

Show us the rest of your potential keepers.

It's a little silly because you can likely just redraft him a couple rounds later anyway. But as a precaution, you're not really losing much if you really wanna do it.

It cost +1 round to keep someone with a max of 3 and no one in the first 2 rounds. I took over this team so it will probably take a little luck this season. Undrafted keepers count as a 12.


Mark Sanchez, undrafted.
Julian Edelman, 5th round.
Denard Robinson, undrafted.
Frank Gore, 3rd round.
Steven Jackson, 6th round.
Jimmy Graham, 1st round.
CJ Anderson, undrafted.
Colin Kaepernick, 4th round.
Larry Fitzgerald, 2nd round.
Justin Hunter, 7th round.
Ronnie Hillman, undrafted.
Zach Ertz, 8th round.
Adrian Peterson, 1st round.
Adam Vinatieri, 14th round.
Cincinnati DEF, 13th round.

I love overreacting to preseason games for fantasy purposes.

Its ok to worry about Green (hence I haven't drafted him since his post-breakout season) but Hill not so much.

The only hang-up about A.J. Green is how he does legitimately get fed. Force fed. He has been the intended target on the most interceptions in the league since his entry four years ago.

Oh god, it's happening. I have severe PTSD from Doug Martin. It was my first time doing FF last year and my GF is in the league and for god knows what reason, I told her to draft him in the 2nd. She still won't let me live it down (and for good reason).

Flacco gotta throw it to somebody, especially once 36 year old Steve Smith starts to slow down into the middle of the season. And I really like perriman as a prospect. Recovering from a sprained mcl though will probably give him a slow start.

Edit: keep Stevie, try to trade him once Gates comes back, then reevaluate.

I have the number one pick in a 16 team, half PPR, 1QB/2RB/2WR/1TE/1[RB-WR-TE]/1PK/1DL/1DB/1LB/2[DL-DB-LB] roster with 8 bench spots. IDP scoring is very high, such that last year JJ Watt scored 364.4 points (more than any other player and 147 points more than the DL2.

Is there any reason whatsoever why I wouldn't take him first overall?

My data shows him as 10th overall this year and then 14 other IDP's in the top 50 :stare:

It depends on the scoring system. A lot of my projections have him at Gronk level, but those projections assume a regression of sacks and don't take into account the offensive side of the ball. His schedule this year includes games against Buffalo, Jets, and Miami as well as Jacksonville and Tennessee. And given how sorry the offense looks, particularly with the loss of Foster, I would expect him to see the field for a huge amount of time.

Plus he's doubled the number of times he can flip the loving tire.

I have something like 95% ownership in MFL10s right now of Doug Martin, and I have him in my high stakes home league too. He did single handedly keep a play alive last night, but Cinci looked like dogshit so,

Although I have a thing about contract year guys. It worked out with Doug Martin this year. Hoping R. Randle and Martin work out this year too.

Do you run any leagues to where you're in & out of the league manager area? I think that's the area that fucks me over. I can hit the site and browse logged in until I hit the LM area and I get a barebones log in page with a tiny grey "log in" button that loads a modal which I have to enter my password in to proceed. I honestly wouldn't give a poo poo except if I'm doing batch updates to keeper salaries in pockets of downtime at work I need that session to persist for longer than a few minutes. I try to save after making changes and it seems to only take a portion of the changes I submit. Haven't had an issue with the whole process until this season and if it happens during my drafts I'm gonna lose my poo poo.
