Last year I got D. Thomas a week before he blew up by giving up Roddy White and Matt Asiata the week after he scored like 4 touchdowns.

I sent Julio Jones & Josh Gordon for Antonio Brown a week before Julio got injured and Gordon put up terrible numbers  It's cool, I started Johnny Manziel over Tannehill (vs. Revis & the Patriots) and lost in the playoffs with my team that had Antonio, Jordy, CJ Anderson, Shady, Julius, Philly D, Cody Parkey, and Emmanuel Sanders. I scored 73 points, my lowest of the season. Had I made it to the finals, I scored 180 points that final week. It's cool, the champ won $600. The champion scored 115. I'm bitter. I'm bitter as gently caress  Draft is this Thursday

So I really need to find a home run at WR after losing Jordy as my main keeper. I currently have Cruz, Kendall Wright, and Torrey smith on my bench. Latimer, quick, Perriman, and Devante Parker are all available. Would y'all make any moves? It's a PPR league and I'm boned unless I find 2015 ODBJ.

I already replaced Jordy with one of those choads I listed. I'm not looking for the week 1 the safe bet, I want the Cooks/Benjamin/Evans/Watkins/Beckham of this class. Is there anyone worth swapping out for the one of the three WR3 ceiling players on my team. Maybe one of those free agents has a chance of being a fantasy WR1. You think quick is that guy?

Could be Flacco's top WR sometime during the season, though that was much more likely before he missed the past month-ish of training. He's still the only one of the guys you listed that I think has any chance of being a top 15 WR, even if it is a really small chance.

I'm surprised he and Parker didn't get drafted after last year's bad team + rookie WR explosion.

Perriman has some injury concerns himself, but not to the extent of Cruz's. Perriman will probably be a stud the second half of the season.

Question for the smarter people in here. Draft for my 12 team 0.5 PPR keeper league is coming up soon, and I'm trying to figure out who to grab with my first real pick. We start: 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1 TE, 1 W/R/T. By the time my first real pick comes up in the 4th round, I'll have a starting roster of: Dez Bryant, AJ Green, Odell Beckham Jr., and Jeremy Hill. I'm expecting to have a choice of: Ameer Abdullah, CJ Spiller, Joique Bell, Gio bernard, Chris Ivory, Todd Gurley, or Isaiah Crowell available for my pick there. Who do we feel better about in a 0.5 PPR format to pair with Jeremy Hill as an RB2 in a potential keeper situation? My gut says Gurley as he could pay off nicely long term if he turns out to be the real deal and I feel like I can take the risk given my WR situation, though I am tempted to play it safe and grab someone like Ivory or Gio and then look for potential keeper studs later in the draft.

Of those players I think Ameer Abdullah is the best choice. He's already showing signs of being awesome, history has shown that even if Bell is viable Detroit can sustain two backs, and frankly his situation seems better than Gurley's.

So I've gone a bit handcuff crazy: I have: - CJ Anderson - Ronnie Hillman - Montee Ball and... - Joseph Randle - Darren McFadden and... -Davante Adams - Ty Montgomery It's a 16 team league, but I'm thinking it may be a bit excessive. Montee Ball mostly seems overboard, my plan is to sit on him for a bit- he'll be my first cut for the waiver wire when the season starts, but I'm also a bit curious to see if he ends up on another team. Any advice ?

Thanks, I've actually got Abdullah highlighted on my beersheet as a guy to target. Given that Gurley hasn't even played in a pre-season game, Abdullah is probably the safer long-term pick. Not sure why I overlooked him in my post. ShaneB posted:I am drafting tonight. I have pick 1 in a PPR league.

I ended up scoring 150 and 165 points respectively during the semi-finals and finals, where the highest scores in the league were 125 and 122, respectively.

Probably the best team I'll ever put together, and it threw up a measly 89 points in the championship, with a season average of ~130.

Gobias Ind. posted:I've challenged the commissioner on it and he won't even give me a real explanation. He has cited "experiences from last season" which is likely just the fact that he lost. I'm 99% sure that he's doing this because he knows the majority of the league will be slaves to Yahoo's pre-draft rankings and his scoring changes won't be reflected in their rankings, so he can find some draft steals with the spreadsheet he has put together and is bragging about. It's loving bullshit, and I've said as much, but he doesn't seem to care and neither does the rest of the league. If it is a money league, stay and exploit the rules to get paid. If it is a friends league, leave and get better friends. I hate my money work league, but everyone is so bad, I can't help but keep playing in it.

The latest is that I've managed to get a couple other people to see this for the bullshit that it is, and they are likely going to say something to the commissioner too. He's just been ignoring me, but hopefully he can't just ignore a third of the league. If he does I'm dropping out.

ABrown is the guy that you hope falls to you if you pick 2nd-6th in 1ppr. You can't go wrong with either of those guys, but being that it is 1ppr I would remove AP from the picture. So now you've got Brown and Bell. As a Bell owner there is no other player I enjoy watching more than that dude. He just melts through D-lines and reappears on the other side like a magical loving rabbit. Not saying ABrown isn't electrifying, but I just enjoy that aspect of the game more. If you go Brown, since it is 1ppr you could/shoud make your next two picks WR WR, so that you could roster WR WR flex(WR). In 1ppr you could field an insane team that may look something like: WR1: Brown WR2: Cobb/TY/Jeffery/Cooks WR3: Landry/Sanders/Matthews/AJ80 but your RBs hopefuls and lotto tickets would have to be spot on.

My work league commish, who has been at the bottom for two years straight, wanted to push through a change to make the league QB QB, with the implied reasoning that he would win the draft by grabbing two great QBs early while everyone else focused on RB/WR. Being the fantasy provocateur and maven that I am, I informed the team managers of his ulterior motives and he was promptly voted down.
