Mollymauk posted:Got my very first work draft coming up in a half hour full point PPR 1 QB, 3 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 1 WRT am I right in thinking I have to go 1.12 and 2.1 best WR available or just follow whatever BeerSheets tells me at best value? So in 1ppr when you look at the positions that historically provide the most value in the flex, its the WR position, so it makes sense to approach the draft from the WR WR WR WR philosophy. But since you draft at the turn, that complicates things. I would suggest that if a top 5 RB falls to you (JC, Bell, Lynch, Lacy, AP) then grab him first then the best available WR. Rounds 3,4 you will have to evaluate the talent that is remaining and their positional scarcity uaing Beersheets. Unless PTD are 6 points, I would let others fight over Luck and Rodgers. Don't even bother with an early TE unless its Gronk in the 3rd (doubtful) or Olsen later on.

Zypher posted:You might be overthinking it here. It's one thing to stash a guy on IR for next year. And another to waste a bench slot for a significant portion of the year for the hope of a trade down the line. You're hurting yourself this year for minimal gain next year Well i dropped my backup DEF Clevelad to pick up both Jordy and Kelvin. current roster is QB Ryan Tannehill WR Antonio Brown WR TY Hilton RB Ameer Abdullah RB Giovani Bernard TE Jimmy Graham W/R/T Keenan Allen BN Todd Gurley BN John Brown BN Duke Johnson Jr. BN DeVante Parker BN Kelvin Benjamin IR Jordy Nelson K Cody Parkey DEF St. Louis Really i could use a better RB but the only FA choices atm are Knile Davis, Benny Cunningham, Denard Robinson, Charles Sims, Darren Sproles. Dexter Mccluster, Dan Herron, and Lance Dunbar at the top. Could also use a backup QB, but that's what i was hoping i could trade Kelvin for is a backup QB or a decent RB. And if i absolutely needed a bench spot i could just drop kelvin benjamin back to the waiver. VietCampo fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Sep 2, 2015 |

Abugadu posted:The only reason to be gunshy about Daniels is his injury history. Honestly I just don't see it. I think he's a trap player at this point. A middling TE2, which should be decent enough at the start of the season if you're streaming TEs, but that's about it. Even if you're waiting until the last pick of the draft, I'd rather take Richard Rogers, who'll be an every-down TE on a better QB's team. Or even Daniels' replacement in Baltimore, Crockett Gillmore.

Tiptoes posted:Daniels had Kubiak last year and he still finished as TE18 with a 48/527/4 line. And that all pro, Jacob Tamme? Last time he had a role in Peyton's offense, he was TE26 with a 52/555/2 line. Joel goddamn Dreessen also went 41/356/5 and if Daniels could put up 75% of their combined numbers, that's 67/662/7 and good enough for TE9 last year. I don't think it's a bad gamble. e: Peyton's combined TE numbers that year would've been 1 point better than Jimmy Graham for TE2 last year, and Peyton's combined TE numbers last year were good enough for TE 6. Obviously a lot of that came from Julius Thomas in the red zone, but Peyton has typically not only passed a lot near the goalline, but also spread the wealth. I don't really see any reason why a fully healthy (really the main caveat) Daniels can't put up a 55/600/6 line and that was good enough for TE13 last year and within 15 points of TE9 because every TE from 6-15 is basically interchangable on a week-to-week basis. If I'm waiting until the 3rd to last round, there is nothing wrong with that. Teemu Pokemon fucked around with this message at 04:08 on Sep 2, 2015 |

Just had my first draft but nothing too crazy happened, unfortunately. Sam Bradford was drafted at 1.8. Another guy drafted 3 QBs in our 1QB league: Ryan, Palmer and Carr. I have 7 of 12 players on bye in week 9 but I can worry about that in a few weeks. I just discovered that I can't pick up a player directly to my IR spot for some reason on ESPN. The plan was to snag Jordy Nelson right after the draft as a potential keeper. Instead I'll need to drop somebody and chance not getting them back when the waivers run. Would you chance either Steve Smith or Brian Quick? For reference my WRs are: Golden Tate Jeremy Maclin Mike Wallace John Brown Steve Smith Brian Quick And would you drop any of them for either Stevie Johnson or Marvin Jones (0PPR)?

10 team, 0.5 PPR standard ESPN league I should probably get more WR depth. Tell me your thoughts: RB: Lacy, Hyde, Spiller, Blount, Duke Johnson, Woodhead WR: Dez, Green, VJax, Torrey Smith TE: Olsen, Austin SJ Currently waffling between Duke and Woodhead. I'd like to think Duke could still have a decent season after a few weeks, and I feel like if I'm starting Woodhead, my team is already more or less sunk. I could also drop Austin, but he's playing the Jaguars during Olsen's bye week. Some available WRs: Malcolm Floyd, Kenny Stills, Pierre Garcon, Kenny Britt, Reggie Wayne, Stevie Johnson

I'm reading my draft grades made by our new commissioner and he just said this about one of the teams. quote:MISSISSIPPI ROCKET SURGEONS My fantasy Commissioner just praised a team for taking two elite quarterbacks before admonishing them for taking a risk with Devonta Freeman and Arian Foster with the last two picks. Then he admits he doesn't know who a top-5 tight end is at all. I think this bodes poorly for the future.

Off the top of my head, Cecil Shorts III, Jaelen Strong, Washington, Garrett Graham, that guy nicknamed EZ with the name that doesn't have E in it. And targets are all well and good, but it helps if the person throwing them to you is accurate and fast. I say this as someone who once had Larry Fitzgerald and watched as the QB situation went from good to bad to awful to Linsley. I'm not saying he's a garbage pick this year. He'll be a solid 8-11 points/game guy in non-ppr. If he's there in the 4th, I'm grabbing him. But I have him behind Cooks, Matthews, and even Davante Adams at this point.

I have 7 of 12 players on bye in week 9 but I can worry about that in a few weeks. I should have warned you as I thought of that afterward regarding the IR slot. ESPN's software doesn't treat it like a normal starting or bench spot, which makes sense because people would just abuse it as an extra bench slot when that was never its purpose. You can drop Quick. Smith is money as a veteran backup for bye weeks. I would not drop Steve Smith for any of the mentioned. He's going to be WR1/2 whereas the other guys are deeper on the depth chart.

So, heading into Week 1 in a 1PPR league, I'm pretty short at RB until Leveon Bell comes back. Chris Ivory is locked in as my top back for Week 1, my two flex spots are filled by Landry and Agholor, but I don't know who to put in as my second RB. Choices are: Abdullah Andre Williams Jonas Gray Helu is available on waivers. I'm leaning toward starting Gray because I'm not convinced Abdullah is getting a lot of work in Week 1 -- I imagine that'll still be time for Joique Bell to prove himself. With Blount out, there's definitely work available for Gray, but it's NE, so who the gently caress knows

Got a trade offer thrown my way. 12 team startup dynasty, 1 PPR I get: Golden Tate CJ Spiller Breshad Perriman 2016 1st round pick (#2) He gets: Jordan Matthews David Johnson 2016 2nd round pick (#5, 17th overall) I feel like I should mash accept as I could use Perriman to bolster my WR bench and CJ Spiller as a fill-in for Bell/flex spot instead of Cecil Shorts (ugh) but I am really high on Matthews. Someone talk some sense into me? My RBs/bench: L. Bell, J. Hill, Zac Stacy, Charles Sims, Orleans Darkwa, David Johnson, Matt Jones, David Cobb, Thomas Rawls My WRs/bench: Jordan Matthews, Eddie Royal, Nelson Agholor, Cecil Shorts, Bruce Ellington, Jaelan Strong, Justin Hardy

Since you have Nelson Agholor, I'd probably take it. Golden Tate is a decent flex guy, CJ Spiller will be good, Perriman will either play this year and be decent or you will have him for next year, and a #2 pick.

Amergin posted:Got a trade offer thrown my way. 12 team startup dynasty, 1 PPR You're right to hesitate because Matthews is by far the most valuable player here. His offer is fair, though. I just don't think it helps your team much. And Spiller is a poor Bell fill in seeing as we're not sure Spiller is healthy for week 1. You have so many young RBs (too many, IMO) that I'd try to counter. What do you think he'd give you for just David Johnson?
