Buane posted:I agree, but it's extremely rare a team ends up with -10. Buffalo gave up 40 points to New England but walked away with -2 fantasy points because they had 2 fumble recoveries and 2 sacks, which feels about right for their performance. -5 for 28 points and -10 for 35 points still seems like way too much. Every other position's floor is around -2 to -4 for extremely bad performances. Giving up 28 points with no turnovers or sacks is not good, but it's not extremely bad either. I don't think that should result in less points than a RB that loses 2 fumbles on 2 carries for 0 yards. I think it'd be a bit better if you raised the threshold for -5 or -10 a bit, e.g. at least 40+ for -10. Another thing to consider would be to up the value of a safety, especially after raising INTs and fumble recoveries to 3. A safety isn't just 2 points for the team, it's 2 points plus a turnover since the safetied team must then punt the ball away. It should at least be worth as much as a normal turnover, if not a little bit more. Maybe in the 3-5 range rather than 2.

I called bullshit and the person who is getting LeVeon said "I helped them pick up waiver wire people and set their lineup! It's fair compensation!" Of course that person is commish and there is no voting on trades. Buncha bullshit.

Is Thomas Quick worth picking up over one of Boldin, Tate, Garcon? I've heard the argument against Boldin, but am adding the other two just in case Edit: Also, should I drop DeAngelo Williams for Dion Lewis, Lance Dunbar, David Johnson, Alfred Blue or Dilal Powell? I have Bell, just to be clear I wanted to hang onto Williams in case Bell got hurt, but with Big Rape out of commission, I don't even know if it would matter at this point Duro fucked around with this message at 23:16 on Oct 2, 2015 |

Duro posted:Is Thomas Quick worth picking up over one of Boldin, Tate, Garcon? Tate and Garcon have at least seen steady targets the first 3 weeks, despite not a lot of fantasy production. I wouldn't drop either of them for Brian Quick (Assuming you mean Brian Quick). I say this as a Tate owner who ended up dropping Boldin for Quick because I would rather take a flier on my worst WR than keep Boldin.

ESPN standard 0ppr, looking for a better receiver; willing to package a solid RB and WR2/3, haven't been able to get any bites, I don't know if I'm offering bad trades and overvaluing my team or if people are just trade adverse. My team: QB: Tannehill RB: Gore, Ivory, Karlos Williams, Hill, HIllman, Antonio Andrews WR: AJ Green, Maclin, Cooks, Hankerson, Hurns TE: Reed, Antonio Gates Should I be trying to flip a RB for a Brandon Marshal type? Would I have to package Maclin or Cooks to get that? Should I be trying to trade up for a better QB? Should I sit on if for a couple weeks and hope Hill and Cooks rebound and both my TEs are top 6? (I'm 1-2 because I lost by 1 with Chris Ivory giving me a 0 and Mia DST giving me -6 last week so I'm pretty tilted).

My team is really consistent, but not a lot of standouts. I just always get bad matchups week in and week out. Always the second highest scorer in the league, losing to the first. But I'm slowly trying to improve my team. Picked up Carr (as a backup) and Lewis for now, but I'd like to switch out one of my WR for someone better. Maybe someone that's under the radar but had a chance to make a splash. That's why I asked about Quick RVProfootballer posted:You should drop Boldin and add Lewis immediately. Dunbar might be worth an add/drop too, depending who else you have. I'd just drop DeAngelo Williams for him, but maybe you have someone even more worthless. Ok, so my RB's are Bell, Gore, Miller and now Lewis. I think I might want to hold onto Gore, but Miller has been looking mighty useless.

Never look at the projections they are very misleading. If you need help with sit/start decisions go find a rank list from a fantasy expert you like and use that to help you decide. Alternatively you can use the fantasypros expert consensus ranking (ECR) which just averages a bunch of rankings. If the guys you are looking at are within a couple spots of each other then go with your gut.

SeannieDarko posted:Who wins in 1PPR? Tough. Once Jeffery starts playing, I expect he'll be at worst equal to Moncrief (maybe that's optimistic on Jeffery though?). Duke Johnson is kind of inconsequential, while Ivory should be a mid RB2 and Clay a low end TE1. Depends on league size and QB availability on the wire, but if you could drop Stafford and go with someone like Dalton, Taylor, even Rivers or Carr or something, and if Clay is an upgrade over the current TE, I'd probably take the side getting Jeffery and Ivory. It's certainly a decent payoff selling Brady, assuming 1 QB league. If you're at all down on Jeffery (understandable) or would actually be starting Stafford or not starting Clay, then Brady and Moncrief.

I have Jordan Matthews, Keenan Allen, and VJax to offset the Jeffrey loss (especially if I get Moncrieff back) at WR and LVB, Murray, Mathews, and Melvin Gordon at RB. Kelce is my TE. I'm currently rolling with T-Mobile. I'm just curious if I'm overpaying for Brady.

Some dude on Twitter claimed that foster bought 20 tickets to the Texans falcons game, suggesting he's inviting his friends and family to watch because he knows he's going to play. That or he could just be hooking his friends and family up. Who loving knows.

I'm in a super weird spot where I kind of don't want Lynch's status to be announced until game time because I'm playing his owner this week. On the other hand, I picked up Rawls so if Lynch is announced to be out I'd love to throw him into my lineup over Matt Jones or Lamar Miller. Then again I might just be forced to play Miller if the Eagles game is postponed because of a hurricane and Lynch's status is still unknown Sunday morning. Fantasy football is weird, part 43587535.

I'd probably hold if I were you. Moncrief for Jeffery is probably approximately a wash, but you don't need Clay and Ivory is your RB2 or RB3 depending on which Murray that is. I'd probably keep rolling with Taylor and worry about trading for a QB if he crashes and burns. It isn't awful, but I think you might be undervaluing Ivory imo.

My roster is goofy and I'd appreciate some feedback. I'm obviously weak as hell at RB and having Newton and Palmer both doesn't make sense except for week 5 when Newton has a bye. The only RB free agents are the likes of Powell, Bush, and C Michael. Trying to see what I could offer someone with QB trouble to get a decent RB 2/3. Edit: 12 team Yahoo non PPR league

I'm at 3-0 in a 8 team 2QB PPR league and am trying to get one of the cellar dwellers to panic into sending me an RB. This guy is 1-2 and looking like he's going 1-3. I'm trying to swindle Le'Veon Bell. QB Tom Brady QB Joe Flacco QB Colin Kaepernick RB Le'Veon Bell RB CJ Anderson RB Alfred Morris RB DeAngelo Williams WR AJ Green WR Julian Edelman WR Mike Evans WR Sammy Watkins TE Martellus Bennett TE Austin Sefarian-Jenkins My initial offer was Cam Newton+Steve Smith+Justin Forsett for Le'Veon Bell, and I'm waiting on a counter. Here's me: QB Aaron Rodgers QB Matt Ryan QB Cam Newton RB Justin Forsett RB Devonta Freeman RB Karlos Williams RB Danny Woodhead WR Julio Jones WR Alshon Jeffery WR Brandon Marshall WR Steve Smith Sr. TE Greg Olsen TE Travis Kelce Our bonuses really favor receiving RBs, even more than a standard full PPR league, so Bell will be up with Jamaal Charles and Matt Forte in a tier above the rest of the league. I'm prepared to send a package even as big as a 4-1 if it comes down to it(something like Newton+Jeffery+Forsett+Kelce). Think that will get the job done? Idiotic idea from an idiot? It's worth noting that I'll be banking either Romo or Roethlisberger from waivers as my QB3 if this goes through.
