I played on a few rando pay leagues over the years and in my experience there will be a couple people very into it who post a lot, most are basically bots in video games, and a couple will stop showing up after the first few weeks

Ugh, I'm already considering dropping Theo Riddick for Christine Michael to handcuff Rawls and I just finished that draft 4 hours ago.

Fantasy Football.

In non-PPR this is probably a good move because when the hell are you going to know when to use Theo Riddick? At least CMike has an easier road to production.

Oh God I endorsed CMike.

I do not know if this has been asked/answered or not. Are your sheets set in stone no matter what the current pool of players is, or if you removed let's say the top 20 players drafted the calculations would skew the tiers and other numbers creating a completely different view of a draft at an individual point?

Tiers wouldn't change much. I haven't really experimented much with altering the player pool.

A friendly face.

Had my main league draft with my friends together at a beach house in obx north carolina today, drafted on my phone and forgot to print a beersheet for it but I think I got a kinda stacked team for a 10 team standard league, QB/2RB/2WR/2 Flex/DST/K, picked 7th

1.7 DeAndre Hopkins - WR
2.14 Allen Robinson - WR
3.27 C.J. Anderson - RB
4.34 Matt Forte - RB
5.47 Latavius Murray - RB
6.54 Keenan Allen - WR
7.67 Arian Foster - RB
8.74 Coby Fleener - Te
9.87 Ameer Abdullah - RB
10.94 Sterling Shepard - WR
11.107 Michael Thomas - WR
12.114 Tyrod Taylor - QB
13.127 Devontae Booker - RB
14.134 Julius Thomas - TE
15.147 Phillip Dorsett - WR
16.154 Chiefs D
17.167 Chris Boswell - K

Oh God I endorsed CMike.

As this thread's designated Seahawks Homer, I'm almost ready to buy into the CMike hype this time.

Give me time to explain myself. For most of CMike's career he's been dogged with reports that he was lazy, immature and didn't take the time to hone his obvious talents. The Seahawks cut bait before last year and he spent time in the wilderness, before coming back to Seattle and doing some nice things when our depth chart was depleted.

This year, the buzz around CMike was totally different. Instead of vague camp reports about how he "needs to up his mental game" or whatever, we've seen glowing reports of him taking a leadership role, being the first one in the RB tape room and just generally taking things more seriously. And his on-field talent has never been in question, as we saw in last week's preseason game, where he looked as crisp and explosive as ever.

Maybe last year was a "Road To Damascus" moment for him, or maybe he'll revert back to old lazy CMike. But for now, it looks like he genuinely turned a new leaf and could become a solid 1B to Rawls' 1A.

Feel free to quote this if he sucks and gets cut again.

I'm not currently in any redraft leagues and I'd like to pick up a league or two. So if you are looking to fill a spot, hit me up. I'm not into IDP leagues, I am open to a money league. I prefer snake drafts and .5 ppr, but I'm flexible on these. I also prefer standard scoring schemes otherwise, so no crazy yardage bonuses, or 6 pt passing tds. Oh and a Flex is better than a 3rd WR on the roster.

quote:

Appearing on Mike Clay's Sirius XM Fantasy show, ESPN Panthers reporter David Newton suggested Devin Funchess could outproduce Kelvin Benjamin this season.

Newton called Benjamin's conditioning "still a concern," and Funchess a "sleeker, faster version of Benjamin." It was disappointing to see Benjamin dominate first-team snaps in Carolina's preseason opener as Funchess shuttled between the ones and twos, but Funchess' role could grow quickly if Benjamin takes any steps back. Funchess remains an intriguing double-digit-round fantasy pick

V: Kelvin Benjamin in the third round is a sucker's bet.

Was planning on keeping Benjamin for $6 in a 12 man 0.5PPR auction league ($200 budget). I assume this is still a good decision? Not exactly the type of news I was hoping to hear about him.

Some friendly off season advice: Remember with detail how players were preforming at the end of last season, and ignore all current news that isn't injury related.

I had to choose between trading Jordy or Kelvin this offseason. (Can keep either in the 15th). Hope this means I made the right choice.

FWIW, I have a really hard time imagining any scenario where I'd take Kelvin over Jordy.

Hey so why is CJ Anderson ranked relatively highly this year when last year he was borderline droppable for most of the season? Am I missing something?

(I traded down last year to draft CJ Anderson at #6 overall, I am very stupid)

He had a few dud games, but in the second half of the season and playoffs he was a quality RB more often than not. Getting over injury easily explained the first half of the season. He's not going in the 1st round or anything absurd, but he should he a decent RB2 with RB1 upside.

I've messed around with the database a bit. I wrote code, for instance, to analyze the play-by-play data to determine the share of the teams total targets a player gets since its not available in the preprocessed data. Feel free to PM me if you have some questions, I might be able to help.
