Sataere posted:MASH. You are trading Cooper and two garbage players for Gronk and two garbage players Thanks for the confirmation. Writing up the post convinced me to accept before I even saw your post. Anyone know how Apex Leagues (which use MFL for their platform) handle trades? Should I expect this to go through in the next few hours? Edit: and another trade offer just came in. My Ingram for their Watkins. I'm down on both but leaning no. However, having just traded away Cooper I do like the idea of losing a RB and gaining a WR. But I just don't know if Watkins will ever be 100%.

Sooooo, my RB situation in my 12-man league is dire at best. Current lineup: Bort Ware, Lacy/Langford Brown, Cooks, Maclin Cook Flex: Fuller Bench: Foster (lol), Coleman, E. Sanders, Eifert Should I look to package Fuller and Lacy/Langford to try and upgrade at RB? Who should I realistically target for an option? God I hate this.

If you had to drop one and didn't have either of their hancuffs, would you drop Bilal Powell or Alfred Morris?

VJax is barely worth a roster spot and McCluster will most likely be playing golf in a few weeks. Meanwhile Gronk is Gronk, and Beasley and Asiata are legit backups. You're trading away a solid WR (of which you have several) and waiver garbage for the best TE in the league and two solid bench pieces.

We have 12 teams, six make the playoffs, two divisions, and I am not going to change that basic structure at this point. We have 12 teams @$25 each, and pay out $160 to 1st place, $80 to second, $40 to third, and the winner of the consolation bracket gets $20. I feel it's important to give teams that are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs something to still be playing for, because otherwise owners tend to check out and stop managing their teams, and that can give unfair free wins to whoever is facing them at the end of the regular season.

We have 12 teams, six make the playoffs, two divisions, and I am not going to change that basic structure at this point. I just took over mine for this year but decided on this after a bit of input from my league: $60 buy in, 10 teams, $600 prize pot. $360 to winner (6x buy in) $120 to second place (2x buy in) $120 in bi-weekly bonuses. (2x buy in) Bonuses lean toward the silly side for the first few weeks just to make things fun, then they ramp up at the end so that even teams out of playoff contention have a money incentive to keep playing. Week 2: $15 - Highest scoring losing team Week 4: $15 - Most interceptions + fumbles from starters Week 6: $15 - Lowest scoring starter (QB/RB/WR only) Week 8: $20 - Highest scoring starter (any pos) Week 10: $25 - Largest win differential Week 12: $30 - Most points for at regular season end There's a few other details like tiebreakers but that's the gist of it. Should hopefully act as a consolation prize to keep people motivated throughout the season

You are offering Fitz and scrub RB for AB. Because Ingram ain't done poo poo. A 2 for 1 trade, in order for it to work, has to upgrade two positions with point production more than keeping that one elite player staying on their roster would.

Belichick is going to ram it down their throats with Blount and Gronk is in there for his blocking prowess. With Brissett starting on a short week, I would be tempted to go with an alternative option if the match-up looks better (ie a guy like Jacob Tamme @Saints).

It wasn't a good offer but calling Ingram a scrub is laughably disingenuous. Is Allen Robinson also a scrub because he hasn't done poo poo in two games? Yes, there are workload concerns with Ingram and he's obviously not as valuable as he was on draft day, but let's not be needlessly hyperbolic.

Make your calls before it's too late~ allow me to put my wrong and bad call on the record. disclaimer: huge pats fan He'll be out there blocking more than anything, exactly like Bennett in week 1. Brissett is gonna need all the time he can get to avoid dying to Watt and friends. He catches a few Oh poo poo dump offs and salvages a decent fantasy score via a red zone TD. I don't really expect him to be running deep seam routes his first night back from a bum hammy with a random shitlord at QB. Or he puts up 180 yards and 3 scores with our lord and savior Julian Edelman at the helm  . But I'm going with the first one.

I predict jj watt breaks gronk's legs off at the knee, lamar miller snaps his ankle, whoever the pats are starting at qb (I forget his name) throws for 400 yards, three touchdowns, four interceptions, and a concussion, and julian edelman misses the game-winning 2-ponint conversion by passing the ball directly to the face of the line judge.

If Rishard I consider him droppable for basically anyone in the league, so knock yourself out. Agree you shouldn't be outright dropping Kelce yet. Although I'm not sure he's ever going to unleash his potential with Smith never looking more than 4 yards downfield.

Thomas Rawls was dropped in my full PPR league. I have a FAAB budget of $728 left. (Started with $1000) Here's my RB core Devonta Freeman Tevin Coleman Duke Johnson Derrick Henry With Corey Coleman out for at least a month, I think Duke will get a lot of looks down field. I think Henry might break out later in the season. There's 14 teams total in the league so I'd like to know what you guys think I should bid on Rawls if at all. He looks to be in a RBBC situation and C Mike isn't available. Any advice goons?

What is the fun of fantasy sports if you can't get needlessly hyperbolic? For the purposes of that trade, at this point in time, he is a scrub. The only reason to put him in that trade is because you are hoping his name will push him through. If he had said Shane Vereen or Matt Jones, you would say it was a scrub and their production is identical. And pulling Allen Robinson is being hyperbolic, because he has had the opportunities to produce, where as there are legitimate concerns as to the opportunities Ingram is getting relative to his draft value.

The only one on my bench that is even close to droppable is John Brown and I think I should hold onto him since we start 3 WR with no flex.
