In goon fish bowl, all of the positions are almost equal, so a TE or a QB is a viable first round pick.
Despite this, David Johnson went first overall in all four divisions

Yeah, I'm just looking over the rules and of course I'm the third pick. DJ still should go first. If he does 80% of what he did last year, he is a monster.

Last year, David Johnson seriously put up the points of a RB1 AND a WR2 combined in one position.

The way the stats are aligned, I'm kinda happy anywhere. There are 3 rbs, 4 WRs, 2 TE's and 3 Qb's I really like in the first round

I think Rogers was a great 3rd overall pick, btw

I am surprised he didn't go top three in the other drafts. People didn't pay enough attention to the format

I personally don't view Rodgers as a top 3 asset in this format. He's probably only my 3rd ranked qb.

Honestly even though it's a 2QB league, QBs don't get much of a bonus, sure it's 6 pptd but a lot of regular leagues are already that, and getting a hold of a top 3 RB that also gets a ppfd bonus is still more important than a top 3 QB. Just imo though.

You'll defo need to take a QB with your next couple picks though and hopefully still land at least a potential top 10 QB.

It's more the dropoff at qb2 in the superflex that makes me lean hard toward getting a great qb early. Yes the scoring slightly bumps up every other position, but man every 2qb league Ive been in has been all about qb value

It's effectively 12 team, 2 QB? Gotta get some decent QBs, you don't want to be starting like Tannehill as QB1 and alternating McCown and Kessler as your QB2. Especially since most other starters are flex (right?), I'd go QB very early. You'll be able to successfully bid on a couple usable RBs or WRs from the wire if necessary, seems much less likely to have a good quality QB pop up and win him.

This. It's essentially a 2QB league. I got the best QB in the league. I considered Zeke at 3, but RBs die easy and Zeke has a potential suspension looming.

It's a beautiful high floor/high ceiling pick.

It's a 1 qb, 1 superflex, so you can just start 1 qb and flex another position. It is effectively a 2 qb league, but without the pain of having to start a QB32 if your draft goes a different direction

Yea, I am in another superflex league, and it feels like QBs are not quite as valuable as they would be in a true 2 QB league, since you can always start a WR during bye weeks instead of forcing every team to try and have 3 starting QB or they have an empty roster spot for 2 matches. I think that rush to make sure you are one of the teams with 3 QB inflates the QB ADP a decent amount, especially once you get to QB 15+.

The variation between drafts is pretty high too. North has 7 QBs gone in 17 picks, while West has 3 gone in 21 picks.

How do you deal with league privacy on myfantasyleague.com leagues?

I need people's email addresses in order to invite them to the league. Right? I can't see any other easy way -- is there one? But I would prefer that their email addresses are not publicly displayed (to random people viewing the league), or even shown to other league members. By default. How does one go about this?

Individual owners appear to have this option but I don't know about making "no" the default.

There was an interesting discussion about Kelce on the 4For4 podcast. Paulsen actually advocates for Kelce in the third since his floor is so high and in the case of Paulsen his next highest ranked WR is Crabtree.

Yeah, I know. I can't resist low hanging fruit. I was hoping goon hatred of TE would let him swing back to me.

Is fish bowl best ball? Or are you saying only in those formats.

This is true for all players but injuries are random so it is more intuitive to do projections based on 16 games played.

Find someone who values you like Rick Spielman values 7th round picks.



Hey there goons, my main league switched to a keeper/auction format last year and I need some help.

Select 3 to keep, for 5$ more then the price listed. Our total budget is 200$.



Im thinking Lewis, Crabtree, and?

Standard Positions, .5 PPR, 4 pt TDs.
