ROCK THE HOUSE M.D. posted:I haven't played FF in a few years, can someone give me some draft strategy tips for these settings? Those points per completion and only -1 per interception make it seem like a top tier QB could be worthwhile. Drew Brees might be a first rounder with those settings. When figuring out QB, target volume passers

Auction is a ton of fun! Although I will admit it takes some of the suspense out of it all. Most of the suspense comes from your $1-$3 purchases lol

Not to mention that he was on the verge of emerging as an elite wr before he really tore up his knee and never looked the same until last year. At only age 28(I think) he still has wr1 potential in his range of outcomes.

Snake draft is like playing crazy 8s, auction is like playing poker. Just so much more subtle strategy and knowing how to read the room. Adds a whole extra element to it. After doing one auction, I never had the desire to do a snake draft again

Taylor 16) Succop thoughts or suggestions on moves?

Tiptoes posted:I can understand the arguments against Britt. There are more playmakers on this Browns team than he had to contend with on the Rams; he's playing opposite a 1st round pick and the Browns are much better at running the ball. His numbers could easily dip and I feel like there's not a big gulf between where he is now and him becoming a fungible WR3/4 type. Like he settles in as a solid contributor at real football for the Browns but he's more of a replacement-level player in fantasy. He's going so late though it's hard to poo poo on him and he's still a solid player. That's just the point though, you can't poo poo on him at his ADP, which is somewhere at round 10+.

He's hitting the prime of his life right now as a 6'3 WR who can run full speed into a jump ball situation better than most guys his size.

How did I do? Felt like it was crazy Shady and Gordon slipped to me! The beer set in with the Brady pick, but they added an extra 5 pts for 500 yard passing games and it made me reach. Had only I known I could have had Mariota that late. 0.3 PPR 0.1 rushing attempt QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/TE/FLEX/K/DEF #8 pick Stephan

Must've been really buzzed or something because 5 pts for 500 yards passing bonus is p much moot. But overall it's a p strong team, especially if Luck is good to go.

Sorry, extra 3 points at 350 yards, extra 5 points at 400 yards, extra 8 point at 500 yards passing I would have went Lynch instead of Brady, but I justified that Lynch and Ingram are the same It also threw me off cause this league is usually REALLY aggresive with QB even in the 1st round 89 fucked around with this message at 23:44 on Aug 20, 2017 |

 Rate My Draft 10 team, 0.5 ppr, standard scoring 1QB/2RB/3WR/1FLEX/1TE/K/Defense/Defensive Player/Dback I kept Antonio Brown in the 3rd, and Jordy Nelson in the 15th. QB- Aaron Rodgers WR- Antonio Brown WR- Jordy Nelson WR- TY Hilton RB- Spencer Ware RB- Joe Mixon TE- Greg Olsen FLEX- Willie Snead B-Tevin Coleman B-CJ Anderson B- Brandon Marshall B- Mike Gillislee B- Duke Johnson B- Gio Bernard B- Thomas Rawls B- Robby Anderson B- Rex Burkhead Defensive Player- Luke Kuechly All the good running backs were kept, so I went zero RB. I have to drop 3 guys for a Kicker, Defense, and Dback, but I think my WR/QB/TE is strong enough to carry my weak RB corps. I'm gonna try to work a trade for Hunt so I own him and Ware. Thoughts?

Loving your WRs, but RB needs a lot of work and praying. In a PPR league, its better because Duke, Gio, and Burkhead have value. Maybe Fat Eddie will suck and Rawls takes back over.

Did my work auction league today. 14 team, 1 PPR. $250 cap QB - Wentz ($6) RB - David Johnson ($70) RB - Ty Montgomery ($30) WR - Dez ($35) WR - Emmanuel Sanders ($22) TE - Kelce ($30) Flex - Ingram ($20) K - Santos ($1) D/ST - Bills ($1) Bench - Martavis Bryant ($10) Bench - Diggs ($5) Bench - Blount ($5) Bench - Crowder ($7) Bench - DeVante Parker ($6) Bench - Jamaal Williams ($1) Bench - Hunter Henry ($1) This poo poo got crazy! Kickers and defenses were going for more than a dollar. Someone bid $13 for Matt Bryant. What do you guys think?

Buffalo is the closest city with an NFL team so I kind of feel obligated to root for the Bills, but it's just so hard. Every year I change the super bowl # in my fantasy team name 'BUFFALO BILLS SB 52 CHAMPS' in the hopes that this will be the year but the joke isn't really funny anymore. My lone solace is that at least I'm not a Jets fan.

i think i just did an auction draft with coma patients. (10 teams, $200 budget) QB: Russel Wilson ($8) WR: Allen Robinson ($17) WR: Michael Crabtree ($16) WR: Martavis Bryant ($10) RB: David Johnson ($75) RB: Demarco Murray ($41) TE: Tyler Eifert ($11) DEF: Minnesota ($1) K: Mason Crosby ($1) QB: Phillip Rivers ($1) WR: Emmanuel Sanders ($5) WR: Pierre Garcon ($3) RB: Bilal Powell ($5) RB: Mark Ingram ($5) TE: Zach Ertz ($1) I started out thinking I wouldn't' get any good receivers and then Robinson and Crabtree fell into my lap back to back and then man how the gently caress did I get Ertz for a dollar? edit: three guys ended the draft with $12, $20, and $27 dollars each, and another guy dropped to only being able to bid $1 after just 5 roster slots. despite all of those facts, someone spent $6 on Justin Tucker.

Did a draft today, picked 9th out of 10, standard league. Matt Ryan (5) Freeman (1) Montgomery (4) Coleman (8) McFadden (10) Samaje Perine (14) A.J. Green (2) Michael Thomas (3) Cooks (6) D. Jax (9) Decker (11) Delanie Walker (7) O.J. Howard (15) NE D/ST (12) and Wil Lutz (13) I don't think I did too bad, probably invested too much in Atlanta's offense though.

Given this team in a half PPR format: QB: Andrew Luck RB: Todd Gurley, Theo Riddick, Thomas Rawls, James White, DeAndre Washington, CJ Prosise WR: Julio Jones, Amari Cooper, Stefon Diggs, Emmanuel Sanders, John Brown TE: Travis Kelce Would you burn the #4 preseason waiver pick to drop your DST for Rex Burkhead? What about any of these other players: RB: Chris Thompson, Charles Sims, Shane Vereen, Dion Lewis, D'Onta Foreman, James Connor, Alfred Morris, Jonathan Williams WR: John Ross, Kevin White, Robert Woods, Breshad Perriman, Mohamed Sanu, Torrey Smith, Devin Funchess, JJ Nelson, Nelson Agholor Alternatively I could wait until Tuesday in the hopes that nobody puts in a waiver claim for Burkhead. Thoughts?
