how much does the luck situation affect Hilton's ranking? I've got a keeper draft in a little bit and it looks like at my pick my best option will be one of him, hopkins, DMT, or fournette

Yea but it's also a keeper league and can't be compared to the goon fish bowl really, so that plays a huge factor since most other teams in the league will be keeping their QB's. Noted by him saying his likely QB availables at 8th overall are the Andy Dalton and Eli Manning of the worlds.

Is there a scenario where justification can be made at the #5 pick in a 0.5 PPR 10 man (typical lineup) that..... Tom Brady is worth that 2.05 pick? Dude at the last pick isn't gonna let him go past him. But, I'm starting to like the idea of: Shady or Julio Brady Gronk As my first 3 picks. I've alllllllways waited on QB, but, I mean.. Perhaps It sounds ridiculous. But I totally see Brady easily throwing 50 TDs this year. I mean, I know Edelman is hurt. But Cooks got added, Chris Hogan is already another deep threat. Gronk is Gronk. Dwayne Allen ain't bad either and they plan on using a 4 RBBC...and 3 of them are 3rd down pass catching RBs. The only knock on that is that the Patriots tend to run in the redzone. 89 fucked around with this message at 01:50 on Aug 29, 2017 |

No, Tom Brady won't "easily" throw 50 touchdowns, a total he's hit once. The "only knock" is that you're giving up a buttload of value wasting a mid 2nd on any QB in a 10 teamer of all leagues. Everyone waits on QB in 12 team because the value just isn't there, and the value is even more not there in 10.

12 team, 0 PPR, 6 PATD...I had to keep two players and drafted yesterday just before the Meredith injury...ended up with: QB - Brees WR - Hopkins WR - Sanders RB - Miller RB - Cook TE - Graham Flex - Powell BN - T. West BN - K. Britt BN - J. Matthews BN - J. Williams (SF) BN - Wentz Now I/R - Meredith (RIP) Stills, Kupp, White, Lockett, Beasley, R. Anderson, Perriman, Woods, and M. Lee are available. I should grab Stills to replace Meredith for now right? Also, should I drop J. Williams for Sproles, Gio, Richard, or C. Thompson?

Rodgers is easily ahead of him, and I'd rather have Brees too fwiw (but I'm probably in the minority there). But more importantly, even if you think Brady is #1, he's definitely not going to return value if you take him at pick 15 in a 10 team 1 QB league!

Well, I got the 10th pick in my .5 PPR 12 man draft, which I was not thrilled about. The draft proved my point as I was not seeing the players I wanted by the time i picked in most rounds. Here's what I wound up with: I went Rodgers/Kelce at the 3/4 turn which is pretty unconventional for me, but most players I liked in that range were gone. I got plenty of RB fliers but both Mcfadden and Jacquiz went earlier than I thought they would, so I couldn't pair them with Martin. I'm thinking about offering Derrick Henry for Quiz. Bad idea? I'm curious what you guys think about this draft--in mocks the later picks are where I've struggled to find a team I like the looks of.

Rick Grimes posted:Just did my first auction draft ever. I feel... meh about it. Had money left over at the end, I wasn't aggressive enough. The #1 thing that took me some adjustment from snake to auction was "don't go on tilt over arbitrary poo poo." It's shockingly hard, "I LET someone have a bargain when I could've bid on a guy I didn't need." Tilt, but it happens in literally 100% of drafts. "I ended up with money left over" TILT, but seriously what is more frustrating is ending up with less money than you need to get the guys you want. Yeah, you could've used that $14 for a tier upgrade at key positions, but I guarantee in a month you will have forgotten all about that. Now I ask myself "did I get 1-3 guys that I'm in love with, and wisely budget those remaining $s for guys I love but only at good value? Did I get good players at every position?" Well, everyone loves DJ, so you got that. $68 is pretty much market value, which is the best you can hope for in auction for tier 1a RB's. Did I get value for guys I kinda love? Did I fill out a team with good players? QBs: Check. RB's: You got starters. The strength of your bench depends on your settings. PPR + a third rb position (maybe flex)? Then you got enough to last you at least a month. Good enough. WRs: First of all, you don't need 6 unless you got extreme settings. Also K White for 5 is bizarre, this draft must have been among Chi-town fans. Or did I miss something and Meredith getting injured convince everyone that Kevin White isn't absolute booty? But Allen could easily stay healthy, in which case he'll probably be a WR1. Adams could blossom, if not you've got the steady floor of landry. TE: Eifert. Gonna get you a great score every-other week until he gets injured. So-so Overall, I'd give this a 10-team-league B-. 80/100. 12 teams a B, maybe 83 /100. 14 team, B+ Just watch the wire to round out your skill positions, and I wouldn't be surprised if this made the playoffs.

Thanks for the breakdown though. I've just done Snake drafting forever, figured I'd give it a shot when I was asked to join.

Just helped my wife draft for her league with her friends and am wondering how we did. This is Yahoo standard, 10-team non-ppr with 1 flex spot. Team Name: Kaepture the Flag QB: Matt Ryan RB: Devonta Freeman, Jay Ajayi, Carlos Hyde, Ameer Abdullah, Doug Martin WR: Doug Baldwin, Jamison Crowder, Stefon Diggs, Pierre Garcon, Kenny Britt, Erick Decker TE: Tyler Eifert DEF: Baltimore K: Brian McManus I think she did pretty well but may have overdone it on the RB's early? We just didn't like the receivers available and some solid RB's were dropping. The receivers she did grab have some really good upside I feel and she doesn't need anything special from them. Would appreciate some thoughts.

Pretty good, don't worry about going overboard on RBs, every time I think I have I've actually come up short on them. But your starting three are great, and your bench can potentially be trade bait for upgrades at WR. QB is solid, TE is solid albeit injury prone. WRs, Baldwin's a middle-low WR1, Crowder is a WR2, but I feel like one of your bench is going to blow it up - I like all of them as good gambles. K is eh,, Defense you may want to look into streaming weekly against weak offenses, as Baltimore may be struggling this year, and no matter how good a defense is, if their offense is turning the ball over repeatedly or not scoring, the other team is going to do stuff.

QB/2RB/2WR/TE/3FLEX(wr/rb/te) - Salaries go up 10% or $1 (whatever is higher) each year. $250 salary cap from here on out. QB- Luck $12, Rivers $1, Manning $1 WR- Amari Cooper $28, DeAndre Hopkins $24, Demaryius Thomas $19, Alshon Jeffrey $19, Michael Crabtree $15, Kelvin Benjamin $9, Sterling Shepard $3, Robby Anderson $2, Cole Beasley $1 RB- CJ Anderson $10, Mark Ingram $10, Ty Montgomery $9, Jonathan Stewart $2, Duke Johnson $5, Rex Burkhead $3, James Conner $2, Giovani Bernard $1, Dion Lewis $1, Alfred Morris $1, Chris Thompson $1 TE- Travis Kelce $19, Hunter Henry $2 I went all in on WR2's and discount RB's. I regret spending $12 on Luck, but having a star QB for the indefinite future should be nice. (Once he's healthy) Please tell me how badly I hosed this up!

Here's where I landed - 3rd pick snake, 12 team, 0 ppr, standard scoring otherwise QB: Aaron Rodgers RB1: LeSean McCoy RB2: Marshawn Lynch WR1: Allen Robinson WR2: Tyreek Hill TE: Tyler Eifert Flex: Dalvin Cook D/ST: Cardinals K: Will Lutz BE: Robert Kelley BE: Tyrell Williams BE: Eric Ebron BE: Kevin White BE: Marvin Jones BE: Jordan Matthews BE: Jamaal Charles I'd say WR is my weakest group again this year, just like my past three seasons. I had the opportunity to set it up nicely late in the second round, but I couldn't pass up the Rodgers pick that late. My league is mostly hometown friends who aren't too serious into Fantasy, but they've definitely been getting better every year. I had some ridiculously stacked RB groups the last three years cause folks were drafting WRs like we were playing PPR. We'll see if they've wised up enough to end my reign of terror over this league.

In my 14 team league, .5PPR, QB 2RB, 2WR, TE, W/R/T flex, K, IDP I got an interesting offer. Derrick Henry for DeSean Jackson. Currently I have: RB: Freeman, Fat Rob, Henry, Duke Johnson, Rawls, Kamara WR: Hilton, Tate, Adams, Marvin Jones, Lockett, John Ross I've been regretting drafting Marvin Jones ever since and I feel like I can kick him to the curb. On the other hand, RBs are not particularly deep.

Question on pick trading in a 12 team standard league no keepers. I've been offered: the 16th (2nd) and 62nd (6th) picks for my: 8th pick and 104th (9th). That's obviously not remotely worth it, but what should I counter offer? I'd think a first is worth an early second, and he has two. He's obviously trying to low ball. Should I even trade back here to try and add value in the draft? Would two additional seconds plus a swap of picks late make up for the loss of Melvin Gordon or Mike Evans in the first round? I doubt he'd go for it, but I'm not sure I should even offer it.

Holy hell. It took over 4 and a half hours. I really don't think you hosed up at all. I've not done dynasty until this year (took over a previous team) and I've never done a startup draft so I don't know how that compares. Only thing I would have done is gone a bit younger with some of my picks, especially with RBs. You have some older players there in JStew and Ingram. Your TEs are awesome. Having those WRs is loving fantastic. I think having Luck is great. I don't know if you've overpaid for him, but he'll set you up for a couple of years. Personally, I would have grabbed a rookie QB instead of Manning - like Kizer or Watson. I've got Luck and Dalton in my dynasty league and I grabbed Kizer (I'm also gunning for the worst team this year so I can get the #1 pick again).
