VietCampo posted:So I grabbed Forte late in my draft tonight and saw his note said that he was on the trade block and candidate for release? Well, he'd have to go somewhere where he'd have a chance of seeing the field at all, which is a little slim pickings at this point. Maybe Ravens, Eagles, Cowboys, Bucs, and Seahawks would be the only teams to give him half a chance, and out of those, you'd only want him if he went to the Cowboys or Bucs. I'd be amazed if he did anything FF worthy at this point. edit: supposedly he's likely to get cut later this week, due to the fact that his $4m salary is guaranteed, and no team is going to touch that via trade.

How do we think this situation in Buffalo is really going to affect Shady? I'm considering taking him with the #4 pick in my 10 man main league draft. I'm not gonna draft Beckham cause I think he's a bitch. I think Mike Evans is gonna regress. I'd almost consider Freeman. So, the next choice is Julio or even "reaching" for AJ Green. But, it wasn't that long ago that LeSean was my boy and he was a straight up monster last year. I'm not really considering Watkins a big loss, cause he missed most of the year last year anyways. I could see Jordan Matthews being a bigger boom to Tyrod Taylor's garbage time stats. I think the offense still runs through McCoy. But, he's 29 and his style isn't Frank Gore. Shady has also been BEAT UP the past couple of years. Mid season surgeries, constant sprains. I want him, but I'm starting to feel like his injuries are gonna pile up. And with the way things are going in Buffalo, Shady going down to injury just seems like something God is gonna do to the Bills this season after all of the offseason moves. Although, one benefit of McCoy is that his handcuff, Jonathan Williams, can literally be your last pick of the draft he's so cheap. 89 fucked around with this message at 07:49 on Aug 30, 2017 |

Buddy of mine can't make his draft tonight so has asked me to pick for him. Only problem: it's an IDP league (1LB, 1DB, standard scoring) and I've never drafted IDP before. What are some essential things I need to know? What's a good round to start targeting IDP players? Is it worth rostering more than one guy per position, or is it easy to stream guys week to week? The league is 16 team, if it matters.

Grab him Landon Collins and he can be happy. As far as when? 16 team league....that's a tough one. IDP wise, I'm getting the feeling Collins is kind of like the JJ Watt Unicorn of IDP this year.

You know, from the #5 spot in a 10 man league, it's totalllly possible to do draft LeSean or Freeman in the first round. And then still end up with a WR core of Baldwin, Landry, and Fitzgerald. Doesn't seem sexy. But if you look at the last 2-3 years of production, they are CONSISTENT as gently caress. Top 15 finishes each year. Grab ya a top tier TE. Load up on WR & RB depth. Grab ya a Winston or Mariota. You're good. Or maybe grab Brady in the 3rd or Gronk. who knows? I'm going crazy you guys.

12 man PPR1 keeper league advice please! I "lose" the draft pick of my keeper based on ADP and am trying to decide between Crabtree/BMarshall/Pryor. Any thoughts? I draft 9th and am hoping to snipe some guys a few picks up to make up for a bad draft last year. Edit : I could also keep Carlos Hyde.

Quick keeper question for y'all Standard 12 team PPR with no flex, trying to figure out my fourth keeper. Every team must keep four and they're your first four picks. I have AB, Evans, and Gurley as three, debating on Benjamin and Ingram for the fourth. I could also keep Reed but I want to get off that injury roller coaster.

Those rules make keepers a penalty for drafting poorly rather than a reward for drafting well. In a bubble I would go with Benjamin; I do not really like Ingram's situation at all and will not draft him anywhere, but I imagine 20 RB are being kept so there will not be much to draft and you already have 2 solid WRs and there are a ton of WR deeper down the ADP list that should be serviceable WR3s. Do you know your draft pick and how many usable RBs are left? If you could grab a rookie and Gore or Abdullah (just trying to think of guys not kept) then maybe you will not need Ingram.

89 posted:I'm going crazy you guys. We are well aware of this, sir. So after 45 minutes of going back and forth with my el cunado, I finally got a trade to go down. Get: Joe Mixon Nelson Agholor (don't really care about him) Give: Hunter Henry John Brown Jonathan Stewart I think it's a big win for me, especially after everyone here was talking him up. No idea why he was obsessed with Hunter Henry (he already had Ertz), but now he has him. I don't think Stewart is going to do much this year.

Unless the guy told you otherwise, you shouldn't really bother with an LB or DB til the last few rounds. You definitely shouldn't draft more than one. Let the rest of the league spend early picks on Kuechly and Kwon Alexander, you can scoop up the LB#15 or 20 and be totally fine. Definitely don't reach for a guy like Landon Collins, because with so few starters required in the league, you'll be able to get someone essentially for free that is competitive with every other team's DB.

Yeah, I've been pushing to allow people to not keep four for a while but people don't understand how much of an advantage the teams with better keepers have and it's a league I've been in for a while with people I don't get to talk to much anymore so I deal with it. I have the tenth pick and I'd say 20 is probably a pretty accurate estimate, though some people keep QBs which helps deepen the pool a little bit. I don't really expect Ingram to be available to me at my pick if I don't keep him, but I might be able to get one of the rookies or someone that wasn't kept and slipped under the radar. Or I could be cheeky and take Woodhead or Jacquizz

You definitely need a backup RB. Since you have Montgomery, the natural pickup would be Jamaal Williams. That said, we really don't know what the Packers' backfield will look like if Montgomery goes down. Conversely, none of the other options are particularly inspiring either. However, if you prefer to take a super long shot and think Bell misses some games this year, Connor is an option.

I was leaning Jamaal just for the reason of having Montgomery and RB not being the position he was drafted for. He's been a little banged up too.

If Ty goes down that backfield is going to be a mess that anyone should stay away from imo. Jamaal will not be the answer back there and you'll likely get a RBBC with Ripkowski, Jamaal, Aaron Jones, and Randall Cobb contributing.

I know we had a dude here that was considering keeping Snead for $12. I just read this from Adam Levitan from DraftKings. John Paulsen from 4for4 retweeted it. quote:Willie Snead’s Role is Unchanged from Last Year This might change as the season goes on, but I wouldn't keep Snead and wouldn't waste a mid round draft pick or more than $10 on him.

And I've got Ginn for $2 in dynasty and I'm happy with that, too, he has big upside and is a cheap keep. That said... my experience from the last several years of fantasy is that trying to read the tea leaves of preseason football usage is a fools' errand.
