Here's my poo poo show team from that same drunken auction draft as Alfalfa and Catfish Noodlin.

QB Marcus Mariota $7
RB Le'Veon Bell $75
RB DeMarco Murray $48
RB/WR Ameer Abdullah $7
WR Keenan Allen $20
WR Martavis Bryant $7
TE Tyler Eifert $4
D/ST Vikings $1
K Chris Boswell $1

BE Derrick Henry $7
BE Rex Burkhead $4
BE Paul Perkins $5
BE Thomas Rawls $5
BE Kenny Britt $3
BE Eli Manning $1
BE Tyrell Williams $3

Budget Remaining: $2

A solid team. Good at every position. You wisely went deep on RB, because if Abdullah doesn't pan out, you're one injury away from starting garbage. Also Britt and Williams are great safe plays to back up your dice roll WRs. Wow, I'm really impressed. A- 90/100. Would have been higher, but literally every one of your starters is an injury risk/got injured last year/is Martavis Bryant. Still an amazing draft, congrats.

I just had the weirdest draft. It's not at all the team I was targeting - crazy RB value kept falling to me and turned my whole strategy upside down. I managed to get Leveon Bell at #4. I actually had to force myself to stop drafting RBs because they kept falling to me over and over. Tried to load up on value WR's in the later rounds since that's my weak spot but the pickings were slim - missing out on a lot of my targets by a pick or two.

Thoughts? Did I overdo it at RB?

ESPN Standard 10-team


non-PPR? I think that's a really good team. WR might be a bit weak, but if it's PPR, then it should do really well. Love your RBs though. I'm really loving jealous.

Oh standard ESPN is PPR? Where you can pick the scoring it says Standard or PPR Standard so I don't think PPR is default. Our league is "Fractional" which is just "Standard" no-PPR with decimals.

Yeah, I think they changed the default league to .5 PPR. So while "Standard" still means no PPR the default league is now PPR. On the whole, I think you're team is pretty good, but I'd rather not have the extra TE and QB. The RBs are a definite strength but you're pretty iffy at WR.

Rivers is a good get. He looked really good in the last preseason game. If Keenan Allen stays healthy, that passing attack should be great.

Team looks good. I'm not sold on Fournette like others are, but you have good depth after him in Crowell, Abdullah, and Martin when he gets back from suspension. WRs are really good.

Yeah I wasn't sure about the extra TE when using the BeerSheets but his value was something like 1.6 and the best available RB/WR were 0.5. I figured that's because I can use the TE as Flex? I took the QB because all the RB/WR seemed the same and had negative value. I also already had 5 of each in those positions which seems like a lot.

I drafted Sproles late but I'm wondering if I should pick up Smallwood instead. Short benches but I went heavy receiver since my RB keepers were Bell and CJ. I need depth now. I have Jordan Matthews and Chris Hogan as my two droppable dudes. Is it worth holding onto both Eagles RBs to see how it shakes out? I have 1st waiver as well but I am saving that for emergency use only.

e: J Hill and Gio B are available too but I only want to gently caress with 1 bad pair of RBs

I wouldn't pass him up if he fell to me or if his cost in auction was a steal, but I'm not actively drafting him (I did in the Dynasty Free For All League because it's dynasty and maybe Jacksonville will one day unfuck themselves). I've seen several LSU games where they were talking him up and he didn't do dick.

I really hope I'm wrong though for the guys here that have him. Just not the week I play against him.

As an Eagles fan, hopefully Ezekie stupidface is banned for life.

But, if he gets this 6 game suspension reduced, I'm gonna be real pissed that he:

1. Had my first round picks get sniped one pick before me cause he wasn't in the 1st round anymore
2. Is owned by the same guys who drafted David Johnson or LeVeon Bell now :mad:

Any suggestions on who I should keep from this list? Standard Yahoo scoring, 12 teams.

Todd Gurley - 2nd
Rob Kelly - 12th
Marcus Mariota - 12th (if I keep both Kelly and Mariota one becomes a 11th)
C.J. Anderson - 10th

I can pick 3. I'm leaning towards letting Gurley go because I haven't been thrilled with him the last couple years, but there are a few guys with top RB keepers so I am not sure what will be out there in the second round.

D/ST - Texans
BE - Donte Moncrief

I'd keep Gurley, Mariota, and CJ Anderson. Gurley bounces back this year.

So, i remember I posted my draft results from my main league in here last year and everybody thought it was too good to be true. Because I'm obsessed and clearly out of my mind, I was just looking at those draft results (my picks):

Round 1: DeAndre Hopkins = BUST
Round 2: Jamaal Charles = BUST
Round 3: Brandon Marshall = BUST
Round 4: Russel Wilson = BUST
Round 5: Matt Forte = BUST
Round 6: Jeremy Maclin = BUST
Round 7: Delanie Walker = Good
Round 8: Larry Fitzgerald = Good

All I'm saying is, i might as well pick a kicker in the 3rd.

I was one game from getting into the playoffs.

This guy in my league REALLY wants me to trade him Kareem Hunt. He offered me Davante Adams or Michael Crabtree straight up for him, but I don't think that's enough.

What's a fair counter-offer? Or should I just stand pat with my team? Standard scoring, non-ppr.

My team:



His team:


Would Bennett & Crabtree for Hunt be enough? I'm not high on Bennett, and don't really mind streaming TE all year anyway, so I'm not sure.

What would be a fair 2-for-1 deal if I wanted to target his Freeman or Cooks?

I would hold them to see how the pecking order shakes out over the first couple of weeks. I would hate it if I traded Hogan as a WR3 and he ends up a WR1 or whatever.

When do teams have to designate players as on the IR? asking for my dynasty roster (own ware and meredith)

Leperflesh
May 17, 2007

A player can go on IR at any time.

But teams are probably trying to figure out their cut down to 53 and sticking guys on IR lets them keep someone they'd otherwise have to cut, so there's a strong incentive to designate IR before 4PM ET Saturday, which is the 53-man deadline. Also anyone on active PUP/NFI have to go onto IR PUP/NFI by then, or else count as active (part of the 53):

quote:

"Simultaneously with the cut-down to 53, clubs that have players in the categories of Active/Physically Unable to Perform or Active/Non-Football Injury or Illness must select one of the following options: place player on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform or Reserve/Non-Football Injury or Illness, whichever is applicable; request waivers; terminate contract; trade contract; or continue to count the player on the Active List."
