I'd take that trade. I get that Hunt isn't a sure thing, but either are Hopkins or Martin. I'd rather have Hunt.

If you're referring to my post I wasn't openly mocking you.

I'd rather have Hunt than Hopkins or Martin but Hopkins and Martin for Hunt is nuts.

You're crazy. He's giving up way too much for Hunt.

If I was going to give up Hopkins, I'd do Hopkins/Duke for Hunt/like his WR3.

If he gives up Hopkins AND Martin, he's getting taken out behind the shed.

Agreed. Hunt is far from the most talented rookie RB. He will do well given his cushy situation, but I think Hopkins bounces back this year and Martin will have a decent year post-suspension. No way I give up both.

It's not really a question of relying on Martin. It's just that that particular deal was TERRIBLE.

10 team PPR. Start 2 RB 3 WR 1 TE and 2 flex. Picked 3rd.

QB - Stafford (13)
RB - Gurley (2) Hunt (7) Gillislee (8) Duke (10) Riddick (11)
WR - Brown (1) Demaryius (4) Jeffery (5) Tate (6) Garcon (9) John Brown (12) Beasley (14)
TE - Gronk (3)
Chiefs D

I think it came out pretty good but I'm super reliant on Hunt being good. Or Gillislee being reliable. Little worried about Stafford too but there are some options on the wire.

Also thinking about ditching Beasley and picking up a defense for week 1 when the Chiefs have the Pats.

Is Buffalo really into a tanking situation like people make them out to be? Seems they are just shuffling some things around and acquiring draft picks while doing it.

Reason I wonder out loud, is cause of Shady.

I mean, let's look at it this way...

- Sammy Watkins hardly played last year and LeSean ATE while he wasn't playing
- Jordan Matthews is a significant upgrade over Robert Woods

The rest of the offense is the same . Although, there is a new OC, new coach, and they are swapping to a zone blocking scheme. Which has benefited Shady in the past (I believe the Eagles ran a zone blocking scheme in 2013 with Chip Kelly).

Yes but if he trades Hopkins and a lesser RB than Martin for Hunt and a WR3, he could play DJ/Hunt in his RB slots and Martin in the flex. I would do that all day.

I'm trying to figure out how to scrape data (a list of drafted players) from a live yahoo draft. Testing this is somewhat difficult since the only way to test it is to set up a live draft. Before I make a dummy league, does anyone know if it is possible for the same user to access the draft url twice? This isn't something there are a lot of github projects on and the only example I know of for live synch is FantasyPros, who don't make their code public.

We agreed on:

Hopkins

Duke

for

Hunt
Burkhead

I have to drop someone for a kicker anyway but I'll be keeping Martin.

I value Hopkins and Hunt equally, so I don't see why you also had to give up Tyrell. But I guess if you're really high on Hunt, then ditching Tyrell is an acceptable cost.

Not as bad as the previous offer, but that still wasn't good. I would have told him to gently caress off when he asked for another WR.

Eli was drafted in the SECOND ROUND.

It'd have to be a team in my main 14 team league where the guy overspent on Le'Veon, Beast Mode, and Gronk. Then he decided to raise the price on Cam and got stuck with him. Pretty sure he spent more than $1 each on his kicker and defense.

His roster:

QB - Cam
RB - Le'Veon
RB - Beast Mode
WR - Rishard Matthews
WR - Mohamed Sanu
TE - Gronk
Flex - Jared Cook
K - Lutz
D/ST - Texans
BN - Manning, Kaepernick, Torrey Smith, Tyler Lockett, Devin Funchess, James Conner, Marlon Mack

There's a guy in my 10 team standard scoring league who has 2 running backs on his roster.



I'm not sure what he expects to do after one of them misses time or during their bye weeks...

I'm always looking for WR flyers, especially in 1 PPR. Does Jermaine Kearse gain any more value now that he's a Jet?

I think he's the only WR on the Jets who has ever started anywhere. That's gotta be worth something. Probably more than Seattle where he's presumably behind Baldwin and Graham (and maybe Lockett). I, um, still wouldn't be running out for Jets WRs.

Couldn't have lost any value imo.

He was already behind Baldwin, graham, and essentially the 4th WR behind Lockett and Richardson. Their rookie Williams looked pretty good all preseason too.


He's also absolute garbage and don't roster him iyam.

Yeah the plan is never to start him. He'd be the last WR on my bench. I just like grabbing flyers and seeing if they pan out or flipping him to a WR needy team if he ever has a huge game. I'm in two 14 man leagues and there are some people that have terrible WRs.

I'm debating dropping Nelson Agholor for him, but I'll probably stand pat.

If your league gives you a billion points for WR blocks during run plays, then Kearse is your man. If your league relies on outdated things like catches or yards to provide points, then he probably isn't.
