This doesn't make very much sense from a football perspective. Maybe Williams has personal issues. He beat a DUI charge last year.

Or maybe it's as simple as "LOL Bills"

Half PPR, numbers in parentheses are how many start.

QB (1): Carr, Luck
RB (2-3): Gurley, Rawls, Prosise, Burkhead, Riddick, White
WR (3-4): Julio, Cooper, Sanders, Diggs, Brown
TE (1-2): Kelce

Who would you drop for a DST?

Alternatively trade one of your QBs and a WR/RB for an upgrade at WR/RB

From the look of things, it seems like the Bills are just casting off anyone brought in by the prior coaches/front office and completely rebuilding. And really, when your RB room already includes two FBs and Taiwan Jones, why would you even need Jonathan Williams?

Flip Luck and another bench player in a 2:1 deal for an upgrade, freeing up a roster slot for your D/ST. Or drop Luck, he's missing game 1 probably and the colts just can't not rush his injury anyway and you can just waiver a QB in week 10 for the Raider's bye, I'm sure by then one of your other players will have died.

e. Convince another owner to roster Luck + Palmer

Lewis is a better player than people think but for fantasy purposes this backfield has "monumental pain in the rear end" written all over it and nobody is going to be an every-down back there. There is no "winning the job".

Just did a snap draft on Yahoo, had the last pick, I think it turned out pretty well...



So someone in this league drafted Brady and Brees for some reason (1 QB league). I'm trying to get 1 of them plus Jimmy Graham from him.

Is an offer of CJ Anderson/Mariota/Ertz fair for Graham/Brees?

So I haven't done a redraft in a few years and only focused on my dynasty league but I think this draft went pretty well. Maybe a bit too many young lottery tickets, but overall I'm pretty happy.

14 teams, 1PPR. I was 4th pick.
QB: Stafford(9)
WR: Brown (1), Hopkins (3), Diggs (5),Golladay(11), John Ross(13)
RB: Powell(4), West (6), Coleman(7), Johnson Jr(8), Kamara(10), Breida(14)
TE: Gronk(2), Doyle(12)

D/K: whatever in the last two rounds

He drafted both for this exact reason. I unfortunately know a lot of people who do the "draft 2 plus elite qbs " strategy to try and rob someone in a trade. It almost never works imo

Yeah, protocol is to wait like a week or two for the owner to realize that no one is going to give him fair value, then lowball him

Also most likely if the dude has 2 top 5 QB's any trade involving you sending back a QB is useless.


He'd be wanting to get rid of one for WR/RB help, not wanting to swap that one out for another QB probably.

Off the bat you probably should've grabbed a RB instead of taking Mariota, your RB's behind Demarco are horrible, WR's are solid, probably didn't need to take a 2nd TE either and once again needed more RB help.

Hyde. Hunt, Cook, and to an extent even Fournette have been so overhyped this year, but I suppose that is the way of fantasy. I remember when Montee Ball was rated 6th overall in standard and "a locked in RB1" who was going to score 20 TDs.

Kareem Hunt to me looks like a JAG on film, and Charcandrick West could absolutely take Hunt's job if Hunt falters at all (plus Spiller is back). People forget that West did a good job taking over for Jamaal Charles before West got hurt himself and Spencer Ware took over. Dalvin Cook is a better football player than Hunt, but he's on the Vikings, who have a terrible O-Line and will be a bad team this year, and he isn't a great pass protector, and has Latavius Murray behind him. Leonard Fournette should be good if his foot is ok, but he seems like a guy they will take out of the game as a precaution if the Jags are totally out of the game, which is probably going to happen a lot. Ivory and Yeldon are more than capable of playing garbage time minutes.

I wouldn't want any of them as my RB1, and even as an RB2, you're looking at guys like Isaiah Crowell, Carlos Hyde, Lamar Miller; proven starters with a track record of at least RB2 production. Cook or the other rookies haven't proven anything yet.
