I think Butker is good this week, but next week Elliot plays Oakland which has given up the most K points. I dropped Elliot for Coon in one league and Elliot for Butker in another. Don’t trust him now without Wentz to move the ball.

Thanks, it's probably not super important since they're just kickers but the unknown of Foles should be concern enough to sway me to Butker.

For these new ratings, go to any league and hit "my team" It'll be there at the top. IT's the same no matter what league. 852 Who has the most wins? I have 247, but I've been on Yahoo for 17 years so it's not that impressive

We ban the teams out of the playoffs from making moves and if they do it, the commissioner will just flip it back. Play all the consolation games you want with whatever roster you had, but you aren't affecting the teams in the playoffs playing for $$. Between 3 leagues 7 moves have been flipped back if the rosters can't be locked from add/drops.

Yeah, I generally like Yahoo. Not my favorite draft, but autosaving lineup changes is real nice.

# ? Dec 13, 2017 22:53 |

I think you have to manually lock teams on Yahoo from making moves even if you have "lock eliminated teams" checked, because it still allows the consolation bracket to make moves. It's annoying.

Yahoo is ugly, poorly designed (though frankly that's a 'feature' of all fantasy leagues) and incredibly slow due to the terrible ads they run. My computer regularly crashes when I spend a reasonable amount of time on my yahoo leagues. I have no issues anywhere else.

Fat Lowtax posted:This bugs me out every time I remember it: why are teams in the Yahoo "consolation bracket" allowed to make roster moves that might affect the playoffs? I can't make any money for finishing 5th place in this pub league, so why let me play, I lost. ESPN leagues here, but my two leagues allow it because there is a "Sacko" trophy and will be punishments (we have to meet to discuss those). But they can't make waiver claims. They have to wait until waivers process or the LM drops the players they attempt to pick up. Haven't had any issues last week or today.

If you started with Yahoo, you hate ESPN (because it's wildly different and you're lost trying to do anything). If you started with ESPN, you hate Yahoo (for exactly the same reasons). This is how people always react with obtuse, horrible user interfaces: it's the root of the ancient vi vs. emacs debate, for example. All fantasy football websites have horrifyingly terrible user interface designs. I'd say that's a huge business opportunity, except I don't think hosting fantasy football leagues is a money-making proposition... even MFL which charges for leagues probably doesn't make much, and oh by the way, it's UI is mind-bogglingly bad, especially when setting up nonstandard leagues (which is the only reason to use MFL in the first place).

I actually started on ESPN and pretty much made every one of my leagues switch to Yahoo after I used it for a work league. I actually prefer ESPN for baseball though. Yahoo has a better draft interface than ESPN in both sports, though. ESPN's whole interface feels very dated now.

I have the Chargers D but ATL, DET, and ARI are available. I don't think rolling with the chargers this week seem like a good idea, maybe lions at home? I also have AJ Green and don't know what to do. He is clearly a DSYS and the only people I have to replace him are Dede Westbrook and Corey Coleman. So ugh to that I guess.

Why does it seem like people are talking up Derrick Henry this week? I keep looking for a Murray injury update. Sure the matchup against the 49ers is great, and I'd love to trust him in it, but that seems way too risky for the semi finals.
