Tiptoes posted:Long term, I like Kittle much more than Eifert. He's an iffy play in Week 1 but I like his chances to be one of Jimmy G's main targets. But it's hard to recommend him in Week 1. And I wouldn't drop John Brown for him. I like Brown as well (until he gets hurt, then you can cut him). I'd be tempted to drop Golladay instead (but my lack of belief in Detroit's #3 receiver is a minority opinion). I'm hearing a lot of discussion that Golladay could be good enough to be the #2.

Tiptoes posted:Maybe, but that feels very bold to me and people have hyped plenty of Detroit players in the past that haven't exactly panned out. I just don't think Jones or Tate are going to slip this year so then Golladay needs an injury to become what people what him to be. As it stands now, he's just a WR3 to me and those can be found throughout the season. He's available too.

The drop-off between those RBs and the later round RBs/QB2s is substantial, imho as someone who is also in a low-man league. Not requiring a TE opens your 4th or 5th to a good QB pick.

Normally i wouldn't think about that trade too much, but i'm looking at having to drop someone to pick up a kicker in the next few days if i can't work out a trade. I'm just considering this trade as it'd solidify my streaming TE position and i wouldn't have to drop any of my WR/RB players and can just drop Ebron. Also imo my entire bench is flex worthy i think, so it might help with no having to decide between so many. But yea the cost may be too much.

Weeks 1-3 were good, then you're looking at mostly scoring points solely from points per catch, outside of one game he took his sole catch for 70 yards and another he rushed for 80. sourdough fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Sep 3, 2018 |

14 teams, 0 PPR, 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, RB/WR/TE flex, K, DST. Normal point values otherwise (aside from defense but it's mostly the same) QB: Alex Smith ($3) RB: Dalvin Cook ($55) RB: Christian McCaffrey ($49) WR: Chris Hogan ($23) WR: Michael Crabtree ($17) TE: Jimmy Graham ($10) FLEX: Derrick Henry ($31) DEF: Arizona Cardinals ($1) K: Harrison Butker ($1) BEN: Jared Goff ($1) BEN: Latavius Murray ($4) BEN: C.J. Anderson ($3) BEN: Calvin Ridley ($1) BEN: James Washington ($1) For a 14 team league I'm pretty stoked. WRs could be better but I'm thinking there are gonna be a lot of available guys this season. Was happy to get two handcuffs for my main starting RBs. Wasn't planning on spending $10 on a tight end but I'm not too down on that slot.

Oh man just got done with my big money PPR auction draft and I am feeling psyched about this team. 2 FLEXs and 8 bench spots so I had to dig deep too. QB: Cam Newton ($6) RB: Kenyan Drake ($31), Sony Michel ($7), Chris Carson ($5), Theo Riddick ($1), Kenneth Dixon ($1), Boston Scott ($1) WR: Odell Beckham Jr ($51), Stefon Diggs ($31), Alshon Jeffery ($8), Jamison Crowder ($7), Chris Godwin ($4), Courtland Sutton ($1), Tre'Quan Smith ($1) TE: Rob Gronkowski ($42), Eric Ebron ($1) D: Cardinals ($1) K: Chris Boswell ($1) Running Back Doesn't Matter.

I just honestly got tired of him being in my roster and only getting to really enjoy a handful of games amid the more frequent lulls. Things could obviously change but he’s going to compete against Gurley and Cupp for looks, two guys Goff likely will favor. I thought for sure in NO and NE that he would be leveraged more than I expected.

I don’t know when waivers process but try to wait until the last minute, since LVB has until Wednesday to sign his tender. Hopefully he does it tomorrow but likely he will wait until Wednesday. I would drop Mack as there’s a good possibility you’ll be able to pick him back up afterward. Cohen would more likely be scooped up by then and his usage in CHI could be very interesting.

Hand Row posted:Any low ADP depth receivers you guys are targeting this year? One area I haven't been happy about. Stills, Keelan Cole, Hurns are not facing much competition in their offenses but their QBs are suspect. Still, their potential of being “the guy” is fantasy-relevant. John Brown is at the bottom of this group but still worthy of consideration; Flacco can chuck it deep. John Ross and Courtland Sutton are more of your guys that are athletically gifted but face downward pressure in the form of target hogs in front of them and mediocre QBing.

I am all over Courtland Sutton at the end of my drafts. He has WR1 traits, balled out all camp/preseason, will play starter-level snaps on the outside, and his competition for targets are two 30+ receivers and no TE. Large catch radius and great target for 50/50 balls so I think he leads the team in TDs and has the best season of any rookie WR.

I have the 9th pick in a 10 person keeper league with a decent bit of money in it, standard scoring, has both a flex and super flex. I already have: Hopkins Wentz D. Henry - lowest ranked RB keeper, but good round value at least In the top 20 of each position, 9 RB, 4 WR, and 8 QB are kept (along with Ertz, Kelce, and random players below top 20). The top 7 picks are the 5 remaining upper tier RBs, Rodgers, and Brown, so before my first pick figure 14 RB are gone. I have no 4th or 5th round pick, so I am guessing that will make it difficult to get a solid WR2 or a rookie RB like Freeman. I am mainly concerned with picks 9, 12, and 24, since it will be difficult to plan for what happens past that. I am assuming the best players available that I might have a chance at are: RB: D. Freeman Mixon Collins Drake Rookies WR: J. Jones Beckham Allen Green M. Thomas Quite a few actually QB: Wilson Watson Brees Newton Rivers Luck Roethlisburger Not much you want to start below this TE: Gronk This league is super unpredictable, some years no worthwhile QBs are left by the end of the 3rd round, other times a bunch last really late. By ADP the best players available are WR or Gronk, but I have no idea what QBs or RBs will be available by the end of the 3rd or 6th round. I am equally torn between RB/RB/QB, WR/RB/QB, or Gronk+? With Wentz out I feel more pressure to get my second QB early and I will probably need to draft a 3rd at some point. If I could get someone like Royce Freeman in the 3rd I would probably go with something like Jones, Wilson/Watson, in the 1st and 2nd, but there are 11 picks between my 2nd and 3rd and it seems fairly plausible that he will be taken. Anyone have any thoughts?

I am filled with irrational exuberance. Pull me off this cloud with tough goon love and biting invective. 10-teamer, .5 ppr, one keeper, picked 9th overall: QB: Stafford (10th) RB: K. Hunt (2nd) RB: A. Collins (3rd) WR: Hopkins (1st) WR: Thielen (4th) Flex: Burkhead (6th) TE: Evan Engram (8th) D/ST: LAC (12th) BE: Mark Ingram (K) (susp.) BE: Josh Gordon (5th) BE: Alshon Jeffrey (7th) BE: Crowell (9th) BE: Stills (12th) BE: RSJ (14th) BE: Alex Smith (15th) IR: Guice (13th) My best-case scenario occurred, which was to have Hopkins falling to me.   love watching that guy play for me. Although we each kept a player, I drafted as if Mark Ingram were not on my team and am pleased with my starting stable and depth. I swore myself off of Crowell after being a believer for years, but the starting big-man RB on any team has fantasy value in the 9th. There’s some WR uncertainty + upside; with Thielen (undetermined leg injury) Josh Gordon, and Alshon (injured shoulder, no setbacks, nearing return), but I’d like to think I can weather the early storm and didn’t handicap myself towards early season losses. At TE, Engram will have the concussion specter looming all season so I took a flier on RSJ after missing out on Kittles. Stafford as my QB I’m fine with. Instead of trying to guess which receiver is coming out on top this season, I’d get my piece of this offense by way of the QB. My nemesis bit on JAX in the 9th. It would be nice to have a set-and-forget D/ST but I probably would have missed out on them anyway.
