Looks like the Steelers O-linemen have started talking about their discontent with Bell also. https://twitter.com/EdBouchette/status/1037428010444619776 https://twitter.com/EdBouchette/status/1037434005761798146 https://twitter.com/EdBouchette/status/1037437763036106753 I'm still grabbing him if he drops to the 2nd half of the 1st today, but man i'm thinking i'm taking AB84 if he's available wherever i am, hasn't failed me yet.

The constant back and forth especially with his teammates is going to make it harder for him to show up.

Those guys should chat with their union reps because what they are doing to Bell is... not great for their own long-term interests in re labor vs. management.

Throwing him under the bus for trying to use his extremely limited leverage to get even a moderately appropriate contract for his skills. Siding with management, crossing the union, other chud rear end poo poo.

Me in a way in a third. Three out of four leagues I have Bell. I never turned down DJ or Zeke in any of them, though. I did turn down Gordon, Kamara and Saquon, though. I mean...as I should have. As logic would tell me to. Holy poo poo do I wish I had one of those guys now, though

Still have my draft tomorrow night. 2QB, 0.5 PPR, keeper league. I essentially have picks #6, and #9. Badly in need of an RB. Do I take Bell with either of those picks or go for someone like Hunt, CMC, or Gordon?

I can't tell you to take Hunt because I'm too big a homer who believes he will run all over the entire league with how spread out the defenses will have to be to account for MahomesToHillWatkinsKelce but may I at least recommend that only one of those guys led the NFL in rushing his rookie year?

CapnAndy posted:In a keeper league I'd be really tempted by Saquon Barkley if you can get him. He will likely be gone with one of the first few picks, but if he is I'd gladly grab him. My keepers are Michael Thomas (14th Rd) and Josh Gordon (9th Rd). Guys on the board that will be available for my first two picks: RBs - Bell - Barkley - Hunt - CMC - Gordon WRs - Brown - OBJ - Julio - Hopkins QBs - Rodgers - Wilson - Newton

yourdadsbestfriend posted:On an different note, what are all your strategies for auction drafts? I've done a couple in the past few days after never really doing them before, and found myself almost accidentally going studs and duds both times: I spent maybe 90% of my budget on my starting RBs and WRs and filled the rest of the slots with cheap options. Do y'all usually find more success with that strategy, with a more balanced team, or something completely different? Thanks! Generally, in Auction, I’m dead set on a handful of “my guys” and if one of them comes up early I’ll get him, even if I slightly overpay. After that, I basically just put top guys that i don’t want or need up for bidding when it’s my turn to nominate. That way other people get into bidding wars and bleed their money, so that I have money to get my mid-tier guys. You can also usually get good value on mid-tier guys 1/3 way through the draft when other people are worried about splurging for that last big piece.

Serious lottery ticket, but RB Jaylen Samuels has TE eligibility on Yahoo. If Leveon misses any time, you never know. He's a last round kind of pick anyway.

Just finished my last draft and also my big money league. 12 team .5 PPR and we start 3WR and a flex. I picked 11th so went WR/WR and so my RB's are very very ugh. Also took Ebron pretty late hoping he either gives me something solid or i just stream. QB Rodgers RB Marshawn Lynch RB Tevin Coleman WR Julio Jones WR Odell Beckham WR Larry Fitzgerald TE Ebron FLEX Brandin Cooks K Bryant DEF Rams BN Chris Thompson BN Peyton Barber BN Bilal Powell BN Rishard Matthews BN Tyrell Williams Thoughts? I'm hoping my quad core of starting WR's and Rodgers will be enough to pull me through. Heres to hoping Chris Thompson is cool and good again

I think Baldwin is going to play 2/3 a season at best. Olsen is washed up and I think round 5 is way too early for most TEs, let alone Olsen, and I am a former Olsen fanatic. Jeffrey is another potentially higher-risk choice. I think this is a pretty average fantasy team in the end.

How do you guys feel about Mike Evans? I like him as a player but I'm wary of starting him without Jameis at QB. I have JuJu sitting on my bench and my gut is telling me to start JuJu instead but my gut has burned me before...

Obviously I disagree about the evaluations on the players, but I do agree with the risk assessment. I like high upside, because I think it's easy to fix most issues on the waiver wire. I'm not worried about Baldwin. He's supposed to play week one and has been quietly consistent his entire career. I also don't think Olsen is washed up, but I suspect you were an Olsen owner last year.  I think I agree. Not feeling this draft.
