His rookie season, where he only played 14 games, Gordon was competing with a healthy Woodhead as the main receiving back and still got 37 targets. Woodhead was better at it, and got 100+ targets. Gordon also just had a terrible season all around His sophmore year (same coach; woodhead injured), he got 57 targets, while missing 3 games; a 70 target pace, which would have made him the 8th most targeted RB - he was 15th instead. The backup RB got another 17. Zauper fucked around with this message at 14:59 on Sep 17, 2018 |

RoS: Ebron or Eifert for TE? I feel like I’m wasting roster space carry both. Watson or Tyrod for QB (or stream, maybe? see who’s on the wire?)

So i'm thinking about dropping Crowder after a couple weeks of doing diddly squat, is he worth holding onto? I had him last season when he basically was the same underwhelming fantasy player that was expected to be the top wideout on the Redskins. It's 1 ppr and i'm thinking of dropping him for like Geronimo Allison, Chris Godwin, or Callaway. Leaning heavily on Allison, although Callaway's usage is promising since Gordons gone. They'd all be stashes either way as i have Thielan, TY Hilton starting and Brandin Cooks on my bench already.

Forever_Peace posted:Big numbers mean "more open" (i.e. further distance from the nearest defender), and the black circle is league average. The only one above-average distance in both is TE Ricky Seals-Jones, who's usually "covered" by linebackers, had a bad drop week 1, and occasionally runs the wrong route (see: Bradfordception week 1). Got it. I understand what I did wrong; I was looking at it as if all l league receivers were being taken into account and didn’t realize the black circle was the league average.

I think people need to be careful with Ebron. Like Zauper mentioned, his snap count is pretty low. He's purely a TD play at this point. Probably still better than Eifert, so that's fine, but be prepared for the incoming stinkers from Ebron if his usage doesn't change.

I did a 2-for-1 trade before the season started and the drat commissioner let it sit there for the full time before it automatically goes through instead of just pushing it. The whole time I'm just waiting to add Breida and on the 3rd day of the trade pending someone else got him ffs

My friend is asking me for thoughts on her trade offers and she's considering sending AB84 for CMC + Emmanuel Sanders in a standard league. My initial reaction is definitely not as CMC loses like half his value just from being standard league. I think she's overly nervous because her only RB's are Lamar, Burkhead, and Ekeler, which is pretty gross currently. I'm not in any standard leagues this year so i'm not entirely sure. Thoughts?

A guy in my league needed 8 points from OBJ to win last night. He got 5 pretty quick, but midway through the game he starts sending group texts complaining about how terrible the Giants' line is and how he's worried about OBJ picking up the last three. The Giants' o-line is indeed trash, so we get to watch this guy melt down in the chat as OBJ ends up picking up 2.3 more points over the rest of the night. Then, on the final garbage drive, Beckham gets a decent completion and the guy goes up by like .25 points & fills the chat with braggy yapping about how he knew his boys would pull through. I wake up this morning, look at the chat, find out that he got hit with a 2-point stat correction, and lol a lot.

Update: Stuffs don't finalize on ESPN until the day after so literally everybody gets stat corrections on Monday morning and it is a nightmare. Update 2: I already dropped the Cards after week 1, thank gently caress.

I mentioned this last year, but one of my favorite parts of the fantasy season is the weekly write-up I do for my money league. It’s in the vein of an Onion Sports article, and I portray myself and my league mates as rich, high-profile owner-coaches who have to address reporters regularly. It’s fun developing “characters” for people, for example one guy Drafted McKinnon and Baldwin, and now he’s a safety nut who requires his players to wear life vests in the showers and use the buddy system when going to the bathroom. If your league doesn’t have something like this, I recommend you start one. I’m not the best comedy writer in the world, but I get texts every Tuesday morning with “Post that weekly, son!”

I really really REALLY hope this poo poo stops soon, but I at least won this week despite it.
