DOES NOT RESPECT THE RUN

BUT THEY WILL
If they're ruled out you can sometimes move them to IR to clear space, depending on the settings for your league.

Not on Yahoo. You can still drop bench players who have played for someone fresh I believe.

On Yahoo and NFL.com you can drop anyone from your bench even if their game has already been played

I think you'd likely be fine with just Rodgers and the Packers D but that's a tough one. Hopefully Kittle just plays.

Would you guys trade Tevin Coleman for John Brown or Crabtree?

Got approached by the Freeman owner offering one of them, even with Freeman constantly out, i'm not sure i wanna keep starting Coleman as he's almost cost me a couple of wins by putting up lame scores when i started him and him getting throughly outscored by RB's on my bench.


1 PPR we start 2RB/2WR/FLEX

RBs are Saquon Barkley, Dalvin Cook, Alex Collins, Tevin Coleman, Corey Clement, and Nyheim Hines
WRs are Hopkins, Thielen, Brandin Cooks, and Sanu.


Most weeks i'm starting Hopkins, Thielen, and Cooks at flex. Sanu is my only bench WR and he just got hurt, so i'd like to get some more depth there possibly.

I’m trying to get Josh Gordon in my dynasty league. His salary is $2 (out of $250), what is a fair offer for him? I offered a 2nd round pick, but the owner said he wouldn’t let him go for anything less than a 1st. Is that too much? I have two 2019 1sts this year so I can swing it.

That sounds like too much. I think a 2nd is fair. Maybe a 2nd and 3rd or 4th.

Good lord. I'm amazed that I'm hangin' tough in the league where my first two picks were Bell and Freeman. What a mess.

I almost wish I got Bell over DJ since I would have for sure drafted Conner and would be more confident with my team. In fact wish I drafted anybody that went 1st round in my DJ league except for Lenny lol.

What are rookie salaries? Where are those 1sts projected? Can you use then on FA vets cut due to salary? I think you missed the boat on getting him for a 2nd, could've done that right when he left Cleveland or before he'd stepped on the field for New England maybe. He's almost certainly still a good value if the cost is a late 1st rookie only pick, especially since the salary must if anything be a little higher. Next year's class is supposed to be a bit weak anyway.

Even in fairly deep IDP leagues, I think you shouldn't value them too highly year to year. Better to sell studs and scoop up players that emerge in the off season or early in the year. So many top guys are available for free even in leagues with 3-4 starters at each position.

Rookie salaries range from $18-$13 in the first round, I have one 1st that should be a lottery pick and another that should be #7-10. Yes you can use them on cut FA’s.

"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

General Message to that guy who keeps sending me lovely trade proposals:

i'm aware that I'm sitting at the bottom of our league, which may make you make some assumptions about my general ability

but why in gently caress's name would i trade a top 5 RB and a top 5 WR and a top 10 TE for Gronk and three garbage dudes? Even the Yahoo trade evaluator shows that it's clearly hilariously lopsided in your favor.

(the kicker: when I proposed a reasonable trade, my Brown/McCaffery for his Gurley/AJ Green, he responded with something just as garbage, so I responded with a terrible trade proposal of my own and told him politely to gently caress off)

I'd probably still consider it, but being able to use it on FAs makes those 1sts much more valuable than I'm used to. I guess I'd pass if you estimate there'll be a couple stud FAs that get cut, since that'll mean you'll get them way below market value, right?

I was in a league where the GM and the bottom of the league guy tried this. I got kicked out for calling out their collusion horseshit and the league voted down the trade.

So dumb story

Back in 2013 in my main league I was in the first round of the playoffs (week 15) and I'm up by 2.6, and Justin Tucker goes and kicks a 61 yard field goal to beat both the Lions and me (which was appropriate as I was starting both Stafford and Megatron that game). "gently caress Justin Tucker" becomes a general motto.

I haven't been back to the playoffs since.

I didn't face off against Justin Tucker in 2014, but I lost my matchups against him in 2015, 2016, and 2017. This week I was against him and was in a 40 point hole after Saquon and Clement tore it up on Thursday and just wrote off the week as yet another stop on the Justin Tucker Express Train to the Fucktomb. But somehow I won, for my first victory of the season in that league, and I feel way more relief than any human should from fantasy sports. HE IS FINALLY DEAD AND I AM FREE.



sup Knocked Out of the 2013 Playoffs Because Justin Tucker Outscored Megatron buddy.

I got my revenge game against him last year in the playoffs, but I played against him on the only undefeated team in one of my leagues this week, and it was great to see him only dribble in 3 xps while Matt Bryant sacrificed what's left of his career to put in a 50+ yarder, helping me win.
