You bet I was sweating those two missed 50 yarders from Zane Gonzalez in my nail biter close matchup this week. Sure, there’s some randomness involved with kickers and D/ST, but it can be fun depending on the league. I don’t care for them in dynasty where they take up space I’d rather spend on prospects to stash, but in redraft leagues, especially home leagues where you have long-time rivalries, they can be fun.

Kickers should be banned from all leagues, fantasy football scoring is random enough due to touchdowns, we don't need a random number generator on top of it. In my keeper league (10 teams, standard scoring, flex and Sflex) I am sort of rebuilding and looking for keeper value, but you only get keeper value from players you drafted, free agents are just kept at their ADP pre-draft next year. I have the second waiver pick these week and these RB are available: James Robinson Malcom Brown Nyheim Hines My RB and WR are: RB: A. Jones, Mixon, David Johnson, Dobbins, AJ Collins WR: Beckham, DJ Moore, Chark, Cooks, Lamb My 4th RB is fairly weak, but I can always play a WR at flex so I am not sure if I NEED one of those guys on the WW assuming none of them get hurt and Mixon gets more than 3 YPC in the future. Collins feels the most droppable for a redraft, but he might have keeper value for next year if Jones is not resigned since I grabbed him with the last pick and he is a handcuff for Jones this year. Then again if Dobbins is worth keeping it might not matter what Collins does since we can only keep 1 player per position. Is it too early to drop Beckham? He looked like garbage and his draft round was high enough that he does not have too much keeper value unless he becomes a WR1. Cooks is injured so I guess he can get a pass? Is it worth dropping one of those players to try and grab one? Ideally hoping that one of the later drafted RB (Dobbins or Collins) and one of the WR are worth keeping (5th, 6th, 7th, 9th, 10th round in order).

I'd drop Dillon for Hines definitely and maybe Brown. Hines is only 23 so he's still super young. Hines will be a receiving back in the NFL for a long time. The Packers are apparently in negotiations with Jones (which makes no sense because they spent a 2nd on Dillon). But they also have Jamaal Williams which they kinda like.

James Robinson looked legit in the Jags game. Saw this get linked that did a little bit of breakdown about why: https://twitter.com/MattWaldman/status/1305312127775838210 Also, if you are desperate for a WR, Keelan Cole may end up being the Jags #2 WR this year. He had constant buzz around him in camp, he had the second most targets in the game against the Colts, he is in a contract year, and I think he has looked super sharp.

Free agents have almost no keeper value since they are kept at their ADP next year vs drafted players who are kept at their drafted round. I agree all 3 of those players are more valuable than Dillon, I guess I am just not sure how often they would make the starting lineup assuming Jones, Johnson, and Mixon stay healthy. Even if I lose one I could just play a WR at flex. If the packers resign Jones than Dillon loses almost all value, I just assumed they had no plan to resign Jones to outside of some lowball offer.

There are two types of people. There are those who believe, despite all reason, that they can someone take the chaos of the world them and make sense of it and control it. And there are those who embrace the madness. kickers are fine

Sataere posted:kickers are fine  Honestly are kickers any worse than D/ST or TEs? Even the best defenses vary hugely from week to week. And TE's are trash who get you like 5 points a game unless you're lucky or you drafted one of the top 3 or 4 guys. I'd ditch either of those before kickers.

Kickers are more random because you can't actually predict when they'll score well. High scoring game? Too bad, your kicker's team was too good in the redzone and didn't need to kick a field goal. Offense was lovely and couldn't finish drives? Doesn't mean they didn't get in field goal range and kick 4 of em! Compare that to DSTs, where you can have some reasonable predictions about sacks and turnovers, or TEs, where you can identify teams that use or don't use theirs for pass catching and teams that do or do not defend against them well.

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:Hey this was my draft strategy this year. Except that Russel Wilson dropped farther than I ever expected in both drafts so I took him and uh, I dont think I'm going to regret it. yeah my point from earlier is that for each of these positions, beyond the top 1-3, the next ~10-15 are functionally equivalent before the season begins. the real variance comes in WR and to a lesser extent RB, and for different reasons - WR variance comes from there being so many of them, RB drop-off because there are so few. so get 1 QB/TE/K/DEF and get them late. QB and TE after round 6, K/DEF with the last two picks. every other pick should be WRs or RBs. most leagues allow you to start more WRs than RBs so I tend to keep an extra WR if the bench count is odd. bench spots are super valuable and you should not waste them on positions whose points don't change that much week to week. that means no backup QBs, TEs, Ks, or DEFs until the week your main guy is off. if your main guy sucks, get someone then. every week, make a decision whether to pursue the best WRs/RBs on the wire there are a vanishingly small number of players worth breaking this for. Wilson may get you say 30 points/week, but instead of taking him you could have had a WR or RB lottery ticket + a QB who gets you 25 points/week in round 9. Of course it's not a hard and fast rule. if Wilson is there in round 6 I am all over that but I am high on Wilson. Aaron Rodgers was available in the 5th+ in most drafts I did this year.

Better than getting rid of kickers is to add a 2nd kicker so half your league starts drafting them in the 6th round and you end up with a really deep team that you pick wrong every week and never get better than 3rd place against those rubes.

Speaking of kickers am I a crazy person for considering dropping Legatron for Josh Lambo? Lambo has actually been insane since the second half of last year and is like 35 of his last 36 and hasn't missed from over 50.

Help me prioritize and decide where to spend my FAAB money: Malcolm Brown and Nyheim Hines went to guys who were willing to spend 51% and 33% of their FAAB on them, respectively. But I was able to snag Parris Campbell for 5% of mine, and Benny Snell was still available for free. So I don't think I'm going to regret it. Now, who to drop for Minshew...

Looking at Gesicki or DJax to drop, but I’d feel better with some advice.
