The question for those of us in redraft leagues with people who arent stupid enough to drop Gus Edwards, is how much do we blow on Justice Hill? Or if there is a different Ravens backup RB that might be worth picking up.

Interested in other peoples' thoughts on him. On one hand, you have a worse offense than the Ravens, with more potential for negative game script, and the same problem of a mobile QB. On the other hand, Sanders has been a top RB before, and who is his competition in the backfield, Kerryon Johnson? Boston Scott? Not exactly threatening. Feels like a higher risk/reward proposition than some other RBs in that range.

Feels like a higher risk/reward proposition than some other RBs in that range. Kerryon got released with a knee injury. Scott is a genuinely good change-of-pace guy and the coaching staff has said they want to get him more involved. They apparently dont trust Sanders very much with pass catching which is why they brought in Gainwell. I don't think that move made any sense. Sanders catch rate was slightly below 50% but it was Wentz throwing to him most of the season and Wentz sucked so Long story short he's the clear #1 but if they do what they say they're gonna do he will lose touches to those two. Just remains to be seen how much.

Levin posted:12 team snake redraft league this Saturday night, drafting 9th. Key differences from standard seem to be 3WR, Half PPR, 0.2/completion, 6pt Pass TD, -2int, 3 IDPs (LB, DB, DL), 9 bench. Davante Adams Joe Mixon Josh Allen Robert Woods Kareem Hunt Darrell Henderson Melvin Gordon III Tyler Boyd Logan Thomas Laviska Shenault Jr Irv Smith Jr Devante Parker Roquan Smith Myles Garrett Rashad Penny Cole Beasley Malcolm Brown Miami DEF Derek Carr Jason Sanders John Johnson III First 12-team league, host had a power outage which delayed the start, took roughly 4 hours to finish... Made some serious gently caress ups. Drafted Josh Allen too early, previous experience led me to believe a QB run was coming but Kyler Murray, Lamar Jackson, Russell Wilson and Dak Prescott all dropped. Don't feel great about my TEs but made the best of bad situation given how the rest dropped I feel. Not sure what my reasoning was behind Miami D but can stream. Derek Carr I don't know, got confused looking between rankings, should have gone with Tua but at least both have decent matchups for Allen's week 7 bye. I could have probably sniped a better DB but given how shallow our IDP lineup is it shouldn't matter. Ended up using mostly Beersheets with FantasyPros to supplement it. Probably should throw that guy some $$$ his sheet is awesome was a huge help.

Quiet Feet posted:What are people's thoughts re: Jonathan Taylor? Been farting sound with mocks and Fantasy Pros and Sleeper have widely different projections for him, the former expecting 250 and the latter closer to 300 in half ppr. I had Miles Sanders last year and he was unplayable when Wentz was under center, and improved drastically when Hurts was put in. Additionally, Marlon Mack and Nyheim Hines are good running backs. Hines will be in there on a lot of 3rd downs and Mack is always a threat to replace Taylor as the starter if Taylor falters. Mack rushed for over 1000 yards in 14 games only 2 years ago (he was hurt last year). The Colts should have a good O-line but everything else makes me heavily distrust the situation.

I would greatly appreciate a sanity check as my keeper submission deadline nears. 10 team, 2 QB/3WR/2RB/WR-RB flex/TE league. Definitely keeping Mahomes (5th round) and Ekeler (8th). Currently planning to keep D'Andre Swift in the 7th but could keep McLaurin in the 4th, or I guess Claypool in the 19th. Swift seems like the best overall play - Claypool may have the most raw value but seems too risky given that I don't really trust Roethlisberger to avoid crumbling into dust this year, and I like McLaurin's overall situation and chance to perform best but the difference between 4th and 7th rounds feels significant.

I'd probably keep swift in the 7th. Having a qb1 and 2 starting level rb's is worth giving up the value of claypool in the 19th. I wouldn't really consider giving a 4th for McLaurin. That's only like a round or two improvement of where he should be going and wr is really deep when compared to RB.

Thank you all. I got cold feet about possibly undervaluing WR in a 3 WR league, but you're right - I can address WR in the early rounds (I also have an extra 3rd round pick via a trade).

Assuming there is no elite TE available I'd grab your second qb and then just take a ton of wr's. Fill in the roster near the end of the draft with other injury away and elite backups at RB.

Draft tonight, how much are people factoring vaccination status into draft decisions? I'm currently treating it as a tie breaker when players fall into the same tier, apparently McCaffrey is a "declined to discuss vaccination status" guy but I'm not sure it's enough to knock him from the top spot. I'm picking second so it might not even be relevant but the guy who's first tends to do stupid stuff like take QBs in the first round.

Im trying to draft confirmed vaxxed players with my top 4 picks or $25ish plus dollar bids. After that the opportunity cost isn't so great that I care if they're confirmed vaccinated. Although I'd probably still avoid unvaxxed guys until I got down to replacement level players. Also greatly prefer vaxxed QBs since you could have a two week hole in your lineup if they have a bad bout of covid. I think the standout unvaxxed player there is Lamar Jackson. So he still is probably worth drafting.

I'm currently treating it as a tie breaker when players fall into the same tier, apparently McCaffrey is a "declined to discuss vaccination status" guy but I'm not sure it's enough to knock him from the top spot. I have a feeling the league told them to answer like that to keep it ambiguous since they all have the exact same phrasing. Right now the problem is we only know that some players are unvaccinated because they either admitted it or due to whatever league mandated covid protocols they need to follow (wearing a mask on the sidelines, long quarantine from secondary exposure etc.). Even though most teams have a reasonably high percentage of players vaccinated, I have a feeling the unvaccinated players are biased towards more fantasy relevant players since someone just trying to make the roster as the 5th WR needs to get vaxed to make themselves more desirable to the team, while Lamar Jackson or DeAndre Hopkins will not be cut either way. Since as far as I know we don't have full vaccination status for everyone, I feel like there is a risk that if you skip a star player due to being unvaxed, the lower ADP player that you chose instead of them might also be unvaccinated, but they were smart enough to not tweet about it. I think it would be a good tie breaker for players you like somewhat equally, but I would not choose Emmanuel Sanders over Hopkins just because I know he is vaxed and Hopkins is not. I am actually surprised no list has been compiled for this yet with all of the fantasy sites out there, figure watching training camp and such people would be able to figure it out.

Drafting in my big important (snake) draft this morning. I'm drafting third and the running backs left will be Dalvin Cook (going first, the guy already told me he's picking him) Alvin Kamara (the guy would be a fool to take anybody else) Saquon Barkley Jonathan Taylor Nick Chubb Austin Ekeler I don't galaxy brain this, right? If Saquon falls to me I have to take him? Justin Jefferson is my keeper in the 8th and the league is .5 PPR. I'd be a fool to take Taylor or anybody else yeah?

Right keepers crossed out: My hope is that #2 takes Saquon and removes the doubt. I have a tough decision and Saquon is just now getting back to practicing. But also Taylor could be kind of a flash in the pan I fear. If I trust the beersheet the answer is Saquon but I'm just worried about it. edit: also I'm super happy I selected Justin Jefferson in the 8th over Dobbins in the second as my keeper kiimo fucked around with this message at 16:16 on Aug 29, 2021 |

obviously it depends who youre keeping but id rather one of the sure-fire elite wrs (adams, hill +/- diggs, ridley for me) over one of the rbs with ?s (e.g. barkley, taylor, some other guys). it depends on your own personal assessment where that line is. fwiw, i like ekeler or chubb more than barkley.

I think there's a good reason why the value is higher on the RBs I mentioned than Davante or Tyreek. If I take a receiver there I now have two wide receivers and I don't draft again until pick 2.11 and I'm looking at going into the season with a starting RB of like David Montgomery. Kelce is the crazy option as well but I think I'm best served by taking RB there. kiimo fucked around with this message at 16:25 on Aug 29, 2021 |
