That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it

Have you guys thought about the various integrations to let it sync if someone is using it in sheets?

You can pull from sleeper API or MFL the draft status.

Beer does all the Beersheets stuff, the FA guys just do hosting and support for them. He's working on it but it's one man's freetime project so hopefully for 2022 :)

Feeling pretty meh about this draft, I went too high on Andrews and Dak but I really didn't want to drop into the next tier of guys at either position, which killed my RB depth so now I just have a pile of WRs and a hope that I can pick someone off the wire if anything happens to Jones/Dobbins.

Disagree; if your league requires a starter at TE, TE is the highest VAR position - and one of the most predictable at top 2/3 right now.

The issue is if you take an early TE, it needs to be both early and a stud - meaning kelce waller or kittle. Mandrews is in that middle no man's land where he just isn't what you want.

Only if you're wrong. I'm taking Hock regularly in the 4th regularly or 5th regularly with no regrets. I think Hock is gonna end up improving on last year and that's his price. I don't mind taking guys like that there because the difference between running backs has usually already cratered and the difference between receivers is negligible.

I always wait longer for quarterbacks unless Mahomes somehow drops to the fourth, in which case YOLO.

Man the dude is super talented but the Lions have a downgrade at QB and are dire in general

Im just steering clear of TEs after Kelce Waller and Kittle until double digit rounds

I am by no means a fantasy genius tho

It's wobbly with the next 3 but then I'm absolutely hands off until it's like Jonnu Time.

Some stuff I dug up this spring:
- In 2020, the difference between TE6 and TE18 was 1.6 fantasy points per week. From 2011 to 2019, it was 3.34.

- 48 tight ends finished inside the top-12 in HPPR all season long without a touchdown, or 2.8 TE per week. That led to a lot of one-and-done randoms like Kaden Smith and Ross Dwelley popping up with a TD.

- 65 different tight ends ended inside the top-12, 27 did it once (41%).

If you're not going big there's no point to hang out in the middle.

"Patel"? Fuck you.
I'd take Hockenson over Pitts. Hockenson is the only reliable target on the Lions and Pitts is a rookie TE. I know Atlanta is going to supposedly use Pitts as more of a receiver than a TE, but Atlanta has Calvin Ridley, Russell Gage, and Olamide Zaccheaus as reliable receiving options. TE Hayden Hurst is also still with the Falcons and had 90 targets last year.

Oof, I really felt like this draft got away from me. 10-team PPR redraft league:

QB: Kyler Murray
RB: Christian McCaffrey, Clyde Edwards-Helaire
WR: DeAndre Hopkins, Brandon Aiyuk, JuJu Smith-Schuster
TE: Mike Gesicki
Flex: D'Andre Swift
Superflex: Ryan Tannehill
K: Jason Sanders
D/ST: Baltimore

Bench: Tua Tagovailoa, Gus Edwards, Michael Carter, Brandin Cooks, Curtis Samuel, Jonnu Smith, Evan Engram

I ended up drafting three TEs in the hopes that one of them has a good season and is worth starting. I don't know; this was one of those drafts where the person I wanted was always taken a pick or two ahead of me.

I'm not an expert but just throwing my opinion out there since I like to come to this thread for other people's thoughts - if it were me I would drop Mike Davis or maybe Marquez Callaway if you don't want to drop Davis.

Going against the grain here with Devonta Smith. Rookie receivers being fantasy viable isn't the normal and Michael Thomas is already injured and out for who knows how long.

Callaway has chemistry with Jameis and let's face it somebody has to get targets in NO with Thomas out.

This is my take as well. Eagles are going to likely be bad, he is a rookie, and if Lockett and Shenault are on your bench when would you ever start Smith.

Engram shouldn't have been owned in a 10 team league even before he got hurt tonight. Drop him for a RB or WR.

Other than that I don't think it's that bad, especially if CEH takes a leap forward.

Otoh Devonta Smith is the third WR Heisman winner ever and a top 10 draft pick. Callaway seems a fine dart throw too, but Smith has better fantasy prospects than a typical rookie.
