Levin posted:Yeah, you're right, thanks for the sanity check, 0-2 and feeling the itch to tinker. I guess I was hoping to take a flier on a TE to provide security in case something happens to Thomas and for the off chance they somehow outperform him which I know is extremely unlikely. Is your thinking that at least my RB5-7 are solid backups with potential if the team's RB1 goes down? Feel pretty good about my first four and they all have different byes so maybe picking up another WR would be the better play. I think your team is fine and you have good depth as it is. I’m 0-2 as well but not making moves this week cause it’s too early to panic and there aren’t many slam dunk waiver adds this week

Why not pick up Lance or Fields in the last round especially if you’ve got an iffy QB already. If they pan out then youve either got a starter or a valuable trade asset And Dalton and Garappolo aren’t necessarily entrenched starters

Jimmy is 24-8 as a starter. He led them to a superbowl. Maybe Lance would be the next Mahomes but that was never realistic was it? Better dart throw would be a rookie like the Moores imo

Spermy Smurf posted:I cant quote you all but... am I way off base? I can't tell if people are picking on me or what. There is also a limit in value a 6th WR or whatever can provide. Players like Fields or Lance who have a reasonable chance at starting this year have value as a late speculative pick in the chance they become the starter AND good. What has a better chance at winning you your league? Fields or Jakobi Meyers? Plus if your QB gets injured it is nice not to be screwed. Spermy Smurf posted:Jimmy is 24-8 as a starter. He led them to a superbowl. Jimmy stood there while the defense and running game took them to the superbowl. He never had to do anything at any point to get them there, and whenever he did need to do something they ended up losing. Just last week he missed a ton of open receivers, and they are probably hoping they get some minor injury excuse to gently replace him without making it a "decision" like Fields is for Dalton.

I can't tell if people are picking on me or what. loling a little at both of you, but the real answer is I think any fixed draft rule, including "never draft a 2nd QB or TE," is kind of silly, and also it isn't like Lance (or Fields) is a backup like Mariota or Colt McCoy or something, they have real tangible upside and Jimmy G (and Dalton) aren't really entrenched starters, and also who cares when it's one of your last picks instead of a WR7 or whatever

Dude went 13 and 3 that year. What the crap did they ask of him that he failed? They lost 3 games. Three. He didn't sneak into wildcard at 7-9 or some poo poo. 27 touchdowns, and yes 13 ints. The guy was never in doubt as the week 1 starter. Maybe he gets replaced week 8 or 10 but it's not worth a draft pick in redraft. If you cut Lance no one will pick him up. Other players will be picked up. Does that mean it was a good choice to draft Lance if that happens, or was it a bad choice?

Historically, QBs drafted early in the 1st are starters at some point their first year, no matter how much teams say the plan is for them to sit. Jimmy just isn't an entrenched starter, teams don't draft a QB 3rd overall when they love their starter. That's a little separate from whether Lance is a good pick, but obviously related.

As one of the last picks I think it's perfectly fine. More often than not, you're likely dropping whoever you pick there for a hot waiver wire player anyway. Aside from the high percentage of first round QBs that get to start in their first year, the 49ers also traded up to that spot -- allegedly to get Mac Jones -- but ultimately went with Lance. There's also been the recurring theme around Jimmy G being merely a game manager and an entire industry of prognosticators that all believe that he's going to be usurped by Lance this year. And really, in this kind of year where it's much more likely that a player might have to miss time due to being on COVID IR, it's not a bad idea to have that kind of insurance policy on your roster. All that said, on Sunday morning I put in a waiver claim to drop Michael Pittman and pick up Christian Kirk instead of Rondale Moore so what the hell do I know.

Three. if Garropolo was so great the 49ers wouldn't have traded up to draft a QB. I don't think it's necessarily good to draft a second QB but it's an ok dart throw in late rounds. I think one of the fantasy footballers (who aren't gospel or anything but fantasy is literally their full-time job) drafted Lance in like the 7th round in a mock draft so it's not unheard of. It was definitely possible that Garropolo flames out early and Lance replaces him as early as week 1 or 2. Obviously that didn't happen but it could have, and Shannahan was tight-lipped as to who the starter would be in the offseason. Butter Hole fucked around with this message at 03:12 on Sep 22, 2021 |

No idea if this would even be accepted, but would you guys trade your Ekeler for Kelce? Tonyan is my TE and Miles Sanders, Ty'Son Williams, James Connor, and Latavius Murray are my other RBs. I'd be down RBs but I feel like Kelce is a consistent 15 point floor. And I don't trust LA's offense. The guy who admitted he's weak at RB also has Gronk too. Might be able to get him cheaper? e: oh should have mentioned it's 0.5 PPR

The next two weeks are telling. If the Niners come out of GB and SEA at 3-1,, expect a lot more Jimmy. - Trey Lance has a lot of poo poo to clean up. a lot. He was making a lot of mental mistakes in the preseason. - the "industry of prognosticators" is mostly guessing and going by The Rule of Cool - the Mac Jones thing was a massive pile of poo poo. - Jimmy Garoppolo is fully vaccinated and having a guy on your roster for that reason is a little weird. Sooooo unless Garopplo gets hurt in the next couple of weeks or the Niners poo poo the bed, we aren't seeing Lance for a while. Spoeank fucked around with this message at 04:28 on Sep 22, 2021 |

Hey y'all. Long time lurker looking for advice on a trade. I'm trying to get Kelce off the guy who jumped on Mahomes and Kelce too early in the draft and is weak at WR and RB. 10 team ppr Him: WR A.Rob, Cooper, Cooks RB Taylor, Edmonds, J. Williams TE Kelce Me: WR Hill, Mclauren, J. Jones, M. Williams, M. Thomas on IR RB A.Jones, Jacobs, Henderson, Ty'son, Gordon, TE Andrews Is Mclauren and Andrews for Kelce a fair trade? I think he'd pounce with a decent RB involved, but I'm not sure he'll go for what I have to offer with the injuries to Jacobs and Henderson. Also, I think I can afford to take a loss on a trade at WR to improve at TE.

Doesn't even look like he took Mahomes all that super early if he has JT. His team actually doesn't look that weak even for 10 man. That offer is a pretty big lowball. Andrews is barely involved in his offense and Terry isn't much better than any of the WRs he currently has rostered.

All the rankings still have AJ Brown pretty high up. I wanted to bench him in favor of J. Jones but I'm mildly a rankings slave. I definitely don't want to start both of them as I have been in the previous two weeks. With Brown getting all those targets I think he's the better start over Jones but if he's gonna go butterfingers again I just don't know what the hell

I would since you have a serviceable replacement, since "Healthy" might not mean a similar workload as the first 2 weeks and it is an unfavorable matchup. I am benching him for the first time this year as well for DJ Moore.

0ppr, standard rosters send: AJB, Rondale Moore, Tonyan receive: Waller, Marquise Brown, Christian Kirk my other WRs: Sutton, Ja'Marr Chase, Meyers, Mooney (Bateman + Samuel in IR) Seems like a pretty fair offer and it's really hard to turn down an elite TE and I think I'd smash in any kind of ppr. First time playing standard in a very long time though so not sure if the Tonyan to Waller upgrade there is worth what I have to give up.
