I thought I was going to be the smart one and start drafting a ton of defenses to maximize that slot each week but looks like I waited a round too long.

And I don't have a real QB on my roster so I had to spend way too many picks on the backup lottery. But I think Russell Wilson might have a kind of short leash and Jarrett Stidham might be good?

My original plan was also to draft like 4 defenses to try and guarantee a good score in that spot every week but somehow I got into the weeds where *checks notes* La'Mical Perine seemed like a great idea

Stidham was a good bet imo he was absolutely a target of mine

I'm worried I don't actually have a TE despite drafting the Commanders' nominal starter lol, Thomas is so old and injured. I should have gone for Jonnu. A phrase that speaks to how sick this league is

I’m curious what an average weekly score is going to look like in this league. Like is it even over 50? In a game where under 100 is disappointing that’s a big lol

Jake Fromm
Josh Johnson
Chris Streveler
Case Keenum
Cam Newton
Josh Rosen

Seemed like it was getting a bit onerous for some and I figured in a normal draft, we'd all have access to the same info at the outset, so why not just post it?

Kind doubt any of these last bunch are gonna make a huge impact on anyone's season in any case. :shobon:

There's been, I think 18 D/STs picked already? And there's still at least two to pick from? Man if I I'd known there would be that many available I definitely wouldnt have picked one in the 2nd round. :lol:

I initially assumed that just about every defense would have at least one AFCE alumni but then I saw others picking up defenses and I saw there was no one eligible on the Eagles so I questioned my initial belief, panicked, then just chose one.

Yeah likewise I assumed pretty much every team would have someone. And most totally do but several of the elite (at least last year) defenses had nobody. I spent too much time triple checking Eagles and Broncos

Also this league has me unreasonably nervous about Logan Thomas getting cut today, a thing no sane person who isn't literally Logan Thomas should care about

I figured there would be like eight? Maybe nine? It does make a lot of sense when you have an entire half of a roster to churn through and just as many possible slots to fill on every other team.

Ah, my bad. That's what I get for just Ctrl+Fing "Chiefs" on the first page. I'll take the Panthers D/ST through Frankie Luvu.

Also 3/5 WRs on my team (Watkins, Dorsett, Crowder) have either been released or haven't signed with a team this year LOL

I wish they were available. I'm obviously biased as an Eagles fan, and some regression is likely but they could have 15 fewer sacks this year and still be a top-5 defense.

E: yeah I read the part about defensive players but wasn't sure if it was intentionally exclusionary or just an oversight. If it's possible, yes I'm taking the Browns. If not, I'll need to do a little digging before I get my next pick in because my other two guys got sniped.

Yeah I decided to just keep it to defense to make it easier. Felt like a slippery slope to allow kick or punt returners, then long snappers, then gunners, etc. Too much of a headache to cross-check and we're not exactly starved for eligible D/ST.

So the new Pats backup QB is eligible if he doesn't come via a trade. Just need a period of him being a proper free agent.
