I don't understand the Najee fading whatsoever. It feels like a "way too easy" pick to make - snatching Najee where he's going.

It's why auction drafting is all about catching the pendulum players that swing too far away from regression toward the mean. Give me all the shares of Najee, Pitts, Ridley, some rookie RBs, and oh what's that? I still have enough money to overpay for JJeff and ASRB? Thanks, abnormal market trends!

Somehow I ended up bracketed between the few very experienced fantasy football people in what is a pretty casual league where a lot of people are not super knowledgeable. It feels a lot worse to watch the player you want fall 10 spots past their ADP all the way to 1 spot in front of you, but then get taken every single round.

My brother-in-law invited me to join their league where it's mostly casuals, and he runs the league and did a draft slot lotto thing where you got to pick your slot. Long story short, I ended up 1 slot in front of him and sniped a guy I knew he coveted (Bijan) in round one.

My league is 75% very experienced try hard fantasy managers (my self included) and I luckily got 5th and the guy who puts the most effort into it got 6th and is also very expressive and reactive and fun to mess with in general. It was great fun sniping players from him to hear audible groans. He only got me once. I really wanted Evan Engram dammit! Also we pick slots via drinking game. Where we have 36 coors lights numbered and the bottom. Everyone chugs a beer and checks the number. If you like it you can stay. If you don't you can chug again for a new number. A timer starts when someone finishes and if you don't finish that round I'm time you are stuck with the number. After everyone is done chugging or everyone is happy with the number they got we see what the order is lowest number on can to highest I've not heard of a better way to select draft order but curious other fun ways yall do it beyond names in a hat

My special teams only league had its draft yesterday. Ended up with this team and feeling pretty good about it despite knowing even less about this than regular fantasy. I went hard early on punters after having the top 2 punters last year lead my to glory. Some poor soul had technical difficulties during the draft and ended up autodrafting this team

thalweg posted:How does head coach scoring work I’ve never played with it but I think you get or lose points if that coach’s real team wins or loses. And you can also add a bonus for margin of victory. Basically “I think this team will be good this year”. I saw a guy saying his league has coaches but with all scoring set to 0 so it’s just for memes which I kind of love.

Fantasy Twitter is freaking the gently caress out., as it does. If he’s truly “day to day” and misses zero to one games then you got a bargain. If McVay is full of poo poo and he’s gonna miss a month or more then that’s a long time to be without your first pick.

Rate my 1PPR dynasty team. Still need to drop 4 players. Gardner Minshew will not be among them and if you even think of making that suggestion you will feel a cold wind across the back of your neck.

I need to drop either Rashee Rice or Jalen Hyatt. Who’s the better lottery pick in a league where I could keep either in the last round next year? (0.5 ppr)
|
# ? Sep 1, 2023 23:52 |

I have both and love both but I was a lot higher on Rice before he had like four or five drops in his last preseason game. But the fact that he had the opportunity for four drops kind of shows he's getting open a lot. But rookies in a Reid offense rarely if ever flourish. Maybe Rice turns into Davante Adams who also had the dropsies early in his career?

So are we stashing Deuce Vaughn before Week 1 to see what happens? The Cowboys only kept 3 RBs and a FB on the roster and we already know Rico Dowdle is just a replacement-level player. It would be really funny to complement Pollard with Vaughn but I do believe they intend to actually use him.
