Thanks for the feedback. I was already heading down a 3rd okayish qb road would make sense in a trade/cover for injury kind of deal, but wasn’t sure if that would be overkill. I guess we’ll just see if people adjust or just go essentially autodraft style and don’t account for the new flex rules.

When should I pick up a QB if I'm not going for Mahomes/Allen/Hurts? Is going for Burrow a good pick in the 5th if I like my RB/WR and don't see anyone left in those two that was looked over? Or should I just keep stacking those two until later?

All depends on your style of drafting but definitely can’t go wrong with Burrow. His offense is stacked.

If Burrow is going in the 5th you are going to win your SF league and don't need any advice from here. Burrow is going in the first round of every SF league and mock I've done this summer. Like, I legit saw "Burrow in the 5th" and immediately saw it as "Burrow with the 5th overall pick" and nodded.

Burrow is typically going in the 3rd/4th turn with Lamar. So if he is there in the 5th then yeah he's absolutely worth drafting. Fields, Herbert, and Lawrence are QBs that have been going in the 5th. I like Herbert to bounce back this year

Dude that sniped two QBs (Fields and Burrow) in 6 rounds and left me hanging with Rodgers did what I expected and offered me Burrow and Evans for my AJ Brown. Maybe I’m dumb but I just can’t get excited about Evans, and also I rejected the trade out of spite because his roster is on the weak side but Brown would put him right up into a competitive team so I slammed that no button. And I don’t know why he’s valuing Fields over Burrow but I hope that bites him in the rear end too. I will continue to ride with my dark(ness retreat) horse QB for the time being

Everyone on the bench is terrifying but in a 10 teamer there will be tons of dudes on waivers so whatever, I like how you took shots. If I had a nitpick it would be that you probably don't need to be carrying a backup QB and TE in a 10 team league. You made the bet on Hurts and Andrews being league winners, lean into it and add some more depth. Specifically you have 0 bench RBs besides Taylor who will miss somewhere between 4 and 17 weeks?

Then last year’s league winner, thinking I wanted Burrow, took Burrow in the third round, and Fields in the 4th, ostensibly to gently caress with one of the other players Also, here’s the result of that draft (14 team half ppr league): QB: Herbert WR: G.

Most of my 10 team league drafted backup QBs, which makes not drafting one that much harder. Is it really that much downside drafting a backup when I’d just be drafting some other WR to ride my bench instead? I was able to pick up burrow in the 6th round of my league, which feels like an amazing pickup compared to what everyone else is posting.

Like cool dude you MIGHT be able to swing a decent trade but in the meantime you are clogging up your bench with players you cannot use and have zero depth at any other position.

If you have a top 5 QB you are never ever ever ever ever going to start your backup QB over him. So why waste a roster spot all year for a player you are going to start exactly once (bye week)? Bench spots are enormously valuable and you need to use them on running backs and wide receivers. Also you can always find a QB who will give you a halfway decent scoring output at any time during the year on waivers. The same cannot be said for the other positions.

dunno man. even in a 10 team league, like the one I drafted in Friday, toward the end of the draft some dudes like donovan peoples-jones and juju and MVS are getting drafted. in a 10-teamer. meanwhile Kirk Cousins and Aaron Rodgers are getting drafted outside the top 10 QB's. QBs get hurt too and I'd rather roster Cousins as a QB2 than DPJ. Even if you don't have to start him he's better trade bait for someone who will inevitably need a QB

But no one is going to trade for those guys when they could just pick up a Daniel Jones, Dak Prescott, etc off waivers for free Idk maybe it’s just me but if I can keep a lottery ticket RB/WR that has the possibility of winning me my league if he blows up, or keeping a sub par QB who maybe I will start if my QB dies and will get me 1 point more per game than the other QB’s on waivers, i will always pick the lottery ticket. And if everyone else is taking two QB’s that just means there’s even more value available for you to stash on the bench. RCarr fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Sep 3, 2023 |

to me, it's about value. at some point the lotto tickets aren't worth it. who's really banking on this being DPJ's breakout year as CLE's WR3 and perhaps 5th option in a mediocre passing game? he should be drafted after Aaron Rodgers in any format. the odds of him hitting are much lower than the odds of your QB missing games and you wanting someone better than whoever's in the wire. plus you will have to have a QB for the bye week anyway. thus I don't stick with the hard and fast rules like "don't draft a QB2"

Yeah that last bench spot should be a young WR/RB who might wind up going off instead of a QB who should only get one start on your team at most. Like, unless you draft 2 QBs back-to-back, you’re winding up with someone like Goff, Geno, or Rodgers as your QB2. Looking at my 12 team league, FAs available right now are guys like Stafford, Carr, and Howell. If you lost a Mahomes or Hurts, are you really any less hosed having someone from the former list over the latter?

It’s easy to make your argument look better when you choose a guy with very limited upside. Also the entirety of fantasy football is “value judgements” so that’s a hell of a way to put down someone’s advice.

Also if you’re doing the waiver wire right you’re going to need some chaff to make room on your bench. Whoever you drafted in the 15th is an easy cut for the hot hand.

I ended up in 2nd place in a league last year with Hurts out, losing by 1 point in the finals while the FA QBs were absolutely trash tier and got me like 6 points. You are acting like those decent backup QBs will all be there when you need them week 8, and not siphoned up throughout the early part of the year if they actually look good. If Carr or Howell look good now someone will grab them before you need them, while if you draft one at least you get first dibs to see if they are worth anything.

I'm sitting here with Cousins at QB with no back up. Always stock up on potential players. They're more likely to help you win the league than that 2nd QB who you start 9 weeks from now.

It's more likely that a top 5 qb is going to get injured than some rookie RB stuck in a 3-way timeshare breaks out and becomes an every day starter.
