I lost my Championship by 10 points. I started Doug Baldwin, Nick Chubb, Melvin Gordon, and Travis Kelce. Any one of the CJ Anderson, Jarvis Landry, or George Kittle on my bench would have won me the title. gently caress Week 17 Championships, and gently caress Fantasy Football. Oh well, it was a good run.

I'm making GBS threads right now. Kittle's last minute bullshit TD gave me an extra 10 points I wouldn't have otherwise had. I'm only down 2 points right now with Andrew Luck and Adam Vinatieri left in play. My opponent only has Derrick Henry. Let's loving go Air Andy

I owe Beer Sheets another year. I didn't win any of my leagues but I was in the playoffs in all of them. Also, homerism aside, I was right about keeping Mahomes over Cousins and that's what I'm taking from this year.

Beersheets are great until you convince yourself that all the players you like are worth an extra $5 each and you end up with Derrick Henry and Dalvin Cook for 43% of your budget. This is not a shot at Beersheets but at my own terrible prep work outside of it  (welcome to my Lessons Learned notebook, 2018) edit: gently caress you derrick henry for ending as RB13 after scoring 26 pts in the first six weeks Poque fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Dec 31, 2018 |

For some reason, after starting George Kittle all year and having him crush it, I decided to bench him for Adam Humphries in the Week 14 semi's, where he went on to score 30 points. Had I started him, I would have won the semifinal match, and outscored both teams who went on to play in the championship. This single bonehead move cost me $350.

Since fantasy football is over and I know we all still want to talk about it, I'll throw my dynasty conundrum up for debate. I've posted about this league plenty of times, but for a refresher, it's a PPR salary cap dynasty league. 25 man rosters (Not including 3 IR and 3 Taxi slots). Salaries increase by 10% or $1 each season (Whichever is higher). The salary cap is $250. Here is my current roster (prices shown are what players will cost NEXT year, after the salary increase) QB: Andrew Luck $14 Jared Goff $4 Jameis Winston $2 WR: Antonio Brown $56 DeAndre Hopkins $29 Alshon Jeffery $23 Demaryius Thomas $23 Michael Crabtree $19 Allen Robinson $13 DeVante Parker $5 Robby Anderson $4 Devin Funchess $3 Dede Westbrook $3 Marqise Lee $2 Curtis Samuel $2 Equanimeous St Brown $2 Jake Kumerow $2 RB: Joe Mixon $23 Mark Ingram $12 Phillip Lindsay $10 Sony Michel $9 Nyheim Hines $5 Rex Burkhead $5 Dion Lewis $3 Justin Jackson $2 TE: Hunter Henry $4 Eric Ebron $3 Will Dissly $2 TAXI SQUAD (Does not count against Salary Cap or Roster Spot Cap) Robert Foster $2 Deon Cain $2 My draft picks for next year: THREE 1st round picks (Two of them will be either $17 or $15, the third will be $13) TWO 2nd round picks (Will be either $11 or $9 each) ONE 3rd round pick ($5) TWO 4th round picks ($3 each) ONE 5th round pick ($1) ONE 6th round pick ($1) ONE 7th round pick ($1) Giving me a total of between $74 and $82 cap space needed to use my picks (However they are voluntary and I don't HAVE to use all of them) Sooooo.... I need to cut A LOT of salary. My thoughts: Crabtree, Thomas, Jeffery, & Ingram are overpaid and should be cut/traded. Antonio Brown is probably going to have to be traded, as much as that pains me. I should probably try to trade some draft picks for some cheap young players. Anyone have any advice? This is gonna be miserable to figure out.

I remember a little while back someone said they're in a league with offensive linemen and non-fg kickers. How are those positions scored? And is there a scoring scheme for every position on the field, offense and defense? A league with every position seems interesting to me.

Salaries increase by 10% or $1 each season (Whichever is higher). The salary cap is $250. Let's see.

If you can trade them for decent salaried vets, I'd do it. I would 100% cut Thomas and Crabtree, no question on them. Jeffery and Ingram are debatable, I'd try to hold both if possible, certainly to see where Ingram lands. I'd definitely hold Brown unless a great offer comes up, you're not in any kind of cap hell situation that I can see. It will be minimal savings per player, but Parker (unless he pulls off a really good off season move), Funchess, Kumerow, Burkhead, Justin Jackson, and Dissly are all expendable, and together that'd free up $19. Eq St Brown and Kumerow could be in there too, though I totally get wanting to hold and see if either can claim a share of Rodgers' offense. Maybe cut one of them to keep Justin Jackson? So, cut Thomas, Crabtree, and that cutlist, and you clear up $61, seems like plenty for your picks (won't get to use a 2nd?). Doesn't seem like too much of a cap issue. Regardless, I'd try and trade out of all your non-1st round picks with those salaries. And if late 1sts are still costing you as much as an Allen Robinson, Sony Michel, or half a Lindsay or Hopkins, I'd try to move those too. I'd be cautious of trying too hard to secure a bunch of unheralded young guys on cheap salaries, as those'll still add up.

Reminder that taxi squad guys zero salary against the cap, so it's totally fine to keep e.g. 3 of those 2nd and later rounders as taxi stashes.

The only guys on my team that are eligible for the taxi squad are the two on it. Everyone else is ineligible due to our rules (has to be a rookie or sophomore, can’t have been promoted from a taxi squad before).

I'd still probably want to taxi the 1st rounders that aren't likely to contribute right away, someone like the receivers, Guice, Kerryon, etc from this year, for example. But that's true, makes those 2nd rounders not so worthless. RCarr posted:So you’re saying trade away all picks except for my three 1st round picks? If I cut $61 salary I would only have $27 of cap space to draft with. They're just really not good values. A couple 2nds will have most of the salary of Hopkins, or each will be equivalent to Allen Robinson, Sony Michel, Lindsay? It's just, if you're worried about salary, dumping all picks after the 1st rounders will be equivalent to about 2/3 of Antonio Brown's salary, ya know? (Not taking into account being able to stash some on the taxi squad, though)

Yeah, the way I look at our dynasty draft (which is based on very similar rules as RCarr's) is this: First round picks are probably producing immediately, costing a lot, and I'm aiming for a player who is probably on my bench as a possible starter pretty soon. I assume I'll be paying their full cap for at least a couple years, with maybe a 20% discount applied against the chance they're a year-1 bust. (we also have taxi squad theft and I likely don't want to risk a 1st rounder getting stolen, although starting this year we get compensatory picks for stolen guys so that risk has dropped a lot.) Second and third round picks are expensive lottery tickets, so they have to go on the taxi squad. Assumption is one of them will turn out to be useful and wind up on my roster, and one or two will bust and get traded or dropped. Note here that bust doesn't mean useless player - it just means not worth their salary cap hit. $9-$11 is too much for a non-starting backup stash player in most positions. I'd pay it for a QB2, maybe. Fourth+ round picks are cheap guys. If I have room on a taxi, I will put one there, but they're cheap enough I can keep them on the bench. One or more may not survive the preseason, and probably at least half will be gone by this time next year, so I discount their salaries a lot. In some cases I may not even be drafting by round 4-5 because I didn't want to drop guys to make room. My main concern here is whether a $2 rookie is worth more than a $2 waiver wire grab... sometimes it's not, but the investment is low so it's OK to drop a 5th round pick for a free agent who seems to be doing better than expected in the preseason, or to fill a gap created by an injury at like TE or DL or something. Based on those assumptions (and very similar salary numbers) being loaded up with three #1s would be a problem. A nice problem to have, maybe, but... yeah, probably at least one will have to be taxied just to afford the salary. Figure one taxi there, plus two more from round 2, and then you might want to skip the picks from round 3 or 4 so you can afford to carry your remaining rookies on your bench. If you can trade both round 4 picks for value I'd go for it. I'd also be happy to trade one of the 2nd round picks and the 3rd round pick away if I could get somebody decent and lower-salary for it. Those five early picks translate into a huge investment this fall in rookies, but also hopefully a big payoff in 1-4 years as you hit big on a couple of them and trade or dump the rest as overpriced. Use your taxi squad wisely, and also don't forget that by day 1 of the regular season you are very likely to already have 1-2 guys on IR, because that always happens.

Figured only the true degenerates are still checking this thread, so it’s the perfect time to ask. My main dynasty league has 2 openings this year. It’s year round activity, media, and overall the most fun and active league I’ve ever been a part of. It’s a salary/contract league with IDP, offensive line, coaches, and punters. Here is the link to learn more if anyone is interested. Feel free to message me if you have any questions as well. https://forums.footballguys.com/for...ers-washington/
