VDay posted:This was my immediate thought as well. All of my friends thought I was a fantasy football dumbass for like the first two seasons we started playing fantasy football because I would just give the dumbest advice possible. Now almost a decade later it's morphed into this kind of bizarre meta-meta-meta game where everyone is giving cryptic double-meaning advice/opinion on players or talking about trades. This explains all the misinformation about Charlie Sims being "mini forte" when he is clearly "much better than forte, in football and in life"

Varg posted:that's a lot of words and numbers that end up meaning nothing as soon as the draft actually starts and you just go by instinct after thinking about the perfect draft strategy for the last 6 months. fwiw I've had the 1st spot once and 2nd spot twice in the past 3 years in 10 teams and have won all those years. I really don't know if draft position means all that much when you have a mix of people who know and don't really know what they're doing. Fantasy Football 2015: that's a lot of words and numbers that end up meaning nothing Instincts are cool and I'm not a fan of any method that uses projected points as a barometer for success

VDay posted:Figuring out who you should drop early and who to hold on to all season is one of the more important and underrated fantasy skills imo. Way too many people get attached to their drafted players and have them sit on the bench for 9 weeks not doing anything before finally dropping them for a second defense or bye-week kicker. It can definitely bite you in the rear end sometimes, but I've found that being super aggressive with drops/waiver pickups pays off like 80% of the time, and I end up getting a league-winning player from the waiver wire almost every year that I win. Trading those players to someone willing to buy "low" is my favorite part of the fantasy season

Enforka posted:Also, hopefully I'm not too late for stat chat, but I'd love to see the zero-RB draft strategy analysis done using real scoring data from years past, rather than projected points data from this year. Zero RB strat last year was not viable. I did a bunch of mocks going for a Graham/Gronk or a DT/Peyton strat and kept getting Toby Gerhart and Bishop Sankey as RB1/2 and I wasn't comfortable with that

1. use the random function to select an initial wikipedia page 2. using only hyperlinks, use the smallest amount of clicks to get to "X" where X is charlie sims / pornography / some nerd poo poo / whatever managers must retrace their steps and submit their solution to the commish. draft order is decided by lowest clicks / fastest solution --- 1. everyone submits the name of a football player to the commish 2. without knowing who anyone else has picked, everyone guesses how many rings or MVPs or arrests or some poo poo the entire pool of players has collectively won draft order is decided by accuracy of guess

Dandy Kaiser posted:I love how Kelce is a "safe" pick. Alex Smith can't throw a seam route to save his life and Charles will get 85% of the dump-off looks. Kelce is going to have a nice mediocre 60-600-5 season and I'm going to loving laugh and laugh and laugh. Kelce is "safe" because you can drop him in your TE slot and forget about him until KC's bye. His snaps were capped because of Fasano but now he's likely to be a top 5 TE on the season Randle is relatively riskier since he can be put into RBCC or worse the Cowboys could sign Bradshaw/another FA. He could either be an elite RB for the season or not worth rostering before opening kickoff that being said, agree TEs suck and OP is a huge pussy if he keeps Kelce over Randle

Nobody said anything, as they generally don't for most of the trades that go through. The commissioner even put Benjamin up on the draft board as a keeper for the other guy. Now the guy I am trading him to says the trade should be cancelled because it was never voted on and people did not have the time to see it. We are two days away from the keeper deadline. its bullshit
