Can we all agree that Kelvin Benjamin should have been valued way higher in the drafts this year? He smashed all of the projections last night against one of the strongest secondaries in the league. Just got finished bragging on him in my Goon League thread. I'm so glad football is back.

With Gronk out this weekend I'm scrambling, and I just read a glowing recommendation for Clive Walford, the TE for Oakland. Is he a better look than Charles Clay (my current backup TE)? Kyle Rudolph and Jordan Cameron are both available as well, at least I recognize those names...

I was forced to take a backup TE in this particular league because there's a limit on RBs (5) and WRs (4). IIRC that's a default ESPN setting

Riven posted:This is my first time playing FF, was hoping I could get some advice/input on my roster since I'm obviously not getting any from the other people in my league. First off, I think your team looks pretty good for a person who's in their first FF league, so good job there! Like Forever_Peace and TUS said, it's better to focus your time and attention on acquiring good RBs and WRs. You don't really need a backup TE, QB, K, or Def until you do, and there's always going to be serviceable options in the free agency for those. RBs and WRs, or at least talented/highly productive ones, will be harder to come by, so having more of them increases your chances. Also this: don't overthink the kicker, and certainly don't blame yourself for failing to start the one that got more points. That will keep happening no matter how good you get. I mean, you could try to pick up a kicker on a team with a matchup that will be conducive to that team being forced to kick a lot of field goals, but I think you'll find that it's pretty much a crapshoot across the board with very few exceptions. Again, focus your research time and efforts to uncovering the sleeper RBs and WRs and you'll be happier overall.

kiimo posted:Should I spend a chunk of change on Fozzy Whitaker is he an illusion? I'd classify him as a competent handcuff a la DeAngelo Williams or Spencer Ware. If J Stew is kept out by this injury next week he'll absolutely be a great plug and play RB2, and if J Stew goes out for an extended period of time I'd say he should absolutely be owned in any 10 team or higher league. But when J Stew is active, no, there's probably not much use in starting Fozzy.

Cervixalot posted:Just curious, but why would you consider him on the level of a DeAngelo or Ware? Both of those guys are extremely talented RBs in great situations that have shown they can produce RB1 weeks. Yeah, after going back and looking at just how well DWill and Ware have produced, it's probably not fair to put Fozzy on that level. But I think his usage should be considered the same, just on an RB2 level rather than an RB1 level like those guys. E: Also, I think this week we were shown that Carolina has rethought their original plan of the backup RBBC, instead featuring Fozzy in a more singular role than before. Didn't see ANY of CAP, and Tolbert saw just about as much action as he sees with J Stew in.

Ware will still continue to be one of the most effective handcuffs in the league regardless of what sort of timeshare he is or isn't in with Jamaal Charles. As a guy who owns shares of Jamaal without owning shares of Ware in a league or two, I would absolutely hang onto Ware for as long as possible even after Jamaal takes over the brunt of the workload.

Last year's league champ is trying to jockey for some better RBs. His current offer is my Christine Michael for his Big Ben, straight up. I countered with the same deal for Rodgers instead but he's not buying it. He said he'd be willing to do Rodgers if I gave him Michael plus one more of my starters, and then I could probably demand one of his starters in turn. I'm on the right, he's on the left. Would it be a mistake for me to let go of Michael? Is all of this worth if for the upgrade at QB that I need?  E: 12 man league, 0 ppr, ESPN

pubic works project posted:poo poo. I'd let him sink. It's his own dumbass fault for drafting 3 QBs when he didn't need to. He's smart for not taking the Rodgers - Michael deal, but I'd be reluctant to part with CMike just for Big Ben. I feel like he's going to end up being the starter. RBs: Darkwa, Dwayne Washington, Jordan Howard, West, McCluster, Others QB: Gabbert, Fitzpatrick, Flacco, Osweiler, Bradford, Others

Which of these RBs looks best ROS as a trade target: Matt Asiata, Carlos Hyde, or Mike Davis? Also, which one can I most realistically expect to get for Jack Doyle? McKinnon and Sproles are also potential targets, but they're in starter slots so he'll probably not be interested in parting with them. Also, which one can I most realistically expect to get for Jack Doyle? I've sort of slipped keeping up with the week to week news so forgive me if one of those is a huge outlier or something! E: Yeah, after a bit more research, I doubt I could get Carlos Hyde, for instance... timp fucked around with this message at 21:39 on Oct 26, 2016 |

Leperflesh posted:Nobody in the league has complained. This is a dynasty money league; having very clear and comprehensive rules means not having lovely drama and fights and stuff. And we hashed out the rules before the startup draft in 2015, as a group, so everyone had a chance to know and agree to them before we got going. Aka it was written by a goon aka say no more

I've mentioned it a couple times in these threads throughout the years, but I'm very annoyed with my College Buddy ESPN League having a limit on RBs and WRs. We can only have 5 of each. And last year, it was 5 WRs and 4 RBs. So I'm trying to drop Austin Hooper, Atl's TE, now that Gronk's back from his bye, but there's literally nobody I can really grab. I ended up stashing the Packers D because the QB free agency is a rolling tumbleweed and there are no RBs or WRs better than the ones on my current roster, though there are some good ones I'd consider stashing if I could. Is this an ESPN default? Doesn't seem like the kind of thing our commish would come up with on his own, but unfortunately it's not going to change anytime soon in our league because last time we talked about it, the consensus was that it's a good thing because it helps us value our skill players more. It's still lame though. Diving right into Fantasy this morning as a welcome distraction.
