Early question for the upcoming year. Who to keep out of Jamaal Charles, Eddie Lacy, Thomas Rawls and CJ Anderson? No penalties or rounds to worry about, just keep 2. I've been thinking Charles/Rawls but keep hearing that Lacy looks really good. I got burned by him last year...am I missing something?

Drunk Nerds posted:For how long can you keep a player. If it's years and years, I'd go Rawls Lacy, Charles only has a season or two left in him, and if lacy turns it around you can get a lot of good seasons from him. Same for rawls Thanks. I keep 2 this year and 1 next year. What you're saying makes sense, it's just hard to trust a player after they had a flop of a year. No risk, no reward though.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Keep two this year, one next is interesting. What are the actual rules? That you can keep two players for their first year or one player for their second? It's on a three year cycle. You keep any two players this year (my only other keepers I'd consider would be Mike Evans/Tom Brady). Next year, you only get one keeper (does not have to be the same as previous year). The third year, there are no keepers and everyone is in the draft pool. We also determine draft order by who wins the consolation bracket of the playoffs, not worst team. Whoever wins that bracket gets whatever pick from 1-14. Second in that bracket gets next pick, and so on. Worst two teams end up picking seventh/eighth, and then the playoff bracket teams in reverse order. Using the consolation bracket gives everyone something to play for and discourages deliberate tanking. One guy pulled all his starters in the last week (he forgot about the rule), giving his opponent an easy win, and he slid to second worst record, just missing the consolation bracket. We laughed at him.

Cervixalot posted:Mike Evans is going to have a huge season, I am targeting him everywhere. I would keep him. It's the drops that have me slightly concerned. I think he'll probably be available to redraft at picks 13/16 if I want him again, whereas Charles/Lacy/Rawls may be scooped up by then.

Looking for players to fill an experimental league where almost everyone is a flex play. One quarterback. Six flex positions. Four bench players. It's the Superflex League! http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3784259 We have seven spots left. No idea if this will be a good idea or craptacular, but it should be an offense-a-palooza. Auction draft, FAAB, PPR, one keeper. I figured if you're gonna experiment, go hog wild.

Pain of Mind posted:I ended up with the number 1 pick in the goon 20 team league. Does the scarcity of decent RBs and the fact I will not pick again for almost 40 picks put someone like Gurley (or whoever is the #1 RB) over Brown, even though Brown gets ~ an extra point per game for return yards and is typically the number 1 pick in more traditional leagues? Standard scoring outside of some points for returns. Do like I did last year and draft Andrew Luck. Surely nothing wrong will come with that decision.

In a 14 team league with 15 kick/punt return yards/1 point , when would be a reasonable time to think about drafting Tyler Lockett? Is the fourth round (pick 44) crazy?

Bouncing this question to the front again before my draft tomorrow. I'm thinking I may be able to slide him into the fifth, but those projected return yards look awfully nice.

Hopefully this means that Vikings opponents have to accept the possibility that a pass might be thrown, so Adrian Peterson will not always have eight in the box.

Someone just dropped Rashad Jennings. Worth using my #2 waiver wire status to pick him up on Thursday? Current RBs are Lacy, Charles, Terrance West, James White.

Weird that someone dropped him right AFTER Andre Williams was cut, the surest sign yet that the Giants will feature Rashad Thanks everyone. I figured the same, but just wanted to make sure I wasn't overlooking anything. With the news of Forsett resigning, I'm dropping West for Jennings (assuming it goes through.)

pmchem posted:Could just exclude kicker trades. I'd be fine with bench fodder trades. But then why force people to do it? It just wouldn't be fun if people felt that they had to trade crap every week just for a small advantage. You'd get people to lose interest in the league quickly, I'd think.

Samu posted:Can you guys convince me not to roster Jimmy Graham? I mean I know he was crap last year but I'm having a huge case of the "what ifs?". I mean the guy used to be the best TE in the league there must be some outside chance he regains form this year. The Seattle offense is not the same as the New Orleans offense. Drew Brees loves his TEs. See: Antonio Gates, Jeremy Shockey, Jimmy Graham, BEN WATSON. Jimmy may come back, and I still like him. I just don't see him putting up monster numbers like he did here, especially while coming back from the injury.

Drunk Nerds posted:Right now? RB3s: Gore, henry, (if its not ppr) woodhead), etc. It's week 2, rbs are still in short supply and wrs are still abundant... a lot of owners think the shift from rb to wr at the top has erroneously affected this bottom line. Without knowing your settings or roster, I'd say wait until jones/tate has the inevitable great game and then shop them. Thanks. Hurns and Henry are on my waiver wire and I'm flipping between who to try to pick up when they clear on Sunday. Thought Hurns but might lean towards Henry for the long term gain.

My wife and I are playing this week, and she's got Touchdown Tom. I've got both Kelce and Bennett. I realize last week's 3 TDs was an aberration, but dammit, I think I'm playing Bennett over Kelce this week. I forget the argument for starting WR/TE when your opponent has the QB, but I hope Bennett gets all the touchdowns today.
