It's never struck me as being crazy to define the people trying to tackle the ball carrier as the defense. That being said, you can get around it, even in ESPN. IDP.

Forever_Peace posted:Fantasyfootballcalculator mocks have their current ADP in the mid 2nd, as RB8 and RB10 respectively. Though a lot of fantasy pundits have Zeke ranked #2-4, which seems stupid high for a rookie. That TEN backfield just feels like a mess. I don't know what CJA has done to warrant any degree of confidence.

So just did a 12 team mock on Yahoo, which is the only one not blocked at work, and found myself in the 10th and 11th round staring a Crowell, Woodhead, and Yeldon. Now, obviously, some of this is due to the dumb way Yahoo autodrafts, but I have been seeing those fairly late in some other drafts too. All of those 3, to me, seem like potentially startable dudes, not just 4th or 5th bench RBs. Am I way off base here?

We did it during our annual Super Bowl party, only about half the league watched while the others continued drinking and watching the half time show (why?!?!), but it was pretty dope. Make it a fantasy combine. 40 oz chug time, time to pick the highest yardage player from an unsorted list of RBs, add/drop time, time to change the channel to Red Zone. Just start with the chugging.

So I was trying to sort through keepers in one of my leagues. It's a 12 team superflex league, and there are likely going to be very few QBs to draft. Ben, Rivers and Cutler all go back into the pool this year, but Ben and Rivers will likely be taken by my pick. I need to choose six, and given the format have 7 very keepable dudes. Russel Wilson (1) Tyrod Taylor (2) Jarvis Landry (4) Allen Robinson (4) Dez Bryant (2) Lamar Miller (2) Todd Gurley (5) The numbers in parentheses are how long I can keep those players for, there's no other cost associated. No PPR, standard scoring otherwise. My instinct is to keep 2 QB, 2 WR, and 2 RB. I'm loathe to drop any of the receivers though. Given that I draft 12th of 12, if I send back Taylor, I'm probably replacing him with someone like Cutler and then someone like Osweiler or a rookie (if I can grab a 3rd QB), which might be OK this year, but could be tragic next year when I lose Wilson. I've an offer to move Landry or Dez for a 3rd round pick, I haven't been able to get anything better yet. How would y'all do this?

Regarding draft strategy, how do you drink during the draft? For my two longest draft (14 team auction and 12 team deep keeper) I tend to go for a bomber follow by cans. I tend to stick towards lighter beers since it's August. I feel this is a pretty typical draft strategy. And on the whole it's a good system, leaving me willing to make a few risky plays as the draft goes on while still being fairly coherent by the end. This year I'm starting with a 7.5 and dropping to a 5.2. How do you mix it up? I feel like a heavier beer might balls it up a bit. Does anyone do cocktails? Is it worth bringing a high alcohol beer and sharing around to try and get a leg up, sobriety wise? On a related note, we have one member drafting pregnant, is that enough of a disability given that she even be buzzed by the end of a long rear end auction? Should some other penalty apply?

I really wanted to share this with someone, so I picked y'all. First trade in my 14 team league and a guy swapped Rivers (his backup) for Romo, because Rivers is playing Denver when he needs him to fill in, whereas Romo (or Dak, who he also has) is playing the Eagles. Admittedly a bad trade. A long e-mail chain generated this response.quote:First off, come 3am I will have 3 QB1's all better than Rivers. Period. Secondly, am I getting trolled here? Do I need to drug test you guys? Don't look at this as a fan of Cowboys/Romo, look at this statistically. Rivers is going to have another Par season (95% probability) where as Romo (74.7% probability) is done with the Cowboys maybe even (34.86% chance) done with his active nfl playing career, even if he comes back in 8-10 weeks there is a (82.1% chance) he is a shell of his old self. To further my point, IF THEY EXPECTED ANYTHING OUT OF ROMO IF AND WHEN HE COMES BACK THEY WOULDN'T HAVE BROUGHT IN BUTT FUMBLE. Now addressing the point someone made about "they didn't put him on the IR and that he is still on the active roster", 1) Is it far fetched to think that they are doing that for the possibility another team offers a trade for him aiming for next year? (Not at all) 2) Romo's injury history arguably is the most of any QB in the past 5 or so years, giving none of us any reason to think this year is anything but bleak for him. Period. So to summarize Romo (crap stats, not even top 25 QB's if any stats) traded for Rivers (solid stats, 3,600 - 4,200+ yds 30+ tds 13 - 17 ints). The apitome of lopsided. #NumbersDontLie I love football.

Mikey Purp posted:Speaking of Sharpe, I'm holding him and Devante Parker but thinking about making a move because there seem to be some egregiously undervalued players left on the wire. Would you guys drop Lord Sharpe or Parker for one of these dudes: Yes No Yes Maybe Maybe No Maybe Maybe I'm low on Wallace, but I don't really expect much there. Garcon only if you need some sort of regular but unspectacular WR production. Stills seems to me to have the role locked down in Miami at the moment. Washington and Coleman both strike me as handcuffs that'll probably have some more regular playtime. Barring injury I'm not sure either will be a regular producer, but both I could see having value. Morris seems like a TD vulture at best unless Zeke gets hurt.

Teemu Pokemon posted:Like people have been actively waiting for Peterson to fall of the cliff and his red flags are essentially the same as Charles' for all intents and purposes. Peterson has literally 1000 more rushing attempts than Charles. He's been used as the bellcow in Minnesota since he came out of OU. Without missing significant time, his lowest season (15 games) he had 2 less carries than Charles most prolific season. There's no way Charles and Peterson have the same amount of wear. You can't have lived through the Thomas Jones year and expect us to believe that.

Leperflesh posted:ADP on Fantasy pros: While I wouldn't make the same trade, ADP is pretty much irrelevant. Murray is in a much more muddled situation than was expected at draft time, and Brady's ADP takes into account the suspension which is almost over. Redrafting today, Brady would be higher and Murray would be lower than they were a month ago.

BigFactory posted:Not enough of a sample size of these specific players performing together, or NE/McDaniels having 2 productive tight ends? I don't think it's crazy to think they both wind up top 10 TEs if healthy. I expect Bennett will finish the season well, his TDs to date are good enough to pretty much ensure a top half finish, but I bet you're playing whack-a-mole the whole year hoping to avoid the 2 point games and hit on the 20.

If they go whole hog and just use a short passing game instead of a running game, that'd be a plus for Rodgers, I think. And keep Montgomery and Cobb relevant in PPR.

The tricky bit of the whole thing is that they didn't really go to either Jackson or Davis much, and that whole role may be different next week after each has had some practice time.
