Did someone ask about when you should draft a TE because I thought we already decided that the only correct answer is never

My friend is adamant that David Johnson is RB1 over LVB which I think is p funny but isn't necessarily anything more than a difference of preference, but when he says that he'd take him at 1.1 I'm like

True facts put that poo poo on a Snapple capMrSargent posted:I would say that thinking David Johnson is better than LVB is way more than a difference of preference and is actually borderline crazy. Johnson has started 6 NFL games and while yes he looked great, his stats are really padded by the monstrosity of a game he had against the worst run defense in the NFL. I think he will be a great RB but don't make the mistake of extrapolating 6 games across an entire season. I would definitely take him in the second, i just think he isn't a sure enough thing for a first rounder. I mean, I agree with you wholeheartedly, but I also agree with Tiptoes, so I can't really hate on him for ranking DJ over LVB even if It's Wrong, but I just think that the idea that either of them (it's LVB) is even remotely close to worth being picked over AB/OBJ/Julio (he's not) is loving ludicrous Teemu Pokemon fucked around with this message at 08:02 on May 28, 2016 |

I'm literally just as willing to bet that Ebron or ASJ will be a top-7 TE as I am willing to bet on Reed/Eifert/Kelce/Barnidge/Walker. Especially the first two since we're already willing to just assume their one healthy productive season isn't the outlier which is funny since Eifert is already hurt

If you're in a return yards league, Jarvis Landry is a legit low-end WR1, dude was so money last year
|
# ¿ Jun 3, 2016 17:21 |

Yeah except Landry is already a WR2 that's mostly underdrafted and those 700 return yards push him into top-10 territory while his ADP still sitting at mid-range WR2

Landry goes from 16 to like 8 and Lockett and Abdullah will still go late enough that you can target them and reasonably get them regardless of where you're drafting. Whereas, you may only get one shot at Landry because of your draft slot and if you're in a return yards league (especially PPR), you should totally "reach" on him because he's the BPA. So basically, yes, we're both right but goddamn Jarvis Landry in a return yards league is a game changer.

MrSargent posted:It more comes down to the rooting for X player factor. I mean, that's precisely the issue that I'm getting down on. You root for Your Fantasy Team. Chances are that you're going to have some kind of rear end in a top hat on your team, and for you to pick and choose which kinds of douchebaggery that you condone in the name of a numbers game is pretty deeply steeped in hypocrisy. Either you're trying to win, or you're not. If you want to have a problem with what goes on out outside of the numbers, you need to be morally consistent. I hate myself for how much I love fantasy when I'm staunchly opposed to everything the NFL stands for and don't support them in any single instance, but I Guess I'm At Least Aware. We're all terrible and no better than the people that we choose not to draft.

I'm pretty close to wanting OBJ over Julio though so let's not get crazy. Eli > Ryan and the Giants running game is pretty lackluster compared to Atlanta. Also, Atlanta are apparently wizards and just continually have a RuTD:PaTD ratio that's like 2 standard deviations above the mean

Unless it's a 2 QB or superflex league (e: or you're in some crazy 16+ team league), I don't see the point in keeping Smith when you have Rodgers, that's an easy drop for me that I'd make before even thinking about who the other 4 should be. If you're going to carry a backup, you should be trying to get younger anyway.

RVProfootballer posted:He's only 32, is a fine mid/low QB2, a backup QB is required at least one week a year, and most importantly isn't Jarius Wright or Cecil Shorts. Even in an 8 team, 1 QB league, ~QB20 is more valuable than ~WR80 or 100 or wherever you'd out Shorts and Wright. If there's 12 teams or less, it's nearly impossible to not replace his value without having to burn a keeper spot; if there's 14, it's a littler harder but definitely not impossible. Bonus points if you can get someone on the right side of 30 who can throw a football more than 12 yards. I would love to know that league size and the protected/free agent QB pools, because I literally can't imagine that it's so barren than keeping Alex Smith to start one game a year is even remotely close to an intelligent thing to do. It's very likely that there's the Cutler/Flacco/Staffords of the world that are likely to not be kept either and you could grab one of them or Smith again in the draft or as a UDFA and be no worse for wear. e: not saying that I wouldn't cut Shorts either, but Thompson and Spiller ( ) as a lottery ticket should easily have some more value at this present moment in time than an easily replaceable back-up QB that you will need for less than 7% of the season. e2: It's disingenuous to say that a mid-to-low range QB2 is unilaterally valuable. If you're going to a QBBC or streaming, then yes, but if you have a bonafide QB1, you literally don't need a backup on your roster for any week except that guy's bye Teemu Pokemon fucked around with this message at 18:10 on Jun 17, 2016 |

I guess I'm just of the opinion that if I have a top-end QB1, I would rather have a 1-in-1,000,000 lottery ticket in the pre-season than almost any back-up QB. e: And if we're in agreement that there's likely better FAs available, there shouldn't be any reason to burn a keeper spot on a guy that you know you can easily replace.

Maybe I'm confused because that's what it sounds like? It's also not taking into account that on Rodgers' bye you're going to end up having to start Alex loving Smith who you probably could've improved upon in the draft and is now your best option because any better players than him that were out there were probably ignored because you didn't want to be the moron carrying 3 QBsRVProfootballer posted:Goddammit how'd I know All back-up QBs are worthless if you have any QB on your roster who is QB7 or better. quote:Excellent, now argue why Jarius Wright or Cecil Shorts are worth more than this.
