Must have been one person in charge of it that kept it from happening. Now that he is gone the ff developers are going to make BIG CHANGES

I got into a situation where people kept drafting rbs ahead of me and there wasn't anyone worth the pick, so now I have poo poo rbs and a bunch of wrs. My starting rbs are Crowell and Powell, starting WRs are jones, cooks, Tate.

Cmon Hue make Crowell shiiiine

I drafted ware in like the 10th in hopes of his injury only lasting half a year lol

Well Hunter Henry, that was disappointing. Now I have to waiver claim Charles clay as an attempt to have a TE do something besides block... ugh

Also can't believe I won when I was down 40 with Rivers, Diggs, MN DS/T, and Henry left. Thank you fantasy gods.

Bumping this question because Im curious too, since I may have to adjust my bid. And as an Allen RObinson Guy, should I go after Kupp or Marqise Lee? 0.5 PPR league

I'm hanging on to him because we have super deep benches, but yikes. Definitely next on drop list if anyone good comes up

The guy playing had David Johnson. I see why he did it, it was just not the best drop he could've made, obviously.

I mean, yeah, if it was a mistake, take it back, but in context it's understandable. At which point do you as a commissioner say "No, that was a bad drop, take it back." and when do you let it stand?

The only argument I can think of is that whoever has waiver #1 gets a good receiver for nothing and could alter the balance of the league...maybe.

Which two wrs does he have better than cooper, top 3 even for flex + bye

Silly Burrito posted:

Desean Jackson, Brandin Cooks, Corey Coleman are the only three WRs he has now.

I understand that he wanted Ellington to replace DJ, but yeah, I wouldn't have dropped Cooper. Then again, this is the same guy who drafted Jordy Nelson that year he was hurt with his second round pick, then ended up winning the whole league. Fantasy is a fickle mistress. :shrug:

I'd drop any of them before cooper, feels like collusion or too stupid to play

A good bench should have lottery ticket RBs and reliable backup WRs. The lottery ticket RBs are for trading, starting when your lovely RB picks that you grabbed late because you went WR WR WR get hurt or benched, or cutting for your streaming QB/Defense/TE.

My lovely rbs and lottery tickets are all garbage lmao gently caress

My running backs fuckin suck, but somehow I managed to score 104 in spite of their 15 points and rivers 3 (!!), now I need Elliot and the cardinals D to combine for less than 22. Please be a high scoring through the air shootout

I don't understand why you think he wins this trade.

The guy he's trading has Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers but is starting Chris Carson at RB and Andre Ellington in his flex . He's in a 10 man league. Those players don't even start in 14 team leagues. He has absolutely no leverage, especially against someone starting Mariota. I wouldn't even trade Diggs or Martin separately for Aaron Rodgers. Why would you give an opponent, who in a 10 man league you'll probably play twice in, so much for so little?

Chris Carson is definitely starting in a 14 team league, poo poo he is starting in my 12

One guy in my 12-man has autodrafted two years in a row, and rarely makes any waiver moves.

He won last year, is currently 3rd this year.

Fantasy isn't some super hard ~gonna be the best~ game, it is basically random bullshit. You could read espn and win leagues easily, there just isn't that much you can do to give yourself an advantage.

Ok so this isn't the first time I have seen ESPN gently caress up Defensive scoring and I am wondering if anyone else has the same issue. Look at the Points Allowed by Miami. Any suggestions on what to do?



Espn stopped counting points scored by the other teams defense against the defense which wasn’t on the field

This is a good thing

Tired: Josh Gordon had 11 targets? Nice.

Wired: wait 4 catches on 11 targets what is Kizer doing

He'll be fine with all them ~air yards~. First game was a push on the start him or sit him out of the gate and it'll only get better from here.

Kizer is horrendous, luckily he is on the Browns so no one blinks an eye at how bad he is

This may be a dumb question, but oh well. So I commission a league at the private club I work at - myself and 13 of my members. It's an auction league and I brought up the possibility of making it keeper at the draft and was shot down. Now I've got about 5 of them expressing interest in making our league a keeper league. I'm not opposed to it and everyone has at least 1 person they can keep at a reasonable price so no one will really get the shaft.

Is it a good idea to bring this up to a league vote at our end of the season party? If everyone is okay with it, I want to make it as fair as possible. So I guess I'm really just looking for ideas...

Can’t start it this season imo. no keepers this year, but bring it up before the draft for the next year
