Since I took Mariota over him, I think you are wrong.  Whoever drafted Jordan Matthews, come in here and defend your pick so we can mock you for taking Jordan Matthews.

Doug Martin was incredible value, even with the suspension. There is no real competition he's facing on that roster. John Brown is also underrated in my opinion. He's really good and his season was derailed by health issues out of his control last year. But there is no way he would've fallen this far in last year's draft and I think he's poised to make the leap we all expected him to make last year.

Leperflesh posted:Martin was near the top of my next pick list, yeah. I think he has three more games to sit out, but pocket hamster is gonna be fine after that I assume. I also had some hope for Gore falling to me. He's hella old, but old man Gore just keeps chugging. Gore is a guy I will keep drafting regardless of age until he proves me wrong. I just missed him.

I had him ready in the previous two rounds, but Benjamin falling was too good and I got scared I'd lose a quarterback and took Mariota. Honestly, I am loving my draft. I can't wait until week four when half my roster is on IR and someone quotes this. Also, how did Shepherd drop so far. I'm not as high on him as some, but his ADP is way too low. I considered him over Brown, but I had to go with my gut.

Yeah, but he was saying they were not listening to him about issues he was having in his rehab. He made it seem like their recommendation to retire was because they didn't want to pay him. He burned me too, but in the tenth round, he's the ideal boom/bust candidate. If he's healthy, he's the starter. But it's all or nothing. But I'm a gambler!

Tiptoes posted:Thielen, Doyle, and Ebron are all good value this round. Ebron is way undervalued. The only reason he didn't finish in the top five is because he was hurt. Of course, he is always hurt, which is why you shouldn't draft him in the top five. But he's a great flyer.

Tiptoes posted:Ebron's red zone target share isn't great is my only hangup with him now. That'll probably keep him out of the Top 5 even if he's healthy. If the RBs weren't as involved in the Lions passing game as they are, his TD upside would be much higher. But things are spread too thin between all the position groups. I agree, but he was getting a lot of targets in the passing game before he got hurt, which just means more opportunities.

I was hoping to go Tannehill/Tyrod for my picks, since I am nervous about Mariota and wanted to cover my bases. As for Stewart, frankly I'm surprised he lasted this long. I think Mccaffery is going to be a more passing / 3rd down back and we'll see Stewart more as the feature back.

I think Maclin is way undervalued. One bad year in a player who has been consistent throughout his career deserves the benefit of the doubt. If I hadn't grabbed so many receivers early, I probably would have taken him much earlier. This is my favorite type of value pick, because it pays off so regularly. Even when it doesn't become a home run, it still is frequently great draft positional value.

VietCampo posted:Yea i would've grabbed Maclin if i didn't already have like 6 WR2's already, he lasted longer than i thought he would. I had Marlon Mack ahead of him and I gave strong consideration to Williams, but McDermott feels like he is going to completely torpedo the Bills. I think there is a strong chance that he goes full Josh McDaniels there. Has that dictator bullshit even worked in the last ten years? I don't include Bellichek, because Bill plays it cool when he does it.

Because I have been slacking. 14.02 Dion Lewis Great fifth RB value for PPR. In a time share, but should have a few good games to make it worthwhile in best ball format. 15.11KCC DEF Been a top fantasy defense for a couple years, with great special teams play. Defenses started going here and this was as good as any. 16.02Zach Miller Was a great producer last year until he got hurt. Solid #2 TE in best ball. 17.11NYG DEF Nice stacked defense. Lots of talent. Should be able to generate pressure and hopefully turnovers. I think they are gonna have some big, individual games. 18.02C.J. Fiedorowicz I needed a third TE and he felt like the safest option. 19.11CHI DEF Everyone wondering why the Bears didn't address defense much in free agency is ignoring what they did the year prior. There is a lot of young depth being developed and I am banking on Vic Fangio remaining one of the top defensive coordinators in the league. Homer pick 20.02Mike Glennon Third quarterback. Gonna be a starter. Just in case Mariota and Tannehill die. Will probably need to air it out a lot.

I feel like being three deep at QB, TE and DEF is essential to succeeding in best ball format. I think my strategy ended up being flawed throughout, because I always felt like I was chasing with certain picks. I hate when I feel like I'm the last guy grabbing players on a positional run.

Leperflesh posted:The Glennophant Man/Sataere On QB, there was a run before Mariota dropped to me, which sucked hard, so I doubled down to protect myself. As for Glennon, I think he's starting the year. John Fox will want a veteran. I feel he's a good hedge. For RB, I pretty much agree with you on it being scary thin. Dion Lewis is a guy I like with a decent PPR floor. Stewart was value. Crowell is good, but I'm not completely sold. Martin scares me, but his value was too good. Howard is the only guy I'm comfortable with. I think he has a high floor and high ceiling. I don't think it's homerism either. I saw him last year and he's just good. My WR depth is why my RB and QB depth sucks  TE is fine. Zach Miller Is A TE1 when healthy. I will enjoy the five games I get from him. He's a glorified receiver. DEF I disagree. KC has been top five consistently and with ST touchdowns and Tyreek Hill, I feel comfortable with them. Giants DEF is stacked and I feel they provide a good balance. I wanted a third DEF because DEF is really inconsistent year to year. I'm just betting on Vic Fangio. It's a swing for the fences lottery pick. EDIT: I think you are pretty on point.

I'm glad you guys seem to like my draft. I'm going to get into my process a bit on why my team looks the way it does. This is my first slow draft, but I find that it is very similar in format to the Cheating for Charity league and I treated my approach as such. The nice thing about the beer league is that it isn't as important that you have the top tier players at their position. Having boom/bust guys balanced with floor guys can really allow for tons of big scores. I think this de-emphasizes the quarterback position even more than it already is. Because all you need is a couple second level tier players to provide points. Three starting quarterbacks is optimal, because you give yourself the best opportunity for someone to hit, while providing a safety net at floor. I use that same approach for defense and tight end. With defense, I think having three options is important also, because defense can provide a decent chunk of points on a weekly basis if you get the top one. The problem is defense is hard to predict from year to year. KC has Toub and Hill, so I feel they add a special teams element and they've been good. NYG has so much talent, especially across their front line. Chicago has invested a ton of capital into their front seven and have one of the best defensive coordinators, so they are a nice upside pick. And once again, I just need one of three to gave a big week on a given week. For TE, I just wanted a guy who has been consistently good and guys to back him up that see targets and are clear number ones. Running back and wide receiver were interesting. My running back depth suffered because I tended to draft for floor instead of ceiling. In my first eight picks, I only took Howard in the first and Crowell in the first. I wanted more running backs early, but the quality of receiver talent trumped it. And frankly, half the running backs are going to miss significant time. In best ball, I'd rather my talent be on the receiving side. My roster composition was deliberate, although I would have preferred one more running back. But hedging injuries is very important to success, in my opinion. Sataere fucked around with this message at 21:04 on Jun 21, 2017 |
