Well, I'm glad at this late stage of the game, I can still piss people off. If you didn't want me to take him, you all should not take the players I was actually targeting.

Thanks everyone! We took 10 days for 20 rounds. Not too bad considering we had a Fourth of July holiday. No one was permanently auto picking, which was a plus.

Little observations from the draft:

Only one team grabbed four quarterbacks : Spoeank’s Special

Two teams maxed out their RBs at 8: 89 Best Ballz and The Fantom MeNoahce

However, Fantom MeNoahce is playing with fire and only drafted 1 tight end, George Kittle. Can Kittle compensate for that bye zero?

Meanwhile, JPP’s 4th of July Fingat Memorial, Standard Team Name, and Team Blasphemy72 went the other way and grabbed 4 TEs.

WRs were obviously popular.

10 WRs: Team Wismail
9 WRs: Dat Cat rear end, Fantom MeNoahce
8 WRs: Ben’s Best Ball Boys, Chonk Tiger

Thanks again to everyone for participating in my first best ball league. I plan to keep this thread updated with weekly standings. Good luck to all!

I didn't really mean to go so WR heavy, but I just kept getting value, then I got to a point where only receivers weren't trash.

Unsurprisingly, perhaps, I'm Ben's Best Ball Boys. I probably would have preferred one more decent RB. I'm a little nervous about only 2 QB, but I couldn't convince myself Manning or Haskins or someone was worth it. I wound up grabbing extra WRs after being unsatisfied with my pick of Boyd. I debated by and forth between Harry and MVS, and probably would be happier opting for the latter.

Well, week 1 is in the books, and it's time to check the standings.



LesBeardly - 195.8
Drunk Nerds - 191.8
Sataere - 185.2
? - 182.1
Silly Burrito - 172.1
89 - 157.2

Jabro - 144.2
Braksgirl - 138.5

Congratulations LesBeardly on becoming the week 1 champion. Tales will be told of your cunning, wit, and bravery, I'm sure.



Will LesBeardly keep his championship next week or will he be dethroned? Is everyone still happy about their team or are they just shaking their heads in defeat now? We've still got 15 weeks to go, so there's plenty of time for cheers and laments.

Your humble commissioner had the most points for the week with 182.3. Thanks Pat Mahomes!



Will LesBeardly keep his championship next week or is the third time the charm for someone else?

Quick update this week: The king has been dethroned, and a new king takes the place for this week!

I'm the leader with 538.9 points, and LesBeardly is now in second place with 525 points.



Silly Burrito - 538.9
LesBeardly - 525
Spoeank - 466.2
Sataere - 460.7
Drunk Nerds - 457.2
Ben Nevis - 445.7
Pain of Mind - 443.4
? - 438.8
Braksgirl - 411.5
Jabro - 379.1
? - 367.9
89 - 328.7

I also had the high score of the week with 184.4. Go me! :D



But the only constant is change, so we'll see what happens next week, and if LesBeardly and I swap back and forth, or if a new challenger rises up and knocks us both down.

If only we could change our lineup...



Well then.
