RCarr posted:Yea I traded Kelce for Mixon a few years ago on the advice from multiple people in this thread Well, cutting Mixon becomes an interesting option because you have a good chance at getting him back for half the cost, if you're willing to burn a first to do it. I don't hate Mixon on your team, I just hate him at that price. If you somehow end up with number one and get Harris, you can feel good letting him go. If you don't, you still have a good chance of getting a nice rookie and a discount on a RB who will get volume. Although looking at the top six rookies, I'd probably figure out a way to live with that contract. sourdough posted:Yeah Goff (or really any one of the QBs if you have a strong preference), Singletary, Jeff Wilson, and Fulgham are my easy cuts. Hunter Henry is fine if you really need the cap space, but I don't think you will after those cuts. This is probably what I'd do. Fulgham is a guy you can grab later if you really want him back. Singletary has limited upside in that offense. Those cuts net you an additional $23, so you can go to town on this draft and you'll have some cap space during the season. This is an interesting draft and I'd strongly consider trading one of those firsts down if you can get more capital. But only if you end up outside of the top three on the lottery. That'd make it easier to target a younger non-Lawrence QB to replace Goff and maybe grab an additional upside receiver. If I were you, I'd be dreaming of some combo of Harris/Chase/Pitts.

and it hasn’t worked out so good. I was just able to acquire Kittle though, so I’m set at TE for a long while.

I’m absolutely not an anti analytics or anti measurements guy, and I totally get how difficult scouting is, but I really think Elijah Moore is the type of guy that you could watch for twenty minutes in college and see he’ll be good.

My dynasty league is moving to Superflex in '22. I currently have one QB and have a year before the switch to get another one so QB is inflated in value.

I did not. I do, however, think CEH is going to be a lot better this season! Going through some numbers and he was near the tops in the NFL in yards after contact and near the bottom of the NFL in yards before contact. It's pretty obvious that run blocking was an issue last year and the Chiefs completely replaced their line with a wall of beef.

Yeah, if your league is moving to SF next year and you only have one QB then now is the time to start drafting like it's SF. Put Lawrence, Lance, and Fields just above where you have Chase and you're on your way. (Then put Pitts, Etienne, Williams, and Mac Jones in front of DeVonta Smith)

Etinne concerns me with Urban Meyer and Robinson. I also am pumping the brakes on Pitts but also because I have pretty good tight ends already. Javante Williams above DeVonta Smith yeah agree to disagree adjusted: Zach Wilson Trevor Lawrence Macorkle Jones Justin Fields Trey Lance Ja'Marr Chase Najee Harris Travis Etinne De'Vanta Smith Kyle Pitts Jalen Waddle Elijah Moore Javante Williams Rashod Bateman Kadarius Toney Terrace Marshall, Jr.

I'm at 1.04 as well (and 1.07 + 1.11) and I have it on good authority that the first three picks will be Lawrence, Wilson, and Harris. I'm hoping to get Lance at 1.04 and Chase at 1.07 if I don't trade out.

ha one of the guys that's drafting ahead of me has six (!) quarterbacks and that was when he didn't even know it was moving to Superflex. If he takes another QB people will go nuts. We're also going to put limits on the position so some of his ridiculous quarterbacks will be available on free agency. Dude has Joe Burrow Matt Ryan Matt Stafford Jared Goff Jimmy G Big Ben He was 2-11 last season

I can't imagine Ja'Marr Chase being available at 7 that seems insane to me. Also Trey Lance above Fields huh? I think Fields is a lot better and will be a match with Nagy. If you guys watched Bears games at all it was hilarious how many times a guy was wide open and Mitch hosed it up.

I guess it's important that in our PPR league you have one starting WR, RB and TE and then four WR/TE/RB flex spots. So running backs don't have a positional scarcity boost, you can start one running back and four wide receivers and then the value for running backs isn't inflated. So when looking at Chase who is projected at 180 points in my league vs Etinne who is projected at 169 (and I think that's high) I have to shed that old bias from previous fantasy leagues that favors running backs over wide receivers. While the top 3 scorers in my league last season were running backs, the next four were wide receivers and a tight end.

I appreciate the idea but as it is there aren't enough quarterbacks available for all the teams to even field two starting QBs when we switch over to the Superflex which is unfair to the teams that didn't prepare for it. Having one team horde all the QBs for zero reason is something we need to stop, at least at the switch. We tried to do it via trade and he demanded Alvin Kamara, a first round and a second round pick for Matt Ryan. unfortunately there isn't a great way to make a switch to superflex when you just drop it on a league four years in. It's basically finding the least painful course of action now.

I'd agree, there's no fair way to swap a league to SF mid stream. It's why I wouldn't try. But I definitely wouldn't think the fair solution is to just...take QBs from one team.

What are the current platforms that support a customized best ball league? Fantrax and Sleeper are the only two I know, and Sleeper doesn't allow an odd amount of players.

I mean, sorry I didn't explain this but we're giving him and everybody else a year before the switch to prepare. The attempt to do it this year was 24 hours of bitching by literally everyone in the league for different reasons. So we're not just shaving off players, he has a year to get down to four QBs. I mean it can be accomplished by straight up cutting Jimmy G and Goff.

If Jimmy g and goff have no value, then there's no reason to force him to cut them. If they do, then find a deal that works or accept he's got them rostered. It doesn't really seem tough at all to me; setting a roster cap specifically to target one team is not cool. Just redraft or let people keep like 6 players and redraft - it's much more fair than your plans. Alternatively, since QBs are not top scorers in your league, tell people to just flex non-QB instead.

I'm not a big dynasty guy, but changing positional requirements without some element of redraft doesn't make sense to me. It's a rule change, and any rules change should affect all teams equally or it is unfair by definition.

The idea of Pitts being the number three TE next year is laughable though. I love him, but the odds of him finishing that high are low. You shouldn't expect much from rookies for dynasty. I do think in three years there is a very strong chance he is the consensus number on tight end for multiple years and that positional advantage is huge.
