Honestly if he's on an NFL roster week 1 it wouldn't surprise me if a team ran gimmick plays to try to get him a TD. If you're in a bad position streaming TEs he might be worth a stupid gamble for a stupid position.

I feel like I've been trying to get used to Sleeper for a long time but I still struggle to find things and it still runs really slowly on my phone as well. It's got some great features and I like that the dev team genuinely cares about their platform, unlike ESPN that only removes features nowadays and never adds anything interesting. If it's a casual office league, ESPN by far has the lowest barrier to entry and I don't know that I would suggest Sleeper to coworkers.

Are there any last-minute "casual" leagues forming that have a spot open? I looked at other threads and the past few pages of this one but it seemed like they've all filled up and/or already drafted.

Many thanks, and good luck to you all in your keeper/money leagues. :thurman:

We have one spot left for a casual auction league that's drafting Friday at 8:30 eastern if you are interested and can make it. It's on Sleeper.

We are not allowing autodrafting though since it's intended to help out some folks who haven't done auction before but are interested.

In dynasty I just got offered:

Me - Allen Robinson

Him - CEH and a 2nd

The dude is likely to be close to last due to injuries already. His QBs are also rookies and trash. I feel like I should mash accept? I have Jefferson and Woods still at WR so it's not like I'm thin there.

why does he get a 2nd and the better dynasty option? Dunno how much ARob offers you.

Schultz is absolutely worth a flyer, I agree there. I was still thinking more in terms of trade value where, despite early successes, he's still in the amorphous tight end blob that could finish anywhere between like TE3 and TE16.

I have already dropped all my non-dynasty shares of Henry. If he comes back it's going to be way late and a desperation fantasy play - more likely that the team is in a position to rest him based on division seeding then anyway

Yeah this is where I stand. I will try to beat someone, but I don't think you should gently caress with someone else's money. I think waiting until waivers clear is a solid compromise. I'll still try my best to win, but let the guys in the running get first say.

If you aren't putting your best lineup in every week then you're loving with somebody since you're making it easier for your opponent to get a win

rank these WRs and DSTs for a week _15_ stash in PPR:

Julio Jones @ PIT
Amon-Ra St Brown vs ARI
AJ Green @ DET

CLE vs LV
KC @ LAC
DEN vs CIN
GBP @ BAL

trying to figure what to do with my bottom couple of roster slots for a team locked into the wildcard

I'd go in that exact order for defenses with a STRONG preference to Cleveland. Flip Julio and Amon-Ra for WRs but none of those three are particularly juicy unless there's confirmation that Julio's role will return at all.

I was thinking about doing a a guillotine league but don't like the idea of complete elimination so I came up with this overly complicated setup. Would love to hear some feedback or ways in which it wouldn't work.
  • Teams start with $100 in FAAB and have shallow benches. Traditional roster setup.
  • Like a guillotine league, each week the lowest-scoring N number of teams (where N is the week number) are disbanded and lose all FAAB; they must drop their entire roster. However, the team is not eliminated; they can rebuild from free agency and eventually waivers.
  • Each week, every team gets $10 in FAAB for each team they outscore (or maybe $10*N instead).
  • Before the games start each week, teams can 1:1 convert any amount of FAAB to victory points. Any FAAB converted in this way is lost forever.
  • The team with the most victory points at the end of the season wins.
This creates the ability for eliminated owners to continue and build a competitive team through free agency/waivers. It also creates a risk/reward system for banking FAAB into victory points; you can keep it to build the best team but risk losing it all from an unlucky week, or play it safe and bank but lose out on free agents.

Not sure I totally get it but I'd be down for a super weird league like this haha
