The only reason not to is so that people in other leagues not Sleeper related get the breaking alerts, but admittedly, that's a selfish reason. But it did help me out a couple of years ago when no one else had it installed and I did and picked up some FAs about 20 minutes earlier than anyone else.

this. Sleeper has won me leagues before. I'm never recommending sleeper for any league.

If having kids makes spending 24 hours (minus waffle time) in a waffle house sound great, then I'm sure glad I don't have any. I even like waffle house.

A guy in our 14 team Important League auto drafted and ended up with FIVE tight ends. He's a Ravens fan.

A guy in my league got auto drafted 4 TEs when we have no dedicated TE slot. Auto draft is especially brutal when you have nonstandard roster settings.

My Ty'Son or Jacobs for Godwin? No PPR. Would be a nice WR upgrade and still have enough startable RBs. Godwin burned me last year, but he looked really good on Thursday.

I could not believe it when DJ Moore fell to me at the end of the 9th round in a 10 team keeper league (standard scoring). There is a flex and superflex and we only start 2 dedicated WR so most teams do not need a ton of WR, but I was literally eyeing him from rounds 5+ but needed RBs since I lost Dobbins and everyone else had good RB keepers. I already had Lamb and Hopkins so I did not really need a starting WR that badly, but each round I definitely wanted him before picking 4 RB in a row from rounds 4-8. The main risk was that Anderson might end up the primary receiver, but that does not seem to be happening. Was a live draft and I pretty much slammed the sticker on the board 1 second into my pick.

He never seems to score touchdowns so he is kind of a high floor average ceiling player, but I will take 126 yards replacing Henderson as my flex.

Got him in the 8th in my non-superflex 10 team PPR league. Would've won last week if I started him instead of Amari Cooper or CEH :argh: Started him this week and I don't see him leaving his spot anytime soon.

ESPN thinks I have a 97% chance of winning. I have a 27 point lead and my opponent has Hurts left. Hurts scored 28 points week 1 in this league, the Cowboys are not exactly known for their great defense. I am going to lose.

I was able to grab Dallas in 2 leagues. Panthers this week without CMC, and then onto like NYG and NE. I like them till their bye, I think.

Carolina didn't have much trouble moving the ball last week after CMC went down, though that was against Houston. Maybe I'll target Dallas next week.

The Zack posted:

Even though they've been underachieving, I like Washington here. ATL might be just what they need to get right.

Tennessee is not a bad play. I just don't expect a top 5 performance from them.

I think I'll go WFT. Thanks for the advice.

I need to pick up a D this week. I have the Bills and Clyde Edwards-Helaire (KC) as a RB, so I'd like to avoid them negating each other. I also have Goedert (PHI) as my TE. Here are the top remaining ones in our league (10 team, non-ppr, regular scoring):



I'm terrible at this kind of decision making (LV would be senisble, but ATL is playing the Jets...), so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction

am I crazy for Believing in cordarelle? he's kinda the RB1B and WR1B at the same time, best case scenario. i don't expect him to play against adoree jackson and pals every week but the nature of the targets he's getting makes him feel spicy.
vs someone like, say, Kareem Hunt who is the firm 2nd running back. it feels crazy to even say the two are comparable but I think I actually like cordy better rest of season. the browns will get many more yards and touchdowns than the falcons so maybe not.

Keep rolling with Cordarelle until he stops producing. I strongly doubt he can keep it up all season, but until it stops I don't think you can bench that kind of production.

This is a good thread question, what is everyones’ thoughts on alerting your opponent to injuries?

I personally wouldn’t notify people they are starting a BYE player, that is something you should pay attention to. Same goes for a player who has been Q all week or most of the weekend and then gets ruled out before game time. That information is all easily accessible in the days leading up to the game.

The one case I would send a text to my opponent is if they had an otherwise healthy player suddenly get injured the day or morning before a start. Never know what peoples’ weekend schedule is and not everyone has time to check their team every hour of every Sunday morning.

Take care of your own team, don't make it harder for yourself. I would (and have) alert an opponent of someone I want to lose that they need to make some changes.

I would start Burrow over Rodgers with no Adams/Lazard.

Tonyan might actually be a good play with those WRs out.
