Scott Fish Bowl 12 live draft today, first 10 rounds. Not a fan of taking Goedert there and missing on Cooks and Mike Williams but I anticipated a TE run that didn't come. But now I have a DOUBLE STACK with Brady/Evans and Hurts/Goedert Rules are weird (TEP, Sflex, completion percentage matters) Michael Thomas was sort of a dead zone upside pick

But now I have a DOUBLE STACK with Brady/Evans and Hurts/Goedert Really nice draft so far. I have no shares of MT at all this year but I kind of like him in that spot. You have a ton of upside, and a few stacks, so it seems like a great chance to take a flyer on a guy that's a literal league winner. \/ I don't honestly, hence the no shares. But in a draft like the one I quoted I kind of like the chance on MT. Mostly because I'm really high on Evans this season and there should be enough flex/WR talent in round 10+ for him to find more value there. That said, I can't see the board so who knows. fennesz fucked around with this message at 21:53 on Jul 10, 2022 |

Do we think Michael Thomas will be relevant again? Someone just tried to trade him to me for Breece Hall which I basically laughed at but I'm wondering if anyone thinks he could actually be worth something or if he's Josh Gordon and it's basically over

I have to drop one of these players in a 15-keeper league (aka basically dynasty). With that many keepers + a deep bench, you can be sure you can't easily pick up a replacement QB or TE for a bye week off the wire. We start 1 QB / 2 RB / 3 WR / 1 TE / 1 RB/WR/TE Flex: RB Derrick Henry Elijah Mitchell Rhamondre Stevenson Alexander Mattison Ronald Jones WR Justin Jefferson Dionte Johnson Rashod Bateman Gabriel Davis JuJu Smith-Schuster DeAndre Hopkins Michael Thomas TE Travis Kelce Dallas Goedert QB Jalen Hurts Aaron Rodgers As you can see I've had wayy better luck drafting WRs than RBs. We use a non-snaking draft and I won last year, so I'll be picking at #12, #24, etc. So I won't be able to draft a usable RB this year and, as a result, I feel pretty sketch about dropping down to 4 RBs by dumping Jones, especially since Mattison is a handcuff. That said, I also can't imagine dumping Michael Thomas, Hopkins, JuJu, or Goedert. I could see dumping Aaron Rodgers at this point in his career, but as I said, I wouldn't be able to get a viable backup for Hurts without trading. Any thoughts on who I drop?

Weirdly as weak as your RB's are I'd probably let RoJo drop. Hopkins and MT all have glaring issues headed into this year but they have huge upside if they hit, especially rolling into fantasy playoffs. And I expect the Eagles to look a lot more functional this year and would have a hard time letting go of Goedert. I'd drop: RoJo, MT, Goedert and Hopkins in that order.

What I've seen from Mattison looks very promising and I am hoping he is a starting RB when his rookie contract runs out. When you can't draft starting RBs directly, your only chance to get starters over the years is to draft backups and hope they're talented and then hold them till they're able to start. I am surprised that no one else felt like dropping Rodgers was a decent option, but outside of that, I am inclined to agree that Rojo and MT are the main drop contenders, which just feels crazy to me given that MT was the top WR a couple of years ago, but that's the way it goes. Brees is gone and MTs been injured a bunch.

I am no Fantasty paragon or anything so take this with a grain of salt, but I would cut Slant Man without a second thought. Payton is gone. Brees is gone. The OL will be worse. Kamara might miss time due to assaulting someone on video at the pro bowl. The rest of the WRs are questionmarks. And most of all, MT himself is a huge questionmark. Will he be anywhere near his old self having not played a snap in what, two years? Catching passes from a different, and worse, QB in a edit: especially considering your existing talent at WR already. I feel like if you drop MT you still have a whole serviceable team and could draft BPA with 12 instead of dropping a RB or QB that could start for you and hoping some sort of replacement is available there. RoJo could take over as the starter eventually (a tonnn of people are down on CEH). I agree with you that Mattison has long term upside and is a top-tier handcuff to have if Cook gets hurt or (unlikely) the domestic abuse allegations against him turn into something (not likely I dont think, but new info could emerge).

I think you convinced me it's time to part ways with Michael Thomas. I won last year with him on IR the whole time anyway. Agree with taking the best player available when drafting at the end of a non-snake. You gotta get value where you can. The problem is that in this situation that always means taking a WR, which is how I ended up with this team to begin with. Who knows, maybe I'll get lucky with a 'late round' rookie RB like I did with Mitchell last year (although I also drafted Sermon who I have to drop).

CEH is rear end. The Chiefs have a dominating run-blocking line and he's never had one carry go farther than 30 yards and only 3 went over 20 yards. CEH either has horrible vision or he no longer has the speed to hit holes if he sees them, which I doubt. https://twitter.com/tejfbanalytics/status/1532022058024050694 RoJo doesn't have super vision either apparently but being average would make him the starter in KC. Because they don't have the guts to start McKinnon

If the argument is whether CEH will continue to have a role, you gotta also look at pass blocking and 3rd down rout-running and catching. As a long-time owner of KC RBs in fantasy, I've constantly been screwed by the committee approach there and I see no reason why that won't continue. I don't think CEH's ability or inability to break out big runs matters much in that offense.

There's risk to it, but taking the trade and dealing JT (and maybe Wilson) during the season to a contender could also pay off massively. A contender with 3 decent QBs could definitely deal a top 5 QB for Taylor to make a push, and then it's close to a free Russ for you.

Ok guys, I finally made the plunge and joined a (already ongoing) Dynasty league. Needless to say since I got the guy who lefts team it's hot garbage: QB's: Josh Allen, Joe Burrow RB's: David Montgomery, Mark Ingram, Kenyan Drake WR's: Stephon Diggs, Tyreek Hill, Marvin Jones, Jakobi Myers TE: Evan Ingram D/ST: Dallas Kicker: Mason Crosby Obviously I have a rebuild. One of the other owners offered my McCaffery for Allen and the 2nd overall pick in the Rookie Draft. Do I do that? I'm not a big fan of McCaffery right now due to his recent injury history but I understand he's probably a top 5 dynasty guys still. Would I rather have Hill or Walker in the Rookie Draft and try to rebuild that way? Clearly my RB's are hot garbage.

I mean I kind of believe in James Cook. I think I'd draft him over Walker. I recognize that he isn't Dalvin Cook and that Singletary is the starter. But let me preach for a second: he averaged 6.5 ypc in college and 9.4 yards per catch and didn't drop ONE loving PASS in 78 targets. Georgia rode White into the ground and he has the two torn ACLs to prove it. Cook was drafted two rounds earlier than his teammate. Singetary is unimpressive and I feel the same way about Zack Moss. I really tried to get Cook and was snaked. I know people are going to say that you shouldn't compare him to his brother but that ypc though! I think he is going to get a lot of opportunities in Buffalo. I just can't recommend trading Josh Allen though that's tough in dynasty. He's a horse. I worry about his health in the long game though. edit: why did I even mention Zack Moss lol ESPN's projections are 4.97 fantasy points all season lol kiimo fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Jul 12, 2022 |
