i won anyway. part 2 of the finals was today, my opponents team that he put together through some questionable trades and the whole deebo incident? yeah they were all from clinched teams which meant they were DOA this week. his season was over by the 1pm games, i had josh allen and the miami kicker left to play and with him unable to earn any more points, I decided to drive the nail in the coffin.

My favorite part of fantasy this year was watching goons win against some bullshit circumstances and be righteously petty about it :sickos:

Yeah this is a wild coaching carousel year. And whatever happens the collective fantasy community will get most of it wrong in hindsight :v: I know I sure bought some of these 2023 narratives

Kellen Moore will make the Chargers the best offense in the NFL (maybe they would have been good but they all immediately died as is the Charger Way so who knows)

Fat Mike and :schotty: will make every Cowboy except Pollard undraftable

Aaron Rodgers will make Garrett Wilson a top 3 receiver

The Pats will make a huge leap with a real OC instead of Patricia

The Bucs and Rams will be total rear end competing for top draft picks

TLaw will take a huge step forward as a top QB

Etc etc

Doing a playoff fantasy survivor thing for the first time ever. Where you can only use each player once? Anyone have any advice or strategy? I’m sure the general rule everyone will follow is to try to save the players of the most favored teams, and hope they actually move on. Maybe it would be smart to buck the trend of everyone else? Idk

Can you say more about the format or link to the rules or something? Is this like you build a DFS lineup each week and once you use a player you can't use them in future weeks? Are you dead if you don't advance each week or is it most total points after the super bowl?

Obvious thing is to fill out a playoff bracket and then work backwards. You need some guys live in the Super Bowl so you can't burn your favorites in earlier weeks. Use the guys on teams you expect to lose in the wildcard round, like Dolphins and Steelers. But if you feel like your lineup in a given week sucks you could burn one or two guys on super bowl favorites to get you through.

Yea my bad. 1 QB 2 RB 2 WR 1 TE each week. Can only use any given player once for the entirety of the playoffs. Half ppr. Most total points at the end of the playoffs wins.

Going with this lineup for wildcard weekend:

QB: Tua
RB: Achane
RB: White
WR: Evans
WR: Nacua
WR: Pickens
TE: Kraft

Thoughts?

BUT THEY WILL
Same as all season, what other option do you have besides Pickens?

RCarr
Dec 24, 2007

I mean I can play any player, but the idea is to play guys on teams you think will lose so you have starters available the rest of the way. I def don’t have to play Pickens tho. Basically just hoping he rips off a long TD in the poo poo weather.

Nico Collins is an option with a high ceiling on a team projected to lose. Think I'd prefer him over Pickens even though the Cleveland D is good.

Kind of a crazy story. I don’t play this stuff at all so it didn’t affect me personally but some guys I follow caught an employee of a fantasy site cheating in a high stakes contest. They have receipts in the form of screenshots before and after roster lock (cause they were right next to this team and were sharing it around for the sweat) and also literal logs on the site of moves being made after lock lol. Multiple times by the same guy. Pretty bad look!

Does anyone want to speak in favor of divisions in fantasy? I joined a new league this year that uses them. The other division is basically the NFC south, I have four hundred more points and two more wins than their leader but am in third and not going to get a playoff bye as things currently stand. This seems dumb as hell in a game that is already extremely random

Divisions are fun in long running leagues with established rivalries. If it is a new league for everyone, it is dumb as loving hell. If you jumped in on a long running league, it makes more sense. Rivalries that extend decades are fun as poo poo. Still kind of dumb.

Would you guys move Rachaad White and the 9th overall pick for a Bijan Robinson or Jahmyr Gibbs? 12 team Ppr dynasty.

White’s numbers looked good this year but I think Tampa is going to bring someone else in, they were not a good rushing team last year and I think it’ll eat into White’s workload. Plus very little RB depth in this year’s rookie draft and while there should be a good wideout on the board I already have Waddle, DeVonta Smith, Puka, and JSN. My RBs right now are Henry, White, and a bunch of young lottery tickets so I think I need young talent there in the worst way.

If someone is actually willing to do that deal with you then take it in a heartbeat. If I owned either of those rbs no way I'm moving them for that though

Divisions can make everyone’s schedule a bit more fair depending on the size of the league. You can organize it so you play everyone in your division twice and everyone else once rather than the typical schedule which you play some teams twice and most once.

Of course it can still end up not making any difference at all depending on your league mates so whatever.
