Fantasy Football Talk in General

Zeke is really pissing me off. Its always something with him every season. Id consider trading him for another RB1 if someone wants to make an offer in the Dynasty league.

 

you better get TOP value for him Will. A RB like him doesn't come around that often. The contract holdout doesn't devalue him that much in my book.

 

True. I hope he plays and doesn't sit out the season, I really like him a lot. Im real curious as to what kind of offer from the Cowboys he's sitting on, or if he's waiting to see what Gordon hauls in.

 

If it helps no way he sits the entire season. On the down side he could wait until week 10 to show up. Sitting out the entire season would hurt him in the long run because he gains nothing by doing so,

 

You mean like LeVeon Bell?

 

1 Bell was not under contract
2 Bell had been franchised twice
3. Because he had been franchised 2 times even though he did not sign the second one he would have franchising him would have mean he would counted as a third time.

Bell had leverage Zeke does not

 

all i know is zeke and gordon sitting out are killing fantasy drafts ! i have the 10th pick and zeke will be long gone by then, but gordon will be there. im shopping elsewhere!

 

Had an interesting draft last night in a money league. RT is in it too. It's his local league and they needed a late replacement. You could say still Canadian but sometimes those guys out west consider us worse than foreigners lol. My team is on top at the 12th man turn. 2nd team is RT picking at 7. Not quite sure how I feel yet.

 

Solid draft for both of you.

I give the edge at QB to LAOJoe. RB's im leaning, LAOJoe also.

I think RT gets the edge at WR, but its close.

TE goes to Kelce and RT. RT also gets the nod at D/ST.

I did a draft the other night on NFL.com and an owner was real creative on his team name and it made me chuckle... it was; 'Tyreek because Eifert'. lol

 

getting Kelce that late is a steal. i say late bc he will be gone in most drafts at the turn. taking 2 wrs over any rb is risky and you're a better man than me. rb are in a thinner draft pool than wrs are, so i need 1 solid rb at least in the first 2 rds. i like both teams though.

 

12 team ppr, qb/2 Rb/3 wr/te/flex/k/def
had the #1 pick but couldn’t make live draft and had to rely on my pre-rank

Russ, Ben
Saquon, D. Henry, Pollard, Hyde, CJA
Thielen, TYH, Landry, Humphries, Ty. Williams
J. Cook, Herndon
Tucker
Pats

RB depth a concern, esp if Zeke plays and the luck news hurts Hilton’s valaue. Will prob drop Herndon for another RB but not much of interest at this point. should be competitive most weeks.

 

10 team league through work. PPR QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, Flex, K, DST
Had the 2nd pick:

 

ugh one free league im in needed a 12th team. the commish got one and then decided we didn't have enough time to draft so he set the league to autodraft. no one was happy with that. man the RBs are thin. i got Cohen and Bell and I'm happy with that considering it was autodraft and i got a solid TE, and 3 good WRs out of it too. Hell, I got Mayfield and the Bears Def as well.

 

umm as the season hasnt started how is there not enough time to draft?

 

bc people submitted times this week they were available and not available to draft. he decided amongst 10 teams' schedules there wasn't enough time with the holiday to get it in so he said "fuck it" and auto-draft!

 

That is the problem when you go all or none i guess. I've always gone by majority myself. If I have 12 teams and 8 can make it at 1 time then that is when you do the draft. Getting everyone together at one time is almost impossible even in the age of drafting online.

 

now our money league draft is Sunday night. I'm not a fan of this draft being on Labor Day weekend as I'm usually away but the Commish always has it on Sunday of Labor Day at 8pm so you know every year when it is to change your schedule around it.

 

My hometown leagues -

Both run on the same scoring system which includes bonuses for rushing TDs by QB/WR/TE and for receiving TDs by QB/RB. It's touchdown based with yardage points only coming after 100 yards (increases every 25) for RB/WR/TE and 300 yards (increases every 50) for QBs. TDs are 6 points at all positions for anything 19 yards and in, 9 points for 39 yards and in, and 12 points for anything 40 yards and over.

10 team league, starts QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/TE/FLX/K/DSPTs (free agency only happens twice a year after week 5 and after week 10):

Im so interested to see how and what Tom Brady does this season with the group he has. Also wondering if Buffalo and NYJ are going to pose any threat towards them. I still don't know what to think of Miami. The East is going to be more competitive possibly...

Your lineups are solid, Tim... down right stacked.
