Okay I need opinions on my starting lineup

Jared Goff
AaronJones
Josh Jacobs
Duke Johnson
Michael Thomas
Devante Adams
George Kittle
Bears D

Just need a K now. Did I do good or did I fuck up? I keep second guessing myself.

You're fine imo. The bears defense is ripe for regression this year in fantasy, and I might see if you can get somebody else in there instead of Duke. Otherwise I think you're sitting pretty.

I have other people I can flex instead of Duke. Will Fuller, James White, Dion Lewis, and Sterling Shepard.

I'm glad I took a shot at Hyde on the Era league, but I don't see him being anything more than a fringe flex play tbh.

In my main league I just put in a trade offer. Dalvin Cook, Tony Pollard, and Robby Anderson for Zeke. I'm all in on this man.

If it pans out my RBs will be:
Saquon Barkley, Ezekiel Elliot, David Montgomery, Miles Sanders, and Darwin Thompson.

This offer is never getting accepted. With the latest news, Pollard has almost 0 value unless you're the Zeke owner.

No owner in their right mind would take that trade. And if they do, congrats on winning that scrub league.

Someone accepting a trade like that isn't out of the question imo. This just happened in one of my pro leagues last night

Does anyone else just stare at their team until they don't like it after a draft?


I am doing that right now.

What is the league structure? 12? 14? Super or Multi flex?

I might have participated but the draft time is just crazy for me in SE Asia. Already stuck doing 5am and 9am, 2am is just not possible. It's a good league for anyone in North America though!

Done! Please tell me how much I fucked up.. totally didn't go the way I had planned in my head. Drafted 8th.

12 team, Superflex League, 0.5 PPR.

QB: Russell Wilson
WR1: DeAndre Hopkins
WR2: Brandin Cooks
WR3: Chris Godwin
RB1: Nick Chubb
RB2: Devanta Freeman
TE: OJ Howard
FLEX: Will Fuller
SUPERFLEX: Sam Darnold
K: Robbie Gould
DEF: Seattle

Yahoo gave me a C+ lol. I'm not happy with the Darnold situation, but there wasn't much left.

Bench: Stafford, Michael Gallup, Jalen Richard, Ty Montgomery.

McCoy traded to the Chiefs. Go get him while your league mates sleep.

Also, here's my team in a 14 team league:

QB: Philip Rivers
RB: James Connor, Chris Carson, Latavius Murray, Malcom Brown, Jaylen Samuels, LeSean McCoy
WR: Cooper Kupp, Chris Godwin, Curtis Samuel
TE: Hockenson, D. Waller
K: Fairbairn
D: Seattle

Thoughts?

That's not bad... I'm no expert on 2 QB leagues and not a fan of PPR, but that seems like a solid unit. Now you need to do well on the other phases to improve the team.

I wanted Chubb so bad in the second but the dude right before me took him so I settled on Mixon. First time I actually slammed my fist down during a draft, lol.

If he's available in a 12-14 team league then it's not a very serious one!

I still think Damien is the guy to get but it's easy to see McCoy getting work and looming over Williams if mistakes are made.

Lots of leagues dropped him today - I think Sleeper had something like 15000 drops before the news broke a short time ago.

Now it says something like 22k adds. Crazy.

They're also paying McCoy a little more than Williams is making this year, and Reid loves the guy. I wouldn't be shocked to see at least flex value.

Yeah, I think this is mostly doomsday news for Darwin Thompson owners. McCoy basically replaces him.

The drop count doesn't surprise me, tons of family 8-10 owner drafts out there. But generally he should be drafted in any format with at least 2RB since he (was) a starter. Now his position has gone down but his outlook has gone up. Will be interested to see his expert rank

Is Hunter Renfrow in any way fantasy relevant? I have him stashed but Albert Wilson is sitting as a free agent and I'm tempted to drop Renfrow

Drafted this morning....was 6th in a 10 man league, figured I was stuck in no man's land. Yeah well I got Kamara at 6, lol could not believe my eyes.

Debating on starting Ryan or Kyler Week 1...Murray at home against Det. is tempting.

... I would be very interested in hearing the first 5 picks...

Week 1 starts tend to be pretty random. Go with your gut; I'd probably pick Ryan to be safe IMHO.

You'd roll the dice with a rookie on Week 1 over a probable MVP candidate?

My friends gave me a tremendous amount of shit for drafting Aaron Rodgers in the fifth round of a PPR league. Mahomes went in the third for reference. Normally, I don't go quarterback as early as the fifth but I am adamant about trying to get the quarterback for your receiver if a receiver is your first round pick.

The only receivers that went in the first round for us were Hopkins and Davante. I drafted Davante and I knew I was going to then reach for Aaron. If I drafted Hopkins, I would have reached for Watson.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking...

It went Mahomes (LOL), Saquon, Mayfield at 3 (lol wtf), McCaffrey, Elliott, me at 6 with Kamara.

Casual friends league...7 of the guys in the league are good, couple of outliers as you can see haha. I mean we are playing for a decent amount of $$ though so you'd think everyone would take it seriously.

Have my draft today and really want Zeke at 6. Don't think he'll be there due to the news that a deal is imminent.
