had my draft at Igy's yesterday and went all in on the zero rb strategy. I had the 7th pick out of 10
my roster looks like this
QB - Matt Ryan
RB - Frank Gore, Mark Ingram, CJ Spiller, Latavious Murray, Rashad Jennings, Dan Herron
WR - Antonio Brown, Demaryious Thomas, Jordan Mathews, Jon Brown
TE - Jason Witten
I would have preferred another tight end but i'll end up streaming them this year. overall i'm happy with the results which means my team will be terrible.
You're going to be spending a lot of time rooting for Matt Ryan this year.
Matt Ryan may die behind that OL this year.

have a question for everyone
there was quite the heated debate yesterday regarding our leagues waiver rules....the way it works is reverse order of standings....a few people in the league hate that and want it to do what yahoo does and have it be ordered by who last picked up a FA
opinions?
Well I'll be damned! End of the world is coming soon!

I like the Yahoo way better. Every league I'm in does it the other way but to me its unfair just because your team blows you have to miss out on other players.
that was pretty much the point of view from the other side...that it rewards bad teams.....my argument is that for competitive balance purposes it does the league better to have as many good teams as possible
we also have a 50 dollar last place penalty so it means something to not finish last in our league

I like the yahoo way because it gives everyone a legit shot to pick players up. Sure a team could suck because they got hit with injuries but most of the time they suck because of poor drafting. So having a waiver system based on record rewards a sorry drafting owner for being lousy.
The yahoo system also forces an owner to be sure about their claims. If you're holding the one spot do you really want to pick up that player and drop to 10th?
we dont have a league with any real idiots in it so no one doesnt know how to draft
your second point is interesting and not something anyone brought up yesterday...that definitely adds some strategy to the mix
Yeah it's some game within the game in serious leagues. If you're trying to hoard RBs and pick up a guy and drop from 1st to last because you scooped up the flavor of the week who ripped off 140yds and you're rolling with one QB who gets hurt then you've got to pick up someone like Brian Hoyer or Jay Cutler to be your starter...just bc you wanted that 5th RB
you cant hoard players in our league....we dont have huge rosters and we also have defensive players

I agree with the no RBs strategy in theory especially in PPR leagues. Problem is late in the season when it comes to fantasy playoff time teams run the ball a lot more because of weather or whatever. I listen to the Sirius fantasy station and some guy broke down the stats how much more teams run the last few fantasy weeks than they do the rest of the season and the balance really shifts. Just something to keep in mind. I have two PPR drafts this upcoming weekend, I'll probably go BPA but I'll definitely hold higher value on WRs.
I'm in a 2 QB league, QBs get 6 pts per passing TD. It's .5 PPR. I had #1 overall pick, here's how I drafted:
Luck
Gronk
Forsett
D Hopkins
J Matthews
G Tate
D Martin
S Watkins
C Ivory
I Crowell
Allen Robinson
Alex Smith
Woodhead
Tre Mason
A Boldin
B Lafell
Panthers D
Blair Walsh Kicker
Strategy was to take Bridgewater later but someone took him early. So I waited on a few other QBs but one round they all went and when it snaked around there wasn't shtein left. I think Smith has a chance to be a top 20 QB this season. He had top 20 stats last season and it looks like he has good chemistry with Maclin already. Kelce is a top 5 TE and the kid Conly they drafted is a great athlete. He has a noodle arm but he's an accurate passer so I have my fingers crossed.
Had my first draft of the season last night. Also went "zero RB" more or less, but I'm not really happy with the depth I have there:
QB-Peyton Manning
RB-Latavius Murray (Keeper)
RB-Ameer Abdullah
WR-Dez Bryant
WR-A.J. Green
TE-Zach Ertz
W/R/T-T.Y. Hilton (keeper)
D/ST-Philadelphia
K-Mason Crosby
Bench-Phillip Rivers
Bench-Tre Mason
Bench-Ronnie Hillman
Bench-Josh Brown
Bench-Eddie Royal
Bench-Brandon Coleman
I prefer the Yahoo default because it discourages overuse of the waiver wire, like picking up a player just to prevent others having him. That's a valid tactic, of course, but there are dudes who do this every week. Especially dudes with bad teams, who are depsperate to a.) find a diamond and b.) block another team out. And you can still do it by Yahoo rules, but there's a cost: when your backup QB goes down to injury that week, just before your starter's BYE, and you're at the end of the waiver line because you prevented another team from adding a guy you've now got on your bench, well you're farged and it was you who farged you.
In your case, Havas the penalty (and the alleged awesomeness of everyone involved) should be more than enough to keep the competition level. Giving waiver wire advantage to poor performing teams isn't necessary.
isnt the yahoo system only for players who were released by another team not general free agents
It might be, I don't recall. It's been a few years.

Need a good name for one of my fantasy teams. I hate using football related stuff although Death Rowe works because of this place. I have names like Heisenberg, King of the North, Omar's Coming...shtein like that. I'm bored, any suggestions?
Had drafts the last two days, both are 6 pts. per passing TD. Noticed people are still stacking RBs, I have 2 #1 WRs in both leagues because they're .5 ppr and 1 pt ppr. RBs are a little thin but I think I can get by. Took a late round flier in both leagues on Todd Gurley. His stock really plummeted but I don't mind sitting on him for a month until he's ready to roll. Could be my ace in the hole.
I did the same thing with Gurley in our Keeper League.
To this day, Amish Porn Stars is the best FF name I've ever heard of. But that's taken, so...
I've been naming my teams based on crazy people or news at the time.....like Pill Cosby this year, Jerry's Kids when Sandusky was a thing, CharlieSheenWinning! when he had his meltdown, etc, etc. I try to stay away from pop culture references, especially anything to do with Breaking Bad or The Wire. Pretty sure our keeper league is the only league on the planet that doesn't reference at least 1 of those shows.

Also went with the zero rb strategy. Little surprised nobody else went WR/WR they stacked up on backs. Old train of thought in my opinion.
10 team PPR 6 pts per TD pass
QB Roethlisberger
RB Shady, Rashad Jennings, Gio Bernard, Todd Gurley, Denard Robinson
WR Julio Jones, Megatron, Jordan Matthews, Brandon Marshall, Martavias Bryant, Vincent Jackson, Devante Parker, Brashad Perriman
It's 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR/TE, 1 Flex WR/TE/RB
12 team .5 PPR 6 pts per TD pass
QB Matt Ryan
RB Lamar Miller, Joseph Randle, Todd Gurley, Devanta Freeman
WR Antonio Brown, AJ Green, Brandon Marshall, Devante Parker, Brashad Perriman, Brandon Coleman, Tyler Lockett
TE Greg Olsen, Antonio Gates (usually don't carry two TEs but he was there late and was bpa)
It's 1 QB 2 RB 3 WR 1 TE no Flex

Thanks and yeah I agree. I'm hoping Randle can do well for a month or so. Gurley is supposed to start playing by week 4. He's probably one of the top 10 most talented running backs in the world. Hopefully he gets a full workload at some point. In two of my other leagues I sat until the 6th or 7th round then picked up the likes of Doug Martin and Chris Ivory but people caught onto that with these drafts so I was stuck with what I got. I read up and work waivers pretty well so we'll see.
Got my main keeper league auction tonight. 2nd time in league history it's being done online, which blows. Needs to be in person next year.
i'm in 2 suicide leagues this. one has about 2K pool and one has about 5K. normally i do different teams to hedge myself from any big upsets but I think I'm just gonna go all in and pick the same each week. what do you think has better odds?

Dropped Gates, have Olsen so it's no big deal. Needed to get another RB in that league, dude hasn't accepted or denied my Marshall/Randle for Jaccpot/Martin deal yet.
Choices on waivers were the likes of Brandon Bolden, James White, Dion Lewis, Josh Robinson, Khiry Robinson, Theo Riddick, Christine Michael
Since I have Randle I went with Michael. Not looking for a one week guy so I stayed away from the Pats RBs. If it wasn't for Randle I would have went with Robinson because he's backing up Gore who's old as dirt. Contemplating dropping one of the my sleeper WRs (Coleman or Lockett) and picking him up.
whoever winds up taking over the shane vereen role in ne could be valuable in a ppr league...lewis could be that guy.
Had my auction...didn't go as planned. I wanted to come out with at least one more high priced guy but the prices people were going for were just too much. I went in with a great crop of keepers, but still. Team is okay, way too many line up decisions I'm going to have to make every week though.
QB-Russell Wilson $8 (Keeper)
RB-Eddie Lacy $35 (Keeper)
RB-Latavius Murray $6 (Keeper)
WR-Antonio Brown $40 (keeper)
WR-Devante Adams $6 (keeper)
WR-Eddie Royal $7
TE-Martellus Bennett $2 (keeper)
W/R/T-Chris Ivory $16
Bench-Tom Brady $11
Bench-Ryan Matthews $7
Bench-Shane Vereen $4
Bench-DeSean Jackson $11
Bench-Brandon Marshall $10
Bench-Marques Colston $2
Bench-Jordy Nelson $19 (last pick, grabbed him for keeper purposes)
D-Philly
K-Josh Scobee
Gonna stash Jordy on IR and pick up Tyler Lockett.

I have Marshall in the flex in a ppr but he's going up against Haden, if Evans is out would you go with Vincent Jackson? The rookie qb angle scares me but the Titans D blows.
And it's raining in Tampa
Sticking with Marshall farg it
heard some things about Marshall being moved into the slot a lot today too to get him away from Haden.
The Browns said they weren't using Haden to shadow Marshall today but he would be covering him when he's on the outside. A lot of teams are moving their big receiver to the slot because of the mismatch it creates.
I'm rolling with him over DeSean and Royal in a PPR, so hopefully the Ivy Leaguer feeds him heavily.
He dropped 15-20 lbs and is at his rookie playing weight. Nobody wanted him so I was usually grabbing him in the 6th round or later.
I have him Gurley and Devante Parker in 3 or more leagues
5-0 in fantasy this week. High points in 3 leagues. Munson you still doing the CVON league? If so what's your team name? I'm still Bush's fault.
I saw the thread like 12 hours before they wanted a final answer and I truthfully didn't have time for it this year. Kind of wanted to do it again since I won it last year, but whatever. Those guys are a bunch of stunads.
My starting RBs and WRs for week 1: Shady, Murray, Dez, Pimp. Somehow I am 2-0 despite having not come close to my point projection either week. And last week I played Roddy White who rolled a donut.
I picked up Hankerson in my 12 team league. He looked great last week, was targeted a bunch of times, and White is old. He's last guy on my bench so it's a whatever move that could pay off in deeper leagues.
Somehow in my other league I was 8th on waivers and got Matt Jones. Love what I see from him. I know he rotates with Morris but he's more talented. FYI the racists are the #1 running team in the NFL right now.
Set my lineup for me. 2 WR, 2 RB, 1 WR/RB:
WR - Brandon Marshall, Donte Moncreif, Sammy Watkins, Roddy White
RB - Demarco Murray, Shady, James Starks, David Johnson, Todd Gurley
I thinking Marshall/Watkins/Murray/Shady/Moncreif but I already had doubts about Murray and the Eagles line vs the Jets D and when you add the hammy strain to it, that makes him even less attractive of an option.
Ppr?
Yep. 1pt
What you have is what I'd stick with too
Word. I just noticed Carolina D sitting out there so I picked them up real quick. I've got StL but I think they'll struggle with Pit this week. Carolina gets to face Luke McCown. Seems like a favorable match up.
Carolina d is legit I'd hang onto them for the rest of the season.
Here's my issue. Half ppr, do you start Crowell, Woodhead, or Ivory who might not play. Crowell has a favorable matchup against the raiders but he doesn't catch a lot of passes. Woodhead is getting the second most targets behind Allen and he's getting more carries then Gordon. So im leaning towards Woodhead.
Other league is also half ppr I need two of Freeman, Randle, Lamar Miller, or Gurley. I'm leaning Freemsn/Randle.
If you're wondering why my backs blow so bad my receivers are stacked
I am getting raped. My opponent has Ryan, Julio, Olsen, Steve Smith Sr, and got 17 pts from Gostkowski.....still has Seattle D, D. Thomas and Carlos Hyde. 167pts so far. And he left Devonte Freeman on the bench. He still might drop 225 on me.
any league where a team can score even close to 200 pts is stupid
I agree. This is my 2nd year in this league and I'm not a fan. Weekly high score is always at/near 200.
our all time record one week total is 168 and thats with IDP
before the nfl got all crazy with offense over 100 pts was a great week in our league

TE G Olsen
Still have Mcmanus and the GB D to go. It's 6 pts. per TD pass. No flex. 3-0.

The problem with ppr is that catches count for more points than yards. Megatron could have 3 catches for 100 yds and that's good for 13 pts, but Danny Woodhead gets 8 catches for 60 yards and that's 14 points. In what world does that make sense?
I'm not a fan of ppr at all, but it seems to be a necessary evil these days. 1 ppr is ridiculous. .5 is ok, but I think ideally, if you're going to have ppr, .25 would be the way to go.
I decided to sit Freeman in favor of Karlos Williams this week figuring there's not way he could repeat that performance.
Good call.
Somehow, despite the fact that my first 4 draft picks are Shady/Murray/Dez/Pimp, I am about to go to 3-1. Actually, it's pretty obvious how I've won 3 games....my opponents have massively underachieved each week and my team has been scoring right around it's predicted total. I've done half decent on the waiver wire too, picking up Donte Moncrief, David Johnson, Carolina D, and McManus.
Anyway... I'm up by a point and some change on my opponent this week and still have Russell Wilson and Ebron going tonight. My opponent has no players left. Would it be a fleshpop move for me to bench both players? With my luck, Wilson will lose a fumble on the Seahawks 1st play of the game and get knocked out of the game, Ebron would get held to 0 catches, and I'd end up losing. Smart tactic or full of douchebaggery?
I see no problem with benching them, but there are occasionally stat corrections after a week's games have completed. If you're only up by one there a tiny risk of being stat-corrected into a loss.
I used to think that the time Dio lost to me a few years ago when Phillip Rivers lost a fumble in OT, turning his 1.something pt lead into a <1pt loss was the worst way to lose a game, but notching up a stat corrected loss would probably be the worst.
Dude had Brees and Ingram and I was up by 40+. I'm up by 10 when the Saints kicker missed the fg sending the game into ot. Wound up losing by a point. To make matters worse I wound up with the second highest points despite having to replace an injured Luck and having Gronk on a bye.
I have Calvin Johnson in one of my leagues. I want to rid myself of him. I put a trade offer out to every team in the league this morning to see if anyone will bite.
Just pulled off a monster trade
Full point PPR league. You start a QB, RB, RB, WR/TE, WR/TE, WR/TE, Flex WR/RB/TE, K, DST
I traded Chris Johnson, Jordan Matthews, Rashad Jennings for Emmanuel Sanders, Lamar Miller, Christine Michael
My team as it stands now:
QB Dalton
RB Gio Bernard
RB Miller (for this week)
WR Julio Jones
WR Megatron
WR Sanders
Flex Brandon Marshall
K Mcmanus
D Cards
Bench
RB Gurley
RB Shady
RB Michael
WR Moncrief
WR Martavias Bryant
QB Roethlisberger
I've got Carolina D but just snatched up Cincy because EJ Manuel was just announced the starter. Thinking of making the switch. What say you?
I'd make that switch too. farg the slaver states.
I am a pro at having a great week...only to have some other team haul off and rip off an even better one.
Of our ten teams three are over 100....one dude is winning 103-47 or something like that
And I was up 132-85 before Cam and Olsen went off. Now I'm clinging to a 132-123 lead and he's got the Pats defense. I need a shootout tonight both to help me here and in FD
i desperately need rothlisberger to come back because Antonio Brown is a POS without him

This ended up being a total wash as both defenses only put up 4 points. Meh.
This week's defensive question:
I've still got Carolina, and depending on which Eagles offense/Sam Bradford shows up, I think this is a feast or famine match up. The could put 20+ on the board or lay an egg. Available in my league are Miami (vs Houston) or Atlanta (vs Tennessee). Miami seems to be revitalized and Atlanta has a nice looking matchup against a gimpy MM.
Stick with Carolina or go with one of the other 2?
I have GBs d but they're on a bye, first choice was Miami but dude with a higher waiver order picked them up. Second choice was Minnesota who's D puts up decent fantasy points but has no big names so nobody takes them serious.

Better matchup?
D. Carr v NYJ
R. Wilson v Dal
Also, any reason I should not start Dez today? I can swap him out with Moncreif, but I'm not crazy about that matchup, especially with Luck's injuries.
Okung is likely out for an already battered OL. Greg Hardy could slap Wilson around
Dez may be a decoy and followed by Sherman
i like moncrief tonight....josh norman is gonna lock into ty Hilton so moncrief should get lots of targets
Played against Brees in 2 leauges today, ouctomes are looking ugly
Bortles against Tenn tonight or Ryan vs Indy Sunday?
If they were both playing Sunday i would lean towards Bortles because tennessee isn't good on defense but Thursday night games always seem to score lower.
I'd go with Bortles because Ryan has been lousy lately
I have Ryan in my league and I am seriously considering starting Tyrod Taylor over him
i'd go ryan coming off his bye & with his #2 wr back.

I have the exact same dilemma, I'm going with Bortles. I hate thursday night games too but Ryan has been off and on and Bortles is fairly consistent. Every time I've chosen Ryan Bortles has outscored him so I'm sticking with Bortles until he lets me down.
id go with putting all your lungs on a bye for the next 15 minutes
Seems my roster is back to 100% now with Dez, Pimp, and Shady all off the injury report. Problem is that now I've got too many options.
WR - Dez, Marshall, Pimp, Diggs, Watkins
RB - Shady, West, D. Murray, Gurley
I'm def playing Gurley, West, and Dez. Trying to pick a 2nd WR and a flex.

I'm in a "suicide" league where you get the points from your team if you win, but if you lose you are still in it, you just don't get any points. I'm 4-7 this year.
Yeah I'm in it too...thought Havas was the one who sent me the link a couple yrs ago but it was you now that you mention it
I've lost four in a row
Awful
Pick 2 in a PPR:
DeSean Jackson vs. NYG
Davante Adams vs. CHI
Eddie Lacy vs. CHI
Alfred Blue vs. NO
Bullet vs your face.
I dunno though....can't say I love any of them. Anyone vs Chi pass def is nice, but Rodgers spreads the ball around so much that it's a guessing game.
Pimp & Lacey. Lacey, for whatever reason takes half a season to wake up.
I like that option in non-PPR leagues more.
Romo or Carr
Carr
Good call. I went with Romo.
Left Carr and Watkins on my bench. Luckily I've still got Barnidge tonight and I'm only down 3.5.
Trying to decide if I should go with Pimp or Dez.
Also thinking about C. West over Gurley. Gurley is a beast, but he's been held in check the last 3 weeks and faces Arz. West might be splitting carries, but gets to face a weak Oakland defense.
Including CF I'm in 4 money leagues, I play against Fitzgerald in every one.
Finished the reg season in 1st place but so far it looks like I'm getting bounced in the 1st round. Shady and Watkins not doing ish against the racists, Marshall under achieved against Dallas, West and Ginn Jr having pretty nice days on my bench.
i was blowing my first round opponent out and then the eagles game and david johnson happened. now it's a sweat. i'm up but he has stafford and i have tim hightower
I had a glimmer of hope until the eagles went ham with turnovers last night. I had a 20some point lead but the cards def trimmed if down to 5. My opponent still has Brees and Megatron, I have Hightower. Guess it's possible for me to win if Hightower goes nuts on the ground, while brees and Johnson both struggle, but I'm not holding my breath on that one.
Start 2 in non-PPR:
Maclin vs CLE
Baldwin vs STL
Julio Jones vs CAR
Maclin has been having some pretty good games and the Browns D sucks.
Baldwin has been benefiting from Russell Wilson's hot streak, but STL is pretty good against the pass.
Julio Jones hasn't been getting in the end zone
Randall Cobb @ AZ - No
In 3 leagues (not counting CF). So far I've won two.
League 1 payout is $1100
League 2 payout is $150 for highest points, $100 for finishing with the highest seed, $50 for winning a playoff game (I had a 1st round bye too) and $600 for winning.
League 3 dude started Cousins and Jordan Reed meaning I woke up this morning down 70 points. I completely gave up after the 1 o'clock games because I was down by 80. Just looked I'm down 20, I have AJ Green he has the Denver D. Stranger things have happened but I'm not counting on winning. Still, I get $100 for highest points and $300 for finishing second.
So for now I've won $2400.
Nice
That's a real nice hit - recoups the holiday spending
a league that me sunny and matty are in has a rare opening if any serious player wants in...$150.00 entry and you would be required to attend an in person draft in Maryland on august 27 probably eliminates anyone here but thought I would throw it out there anyway

these are the defensive stats....im not 100% sure but i think our offensive stats are more or less in line with other leagues...theres no special offensive numbers for yard totals or long td's etc...it is a 1 ppr league
tackles - .5
sack - 4
int - 4
ff - 2
fr - 2
def td - 6
safety - 2
pd - 2
two (5) team divisions - (250.00 to each division winner, 1000.00 sb winner, 50.00 last place penalty paid to the highest finisher who didnt win a division or the sb
I think that about covers it
I don't do IDP leagues. If any regular leagues open up let me know.
the league that igy was talking about is now a full online draft league. still idp though, it's the real way to play
How many people are in the league? I might be in if it's now an online draft. I'm completely new to IDP but what the heck.
Drafted Dion Lewis in the 8th, figured I was getting a steal, 20 minutes later it's reported he's out 2 months.
What kind of funhole league drafts this early? No one should be drafting until basically the final preseason game....or the week of.
Last year we drafted a few days before the season started, but Sunday was the only day he could get all 12 people together.
Sunny's draft is this Wednesday
I have my three drafts this saturday and monday.
i am finally out of fantasy football forever.....and ive never felt better....shtein is a bane on society
You quit your own league?
yup....i disbanded it
You out on pools too?
lol....dude goes to great lenghts to not be mainstream, that's for sure.

Not happy with how many Eagles I ended up with, but those were pretty good prices for all 3 of them really.
PPR, but still have way too many WR's. Going to drive myself crazy trying to figure out who to start every week.
Just finished my first draft this year. Somehow I ended up with 7 players who have a week 9 bye. Oops.
Start Sammy Watkins or William Fuller?
Fuller has a tough matchup but at least he's healthy

I'm sitting Watkins for Travis Benjamin. Can't trust that foot, teams score less on TNF, and he's going up against Revis. Week 17 he torched Revis but Revis was torched last week and I just don't see a repeat.
Thanks guys...that's what I was leaning with. I'll stick to Fuller.
Please note how Watkins will blow up for at least 2 TDs today.
I lost a claim for Fuller in another league. Ended up with Marvin Jones.
I needed a replacement for Keenan Allen

No doubt
Latavius Murray or TJ Yeldon?
I'd start Gronkowski.
Oh wait, no I wouldn't.
HE'S A fargING GIMPY PIECE OF shtein.
DIAF.
Pick 4 outta these 5
TY Hilton (Jags)
Travis Benjamin (Saints)
Allen Robinson (Colts)
Marvin Jones (Bears)
Demariyus Thomas (Bucs)
1 ppr
I'm leaning towards sitting Thomas
Those are all really juicy matchups. I guess I'd sit Thomas too, just because his QB is so young, but it's not like he isn't pointing points on the board though.
Outside of a really shteiny weather forecast for one of those games I really don't think it matters who you go with.
Who do I put in to replace Julio. .5 PPR
Dion Lewis v. Baltimore
Martellus Bennett v. Baltimore
Chris Hogan v. Baltimore
Or if you see this before 1 o clock I also have Crowell
go farg yourself you worthless waste of sperm...no one gives a shtein about your dumb ass fantasy team
Sperm is white and so is Chris Hogan so that's your choice?
