I should have paid attention to the no need for a TE thang…
For me, RB’s kept coming up when it was my turn. I’ll definitely need the wavers to come through for my receiver core. 2 QB’s for the win….🥇 |

It's not about if you win or lose. It's about how many rules they have to add afterwards. |
Kelce has some life left in him. But Mandrews is done.
Then again, lots of pundits said the same thing about Kelce early last year. You can bet Likely will be a top waiver wire pickup this week. |

Well... Love is fucked.
Glad I drafted a 2nd QB instead of scrambling. With a deep bench like our league, a 2nd QB absolutely makes sense. |

The games so far today have been “interesting” . . I predict some really stupid moves in a bunch of my other leagues and will hopefully be able to take advantage .

May I simply say that I am reasonably pleased with my team's performance this week.

I know it's just one week but I cleaned up in my first week of playing FF.
And some of you said I had no big name guys. I'm up over 30 points against my opponent and Debo hasn't even played yet. We'll see how all this plays out as the season goes along. Attached File |

I think our 12 man league is full PPR. 120-125 are the higher scores right now. Most have already finished. A few of us are in the 120's but still have one more player left so I see what you're saying that 130-150 is a good week. |

When daily was trying to be legalized in states Congress critters tried to say it was luck, therefore a game of chance like craps. Some of the top daily players said “play me heads up and I’ll beat you 9/10 times, that’s not chance. That’s skill”. To my knowledge none of the critters took them up on the offer. |

Yep. PF is a better measure at the end of a season of how good someone was. When gauging your team it’s about PF and PA. If you’re in top 2 of PF, but in 7th place, that’s just bad luck facing high scoring opponents constantly. It happens. Happened to me plenty of times. My team was really good, I just kept facing the highest scoring team every week. But boy I stunk it up this week. 12 pts from my starting receivers in ppr? That not gonna do it. |

I will probably draft another team or 2 next week . I like fantasy sports View Quote My brother called me @ 5:00am Sunday to ask if I wanted to co-manage a team he'd just signed up for. I've never heard of a league that lets you draft players who've already finished their games and keep their points. Saquon Barkley and his 33.20 points went #2 overall. We had the #1 pick and I talked my brother into CeeDee Lamb. He really wanted Saquon. Turns out we played the team who drafted Saquon at 2.01. We got beat by 29 points. Brother not happy right now. I'm trying to explain to him that going 0-1 is not the end of the world. We either drafted a good team, or we didn't. Time will tell. Barkley looks good, but there's no way (barring injury) he outscores Lamb this year. |

Excluding intentions with our league , anybody want to share their pickups/ drops they want to do tonight ? I’m in a lot of 10 man leagues and just gonna stay away til I see who gets dropped . Our Arfcom league is the only one I’m in using faab . Faab is really the best compared to the other ways it gets done.

I don't know about this skill thing guys. Sure I'm still learning so I could be wrong as the season plays out.
But the rankings had me at 11th out of 12 people after the draft. Projections were super low. The person that was #1 after the draft was a chick who had binders of information and all kinds of various things to help then during the draft. They said this is their 5th league they joined this year. Now after just ONE week of football I was the 2nd higher scorer (luck) at 140.56 points would have been #1 if it eas for Moody, won my match up and the power rankings have me going all the way from 11th place to now 1st in my league. The only thing that's in your control is who you bring up from the bench on bye weeks and if you dig more into waivers (which I'm still learning how that works). Attached File |

If someone drops a player you wanted , to chase the current thing , pounce like a puma . If you use your head instead of emotions you will be better off . Good luck ! Hope you do well . |

Alright, unbiased opinion outside this league.
I drafted 9/10 in a 10 man .5ppr league. After week 1 I’m projected as the top team(wild/ fuck ESPN). I have the #1 waiver pick. Likely or Mason. I have Andrews as my TE1. Team behind me needs a TE as Furgeson is hurt, team behind him is a CMC owner. Who do I take to limit the other guys? Hate being Waiver #1. Feel like I could use a good RB ias CMC ends up hurt more this season, however if he’s healthy Mason is just riding the bench with the 9’ers…. but likely seems like a viable WR2 if he continues to perform regardless. Not getting week 1 jitters and sitting Mandrews however. RB’s Gibbs White Singletary Mostert WR AJ B Nico Godwin Waddle Hollywood Meyers |

After that performance 49ers will be resting rundmc more now . And he is injury prone . Grab Mason , imo . Edit to add Andrew’s is a known commodity , Likely is not . Use your head , not your feels . If nothing else you can trade Mason to whoever has cmc for a great player . This is all IMO of course . My advice is worth exactly what you paid for it . |

But Guerendo is going to be utilized more if CMC remains out for any length of time. Shanahan is well known for 'Backup Running Back By Committee.' 2. The Ravens use a two tight-end set more than any team in the league. Likely is a better player than Andrews at this stage of his career. He'll take over the #1 spot on the depth chart soon. |
