Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 4 Posted September 4 In two leagues (12-team PPR’s). In one league, Yahoo gave me a D- draft grade with a stinging critique! Haha. i will say that the one guy who I always have had on my team and has finally paying dividends is Mostert. Dude is a beast! Quote

msw2112 Posted September 4 Posted September 4 My draft was a bunch of guys from across the country, so we did it online. Based on my work schedule, I requested a 6 PM start time. The guys went with 5:30 with very little notice. I got home around 5:40, and knowing I'd be a bit late, I had asked that they pause the draft when my 1st round pick came up. Apparently they were not very tech savvy and couldn't figure out how to stop the draft. By the time I got logged in, the 2nd round was over and my first two picks were made by auto draft. I was pretty pissed off, to say the least, but I don't think their failure was intentional. Auto-draft gave me two WR's - St. Brown and Nacua - not terrible - but probably not who I would have picked in those spots. I recovered and ESPN graded my draft a "B". I usually try to get at least one Bills player, but most of the guys in the league have ties to Buffalo and they grabbed everyone. I would have liked to have Shakir, in particular, and Samuel in the late rounds. I love Allen, but someone always overdrafts him, so I know he wouldn't be available. Ray Davis is still available as a free agent, but I went with Blake Corum in the last round instead, as I think he'll get some opportunity with the Rams and seize the job before it's all said and done.

Yeah, Kmet gets completely overlooked. I don't think people realize he was a top 10 TE last year. I have him as my backup TE. Impressed with your RB stable. 17 hours ago, MJS said: I took Kelce in round 5, pick 44 (I was picking 4th overall). I took Josh Allen in the 3rd round. I was determined to get him this year. I picked up Shakir in round 11, in case that is interesting. It is a default NFL.com league, which is QB, RB×2, WR×2, TE, W/R, K, DEF. NFL.com switched to PPR being default a couple of years ago, so it is PPR. In our league there are 4 Bills fans among the 10 teams so Josh has never made it out of the 1st round and he's always justified his high draft position. Quote

I can see Jordan Love challenging for MVP. No holes in your lineup. Team is loaded; i'm guessing an 8 or 10 team league? Nervouse that Pitts is hurt and you don't have a backup. Quote

Yeah it's odd because if you look at rankings and average draft position, by conventional wisdom he shouldn't even go in the first round. And yet he does in the leagues I'm aware of and there hasn't been any buyer's remorse. How can you go wrong drafting the highest scoring QB who's also your favorite player of all time? Quote
stevewin Posted September 5 Posted September 5 (edited) Last night my wife was doing an online draft with her family, which I declined to participate in but told her I would give her advice. Her 1st round pick comes up, I tell her who to draft and then a moment later I hear her exclaim "Jacob Saylors! Jacob Saylors?! Oh No!" She pressed the wrong thing and somehow, as her first pick, drafted some guy who literally currently isn't even on a roster. And it arguably got worse from there 😛 I made her change the name of her team to Jacob Saylors Edited September 5 by stevewin 2 Quote

In a league this size and filled with veteran owners RBs are hard to find I just grabbed Herbert incase anything happens to Swift he could be the guy, same thing with Davis but barring injuries I shouldn't have to dip that far on the depth chart. Toss in it's always great having someone elses handcuff to see if can trade them later in the season as needed. Quote

I think it's because whoever has Josh usually has the best team the last few years. It's like an auto-invite into the playoffs. Quote

It's like an auto-invite into the playoffs. Travis Kelce, at least in previous years, has been huge too. Getting a guaranteed 10+ points every week at the TE position has been such a big advantage, in my opinion. Quote
MJS Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Ok, just drafted for my work league. It is a 12 team league. Here is my team: QB- J.Allen (BUF) QB- J.Herbert (LAC) RB- I.Pacheco (KC) RB- J.Williams (DEN) RB- B.Robinson (WAS) RB- C.Brown (CIN) WR- B.Aiyuk (SF) WR- C.Ridley (TEN) WR- C.Watson (GB) WR- K.Shakir (BUF) TE- S.LaPorta (DET) TE- C.Kmet (CHI) K- C.Santos (CHI) DEF- Chiefs DEF- Bills Quote

It's only a 10-team league, so decent talent at the back end of the roster. I drafted Pitts on Tuesday night and saw that he tweaked his hammy on Wednesday. I'll have to monitor and possibly pick up a TE for Sunday if Pitts can't go. Quote
Logic Posted September 5 Posted September 5 (edited) My 12 team home league, full PPR, one QB, which I've been doing for years with co-workers and friends. Picked from the 9 spot. I'm usually a Zero RB guy. I prefer to have three elite WRs and then make due with what's left at RB. I deviated a bit this year because Walker and Etienne were good values that were sticking out on the board when I picked them. Even so, I like my starting WR trio. I won the championship last year, and I feel cautiously optimistic this year, especially if Jayden Daniels hits. QB: Jayden Daniels RB: Travis Etienne RB: Kenneth Walker WR: Justin Jefferson WR: Cooper Kupp TE: Kyle Pitts Flex: Tank Dell K: Josh Karty (Dome kickers FTW) DEF: Texans Bench: QB Jared Goff RB Tyjae Spears RB Austin Ekeler RB Jordan Mason RB Rico Dowdle RB Samaje Perine WR Brian Thomas TE Pat Freiermuth TE Taysom Hill (it should be illegal to allow this guy TE eligibility) IR: Josh Downs Odell Beckham Jr Edited September 5 by Logic Quote
