QB - Brady, Ryan
RB - Zeke, Gordon, Henry, Howard, Mixon
WR - Ridley, Robinson II, Jones Jr
TE - Kittle, Ebron
K - Myers
DEF - Seattle

If Zeke and Gordon both play then I figure I could trade one or two running backs for one or two better wide receivers. Otherwise I’m very happy with my team.

 

you better hope that happens because that WR depth is booty

 

Yeah, it’s pretty rough. If they both play, then I’ll easily trade any of the other three RB’s

 

My main thing is that Gordon will at least be playing by week 10 and forward so I could stash him for a playoff push. The Zeke news was much better pre-draft but then now I’m reading the reports of him signing today or tomorrow were wrong, so who knows?

 

Update: He went in Round 2 Pick 10 (!)....just picked Montgomery in the 3rd instead.

GOddamn.

 

Uh, wow what

 

So that draft did not go as expected. I always forget how weird this league gets with the way guys draft in it. Half point PPR, max of two keepers that take the place of your 4th and 5th round picks respectively, can't keep anyone drafted before round 6.

QB-Jared Goff
RB-Aaron Jones (keeper)
Ravid Montgomery
WR-Julio Jones
WR-Tyreek Hill
TE-George Kittle (Keeper)
W/R/T-Austin Ekeler

K-Will Lutz
D-Philly

Bench-Matt Breida
Bench-Rashaad Penny
Bench-Marquez Valdez-Scantling
Bench-Justin Jackson
Bench-Kyler Murray
Bench-Trey Burton

I have zero WR depth at the moment, but don't really need it with those starting two. I usually like having a WR to rotate through the Flex spot so kinda weird to be depending on a bunch of RB's for it (unless Scantling really busts out). Burton was my last round pick, there really weren't any other WR's on the board I felt any good about at that point. I'll have some waiver claims to make in the first couple weeks I'm sure to get WR depth.

The first two rounds went pretty much perfectly from my perspective, those were the two guys going in that I targeted (I picked 9th) and they were both there at my picks (Julio and Hill if not obvious). After that, the draft did not go as expected at all and I ended up with a bunch of guys I was not targeting going in. Was hoping Chris Carson would fall to me in the 3rd but nope, got Monty there instead. I was going to take Miles Sanders with my pick in the 6th, but the guy right before me snagged him, so I panicked a little bit and ended up taking Ekeler. I figure between Ekeler, Breida, Penny, and Jackson, at least ONE of those dudes should become a flex worthy option.

I am not targeting and not expecting to come away with either of those two QBs in any other league, so this will be an interesting year with them. I almost ALWAYS go for a double dip between my QB and one of my top WR but Mahomes was kept and Matt Ryan went a few picks before I was ready to pick him, unfortunately. I HATE not having the double dip.

TL;DR-I think my starting lineup is ridiculously good and am excited about them, going into the season with zero WR depth.

 

Also, Rivers didn’t get drafted....is it worth dropping one of the QBs for him? Or hell, drop Burton and just wait and see how it shakes out?

 

Definitely don't need to roster Burton

 

12 team 0.5 PPR, 1 QB, 2 RB, 2WR, 2 Flex

QB: Cam Newton
RB: Alvin Kamara, Leonard Fournette, Duke Johnson, Austin Ekeler, Dion Lewis, Damien Harris
WR: Julian Edelman, Kenny Golladay, Robby Anderson, Larry Fitzgerald, Golden Tate, Kenny Stills
D/ST: Ravens
K: Mike Badgley

Feeling pretty good about this right now. Should I though?

 

I do like that team

I might drop Damien Harris for Ryquell Armstead to have Fournette's backup but other than that, solid

 

Justin Jackson is also available. I immediately identified Harris as the guy I'm willing to cast off though

 

I’m quite notorious for drafting solid sleepers/backup RB’s and then dropping them before the season starts/first few weeks then they break out.

 

12 team, 1 PPR, 1 QB 2 RB 2 WR 1 Flex

QB: Big Ben
RB1: James Conner
RB2: Austin Ekler
WR1: Davante Adams
WR2: Brandin Cooks
TE: Austin Hooper
Flex: Tevin Coleman (or Tony Pollard if Zeke doesn't report)
D: Cowboys (stream)
K: Butker

Bench:
Melvin Gordon
Tony Pollard
Larry Fitz
Dante Pettis
Donte Moncrief
Mecole Hardman

If Gordon gets traded I'm in real good shape

 

I really want to drop ty Montgomery because my waiver wire looks pretty good but I also have bell and am terrified he'll get injured. Montgomery looked pretty amazing in the preseason games, other than a fumble in the last game.

 

trust and jets do not go together

 

But if Melvin Gordon gets traded to a good place I might have a shot at winning the league

 

I have my two leagues drafting tonight, who are some late round fliers to keep an eye out for?

 

Someone in my league dropped a Geronimo Allison in my league. Should I drop Sanu to try to claim him? I’m not sure what the Packers WR depth chart is looking like behind Adams.

 

I would.

 

I would, it is Adams, scantling, and Allison are top three. Adams is definitely a WR1 but the other two could be worthy flexes some weeks.

 

I’m assuming you know about Tony Pollard (Zeke’s backup) I got him super late in my league

 

Thanks!!

 

My main money league with all my friends - we're on like, year 12. 10 team league - standard scoring

Draft was Saturday - I had the third pick

QB - Brees and Goff (I NEVER draft two QBs but Goff was still available pretty late and Brees going so late into this career, who knows?)
WR: JuJu, Edelman, Mike Williams, Fuller, Dede Westbrook, Sutton
RB: McCaffrey, Damien Williams, Carson, Ekeler
TE - Walker (think I drafted a TE with my third to last pick)
K- Gould
DEF- Baltimore

Sucks that McCoy got signed by the Chiefs. Had I known that, I probably would have gone Aaron Jones over D. Williams (both were available when I picked Williams)

 

I’m picking 9th in my 10 person work league. If for some reason zeke falls that fair would it be dumb to scoop him?
