2022 Fuck Fantasy Football

[HornPhD 1368]

I second the fantasypros recommendation.

[Trey3216 15343]

Apparently, I drunkenly accepted the offer to join a 3rd fantasy league a few months back and totally forgot about it.  Glad I did.  We had the draft Sunday evening, which I didn't know about, and found out after the fact that it was a 34 round draft in a 12 player league.  Full lineup of individual defensive players in addition to the standard set of offensive players, plus backups.  Fuck me.  My autodraft netted me a shittastic defensive team and managed to draft me 3 extra QB's and 3 kickers.  Time to find some rookies no one knows about to fill out my team.  Uggh.  

[shadow_operative2.0 15941]

34 rounds, fuck that. 

 

I'm in a 17-team guillotine league with an online auction draft, that shit takes so long my partner & I have to tag-team in/out halfway through.

One thing I can't recommend enough for a snake drafter is go use the Fantasy Pros draft toolkit. I'm not sure what's paid and what's not at this point because they give you a free membership if you deposit $10 in one of their partner sportsbooks. 

Alright 'boon, it's your ass if my draft sucks tonight.

You can blame DBro and Erickson. GL!

It worked perfectly for the the first 4 picks (wraparound at #11), but then it got buggy. Had to refresh either site more often than I would have liked for FP to get synced back up to live. Still worth the $10 though, I'll play around with the extras more later. 

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

Rank these 4

Harris

Cook

Kamara

Mixon 

 

I have the 7th pick in my main league and find myself picking between these 4 guys every time. Last night I went kamara in that spot but curious to know what y’all think.

half ppr by the way

[shadow_operative2.0 15941]

Mixon/Swift/Allen/Pitts, then it kinda struggled to stay synced.

I'll be trying it on Friday with my buddy's work draft. 51 fucking years old and $100 league and he has to bring me in on halfsies because he has no idea how to work a laptop or phone. Who did you round out with?

[ocugolf 1213]

Have a 500 dollar keeper league. You get to keep one player at where you drafted him the year before. We won last year so we have pick 12. Options to me are Mark Andrews as a 4th (pick 37) or Michael Thomas as a 7th (pick 84). Both are good value. Jameis can push the ball downfield. It’s just if Thomas can stay healthy. Andrews may get a ton of targets with Hollywood Brown gone. Also could keep Devante Adams as pick 12. 

[closetohumping 17431]

New league I’m playing in has actual defenders not defenses.  
 

for my offense I have:

Brady

aaron Jones

Elijah Mitchell

Diggs

Pittman 

waller

I like them both at those but have to lean Thomas with the later pick. I see the upside with as slightly higher with MT but obviously the floor is lower vs Andrews. I took Andrews because he was valued at anywhere between $34 and $40 in my league and the bidding just stopped at 20 so I jumped in. But I think he probably regresses a bit this year. 107/1361/9 last year and I've read some stuff about how much better he was when Huntley was playing and Lamar was hurt. 

[CurlyDumps 4466]

I like Thomas as your keeper too.  My favorite analysts are the CBS crew and Chris Harris.

https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/rankings/ppr/top200/

https://www.harrisfootball.com/top-200-ranks-draft

Both guys are a value, but Thomas is probably the better value. Chris Harris especially loves Thomas this year and has him #28 standard/#25 PPR overall.

andrews. 
 

Thomas is a complete unknown (and I have drafted him this summer). 

[Scraps 13560]

Keeping someone who will be on the IL 3/4ths of the year seems bad 

[Baboontyme 2809]

I did the F Pros assistant overlay thing for my buddy's league to help him as he's clueless. It glitched out once in like the 10th round where it lost sync and all of a sudden the ESPN ding rang and we were up and had to switch tabs. I refreshed the tab with the F Pros assistant and that fixed it. Really happy with this result. We drew 10th. It's a 12 Team PPR. Went Swift, Mixon, hoping Pittman or AJ Brown fell to us and got MPJ, then got Sutton, Lamar, Chase, Dillon, Moore, Toney and Lockett. TE is not great but don't really care. Probably should have taken Njoku as I think he has more upside but oh well. When I look at the experts who liked our draft the most it was the two F Pros guys who both gave it a 99 A+.

Drafting from 12 was more difficult than I thought. 2 solid RBs or one RB and grab the stud WR?  Went N Harris and D Adams 1/2

.5 PPR 

T Lance/ A Rogers

N Harris/ T Etienne/ D Montgomery/ D Pierce/ R Mosthurt 

D Adams/ D Mooney/ Michael Thomas/ A Lazard/ J Jones/ M Gallup

I don't know your rules but it appears you don't have a QB? Hard to judge. 

My .02 which is not worth a shit. Kupp regresses. Chubb has a big year even if Hunt isn't traded and I kind of think he will be. Waddle is co WR1 in Miami. Mike Williams is a Top 15 WR in non PPR. CEH has the best year of his career. Had gall bladder surgery right before the start of the season last year and didn't advertise it.

Ok. I'm not an expert I just got entrenched in this due to boredom basically. Love the QB combo. I was ok with Lance and like him a lot but was looking to back him up with Rodgers or Russ. 

Can't stress enough how much I like Etienne it just didn't work out. 

Could Julio have a sneaky really good year with like 80 catches and 7 TDs? I think so.

Tua is my QB.  Our league does "Team QB", for reasons I cannot explain.  LOL.

You bros have trouble collecting money from league members?   It’s unbelievable. 50-100 bucks.  

[Guest]

We all work together, even though we’re spread across Texas.

By Wednesday after our SB, everyone pays up.  If they were a pain in the ass about it,  they probably wouldn’t be invited back.

I don’t get the resistance to paying to me you have to pay before game 1.  These are often the same guys who join late.  
 

 

back to the fun.  Ekeler consensus 3 pick?

I think you could make a case for Henry or Kupp/Jefferson. I think ekeler is going to have some major td regression this year. And I say that as an ekeler st

In our league the mentality is that if I win the league, why should I let you hold my money all season. Again, we don’t have knuckleheads being a pain in the ass getting their money in though either.  I’m not opposed to no pay, no play with a hard cut off a week before the draft so there’s no shenanigans.

 

I picked third in my league, and was set on Ekeler… Until he got picked second.

Then I picked Cupp, but yeah, if Ekeler was there, he was my pick.

Sounds like you passed on CMC? 

 

I don't get letting someone wait to pay.  Someone ain't gonna pay when they are 1-3.

Do you only play with random internet strangers? That's a little different than most leagues.

I took CMC #1 last season and traded him before Week 2 for Kelce, with no ragrets.  Yes, i passed on him this season.  Hellova a playmaker, but his health is questionable.

 

As far as paying, again, we all work together and this league is 21 years running.  If someone reneged, they'd just be a POS to 11 other coworkers.  Over $100?  Nah.  They payin...  LOL.

waddle way too early. Why draft a defense before the second to last round?

 

singletary and Aiuyk were good picks at those spots.

if this is even a thought that crosses your mind, that’s on you, brotha. Generally speaking, if I’m in a good, competitive league, I want to stay in that league for as long as it’s a thing. The thought of not paying, and ruining that wouldn’t even cross my mind.

[Irieguy 1059]

I’m completing my last two drafts in the Drafters Best Ball Million. 150 entries. $3,000. 3,000 picks. I’m thoroughly exhausted but I’m glad I did it. There should be overlay. It’s at 39,000 entries out of 50,000 needed for Drafters to break even. 20% overlay. 
 

Oh and I get a free t-shirt for drafting the maximum 150 teams. 😂
