2024 Fantasy Football Thread

I think it condenses the targets even more. Rondale was nothing special, but I thought he’d be more involved than someone like Ray Ray, even if it was gadgety.

I’ve been wanting to get more Kittle with the Aiyuk situation, but I also find it tough to take him over Pitts.

UD drops two new ones. I’ll pass on the SF.

Allbright going in hard on this one in the comments.

Poodle pick 4

Aiyuk pick 3.04 seems fine.

I bought the dip on Hopkins since I had 4 decent receivers already. I took Boyd later as a hedge/stand alone value/stacking partner.

I took Chig because Andrews and Hunter have week 14 byes but I probably should have added another receiver instead.

I thought the WR's were a dart throw with my 18th pick so I took Shipley who I like as a RB dart throw more.

QB) Lamar, Levis

RB) Achane, Robinson, Singletary, Elliot, Lloyd, Shipley

WR) Chase, Aiyuk, Odunze, JSN, Hopkins, Legette, Boyd

TE) Andrews, Henry, Chig

My flight had to deplane due to leaking, so I had some time to draft, first poodle 2

Qb - Mahomes, Rodgers

Rb - Conner, Warren, Moss (107 maybe still too early), Javonte, Zeke, Prince

Wr - Wilson, Puka, Worthy, Rome, Mwill, M Wilson, Hyatt, Iosivas

Te - Kelce, Otton

It looks like it's gonna come down to Lamar vs Mahomes, Andrews vs Kelce, Shipley vs Prince between our teams.

Nice team!

Starting to really like these builds. It involves taking either 2 QBs or 2 TEs in the first 10 rounds. It definitely needs to be Zero RB. Not sure which one I like better though.

2 QB Build

QB - Hurts, Love

RB - Najee, Ekeler, Corum, Chandler, Davis, Hill

WR - AJB, MHJ, Pittman, Reed, Cooks, Pearsall, Corley, Zay, Ainias

TE - Kincaid, Musgrave, Jonnu

2 TE Build

QB - Tua, Carr, Nix

RB - AJ, Pollard, Lloyd, Allgeier, McLaughlin, Mattison

WR - Reek, Olave, Waddle, Dell, Shaheed, Jeudy, Mims, Zay, Reynolds

TE - McBride, Kittle

Got a few questions about UD. Hoping you fine young fellas will help a super-newb out.

Are all of the contests.5PPR?

For contests with 1 flex, are TEs eligible?

1st time signing up and was going to use promo code FLOCK. Think it's 50% bonus plus his weekly rankings etc. that I think might help with my redraft/dynasty leagues. Anyone got a better promo code?

I have no delusions of winning anything. I'm just doing it because my favorite part of playing FF is drafting.

Thanks

I personally prefer double strong TE to double strong QB since all TEs, sans Kelce at his absolute peak, generally have low weekly floors. Strong QBs like Hurts generally do not. I think you can still get away with one early RB in this strategy, but that means you're mostly punting the other onesie completely. I.e., in that second build, maybe take RB where you took either McBride or Kittle, then take someone like Bowers or Njoku the second TE. I still think it's a solid build as is, though.

Thanks. Probably just going to deposit $100 and get $50 total $150 to play with.

Will stick with $3-$5 puppies to get the most drafting bang for my buck.

25 of the $3 for $75
5 of the $5 for $25
2 of the $25 BBM for $50

Obviously start with the lower buy-ins first to get your feet wet.

Not sure if there's a 20 entry max for the $3. If so just max it out and you can play 8 of the $5.

Sounds like a plan. Couple of $25 lotto tix can't hurt. Plus I'll probably get hooked and deposit more. So thinking about maxing out the bonus on the initial deposit. 🙄

It's definitely addicting (lolgambling).

I had to slow down on my $20 entries when I saw how much I was in for and have been doing the $3 again.

At this point I'll be happy to get back half my investment.

That's mainly why I've stuck to the low buy in contests. I've drafted so many, my investment would be uncomfortably high if I'd been firing BBM and the DK milly this whole time. And I'm still not sure how much I really actually know what I'm doing.

Maybe if I hit something this season, I'll move up next year.

I’m the opposite if I don’t bink something this year I’m playing lower next year .

Just got 4.6 Aiyuk on DK.

Well got sniped on 2 nice dbl stacks, but still feel like this is alright even though no bring backs

Qb - Kyler, Rodgers, Nix

Rb - Breece, Warren, Pollard, Dowdle, Estime

Wr - Nico, Diggs, Keenan, Rome, Mwill, M Wilson, Mims, Baker

Te - McBride, Bowers

Had a chance to take Pickens at 5.7, but I passed for Tank Dell. Could have w17 correlation on Aiyuk with Kelce.

Kyler, Trevor, Maye

Bijan, Pollard, Benson, Corum, Gibson, Braleon

MHJ, Aiyuk, Tank, Kirk, BTJ, M Wilson, DRob, Baker

Kelce, Likely, Sanders

I didn't plan to add Maye, but he was there at 19.7.

And then a second team where I didn't plan to add Maye, but he was there at 19.11.

Lamar, Geno, Maye

Spears, Singletary, Zeke, Corum, Davis, Roschon, Estime

Puka, London, DK, Odunze, JSN, Downs, Osborn

McBride, Pitts, Likely

And obviously didn't need Likely, but added him on for Lamar.

I like it. Strong projections everywhere.

That's the one thing I dislike about Kyler. The correlation isn't always easy since Puka, Kupp, and Kyren all go in the first 2 rounds. After that there's no one to get super excited about on the Rams.

Puka has been going later on DK, so if you trust he'll be fine, then it's probably easier to get Puka/MHJ builds.

Just drafted a naked Dak. Couldn't resist when he was 29 spots past ADP. Luckily Cooks was right around the corner and I snagged him.

How badly did I do in this last draft?

I've got Dak, but no Lamb.
I've got Burrow, but no Chase or Higgins.
I've got Fields (past ADP this time), but no Pickens or Muth.

You got a boatload of fields

That's one way to do it, I guess.

Ya'll think I like Fields?

I just saw someone draft him naked as their QB1, and they took Russ as their QB4.
