Wtf man it’s def best ball season lol

You guys still taking CMC if he makes it to 3? Or completely fading ?

I'm still taking CMC at 1.01.

Ok me too just wanted some other opinions .

I misclicked in the 3rd round and ended up with a triple RB start.

Last pick I could have had Sanders as my RB5 or Osborn as a 2nd stacking partner for Maye.

QB - Caleb, Bryce, Maye

RB - CMC, Kyren, Henry, LLoyd

WR - Tank, Kennan, Reed, Diontae, Lockett, Shaheed, Franklink, Roman, Corley, Osborn

TE - Bowers, Otton, Henry

I've always been CMC number 1 and still am. Early in the draft season it did make a bit of sense structurally to go with Lamb number one given the WR avalanche and how easy it was to get Prescott in the 9th. You could load up at other positions and still get a great QB. Now people are sniping Prescott all over the place realizing they have low exposure to him. There is no guarantee Lamb ends up WR 1. If CMC stays healthy he will probably be RB 1 and if not then 2 or 3 at the worst.

Looks like DK added a 2nd $200k Play Action with $3 entry. Which is good because I've almost maxed the first one.

I’ve moved him to 1.02, but 1.01 is definitely completely reasonable

This one went okay. Was able to nail the PHI/DAL stack.

QB - Hurts, Trev, Nix

RB - Monty, Najee, Dowdle, Charb, Ray, Sanders

WR - AJB, Deebo, Devonta, Keenan, Sutton, AD, Franklin, Parker Washington

TE - Engram, Henry, Jonnu

Felt like 2qbs was fine here, but kinda wish I had taken Bryce in 17, especially as I think Kittles consistently goes up if Aiyuk leaves, so 3 te, even if te 2 is fringe might not be that valuable

Qb - Burrow, Goff

Rb - JT, C Brown, Gus, Ford, Gibson

Wr- ARSB, DK, Tee, Rome, Jamo, Legette, McMillan, Mims

Te - Kittle, T Johnson, Dulcich

TE looks weak even with Kittle. I think there's a lot of better ones between Kittle and Theo you could have taken over Legette or McMilan.

Can you explain the PHI/DAL stack. I get Hurts/AJB, but the only Cowboy I see is Dowdle. How does that correlate?

Is there any clarity of what is happening with LAC RBs?

Haven't heard anything except random Vidal news, but no info on whether Dobbins or Edwards is the primary back, if there even is one.

Poodle pick 11.

I make way too many mistakes for as many drafts as I've done. If I would have taken Rodgers instead of Stafford I could have been done at QB and been able to allocate a pick elsewhere. A sixth RB would have been better. Mahomes and Stafford have the same bye week. I tried to set up a Bo Nix stack but got sniped. I was shocked to see all starting QB's gone by the time it got back to me at pick 17 so I had to take Russ.

It's scary having two rookies as my number two and three WR. I was able to get some solid vets behind them so hopefully it works out.

QB) Mahomes, Stafford, Russ

RB) Gibbs, Conner, C Brown, Jaleel, Prince

WR) Puka, Worthy, Odunze, Samuel, Sutton, M Williams, D Robinson, Mims

TE) Kelce, Muth

In theory, if Hurts/ABJ/DeVonta are putting up points in w17, then someone on Dallas's side needs to be putting up points. It's probably more likely to be CeeDee, Cooks, or Ferg in that scenario, but Dowdle could get some catches or score some TDs as Dallas is trying to keep pace.

Or maybe it's vice versa. Dowdle runs in two scores and the Cowboys are putting up points with Dowdle so then Hurts/AJB/DeVonta are more likely to put up points too trying to keep pace.

The longer this lingers, the less likely it seems to be. I think the teams interested are willing to give Aiyuk the money he's seeking. But they're currently not willing to pay SF's asking price. The speculated offers I've seen don't seem like enough for SF to not just make Aiyuk play on the 5YO.

I've still been taking some Aiyuk as he falls, but it's not ideal he's missing training camp for either SF or his potential new team. Obviously, he has familiarity with SF, but there have been plenty of instances of guys holding out into training camp and the preseason looking rusty and not in sync to start the year. That practice time matters, and it especially matters if he moves orgs. I wouldn't be surprised to see CeeDee and Chase start slow either because of it. Although, Burrow made a comment recently along the lines of Ja'Marr and I just need one practice and we'll be good lol.

I've mostly been mixing in some Dobbins and Vidal as the cheaper guys. Dobbins is reportedly healthy, but this backfield is just not giving off good vibes. I've pretty much stopped taking Gus since there are too many other good backs going in his range. Gus doesn't catch passes, and while he's been an efficient runner, I think a lot of that has been propped up by Lamar and the Ravens scheme.

Right now, Dobbins feels like the best bet, as Vidal could simply be a zero as a round 6 rookie. But the Dobbins bet also assumes he'll be able to stay healthy, even if he might be healthy today.

I might have just taken the zero anyways if Russ was the alternative. No guarantee he's even starting in w6. I lived on the edge recently in a slow Puppy with only Mahomes and Fields as my 2 QBs. Zeros at QB are definitely not ideal, but they're also not death knells either.

I think that WR room can work out, but Big Mike will probably also start slow, so that's three guys who may not have great production at the beginning of the season. Hopefully Samuel, Sutton, and DRob can prop it up.

It's tough to go Mahomes/Kelce at the 3/4 turn when RB is one of your first two picks.

My favorite players broken down by team (in order of ADP).

Worth noting that if you don't see a player that doesn't mean I have no exposure, or that I'm completely fading them. I am likely fading as one-offs, but I'll still add them in for stacking or correlation purposes.

Finally got one of if not my first shares of Ridley and I lost connection and auto drafted this gem in bbm (kittle/ridley were the last picks I made)

Posting it in case it wins for the laughs haha

Qb - Lamar, Herbert, Kirk, Geno

Rb - Warren, Swift, Singletary, Brob, Corum, Vidal, Eli

Wr - London, Deebo, Flowers, Ridley, Jeudy, Franklin

Te - Kittle

How did you get disconnected ? I’d email them they may give you a free entry .

It was my fault I was drafting in the car (not driving) omw to brunch in the middle of nowhere Vermont and lost service haha

Socrdave revealed on the Swolecast this week that he drafts while driving through Nashville traffic lol. Plenty of jokes and disclaimers since then of not drafting while driving.

Getting disconnected is where loaded rankings and roster limits can come in. Although, one time the roster limits ****ed me as I put a player in the queue in the last round and their position exceeded my roster limit designation, so I was auto drafted a different player. I changed it up after that haha.

I tried doing an auto draft last night with my own rankings, but loaded them incorrectly. So I ended up with Henry/Hill and Mixon/Pierce as my first 4 RBs and my last 2 RBs both had week 10 byes.

I've never tried it, but I've definitely been curious how it would go. I enjoy drafting and value my money too much to auto right now, but maybe one day I'll have a big enough bankroll the time saved will be worth it.

Justin auto drafts all 150 of his BBM teams. I'm not sure how many seasons he's done this, but I know he did last year. Not sure what his results were.

Liam auto drafted 150 fast puppy teams a few weeks ago.

yeah I would probably do it more if DK had an option to adjust rankings when a draft starts.

RIP Eli Mitchell.

"Young player on the rise (offense): RB Jordan Mason -- Mason has tantalized with his potential in the past but never been able to seize a larger role (in part because CMC is the focal point). But Mason looks like he's going to grab the top backup role after investing (literally) in ways to improve when he's doing things other than carry the ball. He's a much improved pass catcher and route runner and he's flashed some dynamic ability picking up the blitz. Given the injuries elsewhere at the position, Mason is setting up to really solidify a spot behind CMC."
