    Playoff League/Contest Strategy - Assessing NFL Team Playoff Success

    Since a lot of use are in playoff contests and fantasy leagues I thought I would start a thread on the topic. For playoff contests, I feel like one thing they all have in common is the need to identify the teams that will go deep into playoffs, including identifying dark horse candidates...

    Non-Playoff teams - What went wrong?

    Every year around this time I try to assess what went wrong with my non-playoff teams, with particular focus on the draft. Using my main auction league for this year, I went in with the following plan this year 1. Get an elite RB with a no history of injury, I succeeded here, but it was...

    Friday game: Post a synonym of the previously posted word

    Simple game that can turn funny. Post a 1-2 word synonym of the word posted above yours. Commentary is fine as long as we dont lose track of the latest word. I'll start with a word: Explosive

    Drafting in leagues that draft QBs way too early

    I'm in a local league, and after looking at some league history, one thing that stands out to me is how early they take QBs. On average, they take QBs a full round or more earlier than ADP. To make matters worse, this is a standard 4 pt/TD league. Has anyone ever dealt with this? On the...

    League History Deep Dive - An incredibly useful piece of info to have going into a draft

    This year, I really took a deep dive into league history for my snake league draft. This gave me a TON of useful info to take into my draft next week. I think knowledge like this is just as useful if not more useful than nitpicking your player rankings. I downloaded drafts from the last two...

    What's your #1 non-player specific piece of advice/takeaway for drafts?

    I'm not quite sure if this thread will work out or not but humor me. We all have our own principles/rules we follow when drafting. Things like "Never draft a Cleveland Brown" or "No QBs until round 4". I want to know some examples of these that you guys take into your drafts. This should be...

    VORP and Auction values

    I'm trying to calculate some auction budget values for each player using VORP. I'm at the point where I've calculated the VORP and have allocated total auction dollars to each player using the VORP percentages. However, the way VORP works, players below the baseline get negative points. These...

    Do public slow draft league sites still exist?

    I feel the itch for a slow draft league and can't seem to find anything like this. Did anyone fill the space once antsports went down?

    Is it wrong to deal with loss/tragedy by using humor?

    The recent locking of the sub thread had me thinking about this again. I tend to deal with loss and tragedy by using humor. I firmly believe in laughter being the best medicine. Is this wrong or offensive somehow? Now, a caveat here. Some tact is obviously necessary with this approach. I'm...

    The thread for people who do their own projections

    Let's have a thread on making our own projections. How many of you do this? What stats/information do you use? I like to make my own projections, not because I think I'm better at projecting than the experts, but because it really helps me get to know every player and not form biases, and...

    Surprisingly Bad Offenses this year

    We have a great thread discussing surprisingly good offenses. How about the bad ones? Which teams are going to underperform expectations this year? Last year looking back I think we can say the Rams were one of the top candidates. Coming off a Superbowl victory nobody expected them to tank...

    Aging Studs: Travis Kelce and Derrick Henry. How are you handling them this year?

    One of the things I hate trying to guess every year are studs who are close to hitting the wall in terms of productivity. This year, it's once again Travis Kelce and Derrick Henry at the forefront of this discussion. Last year, both of these guys were coming into the season having shown...

    Will last year's historically low drop in scoring continue into 2023?

    Now that the draft is done, it's time to start work on projections. When doing projections, I look at teams holistically before diving into individual projections. One interesting takeaway from last year was the historic low level of touchdowns, specifically passing touchdowns. Passing TDs...

    2022 Hindsight - Which of these situations could we have predicted?

    There will always be situations that happen over the course of the season that everyone fails to predict and the pre-season consensus is way off on. But there seem to be some pretty wild outliers this year in terms of team offenses in the NFL compared to how we (and Vegas) predicted. These...

    Fanduel Week 6

    Here's my player pool for this week give or take.  So far, the chalk has been to pay up at RB and find value at WR.  This might be the first week it makes more sense to spread salary around the positions a bit more evenly.   Cash games QB: Watson in KC in what could be a shootout.  Lamar...
