I remember the insanity of this thread when Gibbs was a rookie. Good times.

The Eagles offense has one game over 30 points this season (against the Giants, when they ran for close to 300 yards). The other three games with 30+ points involved a defense or special teams score. I have a few pieces of this offense across various leagues and it's just painful to watch...

I had Loveland in my lineup in one of my flex spots all week. Changed it this morning for Emmanuel Wilson. Yeah, I'm an idiot. On the bright side, it's a dynasty league and I'm feeling much better about Loveland going forward.

Just for frame of reference, I spent a little over 40% of my FAAB budget last year for Chase after week 4. I expect he'll be more expensive now coming off his WR1 season and with only one bad week under his belt. After week 2 last year, Gibbs went for just over 50% of our available budget.

I'm just tired. It's been almost 25 years since the team won a playoff game and even longer since the team has been a true contender. For me, that cutoff is a 12+ win season, and the Fins haven't won 12 games in the regular season since 1990, a whopping 35 years. The team hasn't won 12+ games...

No Superflex, No PPR (but switching to 1 PPR next year). However, we have to start a rookie, so you'll generally see QBs go like it's a Superflex and Kickers will get drafted too. PickPlayer 1.01Jeanty, Ashton LVR RB (R) 1.02Ward, Cam TEN QB (R) 1.03Hampton, Omarion LAC RB (R)...

Thanks. It's a fun rule that creates some interesting strategies and values. Although one unfortunate part is that whiffing on a 1st round pick can torpedo a season regardless of how good the rest of the team is.

Yeah. First round picks are incredibly valuable in that league since it's a lot more difficult to have a viable starter at rookie without one. But we still see them moved, usually by contenders who are loading up for a potential title run. Moving to PPR should help flatten value and make 2nd...

12 team No PPR (but we're moving to PPR next season), 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, TE, plus we have to start a rookie, which skews values (our drafts tends to look more like Superflex drafts). Players can only be kept for the length of their contract (max is four years). I completed one trade yesterday...

I care way more about Restrepo's times in the cone drill and other measures of quickness. Not that I know how he did on those (or if he ever ran those drills), but I don't think is 40 time is all that relevant to how he'll do in the NFL.

Yeah. You basically never get enough points from a rookie TE to justify starting them as a rookie, so that's a wasted season. Even Bowers, in a historic season for a rookie TE, was only the #9 rookie this season and #11 on a points/game basis, just behind a kicker. Rookie QBs are insanely...

I'm one of the idiots that took Brooks over Bowers. My logic at the time seemed okay but was shaky in hindsight (my thought was Brooks was going to be playing by mid-season and the starter late, and we have to start a rookie, which isn't very TE-friendly). At this point, it was just downright...

Lost a close game in dynasty for the third time in four weeks because the Rams stopped using Kyren. But the Fins won, so I'm happy overall.

Other than a Deebo (or maybe Kittle) owner, who is buying at a high price right now? My WR corps in dynasty (where I have Jennings) is banged up or not very good outside of Flowers, so my options are to either start Jennings while he's viable or sell for maybe a 3rd or 4th round pick. I think...

In the scenario where Tua is done, I agree with just punting on 2025. Either draft a QB next year or the following year, dump or trade every high priced player over a certain age, and just take your medicine. To me the debate is whether to keep the high priced guys who are young. Maybe look...
