i could see him going back to baltimore wih flacco getting old and not actually bing that good...

was surprised to see him cut in a 16 team dynasty league with 40 man rosters and 5 IR spots.  I snapped him up and will IR him til next year.  He's stil pretty young, and last i read is they expect him fully healthy as a FA in 2018...

Would love him on the giants as the new Tiki Baber.

Started my first two the other day/  Observations so far:  People are sticking almost religiously to ADP so far.  Not a huge amount of variation, and no real reaches bout half way through the 3rd round.  RBs are flying off the board much faster than in the recent dynasty startups I've done.  13...

thanks!  great explanation.

it's not the same.  its different.  and which is better depends completely on whether there are more close games or more lopsided games.  Without looking at the data over a number of leagues, it is ambiguous which is better.  But if there is a preponderance of higher spreads, then inconsistent...

if i am the giants i would give a 3rd, or even a 2nd, in a new york minute.

isn't there a salary floor, as well as a salary cap?

http://overthecap.com/salary-cap/cleveland-browns What do we think they do with all that money?  Who do they go after in free agency?  I figure they resign pryor and crowell, then what?

not necessarily.  If without the player in question you are down by 20, 0 or 15 does not matter, you still lose.  30 you win.  Its an empirical question based on how close games tend to be.

Have been brushing up on some great Adam Harstad articles on dynasty.  Came across this one http://subscribers.footballguys.com/apps/article.php?article=HarstadDiT3 about consistency.  I think that he understates his case.  If it is true that the majority of fantasy games are not close, an...

Rookies are also not used to playing this many games  in a season, even without counting post season  (they call it the rookie wall). That makes resting zeke and dak more logical, though not necessarily more likely. We are talking about Jerry jones here...

In economics, you go from risk aversion (loss aversion) to risk neutral (pure expected value no extra weighting to losses or gains) to risk preferring 

I was in the bowl last year and had OBJ.  I still would not have split. And ended up winning.  Suspensions, injuries, bad beats, all are part of the game.  The league rules for each league set the payouts and the "proper" split between champion and runner up.  Circumventing that with a side deal...

I was offered this just today and said no. Chopping or splitting the pot just feels off to me, against the spirit of the game. But In a situation like this, I would not agree to or offer a split, but would cut him a check if I won as a Christmas gift.
