12-team ppr, 20-man rosters 1 qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 te, 2 flex, 1 k, 1 def Team a (8-0) received: Michael Thomas, jax def Team b (rebuild) received: juju, 2018 1st round pick from team a, bills def

Does this fit what everyone is seeing thus far? QBs: Way down compared to preseason consensus. The "big 3" have been huge disappointments and are being surpassed by Jackson, Mayfield, etc RB: awesome, deep group with a potential 1.01 overall in Barkley WR: lacking high-end elite talent but solid depth TE: Not many 1st or 2nd round talents to speak of

Agholor looks like the Eagles' most dynamic/explosive playmaker. If confidence and mental issues were his problems, this string of solid production will be extremely beneficial for him

Annoying how this guy was the model of consistency in college, yet the day he turns pro has a lingering hamstring problem. #### happens though. Fingers crossed for no setbacks and we can enjoy this guy's talent

Williams is clearly failing as a pass catcher, but excelling as a blocker on the outside. And blocking is what teams really value in their #2 WRs /s Butler not playing more is a failure of the Cowboys' coaching staff

Underrated redraft and dynasty waiver add

One way for Fuller to increase targets is for Hopkins' impossibly/unsustainable target share to decrease

It's pretty obvious at this point Murray is bad, right? He barely cracked 4 ypc last year with a top 3 offensive line in Oakland. He was/is a touchdown dependent between the tackles grinder. McKinnon doesn't have quite the 3-down skillset that Cook does, but the talent gap between McKinnon and Murray is so large it would be a mistake not to use McKinnon in that role I think.

Keep in mind, McKinnon is the most athletic rb in the league. Last year was completely lost for Minnesota rb's due to an injury-plagued offensive line, so I think it would be a mistake to extrapolate last year's stats to this season. Looking forward, if used in a similar way to Dalvin (which is a bit of a stretch given Murray got the start last night. Murray is awful though and any touch he receives over McKinnon is a missed opportunity), we can expect similar production to what Dalvin gave us through 4 weeks.

Thankfully Treadwell was drafted young, because he seems to be more of a long-term hold. Unfortunate for him, he's behind the best WR duo in the league and neither of them are close to past their primes

Yeah I agree his "value" is a bit higher than what I received. But over the offseason and first 4 weeks I received 0 offers in a league that is fairly active in terms of trades. And it was obvious Gronk didn't fit my window (or lack thereof)

I meant that the 2018 1st round pick is from a very good team (top 4 contender). So it's likely a late 1st

12-team PPR dynasty: I traded him away for a late 2018 1st round pick, chris godwin, and jonnu Smith My team is terrible and Gronk is by far my best player, so holding this year and next made little to no sense for my squad. I shopped him for ~1 week to every owner where it made sense to and this was the best trade I could swing. Seems like I got ~70% value for him

12 team PPR, deep rosters Team A (contender) received: Gronk Team B (bad roster, rebuilding) received: Chris Godwin, Jonnu Smith, 2018 1st round pick (from likely top 4 team)

One way I look at athleticism is that, assuming a prospect has the baseline requisite measurables (which exact values can be debated), it matters if a prospect under- or over-performs his athleticism. Just to use a couple extreme examples, Diggs and DGB (remember him?). Diggs had a very young breakout age and was very productive in college despite modest combine #s. DGB (or justin hunter etc) were athletic freaks yet didn't amount to much in terms of production. If a prospect is bigger and faster than their peers and still can't produce, it's a major red flag. And likewise, if a prospect is extremely productive and is a minus athlete (yet still above the baseline requirement), that can often be a strong indicator of a special prospect. McGuire may have that "something else" factor that isn't captured at the combine. Although, i would rate his athleticism as average rather than below average
