***2009 Bye Week Peril*** (1 Viewer)

Can we just lock this thread or at least rename it the official whining about byes thread or something so we don't have everyone coming in here and posting about their specific teams and leagues?

Some are just pointing out possible nightmares..... but I agree, this shouldn't be about YOUR team.

This is about managing for bye weeks. That's a pretty significant stretch Jeff posted and it's absolutely Shark Pool material when it keeps the focus on everyone.J

This is about managing for bye weeks. That's a pretty significant stretch Jeff posted and it's absolutely Shark Pool material when it keeps the focus on everyone.J
Yes, I understand that. But that's not the direction the thread was going in at first, which is why I had initially made this post.
 
:goodposting: 's all around for CP here. Good (and quick) stuff.

I bet he sends out some "bye week peril" special trade offers tonight. :boxing:

On the bright side, that 7-8 swing doesn't seem to feature a super amount heavy-hitters from a fantasy standpoint (sitting here in April). Week nine looks toughest. But teams with tight rosters spots will definitely have trouble with depth on these weeks. Since most teams still have a shot at the fantasy playoffs during this time, managers will have to make tough calls.

 
Seeing, "5 Jones, Kevin CHI" listed on the "Significant RBs" list made me laugh.

Seeing the following listed on the same list just two weeks later made me laugh even harder.

7 Arrington, J.J. DEN

7 Torain, Ryan DEN

7 Hillis, Peyton DEN

7 Jordan, LaMont DEN

7 Buckhalter, Correll DEN

How can anyone know which Denver RB will be significant or if any will be? :lmao:

I was trying to be helpful and list most players who would be rostered in leagues right now. If you don't like the word 'significant', fine, pick another word. How about you go to the trouble of posting 350 names and I'll nit-pick at you.

2 funny.Good posts and im sure its appreciated by many. The world s full of ________. Let em nit-pick. It may fill a void in their life or something.
 
Thanks for the info CP. Always enjoy your posts, solid mix of knowledge with entertainment value added. :goodposting:

Kevin Jones a year removed from his nasty injuries could be more involved in the Bears plans this season. They do need to limit Forte to some degree.One or two of the Denver backs should be significant (or at least somewhat useful) by that point in the season - things will be more sorted out.Basically its a list of players that will miss those weeks, use it for what it is.

If this is true, maybe Jeff should have posted ALL bye weeks.

This brings up an interesting question (at least to me). Is FBG doing anything with DD software to help manage this? I don't have a clue or suggestion on what _could_ be done, hoping you smart guys can figure out a way to help us out on this one. Let me know if I should redirect to a different forum.
 
this could be the year for someone to invest in the therory to stock up on players with the same bye week to solidify the rest of the season.

im not a huge supporter of this practice , but if there was ever a time for someone to do it , this could be the year.

Week 8 Team ..

Brady , Portis , LJ , #85 , Randy Moss, Steelers D...with Palmer , Graham, A. Bryant, Santontio as subs possibly.

As bad as the three weeks of back-to-back-to-back of SIX teams sitting, WEEK 5 looks like an important week with some potentially powerful offenses sitting, that being Chicago, Green Bay, New Orleans ans San Diego.

I'm sorry CP. That wasn't a slam on what you were doing. I think it was very helpful and appreciate it. :shrug: It just struck me as funny to consider K Jones as significant. Again...not a slam on your fine contribution, just a slam on KJ.And the fact that you had to list 5 Denver RBs just goes to show the trouble with Denver RBs. Maybe I'm just twisted.Please take no offense.
 
First time in years the Lions haven't had their bye in week 3 or 4. This is the turning point.
Yeah it will be a relief to see them going into the week 7 bye with a losing record instead of the week 4 bye with a losing record.... :goodposting: I would look closely at the "bye week" team this year too. Instead of fielding a weak team for 3 weeks, pencil in a loss for 1 week with the increased odds of the other 2 weeks in the W column.
 
On my IDP dynasty team, I've got 4 of my 5 D-linemen off in Week 9, so now I can hit our draft and free agency knowing I need a DT and DE who are NOT off those weeks.

 
That wasn't a slam on what you were doing. I think it was very helpful and appreciate it. :thumbdown:
Thanks. :thumbup:The other reason I went so deep was to get down far enough to show most of the offseason player movement for people who haven't been paying close attention since last year. The DEN RB mess is an example of that. In are Arrington, CBuck, Jordan, out are Pope, Pittman, Boyd, Tatum. I maybe didn't get deep enough since I didn't show Selvin Young or Andre Hall, but with the new guys there I think Young and Hall may be gone before September anyway.

Lets turn it into discussion: Unless it is for a backup, shouldnt you be happy if all your starters have the same bye week?

I mean, I would rather have a 60 point missign from my lineup game than 6 10 points missing from my lineup games, wouldn't you? If during bye weeks my opponents are at at -10 for the season, I'd like to be at full strength for all but one week. Just sayin, only worry about bye weeks for backup fill-ins.

I've thought about this a bit.Let's say you play head to head (H2H) and you are basically writing off a week due to byes - to the point where you're almost shopping for guys with byes that week.So now you're 0-1 before you even start.If you play a typical H2H schedule of 13 games, odds are that it will take at least 7 wins, likely 8 or more, to get into the playoffs. That's 5 or fewer losses if you're shooting for 8-5, and now you just took one before you even start. That's not much margin for error.This is even more of an issue if you play in a bigger contest league or a more playoff oriented league (i.e. fewer regular season games). WCOFF plays 11 games, IIRC and other big contests have a shorter regular season. Going 0-1 out of the blocks means even more in that case.Now if you play in All Play leagues, this may not be as bad because you play 100+ games a year (11 or more a week). Going 0-11 is something you can recover from, but even then I'd be hesitant to try and plan for it.

But you are also getting a 10 to 15 point advantage against your opponent every single other week. You just don't like the trade off?And I'm not saying plan for it, just that it definitely isn't a bad thing if it happens.
 
I agree with Instinctive - I'd rather have all my key guys on a bye week at the same time and just write that off and have an edge in most/all of the other bye weeks. But I can't imagine this really being practical to try to target guys from the same bye week. You'd end up reaching at some position when you'd be better off just taking the best guy available regardless of byes.

But I have always thought that if people paid practically any attention to bye weeks it was too much attention. You're better off getting the best guys than trying to get a 3rd RB who for certain doesn't have the same bye as your top 2 guys. I'd rather draft a guy who I think could well wind up starting for me many weeks or helping me trade into an upgrade at another position because he's capable of starting for somebody else. I mean - I guess bye week could be a tiebreaker if you're torn between 2 guys but that's about it.

I think bye weeks are only important for things like the FBG Subscribers Contest.

 
Oh it's totally impractical to target them...I'm just saying that if it comes down to pairing Wes Welker with either Dwayne Bowe or Marques Colston, IF i had both ranked exactly the same, I take Bowe because he has same bye week.

Again, thsi situation will probably occur less than 1% of the time, so practically it is irrelevant. In theory though, it certainly is a lot of fun to discuss : )

Would you be so kind as to tell me how you get Brady/Portis/Moss on the same team when their real draft ADPs range from 1.8-2.6?That said, I like the strategy, and if I can land Brady/Moss at 1.12, 2.1 I might just try to implement it.

Welker and Moss at the 1/2 turn was $$$ last year.You CAN do this - I'm just giving the other sides to the argument. Based on ADP, you can target Week 4 like this, assuming early pick:1. Turner2. Boldin 3. Roddy White 4. Tony Gonzalez5. Donovan McNabbThat's QB, 1 RB, 2WR and a TE to start.3.
 
I'm actually more worried about the week 4 and week 5 bye than I am with these "superbye" weeks. I'm finding myself with lots of week 4 guys in alot of mocks, and its happened for week 5 as well. Probably cause of these star-studded bye weeks:

Week 4:

4 top 10 WRs: L. Fitzgerald, A. Boldin, S. Smith, R. White

3 top 20 RBs: D. Williams, B. Westbrook, M. Turner

Week 5:

4 big name QBs: J. Cutler, A. Rodgers, D. Brees, P. Rivers

Its probably because I'm picking from the 2 spot in a 12 team serpentine, but I'm seeing those Week 4 WRs on the turn ALOT, and I'm not the least bit scared to pick 2 of them.
