2023-24 Playoff Survivor (1 Viewer)

We are drafting 12 spots
This is still the plan, right? Because MFL only shows 10 rounds in the draft right now.
I was just getting ready to post a message about this. I'll try to fix this tonite, but we may have to do the last two rounds in this forum.

Also you can back up your QB and kicker, but you can't double dip at that position from another team. There should be 3 unused QBs, D, and K at the end of the draft.
 
6.05 Smith, DeVonta PHI WR 7:15:22 p.m.

:lmao: I can't wait for when the Eagles lose to the Bucs 21-3 on Monday and my team finishes 9th by 40 points.
 
Decided to break the kicker seal. Mostly because there’s a bunch this week that I do not want! 🙅‍♂️
 
I'll trade you my 2 of my 3 top WR are GTD
I’ve gotten the feeling every player is questionable at best.
Taxi how many questionable guys. Kind of glad we only had 9 teams this year otherwise it would have been a battle of selecting guys who will play
passed on a ton of "better" options due to weather as well....
yeah, Trubisky was tempting. I can see why you pivots to Goff.
 
sorry boys I may have an illegal roster.....was on my way to ref and on my phone and made snap picks not really realizing I was at the point where I needed to take a pk or dst....hate the phone app...but it is what it is....I'm fine with taking my medicine and not having a pk or dst and also throwing Atwell back in the pool....whatever is determined to be fair...honest mistake....do whatever....one of my favorite weekends of the year.....good luck ...enjoy... :suds:

I would say wait until the end, drop your Tutu, then pick what ever you still need from the scraps.
 
So looks like I'm all in for solid offensive games from Philly and GB. And hope that I don't throw up a couple zeros at WR before the kickoff happens.

Usually suck at this contest so my strategy was to stay away from the bad weather games except BUF defense, but would have liked them anyway. Not super confident in PHI or GB winning, but they have a shot. Tried to cover the Watson pick with Doubs, but would have preferred Melton.
 
Picking last, my top objectives were to use the early rounds on guys from teams I projected to win this weekend (Cle, Buff, Dal, TB) to get a couple of decent keepers for next week, choose healthy over the many questionable, and avoid the downfield passing game players and kickers in the snow and cold games. This roster resulted.
 
Well, I made an excel file to figure my estimated points for all games, based on my estimated points for the complete playoffs. Then I highlighted all Pittsburgh players to avoid. The intention was to avoid in the first four rounds. Then I got busy doing yard projects and also got into the IBL playoff points to try to determine a way to prove that FootballGuys won the league. So, we get down to round six and I think that I forgot about the Pitt WRs. I think that @Mr. Irrelevant got a huge bargain on D. Johnson and possibly @bro1ncos on Pickens.

I don't like my team much, but also forgot that we only can carry two max players forward. I really need Detroit to win to carry Amon-Ra St. Brown forward or one of my two TEs (Schultz and Ferguson) to dominate. I feel pretty confident of finishing #8 or above, but I think the top four or five had an advantage next week.

At least two brain stops make this team very odd, indeed.

For a guy that has never liked the Cowboys, I say in my best Dak Prescott voice, "Here we go!"
 
1.06 - Diggs; considered Tyreek here but the bills seem more likely to win this week.

2.04 Gibbs; considered puka and kupp but not that much

3.06 Aaron Jones; thought long about AJ brown. Might regret it but I think the pack lean on Jones to keep it close

4.04 Reed; Hurts was a strong consideration but figured I’d hope my initial QB target fell to me later

5.06 LaPorta; obviously only fell here due to injury. Could be a SoD, could be a wasted pick.

6.04 Stafford; while I’ll be cheering for the lions and I think they win, it should be a high scoring game as Matt goes home in Detroit’s biggest game in many years. Stafford was my target QB when we started.

7.06 Noah brown; I needed another WR, he seems the best left

8.04 Aubrey; easy pick imo. Best K, in a likely high scoring game, without weather concerns.

9.06 Brock Wright; LaPorta insurance

10.04 Pierce; seems the most likely to score a point out of what’s left. Considered Gabe Davis to stash but I’m not confident enough in these guys scoring and I took my risk on LaPorta.

11.06 Taylor; had Gallup queued but got sniped. Would have taken any wr with a fair chance to score a point

12.04 🐬 D; never bet against Mahomes but the weather will have an affect.

Overall I don’t love it but hopefully I don’t get 9th and the lions win.
 
1.01 Kelce: been stinkin up the joint but with 2PPR and guys like LaPorta hurt....what the heck....it's time

2.09 Kupp: gotta start 3....they are indoors

3.01 Evans: gotta start 3....lots of questionable's at WR (AJ etc)....he's not....almost took Goedert

4.09 Harris: pleasantly surprised to be able to get him as RB1.....Mostert still available but playing it safe

5.01 Robinson: playing inside....heard what weather is like in BUF, something about blizzard like stuff during the game so passed on both PIT WR...did however sniff Friermuth...and almost double up with Warren

6.09 Gainwell: in this format decent RB2 as he gets touches

7.01 Wicks: he is playing inside, GB will probably need to throw.....some questions about Watson etc....has earned some PT.....thats all I'm looking for here

8.09 Knox: will get some PT.....outside shot at a TD

9.01Goff: heading in, he was kind of my target.....him or Stafford....Rams D is turrible against the pass.....no LaPorta kind of sucks and DET can run....but....he's indoors

10.01 Wilson: probably a wasted pick if Mostert plays....but if he doesn't, Wilson could get some touches and provides a 3rd RB option

11.01 Atwell---Carlson: as I mentioned screwed the pooch here without realizing it at the time....apologies....replacement pick....you guessed it....he's inside

12.09 Whatever D I get

total meh.....weird draft passing on all the better options.....survive and advance....wing and a prayer with no real solid keeper options

I swap Taylor for Atwell
 
1. Hill - Didn't look at the weather. Probably should have taken Cook.
2. Pacheco - Wanted to lock in one great keeper so I took the best Chef.
3. Rice - Last clear WR1. I think the Chefs win so Pacheco and Rice make a nice combo.
4. Achane - Highest rated RB left. Wanted Swift. If Miami upsets Hill/Achane will be money keeps
5. Otton - Plan was Laporta then Muth or Musgrave on the return. Oz did his thing. Pivoted to Otton.
6. Musgrave - I think he's back as GB TE1. With 2ppr I needed another at bat.
7. Palmer - After research, he appears to be getting targets in Tampa and Philly D is the suck. Wanted Noah Brown and Woods on the return.
8. Woods - Not letting Oz get both after he messed up my plan.
9. Hardman - Had a great week to finished the season. With KC missing 2 WRs and their general mess, hoping he's the fix.
10. Badgley - Indoor kicker in high scoring game. Already hugely invested in Mahr in other leagues. Considered Fairbum.
11. Flacco - Never would have predicted this a month ago. Plan all along was Flacco or Stroud. Jut want to root for Flacco. Didn't want to commit a keeper swing to a QB
12. Philly D - Sucked for me in IBL. It would be my luck to pass on them after playing them all year and they blow up.

Hoping Rzrback does the projection thing. I think I can avoid the last spot if any points get posted in KC tonight. If it's a 7-3 game, I'm sunk.
 
Been outside working all day and my wife has me delivering soup to some folks shortly, so I will do that tonight late.
 
OK, here is the projections of this weekend's games, except since I posted these after the first game I used actual scores in the Houston Texans romp over Cleveland. Per request of @BassNBrew I used the projections of M. Tremblay.

Why does @-OZ- have only 11 players

1. Bro1ncos 141.8
2. Duckboy 139.8
3. rzrback77 134.9
4. Mr. Irrelevant 127.2
5. Stinkin Ref 122.6
6. BassnBrew 121.7
7. Old Mil 118.2
8. Go DC You 117.7
9. OZ 103.8

I did these in a hurry and I do not guarantee that they are perfect

Atwell didn't take for Oz. I have corrected.

Usually it takes 150 to 160 to win a week and 115 to advance.

Currently at 91.65 with 3/4 of my horses in the barn. Def and kicker should get me 15. TE is projected for 9 and flex 7-1=6. That would put me at 121.65 vs. a projection of 121.7.

It’s early of course but I’m probably out this week. 🤷‍♂️

I like it, but does this account for AJ Brown being ruled out?
 
Update includes actual scoring from the KC vs Miami game:

1. Bro1ncos 141.8
2. rzrback77 134.6
3. BassnBrew 127.7
4. Mr. Irrelevant 127.2

7. Stinkin Ref 122.0
8. Go DC You 113.7
9. OZ 100.1

And A.J. Brown does show as zero points for
 
I turned off the Cowboys game with about 5:00 to play. Thankful that Prescott kept chucking it to Ferguson. Amon-Ra St. Brown is such a fun player to watch. So excited for Lions fans and that they will host another home game next weekend.
 
A few of you look safe but it looks like about 5 of us could lose here.

@rzrback77 dominating. Quality keepers too with the Sun God and snoopy err Schultz.

A Philly win would sure help make my keeper decision a lot easier.

Without digging deep into the next draft yet, if Tampa Bay wins, I could finish top 2 and not have any keepers.

Love and Doubs could possibly be but are they really? Only other options could be Christian Watson, Bills D, Pickens, or Brevin Jordan
