Congrats @firstseason1988 @dbc925 and @UFFLCommish ! Impressive championship runs.
I finished 58th so just missed my modified goal of the top 50. Thanks @Joe Bryant for another great contest and I appreciate your generosity.

@Joe Bryant - I have no idea what email address I used when I first signed up for this service 75 years ago. Is there any information you need from me for the contest payout?
You can pm @Contest Turk and he'll let you know what email you used.

OMG, I haven't paid attention all year and I ended up #76. Can't believe my team survived all the cut lines. Congrats to the winners!

Dude, there is just something fundamentally wrong with this post.

Anyone else who finished in the money got their email yet on how to receive payout? Been looking, what's in the subject line, who is it from? It has only been 5 days, so there is still time, but just making sure I didn't miss anything.

Congrats to the winners! I’m genuinely happy to finish 124th and earn a free subscription. Thanks Joe. Always loved the contest and looking forward to the Postseason Contest.

My team truly stunk. I have no idea how it lasted so long. I just assumed I got bounced early and never followed along. I must have had a weekly breakout where one guy had his only good week all year and pushed me above the line.

Tons of great picks on your team and very few injuries. I'd say Mosert, Collins, Love, Reed, Kincaid, LaPorta all exceeded expectations.

Got my free subscription email today, subject line was "You're Awesome - FREE Footballguys Gift Subscription Inside!".
I mean, I assume that's what it was. Can't imagine anyone I know giving me a gift FBG subscription.
Thanks for running this contest every year @Joe Bryant! It's always a ton of fun (unless I get knocked out in Week 3), and your generosity in the prizes is amazing.

I don't want to bother Joe with a simple question like this if I can avoid it. Anyone have experience with my situation?
I received the email for my Pro Subscription winnings. My current Elite subscription expires in March. When I "claim" the prize, will it just extend my subscription another 12 months from March or will it be 12 months from now? Also, I want to upgrade again to the Elite subscription, will I just pay the difference between the two when I go to upgrade?

When does the email get sent to the top 7 finishers? Haven't see anything yet and the 14 days is almost up. Thanks @Joe Bryant
Hi Folks,
Apologies for the delay. Email should go to the top 5 finishers by end of day tomorrow. For that level of prize, it takes a small bit of paperwork. Be looking tomorrow. Apologies for delay, that's all on me.

I can't start the 2024 thread too early, but wanted to pass on some kicker stats from 2023. Weeks 1-14 were the regular season, and 15-17 were the finals. In the regular season:
- Dustin Hopkins ($3) was K1 with 147.4 points (15.9 points ahead of K2). He was the 3rd most common K, making 1220 owners very happy.
- Tristan Vizcaino ($6), Cade York ($4), Elliott Fry, Robbie Gould, and Caleb Shudak ($3 each) were all FA's when the contest closed, and the 5 least common kickers (as expected)
- Michael Badgley ($3) was also a FA for the first 14 weeks, but he sucked in 1153 owners, making him the 6th most common (@ZWK and I warned everyone about this clown)
- Cameron Dicker ($4) was the most common kicker by far, with 2413 owners. Greg Zuerlein ($4) was a distant 2nd, with 1296 owners.
- Justin Tucker ($8) was the most expensive kicker once again. He scored 127.8 points and was K5 through the regular season, but wasn't worth it (see below)
- The best $3 spent was Dustin Hopkins, as he was K1 with 147.4 points
- The best $4 spent was Brandon McManus, as he was K2 with 131.5 points
- The best $5 spent was Jake Elliott, as he was K3 with 130.9 points

Not looking at bye weeks but at a glance, a Love/Goff or Love/Herbet or Herbert/Goff combo seems pretty solid to me and then spend on other positions.

You?

I tend to veer towards pocket passers vs running QB's, because of the contest scoring. For example, if you search last year's top QB's, Hurts is typically QB2 and Prescott is QB3, but not using the contest scoring. They are flip-flopped. That said, I guess I would like a combo of Herbert/Stafford/Tua/Goff/Purdy

Love - 17
Tagovailoa - 14
Rodgers - 13
Herbert - 12
R Wilson - 9
Then I'd look at bye weeks. I'm tempted to go 3 qbs with Rodgers/Herbert/Wilson.

At those prices, I'd say Love, Tua, Goff and even Minshew are steals.
TheWinz
Footballguy
The prices are based on current FBG QB rankings and contest price averages for the last 3 years. If the order of the rankings stays the same, I would expect the prices to be pretty accurate.
a_troll00
Footballguy
Perhaps, but Allen and Hurts are valued based on their rushing TDs. The OCs really need to knock that crap off if they want to lengthen the careers of their star QBs.
Barkley is definitely going to take away Hurts' rushing TDs. Is Allen really just gonna be allowed to play hero ball again all season. Not sure I'd trust those two putting up those same numbers again this season.
smbkrypt24
Footballguy
Immediately jumping out was Minshew, Stafford, Herbert, Cousins
TheWinz
Footballguy
In the last 3 years, Allen has been priced at $25, $25, and $26
In the last 3 years, Hurts has been priced at $25, $19, and $15
Although I don't roster the top-priced QB's, I have to say they've both been worth it all 3 years.

Stafford and Love easily. You would save so much money for other things, they had early bye weeks for this contest and they were two of the hottest qbs for for fantasy to finish the year.

Depends on the prices of their stackmates, but just looking at QBs I like Herbert and Williams. Though maybe I'd swap out Williams for Daniels, Maye, or someone else.

Week 14 bye is late and hard to invest much here. Avoiding this group.
Levis - 8 New pass friendly offense, early bye, cheap price. Far from comfortable pick but could pay off
Stafford - 10 early bye, pass friendly offense with multiple weapons, attractive price
Dimes - 7 contract scares me team may bench him to save money, IF he plays all season should be a smash pick with rushing upside and Nabers. Don’t like the late bye but cost is low
As a Steelers fan, will probably go with Russ or Fields, and two from the group above.

Fun fact from last year
The 2nd and 8th most common D's were PHI (1503) and SF (1129). They cost $7 each. Combined, they scored 139 for the contest, with 25 coming in the final 3 weeks.
The 20th and 29th most common D's were HOU (397) and LV (182). They cost $3 each. Combined, they scored 157 for the contest, with 59 coming in the final 3 weeks.

It’s ok iggy. Who gonna read this thread after the new one is added to the message bored. Besides we get to submit another lineup week 2.
I always thought a group of core subscriber contest regulars would band together and create a collaborative entry. Identify the best team structure and value plays. Like paying for the top D and K is a sure thing.
