This will be very interesting. Stronger keepers at the back end. For funises, my expected ranking after the draft...

1. Rzrback
2. Bro1ncos
3. Duckboy
4. Clash
5. OZ
6. Ref
7. Mr. Ir
8. Old Mil

And I'm definitely splitting hairs here as these teams will be really close.
 
After my first pick, I like the idea of carrying forward (if I survive) a guaranteed TE and also taking the 4th TE out of the pool.

Was not expecting Kelce at #4, but I will take it. Signing off for the night and will see you survivors tomorrow morning.

I wasn’t unhappy to see LaPorta fall to 6.
 
Team rzrback77

QB - Lamar Jackson

RB - Saquon Barkley

WR - not yet

TE - Kelce and Schultz
Lamar vs Jameson was a tough choice for me.
I can see that and when you drafted there were only two QBs taken, but two picks later, I could sense the QB run coming so especially thankful that I took Lamar as three more went off the board in consecutive picks following me.
 
apparently Kupp my ride or die.....it's the end of the Bad Boys movie...Mike Lowwwwwwwrey needs to save my day...
Kupp, Nuk and B Rob were my short list there.
I felt weird drafting hunt here.

RB Cook, Hunt
WR smith, Hopkins, Jameson
TE LaPorta

Don’t like having a handicap at QB but otherwise I like the team so far.

I really like this start. Load up your flexes and punt qb with the last 3 about equivalent.
 
passed on higher ranking QB's for Goff playing indoors....think the weather and the matchups in the other games this weekend don't live up to the hype and keep the scoring lower then people think....know I won't finish high but maybe keep sneaking in the last slot and Lions advance with Goff indoors the rest of the way.....
 
Picks that surprised me

Round 1 - @Stinkin Ref taking Goff as QB2 - Although I agree with the indoor game being a positive as it is going to be very cold at the other three games and possibly some snow, Goff does not have the upside of Allen, L Jackson or even Daniels this weekend. I suspect that the Lions will run early and often until Washington can stop them. The Lions have two really good running backs and can share the load and use the clock to keep Daniels off the field.

Round 2 - The first three picks (Mixon, Kincaid, and Jamo Williams) over the four upside QBs L Jax and Daniels in particular and Hurts or Mahomes as well.

Round 3 - None of these stood out, but perhaps the best picks were Likely and Cooper Kupp

Feel free to unload on my picks or strategy or even any of our other participants
 
QB - Mahomes
RB - Ekeler
WR - ARSB, Zaccheaus, Hollins
TE - Ertz, Higbee

Sniped on each of my first four picks by @Duckboy and @OldMilwaukee - I definitely could have liked this team a lot if this draft had broken a tiny bit differently but not a big fan as it is.

Between that and my lack of strong keepers felt I had no choice but to roll the dice on Higbee's availability. If he's out I'll be the odds-on favorite to finish 8th.

This just came down to Jamo + St# QB vs Lamar + late round flex. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong but I think Jameson has a big game this weekend (and going forward)

I was hoping higbee would fall this round.
 
Heading toward the finish line, most of our teams have their core. We still have four teams without a kicker or defense and two of them have neither. The pickings at the RB/WR/TE are getting slim and we still have two teams without a QB.

Who will take the first of the remaining QBs (Stafford and CJ Stroud). @-OZ- has the next opportunity and then @bro1ncos afterwards
 
Q Stafford
Discussed Before, but I did expect one of the QBs to make it back to me after I took Jameson.

R Cook Hunt Gainwell
Hoping for a short score from Hunt or Gainwell. Not expecting much from Cook this week.

W Nuk McCaffery smith jameson
Two second tier studs, Hopkins should get a few receptions. I had no idea who to take in the 12th.

T Laporta parkinson
Was happy to take Laporta 1.06. Parkinson might get some play.

K zane
Felt odd taking him before a few better kickers but I wanted the guy playing indoors.

D KC
Best defense against probably the least offense.
 
Final projections of FBG Consensus, with @BassNBrew estimates (pretty spot on, except for swapping OZ and Bro1ncos following inside parenthesis

  1. rzrback77 121.4 (1)
  2. OZ 117.4 (5)
  3. Duckboy 114.6 (3)
  4. Clash 112.4 (4)
  5. Bro1nco 111.8 (2)
  6. Stinkin Ref 104.9 (6)
  7. Old Milwaukee 101.3 (8)
  8. Mr. Irrelevant 99.8 (7)

I can't even argue this. At least with Higbee being active, my squad goes from "no chance at all" to "so you're sayin' there a chance".

I have no idea how I am not #8.....I may have assembled the worst team in the history of this playoff league....

Super busy days yesterday and today and thus, no time to update Saturday’s scores with projections.

I hope that I will get to watch most of the Sunday night game.

You look pretty good right now.
 
Not projections, but just to see what we’re looking at

Mr irrelevant 83.25 + karty, bills d, Hollins, higbee
Stinkin ref 73.75 + kyreen,Bateman, agholor, kupp, kincaid
Oz 67.70 + Stafford, Cook, Gainwell, D smith, parkinson
Rzrback 66.5 + Lamar, Saquon, rivers, Amari, Zay, Miller, shakir
Duckboy 63.2 * hurts, ray Davis, Andrews, Goeddert, Bass, ravens d
Old Milwaukee 50.85 + puka, Robinson, j hill, Knox, rams d, Mitchell, Samuel
Bro1nco 43.55 + Henry, AJ, Keon, calcaterra, Wallace, Elliott, eagles d
Clash of titans 37.5 + Allen, Ty Johnson, Tucker, likely, tutu

There’s definitely a path for any team to make it.
imo the safer bets are Ref, Rzrback, and 🦆 but this will be tight.

MI 116.65 + bills D, Hollins
Oz 116.4 + Cook
Rzrback 105.7 + Lamar, Amari, Zay, Miller, shakir
Stinkin ref 96.35 + Bateman, agholor, Kincaid
Old Milwaukee 96.5 + hill, Knox, Mitchell, Samuel
🦆 96.2 + ray Davis, Andrews, Bass, ravens d
Bro1nco 65.95 + Henry, Keon, Wallace
Clash of titans 40.3 + Allen, Ty Johnson, Tucker, likely

Rzrback is in really good shape.
The other three are definitely up for grabs.

Let’s go 🧑‍🍳!
 
I’m OK with waiting until Thursday. A little more injury news to go off of and with only 4 of us should be no issue finishing the draft by Sun. But no strong preference.
 
@BassNBrew - I am a little busy today, but if needed I can do the add/drop thing again late this afternoon. Please let me know if you prefer to do it yourself or could use the help.

Team rzrback77 will keep Kelce KC TE and Saquon Barkley PHI RB. I wanted to drop back to the 3rd slot, but have determined that for the third round of this contest I would prefer the first pick.

@Duckboy is OTC for keeper announcement and draft slot selection.
 
To summarize, the draft order is:

  1. rzrback77 keeps Kelce and Barkley
  2. Duckboy keeps Goedert and Worthy
  3. OZ keeps Dev Smith and James Cook
  4. Mr. Irrelevant appropriately selects the last draft spot and keeps Ertz and Ekeler


Three tight ends, three running backs and two wide receivers are kept. Going to be a long wait until Thursday morning, see y'all then!

Should be good to go. Draft starts at 8am tomorrow. You'll need to skip all the teams at the front and then between all your picks the rest of the way.
 
I kicked off the draft with the selection of Terry McLaurin. Would you guys like to have a group text to let each other know when they are up. I have the cell numbers of @Duckboy and @Mr. Irrelevant. Not sure whether @-OZ- number is on the MFL site or not.
