There are always a handful of entries that spend way under the cap, which I assume are people who just check some boxes and submit and forget to come back to it later. Notably, this staff entry only spent $234 on a total of 21 players.
Yeah, I think I could find a decent way to spend that extra $16 in this contest, unless he’s just hoping to show off by making the finals without spending all his budget.
 
14.3% TD Falcons ATL $3
For those wondering why the Falcons are so popular, it's their finals schedule. They face Minshew/O'Connell, then Daniel Jones, and end with Jayden Daniels
And have the projected easiest schedule for the season.

I used their defense…

And had RB Tyler in and Pitts in for my many renditions …but in end just used the ATL defense….hope I didn’t screw it up leaving out Pitts

Using Iggy's numbers, here is a very common roster. I used a little poetic license, because I had to make it $250 and try to account for bye weeks. Also, I didn't want to overload at any position.

QB - Kyler Murray - ARI/11 - $20
QB - Jayden Daniels - WAS/14 - $17
$37 spent on the 2 most common QB's

RB - De'Von Achane - MIA/6 - $21
RB - Kenneth Walker III - SEA/10 - $20
RB - Javonte Williams - DEN/14 - $14
RB - Jerome Ford - CLE/10 - $11
RB - JK Dobbins - LAC/5 - $8
RB - Rico Dowdle - DAL/7 - $8
$68 spent on the 5 most common RB's

WR - Amon-Ra St. Brown - DET/5 - $34
WR - Malik Nabers - NY/11 - $19
WR - Rashee Rice - KC/6 - $13
WR - Rome Odunze - CHI/7 - $11
WR - Khalil Shakir - BUF/12 - $10
$87 spent on the 5 most common WR's

TE - Kyle Pitts - ATL/12 - $17
TE - George Kittle - SF/9 - $15
TE - Taysom Hill - NO/12 - $8
$40 spent on the 3 most common TE's

PK - Younghoe Koo - ATL/12 - $6
PK - Jake Bates - DET/5 - $3
PK - Joshua Karty - LAR/6 - $3
I had to pass on Dicker & Sanders due to bye weeks, and ended up with 1st, 3rd, and 5th most common K's

TD - Atlanta Falcons - ATL/12 - $3
TD - Green Bay Packers - GB/10 - $3
$6 spent on the 2 most common D's

I would never roster a $6 kicker, but I like this team.
 
most common player roster
QB - Jared Goff - DET/5 - $18 - 4th
QB - Matthew Stafford - LAR/6 - $13 - 5th

Our group felt strong about these two from the beginning. Entires posted in this thread supported this. I was shocked to see Murray as the most popular choice. First time ever a QB priced over $18 has broken 15%. Williams and especially Daniels were surprising given the QB scoring in this contest. Obviously we could have rostered either of those instead of Goff. Personal opinion, but I think Goff and Stafford pass Williams and Daniels during the year.

RB - Kenneth Walker III - SEA/10 - $20 - 3rd
RB - Javonte Williams - DEN/14 - $14 - 6th
RB - Brian Robinson Jr. - WAS/14 - $13 - 14th
RB - Jerome Ford - CLE/10 - $11 - 1st
RB - Blake Corum - LAR/6 - $11 - 9th
RB - Jaylen Wright - MIA/6 - $7 - 18th
RB - Justice Hill - BAL/14 - $2 - 22nd

Mixed bag here. Nailing Ford was huge, I had my doubts. We debated on Walker and Achane and in the end they were basically the same. Robinson, Wright, and Hill were Shark Pool driven choices. If we do this again next year we need to vet the Shark Pool opinion a little more. I didn't think Wright would be that high, but he was near the top in the pool entires posted. Dowdle and Dobbins were huge misses. Both were discuss as I recall. Thought the Cook news would push more people off Dowdle. Dobbins may have been a bye week casualty. Overall I'm disappinted we didn't do better.


WR - Malik Nabers - NYG/11 - $19 - 3rd
WR - Rashee Rice - KC/6 - $13 - 1st
WR - Christian Watson - GB/10 - $13 - 22nd
WR - Rome Odunze - CHI/7 - $11 - 4th
WR - Khalil Shakir - BUF/12 - $10 - 2nd
WR - Romeo Doubs - GB/10 - $10 - 16th
WR - Jameson Williams - DET/5 - $10 - 8th

Crushed it here nailing 1st thru 4th. I've noticed rookie fever running rampant this year so Nabers and Odunze were gut calls that made sense. Sniffing out the right Buffalo WR was another good called. Surprised Watson wasn't higher. Jameson was on almost every Shark Pool posted lineup but not as popular with the general public. Given the budget and byes, Worthy and Wick were our only misses.


TE - Kyle Pitts - ATL/12 - $17
TE - George Kittle - SF/9 - $15
TE - Taysom Hill - NO/12 - $8

Perfection. Top three TEs picked. Our biggest call was moving off Kincaid to Pitts and realizing Kittle would be more popular with the general public.

PK - Joshua Karty - LAR/6 - $3 - 3rd
PK - Nick Folk - TEN/5 - $3 - 10th
PK - Cam Little - JAX/12 - $3 - 14th

Some bias to not being dumb snuck in here. Shocked Bates was first overall given Detriot coach hates FGs. From there we nailed the top $3 kickers. Refused to waste money on Audrey, Koo, etc. TOur kickers while not the most popular now will be more popular as the year progresses so we employed some forward thinking.


TD - Green Bay Packers - GB/10 - $3 - 1st
TD - Los Angeles Chargers - LAC/5 - $3 - 7th

Close. Atlanta would have been the right call. Pretty sure we pivoted to LAC because the heavy week 12 byes at TE.
 
QB Caleb Williams - $16
QB Matthew Stafford - $13

I know what everyone says about a third quarterback, but I thought fields was worth the risk🤷‍♂️

First time I’ve gone with this players roostered, but there were so many bargains I couldn’t help myself. I share a lot of common players, but obviously I’m happy including Likely.

I would never roster a $6 kicker, but I like this team.
Thanks for doing this. This is what our team should have come up with. Who would have thought ASB would be so high at that price.
 
Jaylen Wright being a scratch is not a good start for his owners.
Well at least he’ll go into next week healthy.
 
All in all, I think in the first few weeks, you're just hoping for no injuries to your players, and that your kickers still have jobs. If you get booted this early, you probably would be missing the cut more than once.

Did the 7 kicker guy get his entry in this year?

All hail 23-kicker guy :tebow:


-QG
Can we please get one of these entries to do an AMA one day? Would love to get their thoughts on their team.
 
Trying not to over-react, but Javonte Williams, Gus Edwards, and Evan Engram WAY underperformed what I was hoping to get out of them...
 
Looks like I'm likely toast in the very first week. Very bad output from all but 2 players. I'm 3.7 points below the cut line, with only 4 players left, and except for the two QBs, the other two have to score 8 or 10 before they add to my score.

I've never been eliminated this early. Effing bummer for sure ‼️
 
I've updated my contest ownership spreadsheet using the numbers that @Ignoratio Elenchi posted. It now has a decade of contest data, 2015-2024.

19.89 average roster size this year is the smallest since I've been tracking. 2023 (19.99 players) is the only other year below 20, and just 2 other years were below 21.

The average team roster construction is
QB: 2.5 for $40 (last year: 2.6 for $37)
RB: 5.2 for $74 (last year: 4.9 for $79)
WR: 5.6 for $88 (last year: 5.8 for $86)
TE: 2.4 for $29 (last year: 2.4 for $29)
PK: 2.1 for $10 (last year: 2.1 for $9)
DEF: 2.1 for $10 (last year: 2.1 for $10)
total: 19.9 for $250 (last year: 20.0 for $250)

The average team has an average of about 10.7% ownership for its players, which is the lowest since I've been tracking (previous low: 11.4% last year). Rashee Rice is the most owned player at 37.2%, which which is the lowest since I've been tracking for the season's most owned player (previous lows: 37.6% for Darren Waller last year and 40.0% for Christine Michael 2016).

All this and more is in the spreadsheet.
 
So this is looking like a short stay....certainly a sweat at the very least.

After 4pm: 107.80 + (McCaffrey - 5.10/8.00/8.60) + (J Williams(Det) - 5.10/8.00/11.10) + (Kittle/Parkinson - 5.10/8.00/14.80) + (Karty/Bates - 7.30)

Yowza! 2 QB's and both in single digits? That sux.

you'll be fine. Week 1 is always wonky
 
To the cut line GURUs: How much do you think the cut line will move after tonight's game?

There was someone here in the forum last year who used to nail it every time, but I can't remember who it was.

I'd really like to know if that's possible after this game ends.

To @QuizGuy66 What's your score right now?
 
Quick plug for 3 QBs - as a Jordan Love owner, I'm glad I also rostered Goff and Stafford this year. I think the 2 QB approach leaves you too shallow at such a critical position, but maybe that's just me. I'm fairly happy with my team, even though there were some serious duds, it looks like I'll survive at least another week and I like my chances to go further with 2 relatively healthy QBs remaining.
