I believe rostering Jennings in best ball is a good idea.

(Currently at 189 with RRice and Shakir to go )

I was so close to including him, but then Aiyuk's contract got worked out and I moved away from Jennings... oh well

I was a brilliant decision I made (for week 3 only, likely)

 

[TheWinz]

It would be nice to finally use Mahomes over Geno. Sitting around 120ish

 

[jdkapow]

You know who I miss in this thread from year's past? @jdkapow and his fun weekly recap

Thanks and sorry! Been too busy this time around. Plus all three of my TEs (plus Walker) are out this week so I wasn't feeling so jazzed about the whole thing. I may be able to return later.

 

[scottybo]

Apparenlty I was worried over nothing this week.

Best of luck to you. Hope you can squeak by.

 

[QuizGuy66]

So Rice has me solidly in the 150s so I should be good. Good luck to those swearing The Turk

[TheWinz]

Low 130's, but should be moving on

 

[joey]

Currently at 202 with Rice. I might squeak thru.

 

[Irelad]

I'm at 125.45 with Bijan (-0.9) and Rice (-6.1). They both already have a TD, so I think I'm safe. Oh, and Shakir.

You're safe

 

[BassNBrew]

If these injuries don't let up we'll be looking at low 100-110 cutlines in the heavy bye weeks.

 

[On Waldman Pond]

Who do you think is your single most important player this week?

Diontae Johnson! It helps immensely to have an actual NFL QB (even if he's a journeyman) throwing you the football!

I did the exact same thing, and like you, now wish I hadn't.

 

[Puppies]

In spite of having 5 players out injured, I'm sitting on 171.05 right now, at the end of the 3rd quarter of the KC - Atlanta game. Hopefully some of my injured guys can return next week. I think Njoku has a chance, and hopefully Walker III, and Kittle.

Can't help but feel fortunate right now, after wondering all week what my chances would be with 5 guys out, and another RB that ended up more of an RB3 than a RB1 (Javonte Williams).

Unlike you guys, I totally projected a 46.5 point return from Jennings in week 3. But I have access to the Super Platinum Mega Elite plan that gives me those kinds of hyper-detailed stats in advance. Heck, I have 2025 numbers I’m sitting on waiting to unleash next year!

Gotta pony up if you wanna stay in the race!

Signed,
Never made it past week 6 in this contest

 

[QuizGuy66]

So after Sunday Night:

168.15 + (Burrow - 28.95) + (Higgins - 7.10) + (Little - 10.00)

Funny contest this - the above total is with only $87 worth of rooster.

Yep. But I figured my other 6 WR were solid and wanted to use the money in order to get j wright and Bucky Irving. We’ll see if that was a mistake.

 

[SeniorVBDStudent]

Sheesh; these injuries are irritating. 138.9 + Shakir - ~5 + Cam Little - ~13.

 

[scottybo]

188.25 with Higgins (-13.8).

 

[TheWinz]

Looks like everyone posting is in good shape for week 3

 

[JaBoo]

Entering week 3, this team would still be alive:

QB - Sam Darnold - MIN/6 - $9
RB - JK Dobbins - LAC/5 - $8
RB - Braelon Allen - NYJ/12 - $5
WR - Andrei Iosivas - CIN/12 - $5
WR - Alec Pierce - IND/14 - $4
TE - Isaiah Likely - BAL/14 - $9
PK - Chris Boswell - PIT/9 - $4
TD - Minnesota Vikings - MIN/6 - $4

Total value: 48

If this team was actually rostered, we would need an "ask me anything" immediately.

@Army Eye

- I think you are scoring 2 pts for 2 pt conversions, but no pts are given in this contest for any players associated with 2 pt conversions
- I think you are scoring -1 pt for lost fumbles, but no negative pts are given to offensive players

I noticed these scoring discrepancies with many players, but my favorite was Deshaun Watson. You have him scored correctly, only because he lost 2 fumbles, but also had a 2pt conversion.

Lucky for you, Little starts counting after 2 points, not 8 points. But with 2 games tonight and only 23 pts from the cut line, I'd Sooner be at Stanford.

23 pts is an enternity from the cut line.

 

[Saint]

Sitting at 126.35 with Shakir (-7) and Iosivas (-5).... Hopefully should be good. Really need my players to start coming back from injury... Looking at you AJB, KWIII, and Gano.... Feeling like Week 5 will be my tolling bell without a kicker.

Not with 2 games on Monday Night. Also, Jayden Daniels is the 2nd most common QB, a couple RB's over 1K, 2 WR's in the top 9, and the 5th most common TE on a down week for TE's. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the line moves 20.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Comfortably over the cut line with Brian Thomas Jr, Brian Robinson, Chase Brown, Bills D, and Khalil Shakir yet to play

Once again my receivers are carrying me, though Singletary & chipped in. Last week I had negative score from my TE duo, but as of now both Fergie & Otton are in my box score. KWIII can't come back quickly enough.

I dropped to 1361, so hopefully I get a boost tonight.

TOTAL	164.75
CUT LINE	100.55

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Not with 2 games on Monday Night.

64 feels fairly safe (with 5 YTP)

[nittanylion]

Last week, it was DeVonta Smith saving my bacon on MNF; this week that task falls to Dalton Kincaid. He's got a little more margin to work with, 122.45/100.55, and only chasing 5.3, but with Jags/Bills and 'skins/Bengals going tonight, (not to mention Kincaid's substandard production, and TE's down across the board, especially this week), I fear there's still a minefield to cross.

Good luck to all!

 

[TheWinz]

In week 11 of the 2018 contest, I had a cushion of 33.3 points heading into the late game between KC and LAR. I was SURE I was advancing to week 12, and went to party with my brother. I woke up the next morning, and to my surprise, I was down by 10 points. Yes, the line moved 43.25 points in a single game!

 

[a_troll00]

I thought I'd be done for sure this week with all the key injuries. This turned out to be my best week yet.

186.25 with a chance for even more tonight.

Deep rosters rock.

Yes. The cut line moved from 134.6 to 177.85 in a single game on Monday Night. Here is a cut & paste of my post before the game...

Cut line currently sits at 134.6. Here are all the Monday night players:
QB - Mahomes (859 - 54%), Goff (306 - 19%)
RB - Gurley (368 - 23%), Kelly (99 - 6%), Hunt (87 - 5%), Ware (79 - 5%), Brown (11 - 1%)
WR - Hill (519 - 32%), Kupp (178 - 11% - IR), Cooks (105 - 7%), Woods (85 - 5%), Watkins (40 - 3%)
TE - Kelce (176 - 11%), Higbee (17 - 1%), Everett (14 - 1%)
K - Butker (365 - 23%), Zuerlein (122 - 8%)
D - LAR (185 - 12%), KC (86 - 5%)

It's anyone's guess as to how high the cut will end up being, so I will toss out a number - 155 max. I am done at 167.9. Good luck to all the thread regulars.

Yes it is. I had 110 points after the noon games with one player from each position.

Yeah, this is my first season going with a large roster, and for example picking up 22.6 from Tre Tucker this week feels like cheating.

152-167-217 to start the contest off. Weeks 5 and 6 will be my big tests as I frontload the majority of my bye $$$.

Yes, it sucks to sweat alot, but if you can squeak by every week, your team would be killer for the finals.
