Dynasty grabs currently on waivers (1 Viewer)

[fredsavage]

Hurd maybe is on the WW, but any dynasty savvy owner would have snatched him up

Butler... no reason he should be on the WW. He was an early IR move

Lock... again shouldnt be on the WW

Not trying to be a jerk, but JJAW, Harris, Butler were all 2nd round rookie picks. Hurd and Lock were 3rd rounders in many cases, 2nd in some. None of them should be on WWs. 

Not every league is 30 man rosters with IR slots. In a 1qb league Lock could easily have been cut or undrafted. Butler and Hurd were both fringe 3rd rounders in many drafts including mine, then they went on IR. These guys get dropped in dynasty all the time. But I agree with you they should be owned.

I dont doubt it happens. I just think it's foolish dynasty ownership. But that's why we are all here and those fools are dropping Isabella, JJAW and rookie QBs with promise after a few weeks

Just picked up Hockenson and Gostkowski.

Gostkowski or Gronkowski? I think Gronk comes back next year. Gost is just a kicker.

 

[RushHour]

Just picked up Hockenson and Gostkowski.

I don’t think much of Hockenson but he was dropped?!

Im assuming redraft. Not very smart if someone dropped Hockenson in dynasty

 

[brewer]

Why would someone pick up Hockenson in redraft?

 

[JohnnyU]

Why would someone pick up Hockenson in redraft?

They wouldn't, so this must have been dynasty and a very dumb move to drop Hockenson in a dynasty league.  If it is a redraft, then I agree, why would anyone pick him up.

This thread was helpful... I managed to grab a few "fliers" .... very limited options on the wire....  12 Team Dyno 25 man roster + Dev & IR slots (4 each)...  so deep rosters. 

Kaden Smith NYG TE ($1 on BB Waivers)

Jeremy Sprinkle Wash TE ($1 on BB WW)

.....And I picked up Tyler Higbee ($3 on BB WW) more to prevent other owner from claiming...  it is the Playoffs after all!  I have Waller, Olsen & Cook at TE.

Was just coming in to mention him.

How do these things happen in dynasty? Maybe I'm spoiled as my leagues have deep benches but I can't believe guys get drafted in the first and second round of rookie drafts are getting dropped during their rookie seasons.

There are some leagues that are hybrid dynasty/redraft, with enough keepers to make the dynasty side relevant but with roster crunches to make dropping a Hockensen or a JJAW a real decision.  I know this thread is titled "Dynasty," but keeper league players like myself still use dynasty resources.

Javon Wims - I have no idea why this guy doesn't play over Miller and Gabriel (at least Gabriel) because he looks fantastic whenever he's on the field and the Bears passing game is a joke. No indication the Bears will get smarter with him, but he's a real talent and those are the best guys to stash and see what happens. 

Mo Alie-Cox - Ebron and Doyle are FAs next year so he might have more opportunity. I used to be higher on him, but the Colts haven't seemed too interested in developing him as a pass-catcher so my enthusiasm has cooled. Possibly worth the last spot on your bench though to see what happens. 

Wims is definitely worth a stash. Miller is really good but Gabriel simply isn't. Gabriel could be a cap casualty in the offseason. 

MAC is a hold for me. Ebron is done for after a freaky breakout season. Doyle could get a big offer from someone, for sure, but Mo's there regardless. He's a terrific blocker and has obvious athleticism to thrive in offense.

 

[Jacksonke1]

Hockenson actually looks pretty good out there to me. Sure he went AWOL in the box score after week one, but from what I see he blocks well/gives good effort, gets involved, gets open.......sporadic targets, play calling and QB tunnel vision aren't his fault. 

I'd love to have him rostered in dynasty/keeper.

 

[smbkrypt24]

Some pick ups that I targeted for this offseason.  Not sure if all will be worth much.  1 QB dynasty league. 12 team. 20 roster spots.

A. Luck

Roethlisberger

McKinnon

L. Miller

Ebron

C. Edmonds

D. Jackson

 

[ConnSKINS26]

Thats my guess right there. Everyone knew he wasn't a MUST DRAFT guy for this year. He's more of a guy late late this year or a next year guy. No need to waste a pick on a guy who won't do anything in the first few months of the season. I played 4 yrs of a dynasty league before it folded. My draft choices were mostly guys I knew could either contribute right away or a handcuff to someone known for an injury history. Guy like JJAW I would've taken either Late in the draft or had him Taxi Squad. 

This isn't how most dynasty leagues work, it's an atypical experience that you and your friend have both had.

Keeper, actually and he already has his keeper. We keep one per position. But he's trade worthy in any case.

 

[TartanLion]

I’ve got Steven Sims rostered in my dynasty league. Just caught my eye on a big play earlier in the season - looked like he had great burst and quick feet and with Redskins possibly getting a new coaching team and a new QB starting ( and possibly another one after that if Haskins fails ) maybe he gets more of a chance going forward. 
 

Felton Davis, Kansas WR. Heard some good things about him and he’s 6’3. Been on IR all season

 

[lod001]

Jesper Horsted if you need a backup TE. Hell, he could even become a top end TE in a short time. No one else on the roster at TE is worth a crap.

Davis is a good one and one I have added in some deeper ones. Beast in college but then got hurt late in the season, I personally think he coulda been a 4th round or so pick if he didn’t get hurt. No idea if its right or not but thought chiefs can get out of sammys contract if they want to and don’t think Robinson is signed long term so potential for a spot to open up.

 

[Boone22]

Drew Sample.  You can stash him on IR and Eifert is a FA next year.

Maybe, but he’s got a very small sample size and who knows who his QB will be.

I’m done with Eifert, unless NE or NO signs him I’m sending him away in a package deal.

[Boone22]

My reasons for stashing Drew Sample...

1) Have to think Cincy drafts a QB at 1.01 in the NFL draft

2) Eifert is a FA and is almost certainly gone

3) Sample was a 2nd round pick last year. I doubt they spend another high draft pick on a TE

4) He’s essentially free. You can pick him up off waivers and stash him on IR (if you have IR) to see how things shake out 

5) His NFL draft profile lists Jack Doyle as a comparison

6) His player profiler comp is Cameron Brate

Lots of good info here.

I am in a 12 team, 50 man roster league where we start 22 players (11 offense, 11 defense) so our waiver wires are thin and you need to do a lot of deep dives to find promising talent.

Here are a few players I am currently looking at stashing for the offseason (Already highly considering Emmanuel Butler).

I'd like to hear other's opinions

Easton Stick - QB LAC (Taylor is not a long term answer and Rivers may be gone)

Kerrith Whyte RB PIT (possible backup to an injury prone Conner, could he beat out Snell?)

Gary Jennings WR MIA (4th rd pick by SEA, could he get an opportunity in a new home?)

Robert Tonyan (Sternberger could be a threat, but he has been getting opportunity the last 2 years with Rodgers)

Devine Ozigbo RB JAX (originally signed as FA by NO, could he carve out a role in the Jags backfield or beat out Armstead for a backup role)

Reggie White, Jr WR NYG (lots of preseason hype for him, was on Giants practice squad all year and with injuries at WR they never promoted him, so I'm not sure what that says about their opinion of him).

Players that I am now considering because of this thread (thanks for the info on them)

Khari Blasingame RB TEN 

Felton Davis WR KC

Jesper Horsted TE CHI

Players worth monitoring

Drew Sample TE CIN

Javon Wims WR CHI

Scott Miller WR TB

John Ursua WR SEA

Kaden Smith TE NYG

Jeremy Sprinkle TE WAS

The way I would think about this (very interesting question) is where are there obvious starting opportunities coming up in high octane offenses, and are there young talented players on the team at that position who could potentially explode?

My top five:

1) KC's starting RB, which is potentially highly productive. Shady is past it and I don't think he'll be back and Damien Williams is on a nice roll but I don't know if he's the future. That means Darryl Williams, who I thought looked good at times this year, is the obvious stash.

2) Green Bay's #2 WR is also potentially highly productive. They've been looking for a clear #2 after Adams and they one hasn't quite emerged... yet. Allison hasn't worked out, Kumerow never quite made it, but Lazard has looked pretty good the last few weeks. I would say he is the obvious stash candidate.

3) 49ers WRs are another high production position. Samuel has emerged as a star while Sanders has looked great but he is old and his contract is up this year. I think Jalen Hurd is an intriguing stash here.

4) Someone needs to be the #2 WR in New Orleans. I know Thomas gets all the catches, but a halfway decent #2 WR could also be super productive. That makes Tre'Quan Smith the guy to stash. He has speed, now he just needs to be a more complete receiver.

5) Likewise, there is an opportunity to be #2 WR in Indy, presuming TY Hilton comes back strong. Pascal looks like the guy to have there.

 

[JohnnyU]

Travis Homer is someone to seriously consider.  I'm not exactly feeling warm and fuzzy about Seattle's RBs.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Those are decent stashes but feel most will likely get back-seated to premium rookies.

I like this line of thinking.

 

[JohnnyU]

One thing is obvious to everyone in dynasty and devy leagues.  You have to have room for your picks and you can only throw so many darts.  Having said that, if you do have room for Homer that's a good thing.  If you don't then I understand, even if he does something going forward.  It's one thing we all live with as dynasty/devy owners.  You can't have everyone and if you miss out on a future stud, so be it.

TreQuan has the tools but he's damn low in the pecking order for targets. Thomas, Kamara, and Cook are all ahead of him at the buffet line.

 

[Dr. Octopus]

are all of these guys on your ww? I'd expect them to be owned in >80% of dynasty leagues if not more

None are available in my five leagues.

Not sure I’d put Williams over Thompson at this point. Thompson may be a bit more of an unknown, but seems much more explosive.
