Probably after some of the more established QBs, and also after some of the top WR and RB. It's hard to say without seeing your scoring, or knowing keeper rules.
You may be right but I recall that was also said about Waller last year and I bought into it for the most part. I know last year I drafted Waller once but for the most part considered me not being high enough on him one of my biggest fails of the year.
I try to play the averages rather than guessing which ones beat father time. The market doesn't always come to my desired price and I ride them out, but if I get a fair offer I'd rather jump off from a late 20something too early than get left holding the bag. Cause the idea is I swap them out for someone a half decade plus younger and already have a replacement teed up. Given the current TE landscape I get that may not be reality for many Waller owners though.
I have 6 players in Tier1, Trevor Lawrence isn't one of them. Tier2 has 19 players (22 if it's TE premium) in it, Trevor Lawrence is part of that tier.steeler6 said:
Who are your six Tier 1 guys? I’m assuming Mahomes, Kyler, Allen, Watson(assuming we are talking about 2QB)
How much would you move that up if you draft a draft slot (ie instead of single picks, we draft the group of picks)
Mahomes, Watson
Not sure what you mean? What is a "group of picks"? Do you mean if I draft the #1 slot so I get 1.01, 2.01, 3.01, 4.01? I've never seen that or done that I don't know how to value the entire group.
Hard to say without the rest of your league specs. If PPR, start 2x RB, 3x WR, 1x Flex - top 10ish, for me.steeler6 said:
It's a pass, but I don't think it's a horrible offer. I think the top WR at 1.5 will likely be at least on par with Brown by sometime in 2022. This WR class is loaded. Doesn't mean I'm considering moving Brown though.
I know Brandin Cooks had a good year this year but with Watson unhappy and likely moving on this seems like a stretch to move him all the way into a Tier 1 for a dynasty start up
I'd have to get 2 of the first 3 or 4 1st round rookie picks to even think about moving AJB.
Then he told me he could get Barkley w/the 1.05 & 1.12. I told him to go do it. I would
I know people may think I'm nuts, but I'm willing to bet that Akers will be considered in that top tier this time next year. If I was drafting a dynasty team today he would be a huge target for me.
I don't think you're nuts at all. I'd view him as Tier1 as well if it wasn't for the production difference in receiving between those top4 of mine and Akers. Once he proves that, it's RB1 overall ceiling.
The competition for that upper tier is stiff is my only hesitation. I'm of the opinion that in my almost 10 years playing dynasty that we have reached a high point for quality top tier RB's. Which makes sense when you consider we've had two all time RB classes 2 out of the last 4 drafts. But with that 2017 class hitting 26-27 years old this time next season, basically the fantasy equivalent of middle aged, I would anticipate a few of this last years rookie class moving up the totem pole.
Man, this guy must really want AJB from me. He said we "have to get a deal done" lol no we don't. I asked him if there was any way he would put Diggs in a deal if I am moving AJB & he sent this...His Diggs, 1.12, Zach Moss, 4.03 & 4.04 for my AJB, Tua & 1.09. That's not an offer I want either. Sure, I have Lamar @ QB, but I want to move him & my only other QB is Cousins. (Start 1)
Couple things:
But you probably got Claypool with a second rounder!
I don't have time to look this up so maybe this will keep me to it, but how many of those are high profile, top talent, over 3k yards from college, 21 year old rookies?
I mean I'm not sure how many fit that exact criteria, and if we add guys with 3-letter names first names that have a gun model spelled in the beginning of their last name the list likely gets even shorter
. But we're talking 1st, 2nd, 3rd round NFL picks here. Not just random Salvon Ahmeds and the like.
The thing I like is that he was thrown into the starting role off the bat and got hurt. It took a while for him to recover and to pick up the offense (all the rookies were in this same situation due to COVID). Once he got his chance, he ran with it and really proved himself.I mean I'm not sure how many fit that exact criteria, and if we add guys with 3-letter names first names that have a gun model spelled in the beginning of their last name the list likely gets even shorter
And let's not pretend that Akers' college production was a GOOD thing. His lousy college efficiency was the biggest knock on him coming into the league.
I have no problem liking Akers but he is so far away from the profile of anything I would consider a tier 1 dynasty player right now, even if he does eventually become one.
I seem to be remembering Akers as having excellent efficiency and a lousy oline. I could be mistaken. But I do know for sure Akers made a lot of nothing more times then he ran through open lanes.I mean I'm not sure how many fit that exact criteria, and if we add guys with 3-letter names first names that have a gun model spelled in the beginning of their last name the list likely gets even shorter

People like to use the FSU excuse but the truth is while FSU was awful by FSU standards, they weren't awful by college football standards. Plenty of prospects come from worse teams with worse O-lines. Keshawn Vaughn, for instance, had nearly identical college stats to Akers while playing for Vandy against SEC competition.
KeepTradeCut says it's fair (assuming you enter Mid 1st as the 1.08 and Early 3rd as the 3.03, as you can't specify the 1.08 or 3.03 exact pick).
I agree we can't put him in Tier 1 yet. I'm just saying that next year at this time I think it will be a different story.
Up earlier, @Biabreakable defined the Tier 1 RB's as: CMC, Cook, Chubb, Kamara, Barkley (for those with high risk tolerance).
Thanks, missed the earlier definition.
Don't listen to the haters?
He's just 1 of those guys that either really loves X player or overvalue. Oh wellwlwiles said:
