Hypothetical for my FFPC brothers. Standard.
Two sides of the coin.
Side 1: Justin Jefferson.
Side 2: Derrick Henry, Ekeler, Stefan Diggs, and Michael Pittman

If you have Jefferson but can't compete, would you trade Jefferson for this?

No. I guess you hoping that depth makes you a contender and maybe it does but I just can't go all in on deals like this and if I ever would it would closer to the deadline when my risk is mitigaged, because a deal like this you'd need to feel very confident this move gets you over the top right now.

If you had the other guys and were maybe the 4th or 5th best team and can compete for the next year, two at most, would you deal them for Jefferson?

I'd probably start trying to see what each piece can get me. Can that group of players get me like 4 #1's with a least a few having early potential? If so I'm inclined to go that route. Now if my only option on a team with those 4 players looking like it's only the 4th or 5th best team in the league and I got two options, get JJ or just ride those players till their fantasy expiration then I'd rather have JJ.

I'm not a fan of the FFPC roster minimums (as in must have one QB, 2RBs.........)from the cut date to the start of the season.
It really, really inhibits trade opportunities.
Once the cuts happens you should be able to do anything you want with your roster between now and week 1.

I have an offer for my QB I want to take but can't, because I wouldn't have a QB on my roster, which isn't allowed. Very silly to not allow that after cuts.

I agree it seems silly, but can you just shoot a 4th or 5th to someone for their backup scrub QB?

Nobody has ANY backup scrubs after cuts, that's the problem with the current rule.

I don't get this. If you can't compete why would you be trading for a bunch of old guys?

I can't see any scenario where I would trade JJ for this package.

I suppose the idea would be that adding Henry, Ekeler, and Pittman (say diggs and JJ are about equal for the year) that you can now compete

Agreed. If I can flip those pieces for 1sts and start a rebuild, I’m down. Or immediately compete for a championship but that requires some honest evaluation of where my team ranks in the league. Otherwise I just hold Jefferson.

In other words, if I can’t get like 4 1sts or compete, I think I can launch a better rebuild by hanging on to JJ for another year or two while losing and earning early picks, and then deal him down the road for win now pieces or better rebuild assets if it still makes sense to do so.

I'm not a fan of the FFPC roster minimums (as in must have one QB, 2RBs.........)from the cut date to the start of the season.
It really, really inhibits trade opportunities.
Once the cuts happens you should be able to do anything you want with your roster between now and week 1.

I have an offer for my QB I want to take but can't, because I wouldn't have a QB on my roster, which isn't allowed. Very silly to not allow that after cuts.

I agree it seems silly, but can you just shoot a 4th or 5th to someone for their backup scrub QB?

Nobody has ANY backup scrubs after cuts, that's the problem with the current rule.

I am only in four 1QB FFPC dynasty leagues anymore. The rest are all SuperFlex or TriFlex. But out of 44 opponents across those four leagues, 26 of them are carrying a second QB, and a couple have three. Even though I rarely carry a second QB through cuts myself. But this nuance makes me wonder if it does make more sense once in a while for just this flexibility reason. But have you confirmed 100% there are no back ups to buy? Or is the thing that they just aren't scrubs so it wouldn't be cheap?

 

[barackdhouse]

There was an interesting situation in one of our 1QB leagues last offseason where dude's one QB rostered was Taysom Hill so his roster was legal but then he got repositioned to TE and all the sudden dude's roster wasn't legal. But nobody reported it and nobody from FFPC enforced it. Not sure what the rules actually say there but once the rookie draft hit he picked up a real one and life went on.

There's no scrubs to be had cheap.
Also, on one team (huge rebuild) I only have 2 RBs rostered. I can't trade one away unless I get one back. I don't want to give ANY value for some crappy vet RB that someone may have that is 100% not going to be part of my roster moving forward.

The rule of having to roster a certain number of players at a position is a great rule, it just doesn't make any sense to have that rule between cuts and week 1.

I can see that argument but it's probably a zillion times easier for FFPC to commission hundreds of these leagues this way than todeal with all the shenanigans that might come with people hoarding and complaining about hoarding. Easy to manage if it's just us in one of our personal leagues. IDK. Just rambling thoughts here.

Hoarding?? Hoarding seems silly when you just have to cut back down to 20 before the season starts.
Hoarding or shenanigans won't be a problem.
If anything, it would help the FFPC because they won't have to police any roster issues between April and september

I tend to agree.
Reason I brought this up was to just hear thoughts about the philosophy, and also the guy with Ekeler++ thought it was an exorbitant amount to pay for Jefferson.

Herbert.
One guy has Kyler Murray, one guy has Geno.
Only 19 QBs are rostered.
Decent players get cut. None of the QBs rostered are scrubs that can be had for a 4th, and even if there were, why should I have to burn a 4th just to be able to make a trade?

How you guys like the FFPC best ball leagues? I was thinking of trying one out.
So reading the rules, there's no playoffs, just straight total points?
So if you do a rebuild and suck, you guarantee yourself the 1st pick (unless someone sucks more I guess)?

I like the best ball dynos, mostly because I suck at picking starting lineups. It's true that teams can tank by trading away all their good players. I'm ok with that.

Me too. I just wanna make sure of the rules for future picks when I trade for them

I did a best ball dynasty in 2019 and won it my first year so of course I was like "this is easy!" and joined more, none of which I've won since.

You are correct about all those points above. It's pretty easy to tank. However, if you aren't committed to the tank starting with week 1, then you're not likely getting the 1.01, because there's always one team that starts off the season in full-tank mode. The fun part of tanking is being able to trade for injured players -- they help you tank, and you don't have to worry about having healthy players for the consolation bracket like in head-to-head leagues. (Last year was the first time I tanked in a best ball league, and I traded Chubb for Dobbins, which was dumb, but then traded Dobbins in a package for Ken Walker a few days before Dobbins had his cleanup surgery, then traded Walker straight up for JT when Taylor was injured, and then traded Gibson in a package for a still-injured Dobbins a few weeks later. Those were fun deals.

 

[NE_REVIVAL]

Couldn't help myself, jumped into a FFPC $100 startup

Drew the 1.11 and took Olave, was offered Bijan\ 4.10 for Olave\2.2 and countered Bijan\3.3 which was accepted.

Bijan Robinson & 3.3
for
Chris Olave and 2.2 (ARSB or T Higgins)

Smart play was probably Olave and Higgens\ARSB, but the fun play was Bijan; I don't figure to get him in any of my dynos so yolo. Really hoping 1 of 3 players is there for me at 3.3 and if so I will be very happy with the deal. We shall see.

Update - Got 1 of the players I was hoping for at 3.3 (Metcalf)

Give
Olave and ARSB

Get
Bijan and Metcalf

Is this the old Football guys tournament? I wanted to join and seen there was only one spot left at like 11:45 am this morning, but then seen the draft was at 4 pm and knew I would be home to do it. How did it go if you don't mind me asking?

Yes it's still FPC but not FBG anymore. Yeah we bumped it to 4pm and it went off great. A couple people timed out and autopicked but whatever. I have a thing for rookie RBs in the early offseason and need to stop drafting for awhile now. But it went like this, from the 9 spot:

Goff, Ridder
Stevenson, R White, Herbert, Gibson, Abanikanda, Chase Brown
AJ Brown, Amon-Ra, JSN, Dotson, Shaheed, Downs, Hodgins
Pitts, Dulcich, Ferguson
K&D

I like the idea of drafting to a scenario. By taking Pitts in the 3rd, I've made my bed. If he is successful and the pick is a hit, it will be because of Ridder. Same with Amon-Ra/Goff.

I don't love it so congrats on your win. Seriously, the last 3 years the teams I hated the most have won me the money. It is so weird or it means I am really bad and should draft against myself.

I never do an of these draft until May because then I would have like 30 teams, but I was going to make an exception to play with some fellow FBG. I have only had one league ever with another FBG that I know of and we both stunk in that league.

I will try to remember to post my first one in here after I do it. Good luck, I hope you win your league and take second overall to me! Lol

We're trying to get a live FPC Easter draft going. Need 6 more. https://myffpc.com/FantasyProsChampionship.aspx?y=2

Is this the old Football guys tournament? I wanted to join and seen there was only one spot left at like 11:45 am this morning, but then seen the draft was at 4 pm and knew I would be home to do it. How did it go if you don't mind me asking?

Yes it's still FPC but not FBG anymore. Yeah we bumped it to 4pm and it went off great. A couple people timed out and autopicked but whatever. I have a thing for rookie RBs in the early offseason and need to stop drafting for awhile now. But it went like this, from the 9 spot:

it. Good luck, I hope you win your league and take second overall to me! Lol

Me too! I can live with that!

[phandango]

I'm in a $500 FFPC superflex best ball dynasty. On Friday, I saw that someone had bought the last open team in the league. I immediately made an offer to him. He countered with an absolutely awful offer. We had some back and forth over the weekend, but it was clear he wasn't interested in making a deal that I considered fair.

Last night, I went to look at that league's rosters, and the team name was changed back to the generic name that FFPC uses when a team is for sale ("LJax, AJones/Akers ..."). Sure enough, the team is back on the "Dynasty Teams for Sale" page, listed for $1. My guess is the guy took on the team for cheap, then, when no one accepted any of his crappy offers, he bailed.

ok this thing is done now. I'm in two other $100 startups as well, both FFPC, one Triflex one SuperFlex. It's likely I'll never buy another 1QB team again.

I'm just gonna link the board but here is my completed team:

Love, Ridder
Rachaad, Herbert, Abanikanda, Kendre, Roschon, Ford, TDP
Tyreek, Diggs, Amon-Ra, Olave, Deebo, Trey Palmer, Shaheed
Pitts, Irv, Everett

two 1sts still. The other 1st is from a team that looks elite to me everywhere except WR. This being Triflex you are required to start 3 WRs (and can start as many as 6). So IMHO the other team looks weak at WR in late April but I imagine that will change. I should qualify that and say that they don't even look average at WR so I'd call it a really big weakness actually. But who knows, my weakness is clearly QB and as I've said a gazillion times I like to try to exploit how overpriced QBs are in this format. I like both Love and Ridder to take big steps this year but that's definitely the weak link (by design) for me.

Here is the board:

The second TriFlex startup I'm doing right now is also nearly done:

Draft Board

fantasy sports league manager

myffpc.com

Geno, Ridder, Mac
Gibbs, Rachaad, Hull
Metcalf, Watson, Burks, Dotson, Doubs
Pitts, Gesicki, Ferguson

I have five 2024 1sts!! Never accumulated that many in a startup before. And I think I can compete in year 1 though not likely enough to get over the top unless I parlay one or two of those 1sts into something right now (in 2023 anyway).

The third startup is regular SuperFlex and has been strange. Very little trading for me but:

Mahomes, Ridder, Purdy
CMC, Barkley, Henry, Gibson
Diggs, Dotson, Aiyuk, Doubs, J Palmer, C Tillman
Goedert, McBride, Ferguson

 

[barackdhouse]

ok so I've shown my hand(s) now let's do a $250 sharkpool TriFlex ---they're up and registering now and don't begin until after the NFL draft...who is in?

 

[NE_REVIVAL]

My least favorite dyno team right now is my Tri Flex. I know SF is all the rage and it may be blaspheme but as Austin would say it's not my bag baby. GL!

I understand - what if we ran our own league and commissioned it so there was no rake? I know that has nothing to do with your preference against SF/TF but just throwing that out there for others as well.

I’d be game for our own league with league safe but would prefer a $100 buy in as I don’t love putting $250 on the line for fairy tale football (the sharkpool FFPC league is my lone exception). I’d do triflex or superflex format.

 

[Da Franchise]

Any of you guys interested in a $1250 when those get rolling? Or maybe a $2500 which is already available?

 

[Da Franchise]

New startups are posted. I joined 1 QB $1250 #37, it’d be cool to see some of you in there.

I will probably do one more this year. Either a Superflex or Triflex.

Like I said 2 posts up, I’m game for a $100 buy in superflex or triflex. I’m sure @barackdhouse is game too. 3 down, 9 more to go?

Thanks BD, but not ur guy for this one and rake has never been a big issue for me. GL

I’d love to play a league with you guys but $500 is the lowest I can go. Got rid of all my smaller leagues and decluttered before last season. It’s too good, can’t go back haha.

 

[phandango]

It always annoyed me that the FFPC "My Teams" page would show which of my dynasty teams had incoming trade offers, but I would have to go to my individual team page to see whether I had outgoing offers to other teams that they had yet to respond to. Looks like FFPC has upgraded the "My Teams" page to show both kinds of offers now, outgoing and incoming.

 

[jabarony]

Any of you guys interested in a $1250 when those get rolling? Or maybe a $2500 which is already available?

Too much. I'd rather botch 5 or 10 teams than 1.

 

[ghostguy123]

The $5000 dyno has one open spot. I will NOT be partaking, lol.
5 grand for a dyno league just SEEMS crazy to me.
It's probably not crazy, but I would just feel too weird in a league with a buy in so high.

Crazy thought is that multiple NFL teams were purchased for less then $5k.

I mean the Bears were bought for the same as the $100 dynasty startups, lol.

 

[menobrown]

Am I wrong in thinking divisions are normally changed by this time?

 

[ghostguy123]

Am I wrong in thinking divisions are normally changed by this time?

I believe I recall them saying after our rookie drafts are over.
I think they should reorganize as soon as the fantasy season is over.

 

[barackdhouse]

Am I wrong in thinking divisions are normally changed by this time?

I never keep these things straight but I did hear it asked and answered a couple months that they're doing it after our rookie draft(s). I actually think that is best because then there is 0% chance of influencing the draft or trading leading up to it.

If I were a millionaire, which I'm not (unlike most FBGs ) I might join a league like that. But for me, our SharkPool FFPC $250 buy in is the max I would spend on a league in this silly, random hobby.
Like I said up thread, I’d be game for a SharkPool FFPC SuperFlex $100 buy in if we can get the numbers, but I think I’ll do the full court press on that after the FFPC rookie drafts are over.
