I asked for a launch date at 12 PM EST today with the 2-hr timer. I will keep you all informed.
FFPC confirmed they will have the league up between 10-11 PM EST tonight. I believe the pause is from 2am - 8am… so once you see your draft spot, be aware of the timer.
Draft should be starting soon.
Looks like we’re missing 1 team somehow. Any clue on who, @Saint ?
Yup. I’ve been chatting with FFPC and waiting for them to add the owner and withdraw funds.
isn't there an invite friends link on the My Teams home page? You guys could send me the link no?

I have not received an invite or link or anything
They are actually handling that behind the scenes. No link or anything. I expect we should be up today.

It's live now and the clock is running @NE_REVIVAL is up
 
Just a side note that I got the invite link around 1130 Pacific time last night from a league member, not FFPC. We could have started this earlier but c'est la vie. Good to know for next time.

Okay. Didn't realize that as they had me give all of the emails to the support team. Maybe we'll start an annual tradition with the FFPC FBG BB Tourney.

I sent the invite when I noticed the issue and just an FYI in the future I think every league except maybe the Main Event you should see an invite link.
 
Certainly interesting being on the end. I didn’t want to have to take McCarthy in round 4 as I thought about double tapping on AJ Brown and London, but with superflex and not having my 1st QB, I felt I would be at a huge disadvantage if I waited for another 22 picks to pick my first, especially since 13 QBs were already picked.
 
This is my first ever SF draft so going to find out if passing on a QB at 2 was a bad move.
This is my first SF Best Ball, so I’ll find out if taking TWO QBs in my first 3 picks was a mistake or not.
I am picking from the 11 slot, which I like a lot cuz I can go bang, bang with my picks and only have 1 team (Saint) to worry about sniping a player from under me.

I'm wishing I'd done what you did and take QBs with my 2nd and 3rd round picks.
I mostly took Chase at 1.02 because of the 8(so far) leagues I'm in,this is the only one he was an option for me .

I was planning Prescott at the turn, but joey sharked him right before me... so I ended with McCarthy....

I wouldn't sweat the McCarthy pick. I think he is great value this year and I would've certainly grabbed him a few picks later if you hadn't.

agreed. You picked Jefferson already so if Jefferson is going to win this thing for you then it would seem his QB would be a guy to have. but trust me I know, it is hard to pass up some of the stud WRs/RBs on the board in those spots.

I had a good internal debate for a few minutes on Dak or Purdy, did not think I'd have that decision as I thought it was foregone conclusion the team picking in front of me would not pass Dak with no QB and Lamb.

Saint and Joey just saved me from another debate where I was having a hard time passing on the two Seattle's for a QB and wondering what my odds were of sure starter making it back to me but that decision got made for me.
 
So I would be intersted in some dialogue on why you guys made the picks where you did. I am always interested in learning the strategy. So I'll start:

From the 12 seed:
  • 1/2 spot: Plan was to snag the best RB and WR. I figured the top QBs would be gone. With the SF spot, I felt that QBs would go fast, but I didn't want to overextend, so I planned on taking a QB at 3/4 turn. Was hoping Gibbs would fall, but was happy to snag Ashton Jeanty at the 12 spot. I felt he is going to have a massive workload and with Geno Smith, they got an upgrade at QB, so hoping that open's up the running lanes. For the 2 spot, I was planning on BPA of WR/TE/QB. I debated Mahomes, but felt I could get someone decent with upside coming back. Also debated McBride for the TE premium of FFPC. At the end I felt, like Jefferson had the better spot with a low floor and high ceiling. I thought the value at WR would be much thinner coming back around and I wsa hoping Kittle would come back on the turn.
  • 3/4 spot: Had to grab a QB here for me after going Jeanty/Jefferson. Was hoping for Dak, but joey sniped him right in front. Looking at available QBs, debated on Maye and a few others, but felt like a slight reach for McCarthy made sense to stack him with JJ. With the 4 spot, I was excited to snag AJ Brown as I thought he would have been gone by then. So with JJ/AJB at WR I felt like I have solid target hogs for the WR and should be contending. Looked at the RBs but I felt like they were deep and I would have a decent pick at the 5/6. Also debated double tapping QB with Maye, but felt like the value was higher with AJB.
  • 5/6 spot: Well, I thought QBs would have been still there, but they really dried up. Probably should have double tapped at 3/4, but I took Geno Smith as best value and a slight stack with Jeanty. Didn't feel enraptured by the pick but it is what it is. From the 6 spot I debated on whether or not to go RB/WR/TE. Looking at the positions, I really wanted to pull the trigger on JSN, but I also felt the next tier of RB would be dried up by the time it came back to me. So I ended up debating on RBs and I felt KWIII was probably the last in the tier after Joey grabbed Cook.
  • 7/8 spot: Well credit to @NE_REVIVAL for having the same strategy of double tapping TE at the turn. When I grabbed Geno and KW, I was hoping Hockenson would come back, but nice move by him to lock them up. I like both Njoku and Engram in TE premium best ball and I doubted they would come back. So easy call here. I debated Andrews but I can’t see Baltimore keeping Likely off the field.
  • 9/10 spot: With only two RBs, I knew I needed to draft a RB here and then best WR available. Was hoping to get Pollard or BRob, but with both of those gone, I opted for Jaylen Warren. Not a big fan, but decent for the bye week. From a WR side, I had several in mind and they were all available. Looking at Addison, I could complete the QB+WR/WR stack with Minnesota which will hopefully be high scoring in the KOC offense. Felt good about that, but if JJ McCarthy sucks, then this draft is toast. So I am all in on the MIN Train at this point!
  • 11/12 spot: TBD
  • 13/14 spot: TBD
  • 15/16 spot: TBD
  • 17/18 spot: TBD
  • 19/20 spot: TBD

Sure...and I'm in the boat with some others, I haven't done a superflex in close to 10years

From the 7 spot...
  • 1st - Joe Burrow: Felt he was the last of the sure fire bets at QB. Would not have minded another position, but wanted a true #1 QB
  • 2nd - Malik Nabers : Tons of targets is why I took him, but the QB situation is iffy at best. Considered all of the next 4-6 position players which were taken. I like all of them to some degree or another.
  • 3rd - George Kittle: Took him in the other draft we did, so maybe I am higher on him than consensus. With Ayuik coming back from injury, Pearsall being young felt Kittle should continue to see a lot of targets. Was hoping he would get to me. If a RB would have fallen then I probably would have taken them over Kittle. A little concerned about not grabbing a 2nd QB.
  • 4th - Tyreek Hill: It was Hill or Higgins for me. Both have injury concerns and a headcase concern for Hill. Hill is more boom or bust. But that boom is top 5 WR. Would have taken McCarthy if he made it all the way back, but comments posted already were clear that wasn't happening.
  • 5th - Jordon Love: Really wanted James Cook or Ken Walker. Cook will have TD regression, Walker fits the offense perfectly but injury issues. In the end felt Love might be the last of a tier and it was obvious 4-5 QBs were going before it got back to me. So hands tied a bit and had to take Love.
  • 6th - Mike Evans: This is probably my biggest draft weakness, the RBs I liked went and I think there is a decent drop off to the next. So rather than forcing a RB (which is probably better for my team build/construction), went with the WR I like. And just realized this is another player I took in the earlier $5 best ball we did. I need to do more drafts!
  • 7th - ...
 
I really don't like the 6 spot in SF. I think there is a clear top 5, then a big group of players who are all pretty much interchangeable. After debating with myself for a while (should I go RB, WR, QB?), I just said, what the heck, I'll just go with the one guy who is the clear #1 at his position and see how my draft shakes out. Still to be determined.
 
So I would be intersted in some dialogue on why you guys made the picks where you did. I am always interested in learning the strategy. So I'll start:
I'm in the 8 spot. My strategy for almost anything is first and foremost that my goal is to drive my enemies before me and hear the lamentations of their women.

Then I reverse engineer from there. So, from the 8 spot thus far:

1st - Well I've done enough of these now this year that I know we unloaded the top tier of QBs by the time my pick came up. I knew Kyler and Mahomes were going later and so it isn't great value to reach for one of them in the first. Not at 8. If Burrow were there at 8 I might still take Bijan though. If Bowers is there I have a decision, and with my "firing several bullets" theory, at least in the big contests anyway but maybe less so in an isolated 12 team league like this, sometimes I would take Bowers there sometimes I would take Bijan there. As it was, neither Bowers or Burrow so then for me it's going for the #1 RB off the board. I'm ok with it being Barkley but I like Bijan better. If for whatever reason Chase had fallen there I probably take him and it is a coin flip with Bijan. Chase has fallen to the late 1st in plenty of SF drafts.

2nd
- Either Kyler, Fields or Nix were on my mind here. Murray is the more established veteran by a mile and is more of a running producer than maybe being given credit per ADP. If I'd gone QB in the 1st round I would at least consider Nabers, Achane or Henry in the 2nd. As it were I went RB at 1 so QB at 2 is close to a necessity and I think Kyler is actually pretty great value there.

3rd - Not in love with the WR/RB/TE landscape at this spot. McConkey is one of my highest rated value picks this year. He is already expensive in the 2nd/3rd of most formats but I think he is a league winner this year and gets a zillion targets. So I almost took him here, also thinking I might grab Herbert in the 4th. But ultimately the need and desire for a strong 2nd QB was too good with Caleb, Purdy, Dak and others. I was also afraid ALL of those next QBs would go before getting back to me. It's a wide range of outcomes in that spot. I think Caleb is going to smash this year, I'm a homer, it's $5, and I think critically that grabbing a 2nd QB in this particular spot gives me much more flexibility in the 4th.

4th - Do I want to put more chips in on a team strength (and need?) and grab another good QB IMO in Herbert? I almost grabbed Tyreek and I almost grabbed G Wilson. Would have been happy with either but I also was gambling that Marvin Harrison would fall in the 5th to pair with Kyler, in which case not taking a 3rd QB in that spot in the 4th round might have pigeonholed me into a 2QB build again, which as I've talked about upthread, I'm trying to avoid even though I keep doing it.

5th - Harrison did fall and it was a slam pick. This is a good example of taking a stack pair vs best player on the board because in this case I actually did reach across that boundary to grab Harrison. Because I actually have JSN higher and I have Cook as probably a coin flip there. But pairing Harrison with Kyler when I don't have McBride is too good here. There is a very strong chance he outperforms his ADP and maybe even makes a big leap. He fits that profile. (so does JSN and he isn't competing with McBride).

6th - Hampton fell and it was a slam pick. Stacking theory usually says that pairing a QB with their RB doesn't really do anything. Unless they get lot of receptions. Hampton might IDK. I definitely think he takes over that backfield and RBs are still a thing we need in these drafts. The stacking aspect is probably moot. Other than to say that if there is a game where Hampton scores a couple rushing TDs and has a big game but Herbert maybe doesn't, then I have two other strong QBs to cover him that week. If Hampton has a bad week it *might* be because Herbert was throwing TDs so there is at least some perks to having them together.

7th - Will Lisa find out Bob has been banging Carol behind her back? Will Tiffany leave George? Will George care? Tune in next week folks (ok like tomorrow) on the Days of our Drafts

agreed, and that's largely what I've been doing too. gimme Bowers in one, gimme Bijan or Barkley in another, Chase if he is there

I view it as a Big 7 myself, 5 QB's at the top with Bijan and Chase. If I can land any of those 7 I'm pretty happy.
 
1.5 - Hurts last tier 1 qb. could finish qb1
2 - Achane rb6 another guy who can finish 1 at his position
3 - Baker as qb9. surprised he was still available so kinda had to.
4 - Tee Higgins wr14. I dont do much superflex so I feel lucky when big time players fall to me in round 4
5 - Breece Hall RB13. Same story different round
6 - Rodgers qb28. last lock starter imo.
7 - omg another guy fell to me or something...

I'm excited for your pick but from what I've gathered George don't give AF and the kicker is that's actually why Tiffany won't leave him.

Lisa already knows. She's not even mad at Bob, she knows she's partly responsible for pushing him into another woman's arm's. But Carol going behind her back? Oh hell no, she's keeping Carol close for now while she plots her revenge.

Also I got sniped on all 3 big stacks AJB/Evans/DKM
 
I'll play
1.02- probably should've done the smart thing and taken Allen but I ve never had Chase in a team and figured wth 😆
2.11 definitely needed QB here and took my best remaining, was hoping for Mahomes
3.02 rookie mistake not going QB here too but JT is a fav of mine.
4.11 Lion's fan hoping for Goff so took Stafford as a fall back
5.02 Adams, another fav of mine to pair with Stafford
6.11 missed the QB run again and didn't want to miss TE run too. Kelce should get 100 targets,just need him to do something with them this year
7.02 Conner in a close call over Chubba
 
1.03 - Josh Allen - Easy smash here. Allen is my #1 player in this format.
2.10 - Derek Henry - Wanted a top RB anchor with low injury risk.
3.03 - Josh Jacobs - perhaps my least favorite pick, but decided to go best RB available...not a ton of value here
4.10 - Travis Lawrence - another relatively low injury risk player and I anticipated QBs would continue to run off the board so wanted to get ahead of that
5.03 - Mclaurin - Best available WR on the board for me, minor concerns with holdout
6.10 - Daniel Jones - I'm higher on him than the consensus and I saw a clear dropoff after him so perhaps reached a little bit here, wonder if he would have been available at my next pick?
7.03 - DK Metcalf - Thrilled to get DK here...I like his best ball profile

Picks I didn't love, but not terrible
 
1st - I'm ok with it being Barkley but I like Bijan better.

2nd
- Either Kyler, Fields or Nix were on my mind here. Murray is the more established veteran by a mile

3rd [/BI think Caleb is going to smash this year, I'm a homer, it's $5, and I think critically that grabbing a 2nd QB in this particular spot gives me much more flexibility in the 4th.

4th - Do I want to put more chips in on a team strength (and need?) and grab another good QB IMO in Herbert?

5th - Harrison did fall and it was a slam pick.

6th - Hampton fell and it was a slam pick.

7th - DJ Moore


I don't like most of these picks or the strategy.

I have Gibbs over Bijan
Would much rather have Malik over Kyler
Dak way over Caleb
Any of the top available WRs over QB3 Herbert
Cook or Walker over Harrison Jr. (value was at RB there)
Hampton is fine
Moore also fine

You will probably win the league now, congrats!
 
My thought process on the SF BB draft so far from the 11 slot:

1. Gibbs RB - my last slam-dunk 1st round RB from the big 3 of Bijan/Barkley/Gibbs, so I took him knowing I’d take best QB available 3picks later.
2. Mahommes QB - don’t love him here since his reputation outperforms his fantasy output the last year or 2, but he was definitely the Best QB available here imho
3. Dak QB - After seeing how the 20 picks went between my 2nd and 3rd round picks, and looking my tiers and position scarcity, I knew I wanted to go QB/WR at this 3/4 turn, so I took the QB I wanted most here at 3.11, since I had 3 WRs all ranked the same (McConkey, London , AJB)
4. McConkey WR - my highest ranked WR in this tier though there are 5-7 WRs that could be argued here.
5. Cook RB - a GIANT QB Run happened between my 4th and 5th picks, so I decided to go RB/WR at this 5/6 turn. I once again preferred one RB over a couple others, and had a few WRs I’d be happy with 3 picks later, so I went Cook.
6. JSN WR - my top WR at this point. Was happy to wait another round to grab my first TE.
7. AJones RB - position scarcity creeping up for RBs faster than WRs (of course) so took a solid flex RB in Jones here, and waited on TE since I had 3 of them grouped in the same tier and would take whichever one Saint didn’t take on his 2 picks at the turn.
8. Andrews TE - Best Available TE at this point imo. Felt like there was now a big tier drop at TE after this point, so happy to get him here
9. No clue. 20 picks is a looooooong wait. Will strategize once it hits me in the face.

I really like this draft.
Should I be worried?
 
I have done several SF BBs this yr, but SF is really not my bag. Maybe the pendulum swings back this year and the Zero\Hero RB clans rise from the ashes to storm the 2025 championship gates.

1.01: Jayden Daniels - Allen, Jackson, Daniels all pretty even, coin toss
2.12: Nico Collins - Best WR available
3.01: Brian Thomas - Best WR available
4.12: Drake Maye - Dual threat and I think he breaks out
5.01: Garrett Wilson - Only show in town and should see a ton of targets again
6.12: Sam LaPorta - Seems everyone is down on him now and its all about Jameson, maybe they are right, we shall see
7.01: T.J. Hockenson - Like him a lot and would have picked him over LaPorta if I had too

4.12: Drake Maye - He can run and I like his arm as well
5.01: Garrett Wilson - Only show in town and should see a ton of targets again
6.12: Sam LaPorta - Seems everyone is down on him now and its all about Jameson, maybe they are right, we shall see
7.01: T.J. Hockenson - Like him a lot and would have picked him over LaPorta if I had too
What’s below “zero” RB? Negative RB? Irrational RB?
;)
 
1st - I'm ok with it being Barkley but I like Bijan better.

2nd - Either Kyler, Fields or Nix were on my mind here. Murray is the more established veteran by a mile

3rd [/BI think Caleb is going to smash this year, I'm a homer, it's $5, and I think critically that grabbing a 2nd QB in this particular spot gives me much more flexibility in the 4th.

4th - Do I want to put more chips in on a team strength (and need?) and grab another good QB IMO in Herbert?

5th - Harrison did fall and it was a slam pick.

6th - Hampton fell and it was a slam pick.

7th - DJ Moore


I don't like most of these picks or the strategy.

I have Gibbs over Bijan
Would much rather have Malik over Kyler
Dak way over Caleb
Any of the top available WRs over QB3 Herbert
Cook or Walker over Harrison Jr. (value was at RB there)
Hampton is fine
Moore also fine

You will probably win the league now, congrats!
These are nearly all player takes and have nothing to do with strategy. If you think the value was at RB with Cook/Walker that is cool but those are based on player takes, not strategy. I hate Walker and won't be drafting him if I can help it and if you actually read my write-up you'd see I had Cook as a coinflip with Harrison there.

Would you say taking Rome and dj Moore is a strategy to ensure bears pass catcher?
My question has nothing to do with your current discussion, just asking.
 
I have done several SF BBs this yr, but SF is really not my bag. Maybe the pendulum swings back this year and the Zero\Hero RB clans rise from the ashes to storm the 2025 championship gates.

1.01: Jayden Daniels - Allen, Jackson, Daniels all pretty even, coin toss
2.12: Nico Collins - Best WR available
3.01: Brian Thomas - Best WR available
4.12: Drake Maye - Dual threat and I think he breaks out
5.01: Garrett Wilson - Only show in town and should see a ton of targets again
6.12: Sam LaPorta - Seems everyone is down on him now and its all about Jameson, maybe they are right, we shall see
7.01: T.J. Hockenson - Like him a lot and would have picked him over LaPorta if I had too

will be interesting to see how you recover at RB. The TE value was nice there.

Well it's obviously a stacking strategy but both players were picked right around ADP so there wasn't a value question to be concerned with whereas there might be in other spots and other stacks. I admitted above to "reaching" for Harrison to complete a stack with Kyler but only because I slightly preferred JSN and had it as a coinflip with Cook. That isn't much of a reach as Harrison was also taken at ADP.

That's why I say those are player takes. The strategy of stacking or not stacking (on my squad in this particular league) is moot here because all of the players I have taken were at ADP. If I had a strong enough preference for another player I would take that player and I've said that repeatedly in this thread. In this particular instance both the AZ and CHI stacks I've built were done without having to reach at all.

I don’t play best ball so I have never seen WR stacks before.
 
New to SF as of a few weeks ago but this is my 8th draft. What I've noticed in these is the WR value has been insane, at least that's my opinion, just pushed back way more then RB and TE. Recently finished a draft in this format from the 12 spot and my first 7 picks were all QB's and RB's and still really liked the WR group(not so much the TE's). So all things being close to equal wanted to try it again, so came into the draft with goal of pounding away at QB's and RB's early, maybe mix in a TE if all worked out, and only go WR if extreme value presented itself-which it did.

1.10 Barkley-was between him and Gibbs.

2.03- CMC-was thinking a little about the two players I picked him between, Mahomes and McBride. Mahomes decision was made for me.

3.10- Purdy-posted earlier it was between him and Dak. Having CMC is what swung me from angle of stacking/consistency.

4.03-London- as I stated above I really was not trying to take a WR early unless value was extreme. This was it IMO. After securing my QB in round 3 I told
myself if any of London, AJB or Ladd make it back to me I'm going to have to alter my plan to take a QB or RB here and go with one of them.

5.10-Tua-one of the biggest disparity in players in how I view them in BB vs setting a lineup.

6.03-Bryce- Wanted that third secure starting QB, better play at end of season, extra weapon and stinky D should give me some weeks, this and Tua were actually my two easiest calls relative to QB options to choose from.

7.10- Tet McMillan-second time I dipped into a WR earlier then I thought due to Bryce stack.

8.03- Mixon-considered him or Harvey with this pick, and would have taken both if Carolina stack did not present itself. Holy hell are my RB's old and I'm one of the most age averse drafters you will see, and why I considered Harvey over him. I've not drafted Mixon this year and pretty light on the whole old trio but for $5 at least I won't totally get shut out.

9.10- Olave-played this wrong. Wanted Kraft a little more then Olave but looking at the board and ADP I played odds I could get both. Fail.

10.03- Tyler Warren-was between him and another rookie TE. Decided not to break Barack's heart. Similar to my Mixon selection, first time I've drafted him all year in FFPC and I'm about 20 drafts into it. If this team rocks it might mean I had a horrible fantasy season, lol.

tbc........
