Do you think I possibly tried package deals before going for a 2023 2nd? Yes, of course I did. No takers unfortunately.
Wait. Hang on. HotSauceDude likes the 2023 draft??? Breaking news!!Gimme Lenny & the picks all day. Feel like Akers is going to be mired in a RBBC, and still don't know if he's back all the way. Lombardi Lenny will be plenty valuable & I love me some 2023 picks
Even if I didn’t I like the Lenny side more here. If it was Lenny & a 2022 pick I might even favor it.Wait. Hang on. HotSauceDude likes the 2023 draft??? Breaking news!!
I’d probably take the DJM side. Not sure who you’ll get at 1.04 that’s better. Moore is still only 25, and chances are the Panthers will figure out a QB in the next ~1-2 years.
Respectfully, the bolded seems incongruous with your initial statement.
Head scratching….am I missing something? Is Beasley on a team…do 3rd round picks matter?
Another head scratcher…am I missing something? I would easily pay that for Andrews.
They're slightly more valuable, but there will still be two rounds of the top players gone at that point - plus the one guy that shined the most should be gone at 3.01. I agree that one is a head scratcher - like ridiculously bad value.
If you are a believer in Cole Kmet becoming a decent starting TE1 then I could see that side as I don't like AJB in Philly, especially with his injury history but this has to go to the AJB side. I get why they did it but Mac Jones shouldn't be starting in a 1 QB league. Makes them better and BMW should age well as Allen gets older.
I'm not a Devonta Smith fan at all but this is way too light for him.
I think Pickens could be decent and I know a lot of people expect Big Bob Tonyan to have a good season with Adams gone but Andrews was the TE1 last year and not that old for the position. This feels pretty light to me too and I do think Pickens could be decent.
He didn't say Mitch was good. He said he was better than BB last year. Big difference. It is totally possible for Mitch to be better than BB last year and still get beat out by a rookie. Both of those can definitely be true.
Ok, that’s fair. I thought he’d said Mitch wasn’t great but he was better than many people thought.
My recollection was that DJ had a solid season because Ben couldn't make all the throws and had to stay short all the time because there wasn't anything else he could do. The few games I watched seemed to match that narrative. Ben's arm just wasn't the same last year.
I agree with this. I’ll add that for years, Ben’s mobility & strength helped him evade the pass rush and helped to offset a somewhat poor pass blocking OL.
We saw Mitch behind a bad OL and a bad scheme that tried to make him do things he wasn't good at. He is going to look bad when they try and make him do things he can't do. Mitch's success will greatly depend on how well the coaches adapt the offense to play to what Mitch can do. He has some skills and has shown glimpses of serviceable play. It will be up to the coaching staff to get the most out of him.
All salient points.
Before last year BB could make those throws without setting his feet and if he was pressured. It is what NFL QB's should be able to do. The fact that he needed to set his feet and get everything in line perfectly to make those throws shows that his arm wasn't the same as it had been in the past. He also had a few of those that floated on him and were underthrown.
If you think his arm was the same as it ever was then we will agree to disagree because it wasn't and I bet if you asked Big Ben himself he would say his arm was not the same as it once was.
I'm a big fan of yours Meno, I have played vs you in a few leagues. I really like your style and your success in that small sample that I have witnessed. Kudos to you and I always take note whenever you have a take in SP.
The smart play is probably Mahomes but I think I’d take the risk on the other side. I’m not a Tua fan but he’s sure set up to succeed.
I already have Murray, so this could be a pretty good duo. This person has tried several times to get T Lance, but this is the first time that I am thinking about it. I also drafted S Moore, so that could be nice pairing for the next 4+ years.
I mean you’d be giving up nice young WR in a deep WR pool but both QBs have “serious” question marks so in your position I could see it. The other side has a bit more excitement level I guess but like I said the smart play is probably Mahomes.
He has Justin Fields, so I am going to counter with those 2 for my 3. Lets see what happens.
Seems pretty fair - but since I don't see much difference in value between the two WRs, I'll take the 2nd.osiriskid said:
That's a hard one because I like both Higgins and Waddle. I suppose it comes down to which one you like better. However, if you like both equally, it comes down to the 2023 2nd. Will it be early? A great player will be available in the early 2nd. See the 2023 dynasty mock draft - https://forums.footballguys.com/topic/804376-2023-12-team-dynasty-3-round-mock-draft-ppr-start-1qb/ If an early 2nd, then I would think you have to consider getting Waddle and the 2nd. You might consider it whether the pick is early or not.osiriskid said:
