***Shark Pool Home League UNO*** - Two-Tight-End Sets FTW (7 Viewers)

First Mahomes, now Harrison. Damn you guys. Sharks bite in here. The water's turning red. Time to regroup here.
QB still would have been early at 2.10, and Harrison likely had no shot to make it all the way to 2.10.
Well, if we all drafted the way we are "supposed to" then it's not really any fun. Scared money don't make money.
Ya, I just wouldn't have counted on Harrison, his ADP is very early 2nd.
 
JJ First overall!?!?!? Damn.

It was 7am and I didn't have my coffee yet.
If someone gives you the cheat code son, you don't thumb your nose at the fantasy gods.
Went Puka

Great pick IMO. Well done.

BTW, next (and perhaps biggest) curveball of the draft incoming... :cool:
MAHOMES!?!?! Damn. This a wild draft already. You didn't think he'd be there at 3.10?
Dang, I would signed up if I knew free money was being handed out.
*eyeroll*
Come on dude, I thought you were a Philly fan. When did you go all sensitive?
We have feelings too! :P
 
Jacobs at 2.06! Dammmnnn.

Henry at 2.07.

That's about where Jacobs went in my FBG Bowl. Just weeks ago I was scooping him up in the late fourth with Mahomes still on the board. Probably one of the biggest risers this pre-season on minimal news.

Seen Henry go close to the 1/2 turn. Seems like most around here like him more than Barkley, but Barkley always seems to get drafted first.

I haven't said anything to hurt your feeling yet. Waiting until you draft Dotson in the 3rd.

I don't mix fantasy with fandom. AJ Brown was kind of an easy choice in the 1st for me, but for the most part I very rarely draft Eagles.

I'm also currently drafting in one of the $200 FBG Home leagues and Barkley went at the 1.05! That was nuts.

The are going to be a lot of disappointed Barkley or Henry owners. I just don't know which one.

I haven't been able to pull it off, but I've seen it possible....Brown/Barkely/Smith/Hurts. I'd been perfectly fine rolling that lineup out weekly with a 5th rd RB, Kittle/Pitts in the 6th and a 7th rd WR.
 
Passing TD6 for each
Passing Yards.05 for 1 yard (1 point for every 20 yards)

Most won't agree and that's okay... I think elite QBs are uber valuable in this format.
Now you're just angling hoping to get a QB run going! :P
Has to be. Such a deep QB pool this year, but I did have Mahomes as my #1 QB and I think he's primed for a monster season. If he goes 5,000 & 40+, like I believe he can, that's going to end up a great pick.
True... but if no QB's go before round 4, then it turns out to be not as nice. I do think Mahomes is going to have a huge year though and end QB1

This year I have Mahomes in his own tier in terms of extreme upside and (health permitting) very high floor. I wanted to build my team around that - especially considering this socring format with not only 6 pts per TD, but also juiced for passing yards (5 per 100, instead of the more typical 4). Based on that scoring, I predict the elite QBs will prove themselves more valuable than traditional VBD thinking would have them, especially when you also account for weekly scoring variance + bust and injury risk, which standard VBD models ignore.

TL;DR - wherever you are able to get one, elite QBs have more value than most think. Who knows when the run will start, but once it does, it should have legs.
 
I like the Mahomes pick. In another one of these I took him early, not quite this early but 3.11, qb2, Allen off the board. The guy I really really wanted went at 3.10 and I was unhappy. So I took Mahomes and changed my plan. I gotta say that draft has been stress free with Patrick on board. If you wait at QB like I usually do; and if that includes a specific target, the QB runs are too unpredictable especially when you draft near a corner. Your guy just might not come back to you and you're constantly debating when to take him. With Mahomes on the team, I've had no trouble happily filling out the roster.

@LawFitz planted the seed. A couple QBs are going to go in the third now, just watch.
Having done the FBG Bowl, the best teams I saw were the ones who waited. Between starting most everyone on your roster and drafting 20 rounds deep into practice squad guys, there's not going to be much room to cover up over reaching for a QB.
Wait..how many rounds?
 
Thought I'd get either Adams or Kelce there. Hated this area of the draft in every mock I've done. WRs are dart throws and RBs all have major questions. Decided on London hoping the change in offense makes him a breakthrough performer. With Penix behind Cousins, I feel good about his QB situation.

I took London in my home draft from the 2nd position. That plus I had to have a raider.

Thought about Nico there. I'm usually in a league with all Texans fans, so I rarely get any. Just thought London had a little less target competition and room to make a jump in production
 
Well my hand was forced. I didn’t like my options at WR and RB, and want to hold off on QB for a few rounds, so I guess I’ll be playing double TE sets this season!
Wild. I like that stack in bestball but not so much in non te premium redraft. Will you take McBride next round? lol

Thought crossed my mind if he comes around.
I think he'll prob be there. Do it! lol
I double dog dare you. Start a trend. Drafting big beefy pass catching tight ends. Lots of em
