I had luck with me this week
2-0
Second highest scorer last week but this week…9th highest score but played the lowest scoring team for the week….my TEs not doing too welll…thought Kincaid would be big but so far not much

 

[Joey Wright]

@Joey Wright Are you going to start doing something with the orphaned teams?

We took care of the orphaned team in League 154. Have there been other occurrences?

 

[Instinctive]

I got waxed this week lol Kamara

 

[BassNBrew]

My opponent today dropped Luke Musgrave TE for Green Bay at 6:09 pm eastern today, well after his game kicked off; and picked up Dotson for the Eagles. Every other league I am in (not on sleeper) players lock at kick off of their game. This is my first sleeper league. Is this normal? Find that to be an odd setting.

I was not able to do something similar to this. Any chances the settings in alla the leagues aren't the same?

I got very lucky last week and bested the CMC manager.. who has decided to just run CMC out there the past couple of weeks. I don't know if this cat just gave up or what.

This week I'm facing another zombie team who seems intent on running Keenan Allen and AJB out there.

It looks like division 0033 has two managers who've already mailed it in.

147.25 points but the ship's starting to take on water. Keon Coleman, Christian Waston and Cade Otton all goosing, safely from the bench.

Here's one, don't know the league number.

@Joey Wright

Our league is 0057 wrt to the Luke Musgrave drop after the game started

 

[nittanylion]

Not off to the start I expected. After a Week 1 lucky win, a I suffered a Week 2 bad loss. I've scored a whopping 221.7 points!

1.01 McCaffrey drafter, who also drafted Mason, but lost QB1 Love and RB2 Mostert.
Along with Mason, my remaining RB room consists of McLaughlin, Justice and Corum, so not helpful, at least as of yet. League went after quality QB2's earlier than my liking. Drafted Levis, who I swapped out for Daniel Jones for Sunday, who actually held his own.

At the 2/3 turn, I selected Mike Evans/Waddle (over Puka & Kupp, so dodged that bullet, but passed on Nico), and now dealing with the Tua situation. Planned WR3/Flex rotation of Dionte/Sutton not working out so well with QB situations worse than I expected, Doubs affected by Love. Might get a boost from Demarcus, and my speculative lottery ticket Justin Watson, with Pacheco now joining Hollywood Brown on Chiefs IR.

At the 4/5 turn, with WR and pass-catching RB severely depleted, I 'zagged' with Andrews/Kincaid, as despite the League not being TE-premium, both of those TE's were projected to be their Teams' #1 pass catcher, and my WR/TE receptions projections had them significantly the BPA's available at the time. Unfortunately, that has not yet come to fruition. I drafted Likely as well, so I have that going for me. Did not start him Week 1 or 2.

Love, CMC, Mostert, Evans, Waddle, Dionte, Sutton, Andrews, Kincaid looked a lot better coming out of the Draft than it does right now!

...but I'm good at this, and there's still plenty of time. Down, but not out!

@Joey Wright

So people not setting lineups? Okay, we have had instances of people leaving the leagues leaving the team without managers. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss an instance of that. We are taking notes to address people not setting their lineups for next season. The silver lining to this situation is you'll be able to make the playoffs with a high point total even if your win-loss record isn't within the top two of your division.

 

[jabarony]

2-0! See you in the finals.

Waiver additions in game don't seem to be consist across leagues.

 

[Ruffrodys05]

Currently losing by 30.65 points. I've got Barkley and Smith going up against Pitts tonight. Got to say, I'm a little worried. As an Eagles fan I'm disappointed there's no AJ Brown tonight, but his absence will be a positive for my players. I could possibly squeak out a win.

Squeaked out that win, by less than 3 pts. One of two teams 2-0, jumped up to first place.

 

[BassNBrew]

Missed out on Christian Kirk by one dollar.

 

[TheWinz]

Missed out on Christian Kirk by one dollar.

Why is Christian Kirk available in your league?

 

[TheWinz]

Gonna be a tough week without AJB and Deebo

 

[BassNBrew]

Missed out on Christian Kirk by one dollar.

Why is Christian Kirk available in your league?

Someone dropped him so they can keep Levis and Watson backing you Lamar Jackson.

You're at such a disadvantage in this competition with all the dead teams and stuff like that happening.

"Shrug", my division, 0091, seems very active. 11 different waiver moves were completed yesterday morning, along with a number of FA moves later, as more than several waiver claims didn't make the cut.

 

[mphtrilogy]

anybody here from 009? I've made a few questionable moves on the WW so far but the Tua injury left me scrambling.. I love these $0 bids, can take some chances with that...

 

[Saint]

137 here.. happy to be 1-1.

 

[TheWinz]

Got very lucky this week. Without Deebo Samuel, I plugged in Jauan Jennings, and also had Derrick Henry and Rashee Rice go wild. I am now 2-1, and lead the league in scoring at 477.95. The last place team went ZERO RB, and has Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin, Rico Dowdle, Jaylen Warren, Blake Corum, and Jonathan Brooks. He just kept taking WR's and has Ja'Marr Chase, Davante Adams, Chris Olave, Michael Pittman, Amari Cooper, and Diontae Johnson.

I need AJB & Deebo back quickly. Hard to win when your 1st and 3rd round picks are on the bench.

 

[joey]

Likely winning my first game this week, with Puka, Love and Kittle out. Weird hobby we’re obsessed with.

 

[bamabuddha]

I may sneak in a win to go 3-0. But a few injuries…and I have Tyrek hill…he is healthy but Skylar has to be one of the worst backup in the league. Hoping dolphins try to get someone as I believe Tua may retire..I would think he is giving it serious thought. But Tyrek currently has no one to throw him the ball.

So all that to say it may all quickly crumble if injuries..and replacement QBs do not change soon…

 

[BassNBrew]

LOL...team in our league started Love, Pacheco, Deebo, and Allen and has a good chance of winning.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Nail biter between two undefeateds tonight: me Vs. (ironically) a team called ThatLuckyDog


He’s done, I’m down ~15 and I have Higgins. Pray for me.

[jm192]

Was down a point going into the final Cincy drive. Zack moss's 1st catch gave me the lead for good. The TD sealed the deal. Came down to the wire, but 2-1.

 

[zed2283]

Still don't like the interface.

Can someone explain all the red and green colors to me (points/projection, box shade, football marker)?

 

[jm192]

It's just a visual way to look at the projected score.

If i's red, you're projected to lose. The further to the left/less red here is, the closer the projection is to certain. If there's no red or green, you're out of players and you've lost.

If it's green: you're projected to win. The further to the right/more green, the closer the projection is to certain If the green bar is all the way to the right, you've won.

Still don't like the interface.

3-0 by the skin of my teeth. Survived the donut from Shaheed.

I didn't survive the donut.
Lost by half a freaking point.

Bad: He killed me in 3 leagues.

Worse: I started him over Shakir.

 

[Ruffrodys05]

3-0, convincingly, in my division. Only team without a loss. First five picks (out of the 11 slot) leading the way. Do not expect it to last (may have lost WR D. Smith for Wk.4.)

 

[InDitkaWeTrust]

1-2 with 4 guys on IR. Not looking too pretty good.

 

[Payne]

I feel like the app isn't very user friendly at all. Too much going on.

Could just be me and my old age. lol.

2-1 in League 0017

 

[Joey Wright]

my team is 1-2 and hanging by a thread. haha

The app takes getting used to. My super flex has been using it for years now and I’m just getting used to it.

3-0 here in 0115. Would have lost this week if I hadn’t started Jennings.
The league seems to be active, even the teams that are struggling.

 

[Saint]

Sitting at 2-1 through some miracle with 4 guys out. Right now my lineup is being held together by band aids.

 

[joey]

1-2 and not doing the Shark Pool proud so far.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

ETA - wait, disregard. It hasn’t updated. I’m still 67th overall, and it hasn’t updated for this week as it still shows me with 2
Wins.

I’m sure I’ve dropped a bit - I only scored 130-ish.

Where do you see overall leaders? Not that I am anywhere close. Just curious.

Click top right ~> standings. Our league commish posted the link up after week 1.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Still hasn’t updated. Not sure what the timing is with that.

 

[Saint]

Ugh... sitting outside the Top 500... bleah.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Ugh... sitting outside the Top 500... bleah.

1. It hasn’t updated for week 3 results
2. It is only werk 3, so… plenty of time.

 

[stubby]

I’m 3-0, only undefeated team in our league. Yay me? I’m sure that will last about as long as my entry into the subscriber contest

 

[TheWinz]

I would be 38th overall points-wise after 2 weeks (323.60), but I lost week 2. I'm currently 2-1 with 477.95 total points (tops in my division), but there are 2 undefeated teams, so I'm in 3rd place.

 

[Instinctive]

Got my *** kicked. Need to do a better job thinking more strategically in these things next year. Like understanding the no trades and super deep rosters therefore the need to prioritize backup QB/TE far more than normal, to value a more even depth across RB/WR than usual, etc.

Agreed. I went in with a plan to grab Taysom Hill and TJ Hockenson and that went well. Figured I could ride Taysom until TJ returned, but found myself visiting the barren waiver wire, grabbing Jordan Akins for week 3. He's now my starter until one of my dead TE's gets healthy.
