In my defense, we started our main draft yesterday at 11:30 and it turned into a very long day. Lots of fun yesterday. Slow thinker today.Although I guess my avatar might suggest otherwise. I'm a little slow tonight I guess.
Now you're catching on.

Is Davis up to 12 TD yet?

I mean, if the season gets truncated and he only plays 8 games, sure.Is Davis up to 12 TD yet?

Same as Lion WR Quintez Cephus. Which I guess explains his name.

Went 52 this weekend in my draft.
Hot Sauce Guy

pick 68 (me) in my draft Sat.
I now know he almost (coin flip between him & Nick Bosa) went 5.04, one pick before me, and had I not taken him he would have gone 6.09, 1 pick after me (same guy)

The drop off after Gabriel at WR is just massive
So only 2 of the 12 owners in your league were interested him in the first 6 rounds which is interesting. I think everyone has pumped their brakes since the "get him round 4!" frenzie in here over those 2 days. 6th round feels right.pick 68 (me) in my draft Sat.
I now know he almost (coin flip between him & Nick Bosa) went 5.04, one pick before me, and had I not taken him he would have gone 6.09, 1 pick after me (same guy)
All valid points.Which you already knew since we discussed this in the other topic.
And again: in an IDP league, your ADP and reality don't match. I looked at the draft board just now and 8 IDP picks went between rounds 5 and 6. So my pick at 6.08 was equivalent to 6.01
Why the rest of the league didn't grab him isn't for lack of interest, it was the 1st IDP run we had. IDP throws ADP into chaos as the elite LB and DL are gobbled up.
So 6.01 in yours, and right at his ADP of a non IDP league. Might have to grab him late 5th if you want him.

As mentioned, he was a coin flip away from going 5.04
lol at using "a 'coin flip away' from 5.04" as any reflection of his common draft spot when no one touched him for 16 picks after that
Nice, 5.06 isn't too crazy given it's start 3WR and that boosts WR a bit.
Ok, well you still had a shot at him at 5.05 and passed. And all those other people didn't find him to be 'amazing' value in the 5th or 6th. But sure, take away those 8 picks and he was valued at the 61st player in your draft. You really like to die on this hill lollol at repeatedly pretending that 8 of those 16 picks weren't defensive players despite having been informed of this multiple times.
Great. So in 2WR and non IDP leagues, he should be going after 6.01. Got it, thanks for the clarification.
So those who have mentioned their home leagues:
@C-Bound took him at pick 78
@VikingFrog took him at 63
@Deamon took him at 66
@Hot Sauce Guy took him at 60 (68 but 8 were IDP)
Icon saw him go 72
Icon saw him go 63
Icon saw him go 75
Gally at 54.
We're starting to see where he's really going now.

You're making no sense. 3 WR's BOOSTS where he's going over 2 WR leagues. So if you're chiming in that your league is start 3WR, then pick 68 (60 without idp) is even more telling that on average he isn't going round 4.Often when people realize they're talking out of both sides of their face, they resort to this sort of deflection. Thanks for the demonstration (deamonstration, I guess)
So back to the original discussion, you thought I got him right at ADP at 6.08 (despite the 8 IDP players taken) and you think "5.06 isn't too crazy", but those are completely consistent things in your eyes.
Or you've just been trolling me incessantly. One of the two.
ADP is around 6.01, so anywhere mid 5th to mid 6th is in that range.
A far cry from the 4th round you were pushing 2 weeks ago.
Ahh, back to your stubbornness. Never lose that HSG!
I've showed you sample sizes of thousands of leagues. His ADP across every redraft MFL REAL draft that's happened since August 15th is pick 62.
But keep talking about how he "almost went" in the 5th in your league before you took him at 68
Hot Sauce Guy

This is a false premise fallacy.
I never "pushed" that he was going in the 4th.
I informed people that he was going in the 4th in NFC drafts. Perhaps reading comprehension is the issue here.
I also quite specifically said that I *thought* i would have to take him in the 5th, because I *guessed* he'd be going in the 6th in my league. And he would have gone in the 6th regardless of whether I took him there or not, AND he nearly went in the 5th.
Perhaps if you weren't so obsessive about catching me in some weirdo "gotcha" you'd take more time to read the posts and we could have a thoughtful discussion, instead of....well, instead of whatever weirdo stuff this is you insist on continuing.

52 in my long running home league this weekend.

Went 53/WR23 in our full PPR (12 team, start 3.)
Consensus rankings had him at 70/WR30 and his consensus ADP was 74/WR33.
The rent is too dam high!

ohhhhhhhh burrrrrnnnnn. From the guy who goes on rants about personal attacks.

There's a difference between your "guessing" and "ID BET MY LIFE ON IT!" and "I GUARANTEE!" terms you threw around that both predictably didnt happen
Nice Edit, thanks
You had him in the 5th... and passed... and so did a lot of people after that. But you got him in the 6th where he's usually going so good job
Seems about right.
If you think I'm an insane stalker weirdo then it's one button for you to not see my posts again, but clearly you don't want to do that.3rd time you've quoted this. You gonna do it a 4th, you insane stalker weirdo?You had him in the 5th... and passed... and so did a lot of people after that. But you got him in the 6th where he's usually going so good job
You were so sure of it, but it's a good lesson for you to not dig in so hard and make such "100% going to happen!" predictions that don't come true. It's growth though, you'll get there.

FWIW, home draft PPR - 59th overall at the 6.09 in a 10 team start 2 WR + Flex.
I took Brandin Cooks at 51st, Amon-Ra St. Brown went the following pick and then Gabe Davis - followed by Michael Thomas, Marquise Brown, Allen Robinson, Adam Thielen, JJSS. I think he was appropriately drafted in this league but I am higher on than Amon-Ra St. Brown than probably most but I consider his production and Davis' production to have some parallels. I went the safe route with Cooks and if it weren't 19 picks until my next I would have let Cooks fall down the draft board, because he is the best receiver nobody ever talks about... but, couldn't risk.

More personal attacks, nice.
You're not being stalked, it will be okay. If you're bothered by being quoted then click ignore and you will be just fine.

Yep. Last night he went 4.7 in a 14 teamer. Was hoping to get him at 5.12 so at least I didn't get sniped right before my pick
Anyways, why don't you try to keep this on topic about Gabe Davis. I'm gunning to get him tonight at 6.08.
Hot Sauce Guy

I don't mind the Cooks > Davis selection at all. I would have done the same (and did so with Sutton in fact).
I also agree with Davis over many of those players - JJSS has a lot of health concerns with that balky knee. ARSB has to prove he can do it again, Thomas health concerns, Thielen age - Davis has as much potential upside there without the red flags/risks of poor health. Of course Davis, like ARSB has to prove it as well, but I like Davis' QB/situation better - it seems more predictable with the best QB in the NFL.
Ya it's always better when it's not right before you. 5.12 in 14 teamer would be pick 70 which might have been a bit ambitious.Yep. Last night he went 4.7 in a 14 teamer. Was hoping to get him at 5.12 so at least I didn't get sniped right before my pick

I sincerely hope he goes in the 4th. That would be hysterical.
"I'll bet my life" that he doesn't.

Pointing out your repeated nonsense isn't a personal attack.
It's commenting on something you're doing. Scroll up to see yourself doing it and own it.
lol ok there man. Try getting back to the topic or block me if you don't want to see. Next.

Yeah, I didn't expect him to be there at 5.12, but couldn't pull the trigger at 4.3 with Mike Williams still on the board.Ya it's always better when it's not right before you. 5.12 in 14 teamer would be pick 70 which might have been a bit ambitious.Yep.

I played golf in the morning with the guy that grabbed him. Too much FF banter during the round maybe

Okay boys. Walk away and stop commenting to each other.
I’m here for Gabe Dave news. Not to hear you two bicker back and forth. No matter who started it. I’m ending it.
Stop responding and I’ll refill my annual fantasy hot sauce order @Hot Sauce Guy
