I'm just playing around. You've been around waaaaaay to long for me to keep up the hyperbole.
I play in one similar. 10 pickups total. Primary reason is to stress the importance of the draft and make waivers really count. Very forgiving IR rules so waivers aren't really about recovering from injuries. Small league with small rosters so there are always lots of impact players on the wire and this removes the ability to just stream waiver pickups all year. It makes it much more challenging - week 3 last year I had Matt Ryan as my QB with Bortles on the wire. No-brainer add in most leagues, but with only 10 on the year I really had to make sure it was a worthy upgrade (it was, obviously). People can't just willy-nilly add hot waiver guys and strike gold.
That's what I'll be curious to watch. What record do the Cowboys need to have where Dak stays in at QB or is it Romo's team no matter what? At some point their needs to be a line where you keep the guy in there knowing Tony is like Mr. Glass. 6-4, 7-3, 8-2, 9-1, 10-0?
Sounds like an owner who just doesnt get dynasty thinking.
It apparently wasnt high enough to have spent his third round pick on at the time of the draft.
Dak continued to look good in preseason.
I agree with all of this. I would have agreed with it back in May, so it should have been baked into his dynasty value all along.
I am all in this week and kind of excited about it...I was able to get Brady at a price that made too much sense in my auction...caught me a little off-guard by the value...on draft night I also grabbed Mariota and Jimmy G...after the smoke cleared I dropped Jimmy G for Dak and will roll the dice on him at home against a questionable D...if he's a legit (and he looked just awesome in preseason) it will help me get to Brady in week 5...if not I drop him for another waiver option and figure it out with that QB and Mariota......that being said because I have Brady I am probably in a different spot than most owners who probably have a better option as far as actually starting him...
I'm in a similar boat as a Brady owner. I liked what I saw in preseason and I believe his rushing ability can make up for a mistake here and there. As of now I'm rolling with him over Brock O., RG3 and Flacco.
Theres a chance ya might want to post in the coachs assistant forum..
For sure. Take a little of the sting out of being 1-7 in dynasty.
