Hard for me to totally gauge within an 8-team league, but that team is stout

Thx. I got a little lucky. I was 7th of 8 in waivers. I foolishly let the AI make my last 2 picks. It didn't take Singletary, but I got him off waivers. The guy who was 8th/last in waivers was the only other GM that made a waiver bid for him. Crazy.

Had a draft yesterday PPR, 10th pick. Seemed everyone was going WR. So Hall fell to me at 10 somehow. I kinda went zero WR in this league, just based on value.
Start 2 Flex and I figured I can always trade with a RB needy team, which I did last year. The last few picks I just took handcuffs and dart throws. Didn't draft a Kicker, since I could IR Hockenson. I'm just gonna pick one up. Hopkins was a "Oh crap there's 3 seconds on the clock and I don't wanna get autopicked a defense" pick aha.

1.	(10)	Breece Hall (NYJ - RB)
2.	(11)	Saquon Barkley (Phi - RB)
3.	(30)	Michael Pittman Jr. (Ind - WR)
4.	(31)	Rachaad White (TB - RB)
5.	(50)	Alvin Kamara (NO - RB)
6.	(51)	Stefon Diggs (Hou - WR)
7.	(70)	Joe Burrow (Cin - QB)
8.	(71)	Evan Engram (Jax - TE)
9.	(90)	Courtland Sutton (Den - WR)
10.	(91)	Keon Coleman (Buf - WR)
11.	(110)	DeAndre Hopkins (Ten - WR)
12.	(111)	T.J. Hockenson (Min - TE)
13.	(130)	Jaleel McLaughlin (Den - RB)
14.	(131)	Michael Wilson (Ari - WR)
15.	(150)	Braelon Allen (NYJ - RB)
16.	(151)	Dallas (Dal - DEF)
17.	(170)	Justin Herbert (LAC - QB)

Also a standard 10 draft I had over the weekend with the 1st pick I wound up with this. (This league you get double points if say a QB runs a TD, RB catches one, etc)

RB: McCaffrey, Jacobs, Singletary, Warren, Corum
WR: Olave, Aiyuk, Flowers, Ridley, Godwin, Addison
TE: Andrews

QBs: Burrow, Caleb Williams
RBs: ETN, CMC, James Conner, Hubbard, and David Montgomery.
WRs: Olave , Nico Collins, George Pickens, Christian Watson, and Tee Higgins

Not really a fan of Olave - but most of the big guns went immediately.

Haha I just noticed his TE.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Did the yahoo public league this year. H2H
Bunch of No Names
10 team league
QB Mahomes, Levis
RB Henry, Harris, Singletary, Edwards, Chubb
WR AJ Brown, Cooper, Dell, Kirk,
TE McBride, Freirmuth
Def Buffalo
K Koo
Took Chubb with the last pick hoping he can help me later in the season.
Yahoo does draft report grades. They gave me a D plus even though many of my picks, especially the bench were the best on the board. They gave me a F last year and I won 11 games

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

Haha I just noticed his TE.

Jesus christ. I promise you that wasn't done on purpose

 

[Rodgerwilco]

Cut down to 2 leagues this year.

Main League - 10-team, 0.5 PPR, $100 buy-in

QB: Goff
RB: Henry, Mixon, Montgomery, Mostert
WR: J. Jefferson, Evans, Coleman, Doubs, Hopkins, Lockett
TE: Ferguson, Taysom Hill (I can't help myself)
D/ST: Cleveland
K: Butker

Secondary League- 12-team, 0.5 PPR, $25

QB: Goff, Carr
RB: Gibbs, K. Williams, Warren, Benson
WR: Higgins, Olave, Coleman, Godwin, Boyd, Lockett, Samuel, Wicks
TE: LaPorta
D/ST: 49ers
K: Elliot

Definitely a lot less RB heavy than I normally go, but I'm trying a different approach. I'm going to be really vigilant about free agent pick-ups once an un-drafted RB secures a spot and possibly swing a trade or two when I can.

Overall, I like my team though. My second league could result in some pretty strong stack weeks with Goff + Gibbs + LaPorta

 

[mouser]

The season is still young, but my favorite pick after week one is getting DET WR Jameson Williams round 11(#126).

Huge breakout potential this season, with a great week 1 start.

I tried that both his first 2 years

words can't describe my hatred for TNF

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Last night, I’m all juiced over James Cook’s performance. This morning, I see Cook is on my opponent’s roster in my second league. No joy in Mudville.

 

[EpochLink]

Run CMC out for week 2.
I picked up Jordan Mason on waivers, fantasy players about to punch a hole in their walls picking CMC number 1 lmao

 

[EpochLink]

Run CMC to the IR, out at least 4 games

This is ME!

 

[EpochLink]

Two weeks in a row and Laporta has been terrible in fantasy.

Gonna go with Brock Bowers for week 3, dude balled out against the Ravens yesterday.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

Came down to Drake London and a 15 pt. lead against Hurts.

Whew...barely pulled that out

 

[Andre Palot]

10 team H2H

QB: Murray, Burrow, Goff
WR: Ridley, Collins, Adams, Brown (IR)
RB: Henry, Cook, Singletary
TE: Pitts, Freiermuth
K: Butker, Bass
D/ST: Kansas City

What should I do here? Trade one of the three QBs for RB help seems like the move but I think since who knows how long A.J. Brown is gonna be out for, my WRs could use tinkering...

Could always trade for stronger TE help too.

Personally, I'd look at seeing what kind of return I'd get for either Kyler or Burrow. I'd aim at a WR since Brown is out and Ridley sucks. I usually roll with 1 QB out of the draft.

How many people is typical for a dynasty league?

In any type of league, I like 10. Any less and the teams are all too stacked. Any more and there's nothing to pick up in waivers.

We have 12 in our league. Honestly, I really don’t understand it. I was always against fantasy but my IRL friends really wanted me to do it and people have started to moved away, so I figured I should probably start doing things like this just to stay in touch.

We have 2 QB spots, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 2 flex, defense, and kicker. I don’t know how common this set up is. This is my team (2-0 so far)

QBs: Murray, Cousins, Stick (basically cycling through waivers for 3rd QB hoping to eventually land someone that will play)

RBs: Robinson, Pacheco (IR), Pollard, Irving, Perine, Dowdle, Laube

WRs: Chase, Smith-Njigba, Ridley, Addison, Cooks, Atwell, Palmer, McMillan

TEs: Bowers, Henry, Ferguson, Sanders

Our league has a taxi squad which my friend said is I guess like an extended bench for rookies. My team is 2-0 so far so I think I would like to try to win this league if I could. Have the rookie draft picks to trade but not really sure what to acquire or how to value players in this league. Most of my trade suggestions have been laughed at (either for under or over valuing).
