2024 Season Discussion Thread

[Double-Shift Lasse]

I think I set some sort of record over the weekend with two players ejected from their NFL games in Nacua and Brian Branch (IDP league).

Team A: Acquires Justin Jefferson and Tyler Boyd (immediately to waivers)

Team B: Acquires Davante Adams and Chase Brown

Neither of these teams are mine but this trade was just put through. Thoughts on the deal? Team A is 7-2 and has Saquon, Montgomery, Hunt and Rachaad White so they aren’t exactly missing out. Jefferson puts them over the top as the clear championship leader at this point. Team B sucks and is last in the league. My initial thought is to veto it

It's not blatantly unfair although you'd think one of the pieces going to Team B would be a higher tier player. Is Team B going to play Brown every week now?

I’ve somehow managed to be first in points scored and points against in my league. We are through eleven weeks. I should not still be worried about the playoffs. Would love to not play against a top three team every week this season.

Somehow I've wound up with theses guys on a bunch of my teams and with BYEs and injuries have to a couple this week. But I don't think I wanna start the same ones in every league cause then it's pretty much guarantee whoever I sit will go off .

So my question is how would you rank these guys for this week in both PPR and non-PPR:

Michael Pittman Jr.
Jordan Addison
Cedric Tillman
Quentin Johnston*


*only have him in PPR

After starting out 1-5, I have surged to 6-6. hopefully I can squeeze into the playoffs..

Side note, how do you guys deal with inactive/lack of interest players in your league? I picked up a ‘free’ win this week because my opponent left 4 Falcon players in his starting lineup. I don’t think he’s been active since week 3 truthfully.

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.

Interesting looking back at old posts.. Hope you kept Bowers in your lineup! Can’t believe I could’ve had him with my very last pick but went with someone else instead

I indeed have kept Bowers in my lineup! He’s been a fantasy stud for me.

Sat Addison in all 3 leagues. (won 2 of them though and probably won't make a difference in the one I'm going to lose.)

I'm not sure. On one hand it's not the commish's place to set the person's lineup and if you do for fairness? Like who do you decide who to start/bench if it's not obvious? Go based on sites projections? And what if they need to pick up players to fill in for BYEs/injuries? But on the other hand, could have teams competing for a playoff spot get free wins.

ESPN has a setting to put a team on auto, which means the AI will set lineups and even make drop and adds. That seems like the best bet. But I'm not sure if yahoo and other sites offer that.
