Yup. He's good @ football. All of those things are included in those #s I mentioned from the last 4 years, though, & he's not going to run more as he gets older.

I think there's definitely a point where he provides good value. Just not sure where that point is, & it's easy to overrate where that place is if you look only at last year.

I think some people ITT underrate how much 6-pt passing TDs help Stafford, Cousins, and Ryan.

Funny how it helps all QBs.

False. It only helps QBs who throw passing TDs. Glad I could clear that up

Maybe if the bonuses were multiple points, otherwise definitely no.

This is somewhat true. But last year Matt Ryan was going as the 7th-10th QB off the board he threw 38 TDs last year.

The year before you could have got Bortles or Palmer off of waivers in most leagues, they threw one less TD then Brady to finished tied for second.

While yes having Rodgers, Brady or Brees makes it more likely they will finish top 5 in passing TDs there are guys who are available late who can do the same thing.

I'm also a huge fan of having two QBs to play the matchups. While maybe I have the 6th best and 8th best QBs if you match them up correctly you could have the #3 QB as a team.

Moving to TE
I'm targeting Ertz a lot this year given that they have traded Matthews and think he can get some decent volume.
Besides health concerns, any problem with this line?
Seems like a steal in the 7/8 round.

Also a big Ertz fan. He is going to be the main target in the middle of the field now that Mathews is gone. Love him in PPR, I've been getting him after the 10th round or even later as the 8th or 9th TE off the board.

I know if you pick QB X and QB y and picked the correct games on when to play each you would have QBz, but to make that happen you have to correctly pick 2 QBs who will be serviceable you also have to decide which games to start each. That is a lot of correct decisions you are assuming you are going to make. Also, drafting 2 QBs cuts down rb/wr depth.

TE streaming never seems as easy in practice as people like to make it sound.
Grabbing him in the 7th this year.

Uggghhh TFW in an MFL10 you use your last two draft picks on defenses but didn't realize they both have the same bye week.

Hahaha frustrating/funny thing is that those extra ~10 points (for Goff in the bye) could really make a difference - for all of my winning MFL10 teams, it's either been the case that:

(1) I win with ~2400 points and barely beat the 2nd place team who has ~2390 points, or
(2) I blow every team out of the water with 2600-2700 points

- and there have certainly been more instances of (1) than (2).

i've got ertz borderline top 5 in ppr this year but i think TE is pretty flat this year. i'd rather pass and grab an extra rb/wr then get brate or higbee later on

Gronk's healthy and practicing with no limitations this year.......

When he was healthy last year he put this 4 game stretch up.....

5-109-0
7-162-1
4-93-1
5-109-1

He should be a fist pump 2nd round pick.......

Jordan Howard or Fournette ?

McCaffrey or Lynch ? I'm never getting either of these guys given where they're ranked though.

Montgomery or Mixon ?

Doug Martin or CJ Anderson ? Different tier for me.

Fitzgerald or Pryor ?

Cooks or Baldwin ? No real clue on this one tbh, I'm always picking Gronk ahead of these two.

Tyreek Hill or Martavis Bryant ? Different tier for me.

Keenan Allen or Allen Robinson ?

Tyrell Williams or Devante Parker ? Close one.

Still have some work to do on my ranks, but for now...
