2018 Fantasy Football General Thread - Page 23 - Fantasy Sports -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Just found out the interesting news that my league voted to flip the snake starting with the 7th round. So the 7th round will go from 12-1, and then 8th 1-12, and so on.

Does that mean Rounds 1 through 6 all go 1 to 12? Sounds like an awfully unfair system.

I took that to mean the first 6 rounds were a normal snake. And then the 7th round where 1 would be leading off 12 leads off instead.

Tyreek Hill this preseason with Mahomes.

14-182-1 on 14 targets in a little over 4 quarters of play.

Watkins

1-15-0 on 7 targets.

I'm thinking all that work was against 2nd string defenders though......still they look like they are on the same page.

You are correct. Peterson got hurt late December and Cook got hurt early October.

Just to put in perspective 'started out slow' means AP was on pace for 1328-8 before he got hot

Dude you might not get him at pick 26. I've been wrong before so I'm not guaranteeing it but my read is this.

Hill fits perfectly with Mahomes. For reference look 2000 Culpepper to Moss. The league hasn't seen as good of a deep threat since Moss. Culpepper threw 33 TDs and 16 INTs. Nearly 4000 yards. Moss had 77-1437-15 that year.

They sent Alex Smith packing after a career year. Who does that? They are building this team around Hill.

Look at Hill's usage. All over the formation. Not just deep routes.

When KC's down in the second half because Mahomes throws 2 picks in the first half and they will be......it's going to be a lot of targets for Hill.

Tyreek just went for over $9 more than his avg. auction price.

The secret is out...

Yeah Tyreek in round 3 of 12 team leagues isn’t happening anymore. If you want him you gotta pick him in the 2nd.

Yeah, when I just sorted my auction draft by price, Tyreek was the equivalent of pick #21.

Here is a quote from one of these pros:

"It is the same for me as it would be if they were four points per touchdown. My strategy at quarterback is to target efficient throwers, and efficient throwers generate touchdowns. Additionally, late-round quarterbacks get as many points for their touchdown passes as the early-round guys, so there's no true incentive for me to deviate from my general strategy of waiting at the position."

I want to tweet at that guy and tell him late round RBs get as many points for their rushing TDs as the early round guys and the same for WRs, TEs, DEFs and K so why draft at all.

If you don't believe 6 points for pass TDs should alter your draft strategy that is fine, but the bolded part of his statement shouldn't be your reason why.

Except that anyone who'd reasonably be drafted in a 1QB redraft league isn't throwing less than 20 touchdowns, or anyone is projecting Godgers to have 40+ TD passes. His point is that everyone draftable is going to be throwing enough touchdowns that the 1-2 point per game differential isn't going to alter projections significantly

Fournette looked really good last night. The passing down work is very encouraging. I wish they'd trade for Bridgwater and bench Bortles.

A question for defense streamers.

Who are you targeting in the draft for week one? I'm thinking PITT, NO and BALT look good. JAX and MIN too but they likely go earlier.

I'm never picking D early enough to get Jags or Rams or Vikings, if the opportunity comes up I go Baltimore, you can be among the last one or two to pick a defense and get Steelers. If all else fails, Detroit.

Correct. 1-6 are normal 1-12 snake. Starting in round 7 it flips so the #12 slot gets the 1st pick in rounds 6 and 7. Then #1 gets the 1st pick in the 8th round.

I took Decker in a couple of my 12 man, 20 round best ball leagues. Is that bad?

I have one team with him and bridgewater. MN pride baby.

Have a league dilemma I would like some input on.

Dynasty league transfers sites. Commish manually inputs the rosters into the new sites, posts screenshots he took of the rosters after week 16 last year and asks everybody to double check their rosters to ensure they are correct. After the draft, an owner notices that one of his players didn't get moved properly (was given somebody with a similar name) and said player was drafted.

Owner is SOL, yes?

ETA - The player was taken at 3.07 of a five round draft (10 team).

The new league was created about two weeks prior. All owners had joined and had there teams moved over with the first 4-5 days.

2 out of Fournette, Hunt, DHop, OBJ, Gordon, Julio, Gronk, McCaffery assuming none of the normal top 7 drop.
