Sometimes I like to intentionally pair elite QBs, especially the rushing QBs, with elite pass catchers of other elite QBs as leverage.

Josh/AJB
Lamar/Kincaid
Hurts/Kincaid
Josh/Zay
Hurts/Zay
Etc.

If AJB goes off to get to your the finals, then Hurts is probably coming with him for a lot of chalk, especially since that pairing is easy. Then in the finals, what if something like Hurts for 250 passing and 2 TDs with 150 and 2 TDs going to AJB while Josh rushes for 100 yards and 2 TDs? Obviously, it's nicer when you can stack the offsetting elite QB to give more outs, and at least you were able to get Curtis.

But if I'm taking someone like AJB, Kincaid, Andrews, etc. without Hurts, Josh, Lamar, then I want a QB than can compete with the others in an upside result.

No idea if this is the correct way to think about it, but it makes sense to me.

I'll tell you one thing I'm done doing is taking unstacked Mahomes in the middle to late 5th hoping to get Worthy or Rashee coming back. Rashee is steaming, and I have too much unstacked Mahomes.

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Honestly might try doing that occasionally now

Went with the strategy of focusing on stacks and correlation for the first 8 or so rounds. The plan was to go Lamar/Murray, but someone took Murray in the 5th which is the earliest I've seen him go. So I had to pivot to Caleb.

I know I miss out on some good players with this strat, but it's fun, and I think it has some potential.


QB - Lamar, Caleb

RB - Kyren, Mixon, Hubbard, Herbert, Laube

WR - Harrison, Terry, Lockett, Sutton, Shakir, Gabe, Tez, Jennings, Metchie

TE - Andrews, Kemet, Jonnu, Higbee


Oh, and the guy that took Murray went with the double handcuff. He drafted Breece+Braelon and Cousins+Penix and played Goff naked.

Rb is a little weak. I’d have taken another rb over the 4th te

This team is extremely thin behind Mixon.

Harrison is your only big time receiver. I think Terry will have slightly over a thousand yards and 5 TDs like usual. It could be worse with a rookie QB who likes to run. Also, that's a bad offensive line. The rest of the guy's are ok but I just don't see how they are gonna win you a millie. A lot would need to happen for Jennings or Metchie to be relevant.

I assume Metchie and Higbee were drafted for correlation purposes. I'm not a fan of forcing correlation.

I love the Lamar/Andrews stack.

I'd like this team a lot more if you had some legit upside RB's.

If Kyren and Mixon stay healthy the whole year this team could be fine.

Been out of this thread and FF in general the past month but coming in with a hot take.

Auiyk is the best value right now and it's not even close. Mid 2nd dropping to late 3rd.

Reason he's either resigning with the 49ners so value( I belive this is the most likely scenario, very strong contending side isn't putting there hopes on a project rookie. If I'm wrong he will not go to a team where he isn't the solid WR1

They were my last 2 picks. I think forcing there is fine when practically everyone at that point is a dart.

But yeah it definitely needs a lot to go right.

Te - Bowers, Schultz

Got sniped on Cook, Shakir, Davis, and Knox when trying to dbl stack Josh lol. I couldn’t get myself to draft Claypool
I drafted ARSB so I put Goff in the cue. Then I drafted J Reed and Watson and put Love in the cue. I accidentally clicked Goff instead of Love. It made me sick to my stomach.

This is a solid squad.

Bowers/Schultz is a nice TE combo. Bowers is starting to move up the ranks pretty quickly.

If you can get Aiyuk in the late third that is great value. I haven't drafted for a couple days but he was going mid second which is a fade for me. There are just too many question marks and too many similar players going around him to take the risk. I'd think the best case scenario is he does go to another team where he can get 150 plus targets.

I was talking more about going into the draft with the plan to correlate.

Got him for the first time at 23 on UD today in a Puppy slow. Paired him with CeeDee then got Saquon at 26. Quite unique, so hopefully I don’t **** it up.

This one started off okay. Got sniped on Lamar, but always had Stroud for a back up.

Unfortunately things went off the rails when I had to step away for about 20 minutes. I tried to set up some auto picks, but it didn't work out well so ended up with only 4 RBs.


QB - Stroud, Watson, Jones

RB - Bijan, Zamir, Singletary, Zeke

WR - Nico, Devonta, Rice, Jeudy, Pearsall, Wandale, Mims, Boyd, Slayton, Jennings

TE - Andrews, Ferguson, Knox

4 projected starters. It could still work.

one guy went with a 2-8-7-3 draft. It was a zero RB. Seems like an interesting strat. I may try on my next one.

I think Kupp is one of the best values on the UD board right now at 30.7. He should be a 2/3 turn pick, and I think he's heading in that direction. I've been trying to take as much as possible right now.

Tee also seems poorly priced at 39.8. He was a 2/3 turn pick last year, and the only downside was injury to both him and Burrow. He is the clear #2 with a great QB and massive spike week potential, who is competing with a 3rd round rookie, a 6th round second year, 2 mid RBs, and a journeyman TE. I'd have more, but there are so many good picks in his price range. Both Devonta and Waddle moved up the board while Tee didn't, and I don't see much difference between the 3. I might have to start taking Tee ahead of ADP, even if I don't enjoy it.

Looks like Kupp is 26.3 on DK, which is more reasonable but still too low, given PPR and bonus points.

Tee at 48.9 on DK is way too low.
