WR and RB positions are deeper and WRs a little stronger. I kind of prefer a top 4 TE because I think they have a bigger edge and you can skip a standard RB pick and get guys like Gio later who are worth a **** now.
-Basically take advantage of the depth-

And yes I don't see how people don't drop AP more in PPR. Guys like Bell Lacy and Charles should be boosted. Bell should probably be #1 PPR

Bold prediction. Terrelle Pryor ends up being a good WR

I think people that are planning on getting 90% of Kelvin Benjamin's numbers are gonna be sadly disappointed in Funchess. He's not even a starting WR on a run first team

90% is probably high (that would be about 65/900/8) but it's not completely out of the question. He's a big body, and KBenj got 145!! targets last season. Those have to go somewhere besides Olsen, and Philly Brown and Ginn are pretty much garbage men. The opportunity is there.

He's been injured and is a rookie so not starting isn't a death blow.

Umm...Funchess had been so impressive that Ron Rivera considers him go be almost as good as Philly Brown & Ted Ginn.

GOAT.

Was surprised to see 73/1,008/9 for Benjamin. Thought he would have had more yards last year.

Probably an lol Cam thing as that came on 146 targets (6th in NFL).

The only 2 other players in top 40 in targets last year to catch a lower % were VJax & Cecil Shorts.

Not sure what conclusions to draw from that overall, though, other than maybe KB isn't as good as he eyetests?

& that it's quite possible that Funchess can put up ~80% of that production.

I'm not even high on funchess but quick vs Seattle sounds a lot worse

Yeah the targets will go to him. Corey brown sucks ass and Ted ginn jr isn't much better. Olsen will snag a ton (hopefully) but there will be more than plenty to go around to funchess. All the guy literally has to do is get somewhat open. There's a massive size advantage and cam will find him

Stop saying Corey brown. It's philly!!

I wish it was still philly brown because Corey brown blows. I'm supportive of changing back to philly

KB also had a lot of lol drops. Guy made some shockingly awesome plays and a ton of lol dumb ones. He was just a maniac in the red zone and became super valuable because he was the only one to throw to minus Olsen so caught a lot of balls too. I would expect funchess to fill that void this year

Also cam somewhat sucks so a lot of the non catches were launched in the 8th row and no one on earth could have caught them

Are you in jail by any chance? This is your GF posting right?

How did I miss that post initially. the rope a dope QB BLOCKER STRATEGY was indeed executed. Amazing

Didnt post this in the Draft thread because I just want a general evaluation of overall team strength in an unfamiliar setup to me, rather than a pick by pick critique. However, if you think its better to put it there let me know and I will delete this and repost it there.

12 team, full PPR, .5 per QB completion, 1 pt/20 return yards, tons of pass/rush/rec/big play bonuses
QB/3WR/2RB/TE - no flex in this league (we also have 2 IDP positions but whatever)

QB - Stafford, Bradford
WR - Antonio, Green, Evans, Ch.Johnson, Funchess, Lockett
RB - Foster, Spiller, Martin, Gio, Lewis
TE - Donnell

How much do bonuses and return yardage usually factor into scoring?
How does this team look overall?

looks really good to me

I'm considering Charles over Bell. I don't like the 2 game suspension TBH, and Charles will (liklely) catch more TD passes than Bell especially since Steelers offense is much better than Chiefs.

Cooks over Evans in PPR? I mean, Breeze should shower Cooks with targets now that Jimmay is gone.

Got a 500 dollar auction going on ESPN tonight. Have a few spots left. Let me know if interested

Have #1 tonight in a draft (first time in forever). Would you go Bell in a non-PPR? I don't mind the 2-game suspension and his consistency has been amazing.

I took ADP with #1 last night.

Would you drop Sankey, or Fitzgerald for Tevin Coleman in a Yahoo Pro League? WR5 and RB5.

I also could drop one of Rudolph/Ertz but I was planning on cutting Rudolph when Ertz is playing. Could just drop Rudolph now and then cut Coleman/Sankey/Fitz for a TE if Ertz doesn't play. But who to cut?

I want no part of the Titans RB situation so I'd drop Sankey.

id drop sankey too. colemans starting, sankeys splitting with west (doubt a 50/50 split, but hes still gonna get some carries). plus ATLs offense > TENs

And McCluster is in Tennessee as well. Coleman just has Freeman to worry about.

To shed more light on the 40 team league

- League will be composed of 40 teams divided into 4 conferences of 10 with 2 divisions of 5 each. Each team will play a game each week against another team. Teams will play 13 games, playing 8 divisional and 5 non-divisional games. Each conference will have complete NFL rosters.

- 3 teams from each conference will make playoffs, made up of 2 Divisional Winners and 1 Wildcard from each conference. Tie breaker for each category is as follows: overall record, head to head record, then total points scored. If this is also tied, then the following is used: divisional record (if same division), outside divisional record (if different divisions). If there is any disparity on Tie-breaker system, then NFL tiebreakers apply. Ties inside the division are broken before resolving ties outside the division.

- Lucky 13th and 14th Playoff teams will be awarded to teams with highest Total Points scored (regardless of record) of the 28 teams not qualified as Divisional Winner or Wildcard. If there is a tie then overall record then head-to-head will be used. If still tied coin flip will be held.

- Seeding will be based on overall rankings, not simply Wildcard as #10 through #14. Tiebreaker: Overall Record, Head-to-Head (if same conference), Total Points Scored, Coin-flip. Since there is no home field advantage, the goal through the playoffs is for the highest seed to always play the lowest seed surviving.

- $100 entry, site cost subtracted via MyFantasyLeague. 50% to winner and then it trickles down with 2nd-8th getting paid. Divisional winner, wildcard winner, weekly high score, highest points for year, highest points scored against for year, pick em, survivor pool and consolation bracket winners all get a small sliver. I don't love those trinkets that come with it but the old bats in the league like it around to keep interest so it's really all about win or go home for me.

- The Starting Lineup (SL) for each team will be: (2) QB, (2) RB, (3) WR, (1) TE, (1) K, (1) DEF, (1) FLEX (RB or WR or TE).

Scoring:

Passing yards: 0.05 points for each yard passing (1 pt / 20 yds)

Passing TD: 4 points per TD
Rushing TD: 6 points per TD
Receiving TD: 6 points per TD
Receptions: 0.5 point for each 1 reception (1 pt / 2 receptions)

XP (passed/rushed/received): 2 points

Fumble Lost: -2 points (only on offense, not special teams)
Interception thrown: -2 points

Offensive Fumble Recovery for TD: 6 points per TD

Field goals:
<=30 yds: 3 points
>30: 3 points + 0.1 pt per yard distance greater than 30 yards (45 yds = 4.5 points)

Total Points Allowed:
0 4 points (DEF)
1 to 6 3 points (DEF)
7 to 12 2 point (DEF)
13 to 18 1 point (DEF)
24 to 28 -1 point (DEF)

Fumble rec: 2 points (DEF)
Fumble TD: 6 points (DEF)
Sack: 1 point (DEF)
Safety: 5 points (DEF)

<= 70 yards 2 points (DEF)
>=150 yards -2 points (DEF)

Passing Yardage Allowed:
<= 150 yards 2 points (DEF)
>=350 yards -2 points (DEF)

I think that's enough clutter for one night.

There's also the fact that Freeman sucks and should never have been drafted.
