Will probably do Six playoff teams.

Need to know if the group wants to change it up by going with FAAB? There's usually at least one or two people who end up complaining about the waiver order.

We know one for sure.

Tyler durden quit the league because you annoyed the hell out of him

Not what I heard. :rolleyes:

What is FAAB? I don't care about # of playoff teams. I have 8 in another 8 team league to keep people vested the entire season but often times the low ranked teams have one good week in the playoffs and knock off a top team. So I'm fine with 6 or 7.

We have it in baseball fantasy leagues. Everyone gets $100.00 budget for the season. You use that to purchase free agents throughout the year. So another words when Jack is always #1 on the waiver wire, its meaningless. You can out bid him for the same player.

That's right.

If you have a RB injury & want/need his replacement, then you can make a bid for him.

Whereas with waivers, you might have no shot at claiming him.

I prefer FAAB myself.

Time to get my energy up for the draft. The annual Labor Day barbecue is now taking place !!! Fresh garden vegetables with barbecued seasoned chicken that has been soaking in buttermilk for 48 hours. :offtopic:

The draft is open & the order is now set!

Post #169 » by **bwgood77** » Tue Sep 3, 2024 2:01 am

Teams are pretty stacked. I probably should have gone for another WR instead of adding RBS when I was getting flex and bench, but that's my only problem. I never have Kelce, but glad to get him with my 5th pick.

Then we had the 2 autopick teams. It always hurts in 2qb leagues with autopick because they won't draft a QB for you because with everyone taking QBs, those left are way down in the rankings below a lot of flex players. However, Duke and OT have a ton of crazy good WRs. DOT has Tyreek Hill, Justin Jefferson, Puka Nacua, DaVante Adams, Deebo Samuel Jr, Chris Godwin and Amari Cooper. Duke has Amon Ra St Brown, Ja'Marr Chase, Michael Pittman Jr, Mike Evans, Malik Nabers, Courtland Sutton (now #1 in Denver) and Jordan Addison.

There are still at least 2 solid starting QBs on waivers too for them to get.

Jack, once everyone has 3 QBs (I set my 8 team 2qb league for 3 max for draft), it might be good to switch it to 4. That's what I do. When I know everyone has 3, 4 works because with injuries/byes, people can have more depth if they want.

But either way is fine. With 32 teams, theoretically everyone could have 4 starting QBs or if they wanted a handcuff.

Duke is loaded at WR.

He auto-drafted. That's why he only has 1QB.

Guys like Stafford and Goff are on the wire.

And then there are a few scrub QB's like Mayfield, Geno, Danny Dimes and Russell Wilson. Bo Nix also there who I would take a shot on. With Duke's loaded WR group, he doesn't need much from his QB's. I didn't realize how loaded he was till I looked at his team this morning. I mean damn, two top 8 players over all. Actually he also has some elite trading power should he take that route. I love St. Brown. If Duke wanted to improve other areas I would listen to trade offers if St. Brown was on the table. If I didn't already have Tee Higgins I would also be very interested in hearing trade offers for Ja'Mare Chase.

Totally got sidetracked and lost all track of time

I think the computer did a good enough job of drafting for me though.

I would have taken more QBs if it allowed for more than 3.

I plan on changing it to a max of 4 when Duke & Dot settle on their three.

Sounds great - I would love to load up on QB's so I can limit what you all can use

My bad for missing the draft. Had a late afternoon scare with the dog and was 100% focused on that and completely forgot about the draft.
