I usually put 3.

Have you ever used the TQB option? That way you get a team's QB? It doesn't change much...obviously you still are drafting the starting QB for that team, but if he goes down mid game, you get the backup's stats too.

I think I tried it once. Just gives you a little security..and it's really kind of an unfair/unfortunate thing when someone gets injured in the beginning of a game and obviously you wouldn't have played him had you known that. Also helps if you have a great QB on IR for a few weeks...and one of your other two TQBs had a bye.

I didn't even know that was a thing lol.


Yeah, it's one of the roster options on espn, just like OP is. They also have head coach and I think you get a point if their team wins (or however many points you make it)....the HC is pretty stupid though.

The Fields drop was just flat out stupid. We need to use faab next season, using a waiver order is such a outdated approach.

I mean...I would have tried if I saw. He's going to be starting as early as next week and is prob going to be a top 10 QB (dual threat ability) Shocking anyone would drop him!

You are currently 2nd (Waiver order), so I thought for sure you would get him.

I think he'd be a great keeper league pickup and maybe a decent pickup for a 3rd string qb in a 2 qb league, but top 10? Little chance of that, and I loved him in the draft, thinking he should definitely be more highly rated after putting up better #s and beating Trevor Lawrence and Clemson in the playoffs.

I’m big on his running ability…I just love dual threat in fantasy. I’m probably way higher on him than everyone else but I love this dude and think he’s going to win a championship in Chicago

I love dual threats too but most of the top 10 are already dual threats. I am very high on him though. I rarely would go for rookie QBs as they have never seen this kind of pressure, at least if they don't sit out a year, but Herbert proved me wrong.

Ha just joking - seems to be a fair trade for both teams. I actually prefer the Deebo side 8-)
