Our league is butt.

You know how I know our league is butt?

My shitty team that I hate is in fourth place.

Hey Guys,

I screwed up. I meant to drop Wendell Smallwood in waivers and accidentally dropped Alshon Jeffery by accident. Can I please have this corrected? Obviously, i would not have dropped Jeffery. He is killing it for me.

I don't hate guys that get hurt - I hate guys that I draft #2 overall and refuse to show up to work.

I don't hate Fournette for getting hurt, I hate the Jaguars for lying about his status for multiple years at this point.

Normally don't do this, but I need some help!

Currently sweeping my leagues (1st place in all of them), but two of them I have important matchups and w/ BYEs and injuries and bad matchups, I'm struggling to find a lineup.

*12-team leagues, standard scoring, waiver wire is completely picked over

Team1 (Odd lineup configuration. Straight up high points overall --> no head to head each week)

QB Goff or Stafford?
RB1 Kamara
RB2 S Barkley
WR1 E Sanders
WR2 G. Allison
Flex1 J. White
Flex2 Ingram (bad matchup)/J. Richard/Traquan Smith/Anthony Miller
TE T. Burton or OJ Howard?

Ingram seems obvious but against MN run defense, idk. Anthonly Miller is a sneaky sleeper. I've read a lot of breakdown on how Trubisky is just barely missing him on deep balls, he's playing out of the slot, and has a fantastic DB matchup this week (plus A Robinson is unlikely to play).

Team 2 (Head to head)

Play TJ Yeldon or Mostert or C Thompson?

Goff is gonna put up points

I'd go with Trequan Smith over your other flexes.

Go with Burton. The Biscuit still likes him

Can't help you on the team 2 thing.

Put up a straight demonic score on GK with the Thursday night games

Hopkins - 23.2
Fuller - 20.9
Drake - 22.5

66.6

Also probably lost Fuller for the year, so that's what happens when you flirt with a score the devil would like.

Thanks.

I like Trequan a lot. #2 WR on a team with Drew Brees is very enticing. I kind of like Richard more at the moment. The Colts haven't been bad against the run, but they have given up some yardage to pass-catching RBs. Also, they're likely to get out ahead of the Raiders thus forcing Richard into a solid game script. This might be a coin toss for me.

Team 2, I'm sticking with Mostert unless Breida plays. Then I'll play Yeldon out of necessity.

James White, TJ Yeldon, Leonard Fournette

The issue I have with the trade you guys made (besides being ridiculous) is that there is no way anyone is going to inherit bkess's team in the event he decides not to play next year. No one is taking on a team down a 2nd round pick. I know you are going to say "of course I'm playing" but things happen and we are playing in a league with essentially people we don't know.

(For those who haven't seen yet, bkess traded a 2nd round pick next year for James White and a 9th.)

I think that's a good rule.

If you're offloading draft picks in favor of "Win Now," you should have to be paid up to ensure that you're managing that same team next year to deal with your roster and draft.

Not that I think you'd cut-and-run, bkess, I just think it's a fair play thing.

That works for me. I think it's only necessary if someone is trading away Round 1-4 picks. We don't need to worry about it for anything less serious than that.

Glad to see I started an uproar this morning. I will be happy to pay the fee.

Yeah, in my league the blame falls on Brees and Kyle Shannahan for saying Breida would be "limited" and then giving him 16 attempts to Mostert's two...2!! I'm in first and going to lose to the last place team this week.

Kareem Hunt up for grabs for anyone in the playoff hunt. Looking for a strong keeper. Needs to happen tonight because I'm leaving for my honeymoon in the morning

Wish that was the case but I played the wrong damn QB this week and Army's team is unbeatable!

You were playing me, and I'm really glad that New England (1) passed the ball to Josh Gordon on the last drive, as that last catch got me a win in another league, and (2) decided to run Patterson rather than White.

The Fantasy Gods have smiled upon my crappy team in the IE league for some reason. It's gonna fall apart any day now.
