It was fun while it lasted, but how hard is it to get the caliber of team where you don't need to do anything other than just sit back and watch your team pile up the points?


Can you ever get there though? MY strategy changes based on the time of year:

Weeks 1-4 Pile up WR and RBs and see who catches on.

Weeks 5-12 make a change here or there depending on needs/injuries. This is trade time, find the weak players or those who have major talent at single spots (2 top 10 QBs, 2 Top 10 TEs). You probably have the RBs or WRs to catch their eye.

Weeks 13-17 Cure your last weak spot (there's always one), shore up on starters for the playoff, settle in and win. Even in this period, who was good at the beginning of the year may not be good now. DT88 looks great, but if Denver is 14-2 heading into the last 3 weeks, I'm not sure he'll continue with 25+ point games.

I just completed a trade, FJax/ J Reed for Rivers/H Hiller to, I think, complete my roster for now. That allowed me to drop Miller and pick up Tre Mason.

My roster isn't as great as some, but I really feel league tells all. I can't see how people can put together a Dez, DT88, Jones Receiving core. In a fairly competitive league:

QBs - Rivers, Ryan
WR - DT88, Garcon, Allen (my weakest area)
RB - Forte, Tate, Oliver, Jennings, Mason, Stacy
TE - Kelce
K - Walsh
DEF - Houston, Arizona

3rd place, just in the right spot to make the right moves to win. I feel that's the sweet spot. Keep Zona around until the Bye, Dropping Stacy after this weekend, etc.

To me the sweet spot is when you're can be comfortable making any move and know that other than injury, your team can churn points and be flexible.
