The second flex changed my whole strategy


That's why I didn't want to go big on the 40 dollar WR. Knew there might be some value late. Not much, but some value

I was surprised you didn't go after Baldwin or Moncrief considering where they went.

Say kicker and defence average 12-15/week. 2nd flex may average 10. So we thinking 115 is the new 120?


I think so. We had a high scoring average last year: 125-135.

My guess is 120-130 now.

I thought you said your Top WR was still on the board 3/4 of the way through the draft?

You have possibly the best flex plays in the conference. (outside of Drizz's DT88 and Cobb)

If Rodgers, Zeke and Jordy hit like they can, you'll be in bidness

I had Floyd and decker ahead of Tate and Edelman that's what I meant dh

Floyd is on the verge of #1 wr status and with fitz hurting his time is coming sooner rather than later

Gonna do these 4 at a time


CE

What you like: Strong, unrivaled, RB play. Bench RBs are better than some teams' starters. Russ Wilson. A good QB is important to scoring consistently.

What you dont like: WR, obviously. You got Manny with Semien, what will we get? Desean, Hurns and Floyd can put up big play numbers, but will they be consistent? Lots of mouths on those teams to feed.

Best Value: Decker for $13

Worst Value
: Leaving $5 on the table

-------------------

Tthommy

What you like: 4 WR are nice, if Edelman can stay healthy. Really really like Rawls, I think he will be better than Martin. Snead and Dion are two nice value bench pieces.

What you don't like: Just dont like spending $9 on Ben when QBs like that were going for cheap. Carr for $2 wouldve sufficed IMO, and you could've bolsterd another position.

Best Value: Gore for $6

Worst Value: Rothlisberger for $9

-------------------------

PCT

What you like: Balance. Good team if Nelson rebounds, which will directly affect Rodgers. Speaking of Rodgers, good value considering what he used to go for at his peak. Moncrief and Marvin Jones could sway this team into elite territory if take that step. Fun fact on Ertz - had the 3rd most receiving yards over the last 4 weeks 2015

What you dont like
: Bench isnt great, but most arent. Not sure I like hitching my wagon to Nelson and Rodgers together. It's nitpicky but what if you just threw another $45 player in there for Nelson?

Best Value: Rodgers for $29 (lots of good value as a whole, hat tip)

Worst Value
: Nelson for $45 (see above)

-----------------------

Drizz


What you like
: Very similar team to Ports, two of my favorites tbh. I like the 4 WR, even though I question a guy like DT88. But with the 4, he could slot as a 2nd flex and be fine. We forgot how good Cobb can be, he was a top 10 WR. ARob top 10. Cooper could. Drizz: google rotoworld top 40 Shy Away - they talk about DT88 and Cooper. Not that I agree, but interesting points. Woodhead, Bortles are nice supplementary scorers to those WR - plus you get the Jags double up

What I don't like
: Wanted you to do better on the $1 players to boost that depth. The two TEs are shots in the dark, but both have some talent. Wouldve liked to see you with a Dwayne Allen for a $1 instead of these guys.

Best Value
: Cobb for $39

Worst Value
: DT88 for $40

Drizz got all the WR's that I wanted.

Alum

What you like
: Johnson, Charles, Allen, and Reed. Nice foursome, and barring health, they could be lethal. But, Charles, Allen, Reed all have injury history. But Id be thrilled to see them all stay healthy and see how this team goes. Like Murray down there, too. Bench is solid with upside plays.

What you dont like: For me, I want a more solid WR2. 2nd year guys Lockett and White certainly have the potential, but with those stud RBs and Allen/Reed, give me a $17 WR in lieu of Murray - Baldwin, Crabtree, Gordon, Edelman - couldve been a FAP fest

Best Value
: No real awesome value, but no overpay either

Worst Value
: see above.

-------------------

VKC


What you like
: Brees, Freeman, Green. You landed 3 core pieces to build around. Think there is work to be done, you said as much yourself. Do like that Dolphin cuff and the Deangelo pick. Also Tevin, McKinnon could pay off

What you dont like
: Forte seems like an overpay. Foster looks good but I dont think you have the luxury to take the hit on him if he gets hurt (good job handcuffing). Holy frick though, that WR2 spot. That Forte pick crippled your ability to spend, you dont even need him

Best Value
: Brees for $20

Worst Value
: Forte for $27

----------------------------------

Big Gyne

What I like: Guess it goes without saying - Julio, OBJ, Gronk. Dont think I got value on the WR, but I dont think I overpaid, either. Wasnt my intention to go big again - i actually have a note in my iphoneof the plan i wanted to take lol. I do think there was value on Gronk - posted a Bradin Cooks point total and outscored all RBs except 2 - for $37? I also landed all the cheap RBs i wanted, cant go wrong there. And Crowell in a Hue offense, I think pays dividends for $2.

What I don't like
: getting kelce and the lack of a true WR3. I def dropped the ball on that one. I couldve got in on the same WRs i mentioned for Alum and wouldve made my team look better

Best Value: Gronk at $37

Worst Value: Kelce for $12

----------------------

Paps


What you like: All of Papps starters check the box for me. Solid all around - these guys are some of the most consistent w2w scorers - AP, Marshall, Landry, Tate. Really like the Jennings pick, too. They sleeping on him. Upside on the bench. Nice draft all around

What you dont like
: not much bad to be said. may have went a little high on duke, but other than that, nothing really stands out.

Best Value: Peterson at $41

Worst Value
: Duke at $15

Deebz

What I like
: For starters, your bidding practices. I couldn't pinpoint exactly what your MO was but you were in there gun slingin like a mother frick. I think you can away with a nice squad, decent enough floor but a very high ceiling. You have one of those teams that will go 200 one week and be the highest scoring week of the year.

What I dont like
: Only think I really don't like is Witten without Romo there. You might need to get some Kelce from me. We will talk. Nothing else bad to say, you did good top to bottom imo.

Best Value
: Jeremey Hill ($12) and *Gordon ($18)

*How do people spend on Bell - guy who will miss 3 games, injury history, drug history - then let a talent like Gordon go for peanuts?


Worst Value
: No bad values IMO

--------------------

21JS

What you like
: You killed it on those sub $45 guys. Really, that's textbook Auctioning 101. You just got a slew of pretty good players instead of spending huge on a few. All around pretty solid. I like that Allen steal.

What you dont like
: Risk. Fat Eddie or svelte Eddie, healthy or injured shay, Dak to Dez, Hyde's injury/team, which matt ryan? At their best, they are good. Just know the risk involved. Im not crazy about the bench product but im sure you'll go bananas add/dropping

Best Value
: Cooks for $35

Worst Value
: Lacy for $41 (just higher than I thought)

----------------------

OMT

What you like: another well built team top to bottom. I like the gurley and brown pairing, they could both lead their respective positions. Hell, i think Fleener could too Maclin, Baldwin, Crabtree - those guys are solid. Remember Dalton was like the top QB before he got hurt last season. That actually happened

What you dont like
: RB2. Forsett, I just dont know. That's a crowded backfield, he may lose control of it. Im not totally in on your bench, but I do like getting Ware.

Best Value
: Baldin at $17

Worst Value
: Wanted to say Maclin, but there really isnt much better in that price range.

-----------------

TTT


What you like:
No one really talking about this team, but it's sneaky strong. Cam, Ingram (was RB3 last year when he went down, I believe?), L Murray, Hilton, Olsen - shite that's a nice core. And you cleaned up the bench spots and may have the best bench value in the league- Barnidge, T Benji, Diggs, Sproles. Nice work

What you dont like
: Im wary on Kelvin and John Brown. Great talents, big play type guys. IDK if they possess the consistent w2w production we covet. But as your 2 and 3, it should be fine. Diggs may be that consistent guy you want.

Best Value:
Matthews at $10

Worst Value:
Kelvin Benji at $26 - gimme Jordan Matthews, Tate, Baldwin there for less money

Agree 100%. Not too excited about those guys in a ppr format. Just me being too puss to bid on top 10 WRs at their $ rate and not having enough patience to wait for a couple of guys with similar, if not more, upside & consistency that I could have gotten for a little less. Kind of a panic move on my part once some of the bigger WRs were off the board due to zero draft prep, honestly.

Fair deal that helps us both. Having Jones as my #3 WR helps.

Q Rodgers
R Elliott
R Hyde
W Jeffrey
W Jordy
F Marvin
F Blount/Coats

Nice job, Gyne

hoping some of this upside hits (Devonte, M. Thomas) so I can go stud hunting with my depth.
