My wife did an office 10-team league, and since I have no idea how to rate a 10-team league draft, I did the traditional rate my team via FPs

The entire product was changed, with a heavy dose of AI. However, these suggestions were what really caught my eye:

quote:

Adding a high-upside back like Bijan Robinson off waivers could be a game-changer.

A savvy move would be to scoop up Lamar Jackson from free agency to upgrade your QB depth and avoid that conflict. This tweak could elevate your team’s ceiling significantly.


I mean...is it really that easy?

I did the "enter your team and we'll rate it" thing, and I'm guessing maybe they just have geared the ratings towards linking your league to their site? That or shitty AI is the only thing that I could come up with.

I've never seen that feature. Is it on the desktop version?

It wasn't much better when you linked your league. Very off this year - I wasn't happy with my team overall, but it definitely raised an eyebrow when it says things like "Garrett Wilson is a below average option as your #4 receiver".

Our commissioner linked it for our league to check out. I wrote it off when it told me to trade one of Amon-Ra or Marvin Harrison because they have the same bye week while not paying attention to Rome and Devonta Smith on my bench.

Im the exact opposite on ESPN. My team is always picked to finish last and yet I'm always in the playoff.

The predictions are the same this year no matter what. 50/25/0 on percentage to make the playoff with great/decent/terrible management. It's usually 99%/85%/50% in year's past. The FF Tool is messing up and keeps saying you need Pro to use this feature, while saying I have Pro.

Yahoo always gives my drafts a C or lower, and so far I've gotten top 3 payout finishes every single season but one, and that season I was 4th.

I cant get the damn thing to work on my computer and I can't enter it manually since there is no setting for only 1 WR and 1 RB required spot to start, options are 2 or 3
