gotta wonder how Ajayi's knees will hold up to 16 straight weeks of toting the ball 20 times a game

Traded Zeke for Freeman and Sammy Watkins while his suspension was still active. My starting RB and flex are Kareem Hunt, Freeman, and Dalvin Cook

Howard


I have zero sympathy for anyone that drafted him in the first round.


I thought the same thing about Michael Thomas prior to the draft. I know he had a strong finish last year, but I didn't get the 1st round hype for him.

Howard is killing me.


But a lot of players are struggling. By midseason things should be leveling out

this thread is dumb after two weeks


like, antonio brown is mentioned, he's on pace for 128 catches and 1952 yards

all of those guys will be fine save probably Howard

I think Auction drafts should be more common


I did two Auction drafts online one week before the season just for the hell of it. I'd never done one before...

I'll try my hardest to get all my league mates to switch next year. I don't think I can ever do snake draft again after doing auction.

He's played against Rhodes and then Belichick's M.O. is to taken away the other team's number 1 threat. He will be fine.

18th in receptions
12th in yards
10th in targets

1 matchup vs Xavier Rhodes on the road
1 matchup vs NE who Belicheck always gameplans against the other team's biggest threat

Team still put up 130 this week thanks to my pick up of buck Allen to go with hunt.

Once Thomas gets going my team will be nasty

This is like saying Hunt is on pace for 40 TDs.

I think the point he was making is that AB has done well enough in the first 2 games to be on pace for 1900 yards and therefore shouldn't be mentioned as a player that hasn't done well. I would agree.

this thread is for people staring down 0-2 because they dont know how to draft. not because a 1st rd pick might be underachieving

His point is.... He hasn't underperformed,which is the topic of the thread. You know you're good when Rhodes shadows you and you still pull in 5/62.

Good point. I'm 2-0 even though Jordy went out on the first drive last night. 1st rounders may not win your league for you, but if you don't draft well behind them, you're screwed.

I'm just greedy with wanting points. I'd like to see him get rolling though to really push my team along even though I'm 2-0 in that league already
