You took Bell in the first? Interesting.

Coopers? Do you mean...Amari Cooper?

Good luck with Eli

I have faith in Bell.
Yes, amari.

What's wrong with Eli? I think he gonna be great and i'll take him at the 8th any day.

[Farley1324]

Yeah I'd take him there too. But...he's eli...those dud games

Well I wanted Bree's but was taken like 2 picks before. Was 12th pick and that's why i went rb-rb b/c i had a feeling i'd have good wr's for 3/4.

Eli was the best QB by far available and thought 8th round in a 12 man league was the proper price. I had him last year and won in another league and he did enough to get me many W's.

Winston could light it up this year so will ride pine until he proves he is real

[chevy72blu]

I would snap accept that as well. Although, you should know that I have Cooks ranked quiet a bit higher than Evans.

Even still I think you gave up too much value with Bernard.

Personally I see at as 1 for 1 trade where different people might value them differently. Maybe eventually he would have asked you toss on a lottery ticket RB. FFC has Evans as WR10 and Cooks as WR14, both going in the 2nd round.

This is a good example of where talking to someone about a trade can help you to avoid getting ripped off.

Yeah, I'm worried about Cooks being boom/bust wheras I think Evans' floor is higher. I'm good with a 1 for 1 to trade depth for an improvement in a starter, but of course its speculative at this point. Oh well, we'll see

[Fiz-iks]

Yes, amari.

Wayyyy too early for a QB. Other picks are solid though. Great value with Cooks and Cooper, unbelievable really.

I'd drop Winston as well tbh.

10 team, half point PPR and I pick 5th. Snake draft no keeper. It's a $100 buy in

QB: Eli Manning
RB: Lamar Miller, Jamaal Charles
WR: AJ Green, Jeremy Maclin, Donte Moncrief
TE: Gronk
D/ST: Rams
K: Didnt take one, ill adjust later

Bench: Matt Forte, Jordan Matthews, Duke Johnson, Corey Coleman, Rashad Jennings, Tajae Sharpe, Spencer Ware, Sammy Coates


Notes: Didnt take a kicker, ill drop someone before week 1, Coates was my last pick.

1st round: AJ
2nd: Gronk
3rd: Miller (was shocked)
4th: Charles (again shocked)

I drafted based on talent that fell to me, thought I made out pretty well. Thoughts?

NFL.com prize league. Drafted 7 of 10, standard scoring, 2 RB/2 WR/1 flex

QB- Rivers
RB- David Johnson, Arian Foster, DWill, Ajayi, Alfred Morris
WR- ARob, Evans, Cooks, Marvin Jones, Michael Floyd, Emmanuel Sanders, K Aiken, D Parker
TE- Reed

Overall pretty excited about my team, would like more RB depth so I'm going to look at trade possibilities. Feel like I have enough talent to offer a 2 for 1 for a serious RB upgrade to someone who is WR weak. Thoughts?

[dhawkeye1980]

gonna love my team in my work league $100 buy in

.5 ppr
winston
OBJ, Evans, Floyd, Lockett, travis benjamin, boyd
JC, demarco, hill, ivory, henry

He's being hyped on the yahoo mobile app.

"The 28-year-old Green is a candidate to be this year's later-career breakout at tight end."

Almost 6k adds lol

gronk in the 2nd u wot?

[Jayarbie]

Green definitely isn't a terrible pick if you're waiting till the end to take a TE. Jared Cook is another TE sleeper.

grabbed cooks in another league, i dont usually draft a TE until late anyways

[Gamblorrr]

gronk in the 2nd u wot?

???

[Farley1324]

...isn't the 2nd where Gronk usually goes?

FFC has his ADP as #13 lol

[bullybreed]

...isn't the 2nd where Gronk usually goes?

FFC has his ADP as #13 lol

Especially in a 10 team PPR. It's not like he catches 100 a season. He averages 68 receptions a year if you take away the year he only played 7 games. There are a lot of receivers to take before him in the 1st.

[CGindles]

12 team
Non ppr
1 keeper (mine is Gronk)

Which QBs do you think are worth reaching for in the 3rd and 4th round? Cam and Luck? Rodgers?

Do you lose your 1st round pick for Gronk? If so, I would advise against keeping him.

There is zero QB's that are worth reaching in the 3rd and 4th rounds. Seriously, don't do it.

[CGindles]

I just don't think anyone in my league will be thinking QB and can sneak a huge pick in

nah, draft stays the same. And no one else on my team worth keeping lol.

[CGindles]

Also, I've done a few mocks where I reach for a QB and the team still turns out good in a 12 man. There a ton of value out there this year.

I agree with this. I waited for the QB in 12 man league and ended up with Tyrod ****ing Taylor as my starting QB in 9th round as everyone made a run on QBs in middle rounds.

Need FA/trade advice please .. waiver period is over and I'm thin at RB position ..

My team .. 12 man Half PPR ..

QB: Tyrod Taylor
WR: AJ Green, Keenen Allen, Amari Cooper, Jeremy Maclin, Michael Floyd, Sammy Coates
RB: Jeremy Hill, Danny Woodhead, Jay Ajayi, Charles Sims
TE: Tyler Eifert, Jason Witten
K: Walsh
DST: MIN

FA RBs available:
Tyler Gaffney, DeAndre Washington, Devontae Booker, Chris Johnson, CJ Prosise

I don't think anyone is worth acquiring .. should I go after any one of these and drop maybe Coates/Ajayi?

I am also thinking of trading Maclin/Amari Cooper for Latavius Murray .. I will offer Maclin and see if the guy bites (although Maclin's ADP is higher than Murray on FFC), otherwise I will offer Cooper.

His team
QB: Palmer, Mariota
WR: Hopkins, D. Thomas, Sanders, Diggs, Green-Beckham
RB: Lacy, Murray, Stewart, Henry
TE: Gates

Should I offer the trade?

I wouldn't trade Cooper for Murray. Plus, I doubt he'd do it as that would make him weak at RB. I could see picking up Booker, but that wouldn't be an immediate, week 1 starter for you. I'd find someone who is weak at WR and see if you can get one of their RBs. Maclin and Cooper should be 3rd and 4th round picks so try and target RBs that went in those rounds.

How about Hill and Maclin for Murray? That will give him a RB and he will also get a reliable 3rd option behind Hopkins/Thomas.

Or the other 2 teams with weak WRs are

Team1:
WR: Benjamin, Wheaton, Sanu, Smith Sr
RB: Rawls, R. Mathews, Blount, Forsett, Sproles

Team2:
WR: Nelson, Tate, T. Lockett, Shephard, Parker, T. Smith
RB: D. Johnson, D. Martin, R. Jennings, B. Powell

I am not interested in any of Team1's running backs .. Team2 I can offer Hill and Maclin for D. Martin OR Cooper for D. Martin?

So you're giving up 2 players with higher ADP to get Murray? That doesn't make sense to me. Plus, giving up Hill for Murray is a lateral move in RB strength and you'd get weaker at WR. All in all a bad trade for you. If I was you, I'd try for trading Cooper for Martin. I think both teams would benefit in that trade and ADP should be close with Cooper and Martin.

I expect Cooper to produce really good numbers this year and I'm bullish on Martin this year. For me, it's a pretty even trade. You'd have to do your research on both players and whether or not you think it's fair and will make your team better.
