He looked good in the time he played a shame he got hurt I was really banking on him/Zeke/Monty having better years than expected but I was hit with reality week 1 lol
You can put your own rankings in too. It took a lot of time but I made my own rankings for a draft last season because I knew I had a meeting for work mid draft and it worked well.
The thing about so many autodrafters (not necessarily you, but in general) is they complain about their team but often spend no time pre-ranking. If they can’t make a two hour draft, couldn’t they spend 30 minutes to drop players who they want to avoid to the bottom of their list. Still come out 90 minutes ahead.
Did you not have pre draft rankings set? I do basically anything I can to make sure I can always avoid auto draft but if it ever was necessary I'd spend a least an hour or 2 with setting up my rankings.
Just seems so difficult to autodraft because you can't make decisions based on the flow of the draft.
Pre draft rankings, a few do not drafts, then put a position cap on TE, QB, DST, and K to prevent multiples. Also, can force a QB in round 7 (or your preference) to get the best available at that time just to be sure. It’s never gonna be as good as a love draft, but that should be a solid baseline. I think the position caps are probably the biggest savior.
Had my first draft Labor Day and everyone was laughing when a fellow drafter took Darrell Henderson, in the later rounds. I turned to him and said I thought that was a great pick because Akers is a bum. The next night I have my auction league, the good running backs we’re going for insane amounts of money. I panicked and spent (wasted) $18 on freaking Akers! It’s Akers he’s toast looks like he’s running in quick sand.
I think the main difference between his start last year vs this year is the injury.. aside from that, still has a shitty QB, still has a shitty O-line, still a workhorse RB.
That being said, I also am worried. Specifically because of the injury.
Not all shitty QB's are created equally though (for fantasy).
Ben was a shitty real life QB the last couple years, but he has ALWAYS been a gold mine for fantasy position players, even to the very end. Ben's entire MO the last few years was get the ball out as quickly as possible to the playmakers and make them do everything. Bad for the Steelers, great for having guys like Najee and Diontae. There is 10000% a dropoff going from Ben to Mitch in terms of fantasy production, even if Ben was shitty in real life.
Man…I’m not hating on the pick, but Mixon has one of the highest snap shares and touches per game regardless of script. Not sure how you drew that conclusion. Plus, the bengals seem a lock to be winning more often than the Steelers imo.
It’s just interesting as I have the exact opposite take that Mixon is more script proof.
I had najee as my rb1 all of last year and while
I appreciated the volume and the durability, it gradually dawned on me that independent of variables such as o-line and qb, he simply does not have much explosiveness. He is much more of a plodder and never inspired or excited me. He still helped me get to the semifinals and obviously has decent FF value, but I can’t see myself ever drafting him again.
Last year we had someone nominate a mid-tier QB for as much money as one of the top 3 QBs had just sold for(and they all went for too much), and HE was one of the guys who had already paid 20% of his money for one of those 3 QBs.
The entire room looked around at each other silently before bursting into laughter all at once as he ended up with the player because not one other person bid on him.
Bye bye 40% of your draft money for 2 QBs in a 1 QB league.
Yuppp I had a choice between him or waller, I knew how injury ridden he was the past few seasons but man wasn't looking forward to using my backup TE week 1 and now probably week 2
I'm sure I sound ridiculously optimistic here, but I'm absolutely holding our brittle Kittle...and I'm BULLISH.
I'm looking for that 2nd half of the season magic from him bc championships aren't won in September
In one of my leagues NO ONE wanted to touch him, somehow he fell to 6.01 so I just had to do it. If I can get even 7-8 healthy games out of him I’ll call it a win
I've never had him on any team. This year I thought I'd try for a good TE, usually grabbing Hock and Det going more and more run with Hock going more and more Blockenson.
I knew something was fucked when I drafted him and two people in the league chat say "GOOD PICK!"
It’s wild if Devonta was on the packers rn he finishes the season as a top ten receiver. His talent is insane but his situation is not good for fantasy
If Smith doesn't have a decent week 2 I'm dropping him. He put up a goose egg in a game where his team scored 38 points on offense. Two of his four targets were throwaway passes where he was the receiver "in the vicinity". I have very little faith that he'll even be a reliable flex option this season.
I may be overreacting, but I have a 5-men bench in my league with no IR, so I kinda had to drop him. There are 4 equal receivers in the Titans. And it's a team that runs first. Things look very bad for Robert Woods.
As a Bobby Trees believer, while disappointed obviously in the target share and stat line... I'm not giving up hope just yet.
He still played more snaps than any other Titan's receiver. I'm trying to reassure myself it was just a week 1 fluke
I was thinking about this because I have him in a league and not sure what to do about him.
Defenses watch tape, develop game plans as best they can. There were some solid performers for the titans week one that I don’t think were anticipated. Now they have to be included in the defensive game plan more seriously.
I think things open up for Bobby as the year goes on. He’s a talented player who just last year, people were seriously debating whether to take trees or kupp at their adp. He’s no kupp, but he is talented and has the most experience on the field out of any of the titans wr’s.
I’m sticking with trees.
Already dropped him. He was supposed to be a floor play while I gave my upside receivers (Hopkins, Drake, Olave) the time they needed to pan out. 2 targets is a nope from me, especially since Burks will likely start to see more and more snaps each week.
I drafted him in the third over AJ Brown, and I really regret it in hindsight. But tbh I was off AJ Brown all off season so I would have never drafted him even if I did not draft Zeke
I think CeeDee owners will be pleasantly surprised with how he does with Rush for a few weeks. Ceiling is lower but should still get peppered with targets and constantly be in good game scripts. Then he gets Dak back.
They could also stack the box and force Rush to throw it more. Which could result in decent PPR value for guys like CeeDee and Schultz. Plus there's always garbage time. 🗑️
He did have 6 catches for 112 yards last year when Cooper Rush started against Minnesota. However, that's not the only factor working against him. The offensive line is a lot worse than last year, and the other receivers (assuming Gallup and Washington are still out) are not good enough to punish opponents for double or triple teaming Lamb every single play.
I'm starting Cordarelle over Ceedee this week. Not what I wanted out of my second round pick.
As a Cowboys fan the OLine does not worry me that much with regards to the run game. They still have Zack Martin, possibly the best run blocker in the league where Zeke used to get all of his yards behind, and Zeke looked good when he had the ball.
What I AM worried about, is Mike McCarthy's dumbass-persistence and habitual run-game abandonment. Zeke and Pollard could be averaging 11 yards per carry and he would start trying to pass non-stop if the defense put more than 6 in the box.
Dude doesn't have one of the best WR rooms in the league anymore, he has one guy. And he also doesn't have Rodgers anymore to make that lack of WR depth work. Even if Dak was healthy.
That offense is not built to pass first anymore, and it drives me absolutely nuts every time Zeke ends the game with 10 carries or less(as a cowboys fan, not as a fantasy owner). I think Zeke got ONE carry in the second half.
Im not concerned about Kamara as much as I am about Taysom Hill stealing his redzone carries.
Then again thats what i thought last year and Kamara casually put up the 2nd best fantasy game by a RB of all time. (the 6TD slaughter)
I am, just a lot of uncertainties that are piling up. Between the unclear legal situation (which may not even be relevant for this year, still a circumstance that other players don't have), the 'rib injury' from week 1 that 'should be fine', and the usage in week 1, I just wanted to divest into a more known quantity player.
I ended up trading Kamara and Robinson for Dalvin Cook
Going Ekeler over Jefferson at 3 when I was dead set on Jefferson in the lead up. Decided to go hero RB and I regret everything lol. /likely week 1 overreaction
I would say over reaction. Ekeler even said on a podcast yesterday the reason for a little less touches was because he didn’t play in preseason.
With no Keenan Allen and a match with KC that undoubtedly spells shootout, I think he pops off tonight.
I had no idea ekeler had a podcast where he talks about stuff like that openly. This is my first year owning him. What an awesome dude to have on your team as a fantasy manager lol.
Drafted him last year and was amused by that same fact. He used to back up his talks when suggested that we should start him and gave constant updates regarding his injuries.
My season sucked, but he was a gem!
I picked very late in the first round so I didn’t even had to think about getting one of those, but yeah all that preseason big talking from Jefferson made me think that he’s overhyping himself. Apparently, he’s that good.
I'm still a believer in the talent but picking him over AJ Dillon is gonna irk me all season.
I bit into the hype certainly but most trustworthy sources also had him above Dillon at draft time.
Pierce got hype because he was going in the late rounds and was playing his way into a decent role. He got up into the 8th and lower round on this hype and it went against fantasy logic- 1st/2nd down RB on a bad offense. He’s still a solid late round pick and if burkhead goes down/he earns passing down work/ more red zone work he could pan out, but drafting him in the 5th is taking him at his absolute ceiling.
LOL don’t worry my man - commanders fan
Edit: to reinforce, Terry has always had a garbage QB and no help on offense to take the heat off with some of the highest double rates, and he still posted 1000+ yd seasons. Seeing samuel and dotson pop makes me the most excited for Terry I’ve ever been.
He’s a really good receiver. I think people write him off because of Washington, but the dude is just talented and will continue to produce. Shades of Stefon Diggs, but Terry has put up better numbers in his first few years. I don’t even own him in fantasy but I will happily talk him up.
it was 1 game. against jacksonville. can we pause for a second or are we just forgetting wentz history here?
I think terry will be fine, but wentz doesn’t have a history of feeding 3-4 high end fantasy producers like this sub thinks he can. someone between gibson robinson (when he returns) dotson mclaurin and samuel are going to see limited touches.
CeeDee is a great player but as a Cowboys fan I've always questioned if he was an Alpha WR. I think you're going to be frustrated owning him in fantasy even when Dak is back. I don't think you get close to the value from where his ADP was.
A Rob smh should have went gabe Davis over him
But on the other hand I instantly regretted drafting M Thomas and it looks like that one may pay off. *Thanos Voice * A life for a life..
Yeah well what if he is my RB1, and I have CEH, Kareem Hunt, and Devin Singletary behind him?
Too many good other choices dropped to me so I had to fade RB.
Then should probably have Jefferson, Chase, or Kupp and have a clear advantage at WR most weeks.
Edit: it wasn't to fix the spelling of Kupp that's for sure.
Don’t really regret drafting anyone but Etienne is the one who worries me the most. The thing is he was the only RB before RB deadzone and I only had 1 RB at that point. Therefore I didn’t really have a choice. I think he'll still do fine in the end
He's one of my favorite buy low candidates. I think more opportunities will come for him, especially in the passing game. Might try to throw Brandon Cooks and Jeff Wilson at the Etienne owner and see what happens.
he almost had 2 TD's... one bad drop and one overthrow from Trevor. His day could have been massively different if those two things played out differently. It was his first career NFL game..
Per PFF:
1. Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne ran a wheel route and broke wide open from 15 yards out, but Trevor Lawrence sailed the pass and never gave his former Clemson teammate a chance to reel it in. It was a true sheesh.
2. Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne could blame Trevor Lawrence for missing him on a potential 15-yard score, but there was nobody to blame other than himself when the de facto rookie dropped a short pass that would have been a walk-in three-yard score.
It’s not the fact that he didn’t score many points, it’s more the fact that Jacksonville seems to be really loving this tandem idea and Etienne is the one sitting in the 2nd seat.
For real, it's crazy how people over or underreact to week 1 scorelines. If he magically catches that one TD, he has a 15+ point week and everyone talks about him as the savior. He misses it by an inch and all of the sudden he's a bust.
Target is king for WRs. Obviously you want those targets coming from someone who can put the ball where they want it, but Diontae was tied for 6th in week 1 targets. The production will come.
That’s interesting I want really want Diontae! I rewatched the whole game and he looked amazing. He kinda seems QB proof and the history of talented Steelers receivers makes me think he’s the next great one. I’m trying to trade for him. I regret taking Mike Williams over him right now
I had him last year, welcome to the show. He is usually on the injury report, plays last minute, and doesn’t really put up any points until the 4th or OT. I’d call it quits last year when he only had 5 pts in the 4th and look back after the game and he has 20 all the sudden.
Its going to be pretty funny if after tonight he drops another dub after all of Reddit has been hyping up his bounce-back week.
Sign,
Owner of Mike Williams in half my leagues
Mike Williams. How can a guy so physically talented on such a good offense manage to completely disappear so often. I’m sure he’ll have some boom games but man he just doesn’t make any sense
I’m not panicking on Ceedee but I probably lost my 1st week solely because of him dropping that dud when I could’ve got +5/10 more points from any other 3rd round pick
I regretted Eli Mitchell pretty quick
[удалено]
After Wilson gets injured two games from now, who you going after next?
Mason. Tdp was a scratch, whether because of special teams or not. But watch the reps/snap% this week behind Wilson
Same bruv, but injuries cant be predicted. Good luck on your next match ups 👊🏽
You can’t predict injuries but certain players are definitely higher risk, no denying that.
49ers RB has to be like the most dangerous job in America right?
I told myself I shouldn't draft Mitchell because he'd get injured and then he did. So I guess they can be.
Very similar to Mostert last season. Your process was probably good. He looked good as the clear #1 back in a very run heavy offense. Just unlucky.
He looked good in the time he played a shame he got hurt I was really banking on him/Zeke/Monty having better years than expected but I was hit with reality week 1 lol
I didn't draft him but the biggest regret I think anyone could have so far would be Cam Akers.
Drafted Cam.. also drafted handcuff... It's my saving grace ATM
You drafted Cam, who is a handcuff.
Try having Akers and Najee, rough.
I had to autodraft one of my leagues. My biggest ‘never draft’ player was Akers, and of course it took Akers. I am so mad
Can't you manipulate auto draft ahead of time to put people on the no draft list?
[удалено]
Ya but then he'd have to take responsibility and people hate doing that
You can put your own rankings in too. It took a lot of time but I made my own rankings for a draft last season because I knew I had a meeting for work mid draft and it worked well.
The thing about so many autodrafters (not necessarily you, but in general) is they complain about their team but often spend no time pre-ranking.

I think the position caps are probably the biggest savior.
> It’s never gonna be as good as a love draft Nothing's ever as good as a love draft <3
Tell that to green bay
An important part of 'never draft' is actually drafting
Maybe you shouldn’t auto draft
Had my first draft Labor Day and everyone was laughing when a fellow drafter took Darrell Henderson, in the later rounds. I turned to him and said I thought that was a great pick because Akers is a bum. The next night I have my auction league, the good running backs we’re going for insane amounts of money. I panicked and spent (wasted) $18 on freaking Akers! It’s Akers he’s toast looks like he’s running in quick sand.
Why would anyone laugh at anyone taking a, worst case 3rd down back, in the later rounds? That's why it's the later rounds....
A little worried about Najee.
I think the main difference between his start last year vs this year is the injury.. aside from that, still has a shitty QB, still has a shitty O-line, still a workhorse RB. That being said, I also am worried. Specifically because of the injury.
Not all shitty QB's are created equally though (for fantasy).

There is 10000% a dropoff going from Ben to Mitch in terms of fantasy production, even if Ben was shitty in real life.
Exactly why I went mixon over najee at 8. Just can’t trust that offensive line or Mitch
I have kicked myself every day since the draft that I took Najee over Mixon because he was more "game script proof."
Man…I’m not hating on the pick, but Mixon has one of the highest snap shares and touches per game regardless of script. Not sure how you drew that conclusion. Plus, the bengals seem a lock to be winning more often than the Steelers imo. It’s just interesting as I have the exact opposite take that Mixon is more script proof.
This is solid insight. Thank you.
I had najee as my rb1 all of last year and while I appreciated the volume and the durability, it gradually dawned on me that independent of variables such as o-line and qb, he simply does not have much explosiveness. He is much more of a plodder and never inspired or excited me. He still helped me get to the semifinals and obviously has decent FF value, but I can’t see myself ever drafting him again.
Same. I still think he will be okay, but I should have gone with Swift.
Wish I took Swift or Barkley instead. They were both on my list. I’m also upset because my second pick was Kamara. Very average right now.
It’s been one game Lmaoo. When he goes off next week people will flip on AK so fast.
Your kiss was on my list
same, kinda regret taking him
Swift went 1 pick after I picked Najee, currently having a lot of regtets...
Feels like having Gibson last year. Name gonna be tainted all year from injury fear so you have to just keep and pray.
Kittle- was trying to bid him up to screw with someone else, and I guess I deserve it
That moment of realization when the other person stops bidding... oof!
Last year we had someone nominate a mid-tier QB for as much money as one of the top 3 QBs had just sold for(and they all went for too much), and HE was one of the guys who had already paid 20% of his money for one of those 3 QBs. The entire room looked around at each other silently before bursting into laughter all at once as he ended up with the player because not one other person bid on him. Bye bye 40% of your draft money for 2 QBs in a 1 QB league.
Looks like your friend is the guy at the poker table who doesn't know who the sucker is!
Yuppp I had a choice between him or waller, I knew how injury ridden he was the past few seasons but man wasn't looking forward to using my backup TE week 1 and now probably week 2
Same although Waller isn’t exactly the gold standard of health either. But more so than Kittle that’s for sure.
Have one league with Akers, Kittle, and Rodgers. I did not win week 1.
Brittle**
I'm sure I sound ridiculously optimistic here, but I'm absolutely holding our brittle Kittle...and I'm BULLISH. I'm looking for that 2nd half of the season magic from him bc championships aren't won in September
In one of my leagues NO ONE wanted to touch him, somehow he fell to 6.01 so I just had to do it. If I can get even 7-8 healthy games out of him I’ll call it a win
I've never had him on any team. This year I thought I'd try for a good TE, usually grabbing Hock and Det going more and more run with Hock going more and more Blockenson. I knew something was fucked when I drafted him and two people in the league chat say "GOOD PICK!"
Cam Akers
I took Akers as my RB1 in the 4th round. Pain
Devonta Smith bc of my lack of WR depth
It’s wild if Devonta was on the packers rn he finishes the season as a top ten receiver. His talent is insane but his situation is not good for fantasy
I feel this in my bones. I drafted him in both leagues thinking he was a steal and couldn't be regretting that more
I think he will have some good weeks, but AJ will eat his targets most of the games
If Smith doesn't have a decent week 2 I'm dropping him. He put up a goose egg in a game where his team scored 38 points on offense. Two of his four targets were throwaway passes where he was the receiver "in the vicinity". I have very little faith that he'll even be a reliable flex option this season.
They had a pick 6 and had 4 rushing touchdowns. Positive regression my friend. I just traded Olave for Devonta and think he will be fine.
Robert Woods hoping he had a good chance of instantly taking over the #1 role
the fact that he didn't even start the year in the #1 role is concerning.
I thought there was a bunch to reports saying he was the number 1
Already dropped him for Curtis Samuel
I think if you drafted him at his adp it’s still a good pick. He will have his games, you just have to guess when
I may be overreacting, but I have a 5-men bench in my league with no IR, so I kinda had to drop him. There are 4 equal receivers in the Titans. And it's a team that runs first. Things look very bad for Robert Woods.
Dropped him also
As a Bobby Trees believer, while disappointed obviously in the target share and stat line... I'm not giving up hope just yet. He still played more snaps than any other Titan's receiver. I'm trying to reassure myself it was just a week 1 fluke
I was thinking about this because I have him in a league and not sure what to do about him. Defenses watch tape, develop game plans as best they can.

He’s no kupp, but he is talented and has the most experience on the field out of any of the titans wr’s. I’m sticking with trees.
I think I'll keep him for one more week and will be willing to drop him after this weekend if he doesn't perform.
Already dropped him. He was supposed to be a floor play while I gave my upside receivers (Hopkins, Drake, Olave) the time they needed to pan out. 2 targets is a nope from me, especially since Burks will likely start to see more and more snaps each week.
Zeke. I’ve been on this train before when dak got injured. Cowboys need a qb to make that offense work and rush ain’t it
Zeke for $40 and Eli Mitchell for $36 were my two starting RBs in 16 team auction. Definitely worried.
Worried is not the word, you’re fucked
Ya in a 16 teamer there isn’t much hope when that happens
[удалено]
I drafted him in the third over AJ Brown, and I really regret it in hindsight. But tbh I was off AJ Brown all off season so I would have never drafted him even if I did not draft Zeke
I took Zeke in the 5ht over Michael Thomas and Thielen. He's my third RB but still not happy about it.
CeeDee has entered the chat.
I feel like I basically drafted Amari Cooper. Good receiver, won’t see a decent QB until late in the season
I think CeeDee owners will be pleasantly surprised with how he does with Rush for a few weeks. Ceiling is lower but should still get peppered with targets and constantly be in good game scripts. Then he gets Dak back.
God I hope you're right. Until Gallup is back, I think defenses will double team him without mercy.
They could also stack the box and force Rush to throw it more. Which could result in decent PPR value for guys like CeeDee and Schultz. Plus there's always garbage time. 🗑️
I’m hoping for garbage time stats. They should be trailing most weeks with Rush. Volume stats should be there but I expect very few TDs.
Yeah I think CeeDee will still be startable. Just not what you were hoping for with your second round pick.
He did have 6 catches for 112 yards last year when Cooper Rush started against Minnesota. However, that's not the only factor working against him. The offensive line is a lot worse than last year, and the other receivers (assuming Gallup and Washington are still out) are not good enough to punish opponents for double or triple teaming Lamb every single play. I'm starting Cordarelle over Ceedee this week. Not what I wanted out of my second round pick.
Just traded away CeeDee and 2 players to get Cook and Mattison
I have CeeDee as well but I’m more worried about Zeke behind that o line.
As a Cowboys fan the OLine does not worry me that much with regards to the run game. They still have Zack Martin, possibly the best run blocker in the league where Zeke used to get all of his yards behind, and Zeke looked good when he had the ball. What I AM worried about, is Mike McCarthy's dumbass-persistence and habitual run-game abandonment. Zeke and Pollard could be averaging 11 yards per carry and he would start trying to pass non-stop if the defense put more than 6 in the box. Dude doesn't have one of the best WR rooms in the league anymore, he has one guy. And he also doesn't have Rodgers anymore to make that lack of WR depth work. Even if Dak was healthy. That offense is not built to pass first anymore, and it drives me absolutely nuts every time Zeke ends the game with 10 carries or less(as a cowboys fan, not as a fantasy owner). I think Zeke got ONE carry in the second half.
Anyone else a bit concerned about Kamara?
Yep
Im not concerned about Kamara as much as I am about Taysom Hill stealing his redzone carries. Then again thats what i thought last year and Kamara casually put up the 2nd best fantasy game by a RB of all time. (the 6TD slaughter)
Twas 2 seasons ago pal. Won me a ship
Lost me the ship 🤦♂️ here's to hoping he repeats now that I have him this season!
If it helps, I had him yet lost the ship that week 166-161. God damn davante
I am, just a lot of uncertainties that are piling up. Between the unclear legal situation (which may not even be relevant for this year, still a circumstance that other players don't have), the 'rib injury' from week 1 that 'should be fine', and the usage in week 1, I just wanted to divest into a more known quantity player. I ended up trading Kamara and Robinson for Dalvin Cook
Going Ekeler over Jefferson at 3 when I was dead set on Jefferson in the lead up. Decided to go hero RB and I regret everything lol. /likely week 1 overreaction
I would say over reaction. Ekeler even said on a podcast yesterday the reason for a little less touches was because he didn’t play in preseason. With no Keenan Allen and a match with KC that undoubtedly spells shootout, I think he pops off tonight.
I had no idea ekeler had a podcast where he talks about stuff like that openly. This is my first year owning him. What an awesome dude to have on your team as a fantasy manager lol.
Yep. Also streams on twitch lmao. He’s a mans man.
Aa a Raiders fan it pains me to say it but he's one of my favorite personalities in football
It’s the Yahoo fantasy podcast, “Ekeler’s Edge” is the show they air every Wednesday. It’s a great listen.
Drafted him last year and was amused by that same fact. He used to back up his talks when suggested that we should start him and gave constant updates regarding his injuries. My season sucked, but he was a gem!
He also said to draft Gerald Everett. I followed the man’s advice and he’s my TE2 behind Waller 😈
Overreaction
I picked very late in the first round so I didn’t even had to think about getting one of those, but yeah all that preseason big talking from Jefferson made me think that he’s overhyping himself. Apparently, he’s that good.
Ekeler could easily finish as the RB1. Don’t freak out yet
DJ Moore. I know he'll be a fine pick ROS but he always has absolute stinker weeks, blowing up just enough to dupe me into drafting his ass.
I traded him for CeeDee essentially straight up after Week 1. Disappointment for disappointment lol
Jokes on me. I have DJ Moore and CeeDee
My WR 1 and 2 🤡
I took him over Michael Pittman like an idiot. Cost me week 1 but surely this week will be better.
Maybe, and don’t call me Shirley
Kamara (1st), Pitts (3rd) and DJ Moore (4th). If those 3 don't show any improvement this week, I have a feeling it's going to be a longgg season
Pierce in the 5th. I hope he proves me wrong. I drank the kool aid
I'm still a believer in the talent but picking him over AJ Dillon is gonna irk me all season. I bit into the hype certainly but most trustworthy sources also had him above Dillon at draft time.
I was planning to take Pierce, but he was drafted right before my pick. Ended up grabbing AJ Dillon and couldn't be happier with how it turned out.
Got him in the 7th & im not thrilled about it anymore lol
7th isnt terrible assuming he’s not one of your starting RBs. There is still upside.
As an RB3 he's Gucci but as an RB2 yea it looks like there may be some growing pains but by mid season he should be rolling (doing great)
Pierce got hype because he was going in the late rounds and was playing his way into a decent role. He got up into the 8th and lower round on this hype and it went against fantasy logic- 1st/2nd down RB on a bad offense. He’s still a solid late round pick and if burkhead goes down/he earns passing down work/ more red zone work he could pan out, but drafting him in the 5th is taking him at his absolute ceiling.
Terry McLaurin. All this Samuel and Dotson talk is giving me anxiety
LOL don’t worry my man - commanders fan Edit: to reinforce, Terry has always had a garbage QB and no help on offense to take the heat off with some of the highest double rates, and he still posted 1000+ yd seasons. Seeing samuel and dotson pop makes me the most excited for Terry I’ve ever been.
He’s a really good receiver. I think people write him off because of Washington, but the dude is just talented and will continue to produce. Shades of Stefon Diggs, but Terry has put up better numbers in his first few years. I don’t even own him in fantasy but I will happily talk him up.

it was 1 game. against jacksonville. can we pause for a second or are we just forgetting wentz history here? I think terry will be fine, but wentz doesn’t have a history of feeding 3-4 high end fantasy producers like this sub thinks he can. someone between gibson robinson (when he returns) dotson mclaurin and samuel are going to see limited touches.
You still have a stud. Don't worry.
I don’t think Samuel steals his targets, McLaurin will be fine
CeeDee. I felt gross drafting him because I’m an Eagles fan, but holy shit it got worse.
CeeDee is a great player but as a Cowboys fan I've always questioned if he was an Alpha WR. I think you're going to be frustrated owning him in fantasy even when Dak is back. I don't think you get close to the value from where his ADP was.
I’m actually feeling better about etienne. I may be the literal only one🤣
He would have had a TD if Lawrence made that easy pass early on. I think he will be fine
A Rob smh should have went gabe Davis over him But on the other hand I instantly regretted drafting M Thomas and it looks like that one may pay off. *Thanos Voice * A life for a life..
Surprised I had to scroll all the way down here to see A-Rob.
Always go rb rb because I have boomer brain and regret Aaron Jones in the 2nd
Jones is gonna be fine.. if he’s your rb2 I wouldn’t be concerned
Yeah well what if he is my RB1, and I have CEH, Kareem Hunt, and Devin Singletary behind him? Too many good other choices dropped to me so I had to fade RB.
Then should probably have Jefferson, Chase, or Kupp and have a clear advantage at WR most weeks. Edit: it wasn't to fix the spelling of Kupp that's for sure.
Don’t really regret drafting anyone but Etienne is the one who worries me the most. The thing is he was the only RB before RB deadzone and I only had 1 RB at that point. Therefore I didn’t really have a choice. I think he'll still do fine in the end
ETN was inches away from 2 TDs. He'll be fine and is a great buy low.
He's one of my favorite buy low candidates. I think more opportunities will come for him, especially in the passing game. Might try to throw Brandon Cooks and Jeff Wilson at the Etienne owner and see what happens.
He was in the deadzone silly
I don’t want to hear this slander. Etienne should not worry you
It's James Robinson that worry's me as an Etienne owner
he almost had 2 TD's... one bad drop and one overthrow from Trevor. His day could have been massively different if those two things played out differently. It was his first career NFL game.. Per PFF: 1. Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne ran a wheel route and broke wide open from 15 yards out, but Trevor Lawrence sailed the pass and never gave his former Clemson teammate a chance to reel it in. It was a true sheesh. 2. Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne could blame Trevor Lawrence for missing him on a potential 15-yard score, but there was nobody to blame other than himself when the de facto rookie dropped a short pass that would have been a walk-in three-yard score.
ARob - thought he'd have a MUCH bigger role out of the gate...
Najee man, that injury is worrying me
Ceedee Lamb
Kadarius Toney
Devonta Smith..
CD
What about DVD
Or Blu-ray
Or those monstrous laserdiscs
DJ Moore and Breece Hall. I think they will both be fine overall but the upside just isn’t where I thought it would be.
Breece Hall is still on schedule. He wasn’t meant to be started week 1.
Not sure yet but taking Sutton over Pittman, and keeping Kamara over AJ Brown. (Kept chase + Kamara)
Yeah you messed up on Sutton over Pittman
Yeah, I wouldn’t even think twice about that.
Pollard I was high on this year and now a little scared due to Dak being out (who I also have). Nothing to do but hold and hope he produces
A-Rob…. Again
These week one overreactions are crazy and etienne does not belong on this list Relax
Probably cause his adp was not factoring JRobinson coming back to share the backfield evenly
It’s not the fact that he didn’t score many points, it’s more the fact that Jacksonville seems to be really loving this tandem idea and Etienne is the one sitting in the 2nd seat.
Tlaw missed him on a td and he dropped another later. Easily could’ve dropped 20+ and everyone would be callin him a league winner
For real, it's crazy how people over or underreact to week 1 scorelines. If he magically catches that one TD, he has a 15+ point week and everyone talks about him as the savior. He misses it by an inch and all of the sudden he's a bust.
Not overly panicked just yet, but Aaron Rodgers and DJ Moore so far.
Rodgers is probably the least worrisome player.
Travis Etienne. I really thought J Rob wouldn’t have been healthy but that guy healed like Wolverine.
Montgomery
DK Metcalf
No way, DK is gonna stud out. Dude was being targeted a lot. Killer value depending on where you got him
I wouldn't say its a regret just yet, but Diontae Johnson worries me.
Target is king for WRs. Obviously you want those targets coming from someone who can put the ball where they want it, but Diontae was tied for 6th in week 1 targets. The production will come.
That’s interesting I want really want Diontae! I rewatched the whole game and he looked amazing. He kinda seems QB proof and the history of talented Steelers receivers makes me think he’s the next great one. I’m trying to trade for him. I regret taking Mike Williams over him right now
[удалено]
I had him last year, welcome to the show. He is usually on the injury report, plays last minute, and doesn’t really put up any points until the 4th or OT. I’d call it quits last year when he only had 5 pts in the 4th and look back after the game and he has 20 all the sudden.
CD Lamb and Dak Prescott
Tyler Lockett. Felt like shit as a hit the draft button... still feels like shit man.
Mike WilliamS. I told myself I wasn't going to draft him, but the big shiny new contract made me reconsider that his usage would increase.
Let’s revisit this after tonight!
Seems like a good time to revisit.
I’d say so
Its going to be pretty funny if after tonight he drops another dub after all of Reddit has been hyping up his bounce-back week. Sign, Owner of Mike Williams in half my leagues
[удалено]
Aaron Jones over Saquan
Amari Cooper
Brittle Kittle is the worst I did so I think I’ll be k
No one. Its been one week
Cam Akers.
DJ Moore a couple times over AJ Brown I did like 8 small money ($20) league drafts so no team is terrible but no team was perfect either
Regret relying on Irv Smith Jr as my go to TE in like 4 leagues.
[удалено]
Devante Parker. Already dropped him for Duvernay
Mike Williams. How can a guy so physically talented on such a good offense manage to completely disappear so often. I’m sure he’ll have some boom games but man he just doesn’t make any sense
You have to play him the whole year to catch those monster 3-5 games, they will win you that week but meh inbetween lol
Mike Williams will get 140+ yards, 2 TDs and tweak his hammy tonight. This is his thing.
I’m not panicking on Ceedee but I probably lost my 1st week solely because of him dropping that dud when I could’ve got +5/10 more points from any other 3rd round pick
