  1. Ex. I offered one M. Ingram OR S. Michel and E. Sanders OR B. Cooks for Julio. Declined!

     

    It's a no-brainer decline when the net effect is Ingram/Michel for Mack and Sanders/Cooks for Julio.

     

    Most people want to make 2-for-1 deals in a shallow 10 team league, not 1-for-2. (Unless you start 80+ RB/WR/TE instead of 60.)

    Improve your offers or find a 14-16 team league.

  2. I don't think Tampa bay can put Winston in when his suspension is over. Is this a tent Green/Kurt warner all over again?

     

    My guess it is

     

    The comparison doesn't really make sense. Winston did it to himself and Trent Green got hurt. There was no option to re-instate T.Green as the starter because he was out for the year.

     

    TB was looking for an excuse to replace Winston anyway. Clearly, they now have it.

  3. For example.....you have Philly defense and they are on the road playing the Patriots/Packers/Saints. Yet you notice the Lions D is available and they are playing the Bills. Scenarios like this.

    I would call these duh scenarios.

    The opponent always matters more than the defense itself.

  4. Starting RBs are your late round or bottom guys?

    Your leagues are way too shallow for me personally.

     

    Since the cuffs of studs (J.Kelly, R.Smith, C.Edmonds, A.Ekeler, L.Murray) are too obvious...

     

    ...I'll go with 3rd stringer Roc Thomas, Min.

     

    Two months ago my answer was Jordan Wilkins but everyone and their grandmother knows that one now.

  5. So for Drake...expect 200 carries, 700-800 yards rushing, 400-500 yards receiving, and 6-10 total TDs. If you're comfortable with those numbers for a RB2 then by all means - take him there. Drake has a very, very high ceiling...but his floor brings his projection to what I anticipate above.

     

    Last word:

    Target Drake as your #2 only if you have a top5 #1. Otherwise target him as a RB3.

     

     

    Hell yes I'm comfortable with those "floor" numbers for an RB2. 1100 yards and 6+ TD's and 35+ receptions was easily a top 15 back last year.

     

    (I would change the rec yards floor to more conservative 300 and still take it.)

  6.  

    Thank you for clarifying. I've been doing auction for several years. Previously I have always felt very confident but not this year. Where did you see it say that it is based on starting 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE. My league uses a flex (WR, RB, and TE) rather than a third WR so I would place an even greater value on the RB position.

     

    Had to hover over where it says "based on standard lineup" to see it.

    Most sites will have the top RB at up to 35% of cap and top WR up to 22-24%-ish. In non-PPR, that is. So you could use that and scale down from there.

     

    If non-PPR, I think you want to get the best 2 top RBs possible and then one top tier WR as Noob suggested.

    Then all those 3rd/4th tier RBs/WRs are abundant at lower relative costs because the top tier players take up everyone's cap space.

  7. I have no idea what to do this year. The past few weeks I have been preparing for my league's auction draft. This year seems far more difficult than in previous years.

     

    Since only Frozenbeernuts really attempted to answer your question... (the OP isn't asking for general auction strategy... he's done auction for years and is asking about THIS year...)

     

    I'll say try using fantasypro's projections inside their auction calculator as a starting point: https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/auction-values/calculator.php

    It says its based on starting 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE. Adjust prices if needed based on your league's lineup requirements and your own personal rankings. Or find some other calculators out there since they'll have to have current year projections built into them somehow.

     

    If the auction starts and players are going for prices waaaaaay different than your values... start gobbling up all your best value differentials.

    If players are going for the prices you projected... then obviously you need to pick the guys you just really like/want.
