Mr. Landry

I set up the league on MFL (like the last few years). Double check your rosters to make sure I didn't make any mistakes. https://www76.myfantasyleague.com/2021/home/41871#0

The biggest one is the FFPC. I played with them a few years, but switched over to the FFWC about three years ago. Both are legit contests with high stakes entry (somewhere around $1,700 a team). They are similar, but have differences in scoring (one example, FFPC has a 1.5 PPR for TE’s). The FFPC has a higher grand prize, but the FFWC has higher league payouts. Both have live drafts in Vegas the weekend the season starts.

16.06 - TE Gerald Everett, SEA

15.07 - New England Patriots DST

Sucked it up and grabbed Williams. Certainly not an excitable choice, but all the RB's left are sub-par and at least I'll have insurance for CEH. Williams' ADP is right around this point so I don't feel like I overpaid for that insurance.

14.06 - RB Darrel Williams, KC

You may have spoke too soon...

At 10.06 it was Gallup, Davis or Waddle for me. I actually had Gallup typed up and then talked myself out of it. Taking Davis will be my biggest regret of this draft (unless he goes off and plays like a true #1WR for the Jets). If I had a do-over, I would take Gallup. I convinced myself that a #1 WR on a crappy team was better than the #3 on a GREAT team. I think it was a mistake.

As some have pointed out, Jaylen Waddle probably should not have been available to me in the twelfth round (I actually considered him in the tenth), so I had to pounce. He and Tua already have a connection and, in the slot, he should be peppered with targets. He's the sixth WR on my roster, but could easily produce WR4 or even WR3 (if things fall right) numbers. With four teams picking after me without a back up QB, I felt I needed to grab one now or potentially end up with QB 25 (since remote took three). I would not be too comfortable with that. Tua was less than ideal his rookie year, but he didn't have a lot to work with and he was a rookie that lost out on a lot of face to face time because of COVID (plus he was coming off that nasty hip injury). They've upgraded his weapons and the o-line will not be starting three rookies this year. I think he's a solid back up with the potential to put up low-end QB1 numbers if things fall right.

QB - Tua Tagovailoa, MIA

12.06 WR Jaylen Waddle, MIA

I would have taken Gesicki over Trautman, but I like Truatman's potential. NO let Cook and Hill go, which makes Trautman pretty much the only game in town at the TE position. He could easily become the third receiving option in that offense. I think he's a great #2 TE. If he pans out you are gold, if not you're already covered (although there are some question marks surrounding Tonyan this year too...so I may have leaned in a "safer" direction?).

11.07 - RB Nyheim Hines, IND

In my opinion, Gallup is the best value of the Cowboys receivers. He's being drafted as a WR4/5 and I think he has WR3 potential. He had over 100 targets and over 800 yards last year with the likes of Ben DiNucci throwing to him. I saw a stat where he was averaging over 65 yards a game in the four games with Dak last year. That projects out to north of 1,000 yards. I certainly think he's a lock to outperform his current ADP.

Not sure if it's the same story, but about two weeks ago former Cowboys bench warmer and Jaguars 5-time pro-bowler, Jimmy Smith, ripped Cooper for his "lack of effort".
