Mike FF Today

They've been doing this in practice for a couple years. Reid wanted to get it on tape...

Justin Watson in the starting lineup for Marquise Brown (shoulder).

2 boards in one day. Non-PPR is ready. Saquon Barkley.

QB Caleb Williams and WR Rome Odunze have picked it up in the 2nd quarter for the Bears. Williams out here looking like Mahomes even on incompletions.

Credit to Daniel Jones, he did throw a nice, long pass to Darius Slayton.

Oof.

Daniel Jones in mid-season form...

Bears go 3-and-Out on their first series... - Caleb Williams: 0-3, 0 yds, 0 TDs, 0 INTs - No D'Andre Swift, Khalil Herbert gets the start

And here go for the Half-PPR folks.

PPR scoring swayed my decision there. I'm higher on Diontae Johnson than most. Wanted to be WR heavy going in and knew after round 2 that I was going to be weak at RB. I'll use the waiver wire to focus on RB.

Not sure if this league is locked to the public, but if not, here are the Draft Results. Each team has 2 IR spots available, which made drafting Brooks and Hollywood easier to stomach. I'll put those two on IR, then have 2 open spots for free agents once the season starts.

I just a did a draft with a bunch of other industry types. This league has a more home-league vibe. - 12 teams, PPR, 18 rounds - 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, 1TE, 1 Flex (RB, WR, TE), 1 K, 1 D/ST 2.02 - WR Marvin Harrison Jr., ARI 2.12 - WR Cooper Kupp, LAR Harrison was the 8th WR taken, while Kupp was the 12th WR taken. Next WRs taken after Kupp were: Nico Collins, DK Metcalf, Mike Evans, Chris Olave.

No Justin Herbert, as expected...

8/15 Update - As drafting season starts gain some steam, we have many edits to projections and player notes. Most notable... - MIN QBs (Sam Darnold up, J.J. McCarthy dropped) - CLE RBs (Nick Chubb, Jerome Ford) - DEN RBs (Jaleel McLaughlin, Samaje Perine) - KC WRs (Marquise Brown, Rashee Rice)

Wisdom.

Per Adam Schefter… Chiefs HC Andy Reid said WR Hollywood Brown has been hospitalized due to a sternoclavicular joint dislocation. Brown’s availability for the start of the regular season is in question. Tyreek Hill missed 4 games in 2019 with a similar injury.

Sam Darnold for all of 2024...

This sounds about right. I'd expect him to miss the first two games.
