I will add that in today's NFL, it is of course reasonable to expect a rookie RB with some promise to eat into the incumbent's touches a bit. But it's interesting to me that Williams is all of the sudden being viewed almost as a DND in round 3 because of the draft capital used on Corum (rd 3).... the Jets drafted Braelon Allen in round 4. Is Breece Hall now not an every down back? Avoid at his adp? Curious where we draw the draft capital line.
-
Im not super high on Williams but all these posts about full blown RBBC and Kyren isn't a workhorse or every down back are pretty laughable. Where is the evidence that Williams and Corum are in a true RBBC? Not saying it cant happen, but where are we pulling this news from? And I see Gobble has already taken care of dispelling the notion that Williams isn't an every down back... it's as if some of you don't watch football.

One final thing to consider. If CMC were to be released back into the draft pool, how much do you think he would go for? $31 looks like his going rate for 12 team PPR with $100 budget. He's costing you $37. Is there a chance you could release him and redraft him at $34? It's risky for sure but that savings could go a long way in helping you build your depth

I think it's a no brainer to keep London and let Jacobs go. if it's start 2RB, 3WR and no flex, I think you can find an RB3 or even go for two RB4 types with upside. You'll have $12 to spend after allocating $2 to kicker and defense. With how many QBs are fantasy viable, I have to believe you can land a starter for $3 and not even spend $1 on a backup, just add one after the draft. That leaves you $9 for a starting TE, backup RB, backup WR and any other depth you feel you need to get via the draft rather than free agency. Again I have no idea what players will be kept in your league and I am admittedly looking at redraft auction values but cheap options I like at each position include... QB - Cousins/Goff/Baker/Tua ... Carr/Minshew undrafted RB - Dowdle/Kendre Miller .... Tyrone Tracy and Elijah Mitchell since you own CMC and Singletary. I left out any backs I think would go for $5 or more but of course there is the option of bringing Edwards back or Javonte Williams, jerome ford, zack moss etc.... WR - Hollywood/Sutton..... Cooks/Josh Palmer/Jermaine Burton/ TE - This is where you're really going to be hurting unless you league spends far less than current auction values. I think you have to target the likes of Friermuth/Juwan Johnson/Hunter Henry

Happy 4th of July. Liberal has a meltdown over seeing an American Flag at the beach. If the American Flag offends you, GTFO. Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸

At this point I’d be shocked if he is aware of anything tbh. And I’m not just picking low hanging fruit. Guy seems like the last thing in his mind is if he even has twitter -

Wanna bet? First off it’s not an intern in either case. Social media is too important in today’s politics for it not to be a full on social media team. So your dismissive “an intern forgot” is silly. Second, whoever is in charge of the presidents twitter is indeed writing the policy based posts. They are being told what to write, but making the posts nonetheless -

and yet if "he" tweeted or showed something good or in that you could use to prove a positive point about him on his page, you'd be praising him, not the intern. -

I never had any inclination to serve since I grew up in an affluent neighborhood where 98% of my graduating class went on to college. I have always had the utmost respect for our service men and women and am very grateful for all that they do, even if not involved directly in combat. My grandfathers both served. I don't think being well educated and choosing to go to college right off the bat means someone has less class than someone who chose to, or had no other option than to go the military route. I don't like to generalize those who go into service right out of school but there are statistics to back up many of them having it be their best option more so than a choice.... Just saying, not insinuating that they are "knuckleheads" or not amazing, standup men and women. and while I understand the "their service keeps our freedom so you can attend college and have a better life!", on a case by case basis., it really doesn't. -
People on either side should know that this is often the case (someone else really running the country)

So he says he was tired and he plans to start going to sleep at 8pm from now on. If you need to go to sleep by 8pm to be able to be aware enough in general, what business do you have running a country? How is the even a passable excuse and how can his supporters still blindly accept these excuses? I have yet to ask certain lib members of my family how they feel because I don’t care enough about politics to let it strain important relationships but I’m very interested to at least know, regardless of their disdain for Drump, how they can support this guy without simply admitting “anyone but Trump” is all they care about because he’s on their mind 24/7 and “no Trump” is more important than an actual good candidate.

Cooked RBs don’t often become raw again hth. God bless

She seems a little too heterosexual for most of the libs around here

instead of using Adams and his QB situation as a comp... you could use Pittman and Minshew. Minshew is not someone who would be considered a top 10 fantasy QB but he was good enough to feed Michael Pittman to a WR18 finish (ppg) on only 136 targets. I view Harrison as more talented than Pittman and I think Murray is better than Minshew. The other comp would be DJ Moore at WR9 with Tyson Fields at QB

I'd be keeping London and Goff (unless you think you can get a startable QB for $1-$3. I don't know how your other league owners operate. If you can get a Lawrence/Cousins/Tua or get Goff back cheaper then just keep London. Release Jacobs. CMC, Singletary Brown, Waddle, London $14 to spend on QB(Goff back for cheaper?), TE, RB3, depth. Basically, i'd rather have London and $2 less budget than Jacobs. WR>RB in this keeper/dynasty hybrid league and you still have 2 starting backs on your roster, with one of them being a league winner. Also based on your rules, if you are not required to leave the draft with a DST and K, i'm not sure why you would even spend $1 on any. Sounds like they can be picked up for $5 after the draft, which has no impact on your budget, and you wouldn't keep them next season anyway.
-
and then i read this and my last post was a waste of time . I do wish people would give all the information up front. First post makes it sound like a startup draft, which is obviously going to get very different advice than what is essentially a keeper league where you may simply be stuck with certain players at their price points because of the lack of draftable players in general. I don't like CMC at $37 but this isn't a true dynasty so might as well keep him. Singletary at $3 is cheap enough. AJ Brown stays at $17. I might let Jacobs go to save the $13. That's about his budget in a redraft but you might be able to turn that into Zack Moss and Dalton Kincaid. It's hard to say one way or another without knowing what players will be in the draft pool. I can't imagine Moss and Kincaid not being kept so.... A little odd that you don't have a QB worth keeping.
-
I wasn't really sure how I would answer this until I read 'dynasty' so no. absolutely not. I wouldn't spend big on any of the players you mentioned because I don't see any value there. CMC will have a big year but how long will help you in dynasty? unless you plan to flip him after the season. I'd much rather focus on stacking my WR room with young stars, maybe penciling LaPorta in as my TE, getting a value QB (one of the first to come to mind is actually Dak as someone who will get overlooked because he is now older but can put up numbers and will still get you plenty of seasons). As for RB, maybe identify one player to be your #1 who is a "value" relative to budget. Jonathan Taylor might be one of the higher priced guys I don't mind a spend on. significantly cheaper than CMC (or Hall or Robinson) still young and locked in. After that I probably don't consider anyone until Pacheco/Etienne as guys with upside who's prices are palatable right now. Otherwise, I wait for Rhamondre/Zamir/Kendre Miller/Rico and for a dynasty, if Chubb's price tag is suppressed due to his injury, he might be worth a stab.
-
I think there is a little bit of sleeping on Rico
-
I heard she trademarked it or something. Idk if that is true also why keep your school named Epstein Day School
-
Tampa fan but lot of Mets fans in the family.

It was just a quick comparison. In MHJs case I think Murray is better than what Adams was working with last year. my main point was you don’t have to be a top 10 NFL QB to support a top season for one receiver

That 3 wood was my first ever name brand club. Used it as my driver as a junior golfer.
-
i don't consider it alarming. I consider it where it should be, given this once in a lifetime opportunity. If not now, when? They got their great white hope finally going pro. I don't wish them failure but I don't see it being sustainable. I almost think the "beef" between Clark and Reese is just as important.... and I think the league needs about 10 more Clarks and Reeses to sustain any type of financial success. Or to even become profitable.
-
and maybe it is a fair thing to say. When I said there isn't any evidence to support it, I'm thinking more along the lines of I have not heard any basketball people making that comparison... not that I go out of my way to look for WNBA pundits but I have sports talk on enough and see enough talking heads discussing Clark and the WNBA this year. (which is good for their sport if it keeps up)
-
yeah, i'm not knocking your opinion or saying it's wrong. I have no clue. Maybe she is a female steve nash. I was just pointing out to Hawkeye that it was your guess and more anecdotal than anything.
-
I assume Clark is viewed as their best player... as she should be given the hype. So yes, I assume she sees tougher defense. I do know for a fact that Reese is 6'3. I guess that counts as a big for the WNBA even though there are obviously some super tall women playing. I just quickly looked and she leads the league in Rebounding and is really no taller than other players in the top 15-20 in the category. Some being as tall as 6'6" Reese's team is 7-11 and doesn't appear to be very good. She is their 3rd leading scorer and obviously leading rebounder. I would think there would be some defensive game planning toward her.
