    Week 5 waiver wire targets

    There's some scuttlebutt of Kamara getting traded over the next few weeks. Kendre Miller would suddenly own that backfield. Might be worth a bench spot if ya got room.

    Week 5 waiver wire targets

    Rachaad White is worth considering given the uncertainty with Bucky. There's a chance he gets the start next week.

    Week 5 suicide league FAB bidding?

    That's insane. He almost certainly won't be around down the stretch. Gotta save that money for the elites later in the season.

    Week 5 suicide league FAB bidding?

    I think suicide league is the same as a guillotine league. Right? I'm in my 3rd year in a guillotine league. We also start with $1,000 FAB. The "experts" warn not to bid much the first few weeks and I've stuck to that advice. Only used about $75 so far picking up some mid-level Wrs with $20 - $30 bids. If you lost Nabers and Hill (oof - that sucks), then you probably need to pony up a little extra. Something like: $175 Chase - I'd go more, but without Burrow not sure Chase will ever return to superstar. $125 Allen $75 Pittman $60 Jennings $25 Slayton For me, I'm hurting at Rb and Gibbs just hit the waiver wire and I'm bidding $181 ... My biggest bid so far this year, but I need help. I probably won't get him, but that's as high as I'm willing to go. It's too early to brake the bank.

    Week 4

    I did end up drafting Tank - even reached a bit with a 9th round pick. Of course didn't start him, but of all the players I completely whiffed on - Tank tops the list. Since dropped him. Read those tea leaves wrong.

    Week 4

    Brian Thomas Jr. with the 9th overall pick. Otherwise, can't complain. 3-1 and about to end a long playoff drought. For once, my instincts worked - and I don't mean just avoiding injury bug. Chase Brown -vs- Bucky Irving.... for a week before the draft I was back and forth what to do with my 2nd rd pick. Brown's mediocre metrics and Bengals poor o-line nudged me in the right direction. Cook falling to early 4th sealed the deal. I'll be banana dancing my way to the playoffs!

    MNF Discussion: Buccaneers @ Texans - Week 2

    Texans had one of the worst o-lines coming into the season. In week 1 they earned a pff grade of 25th and now their starting center is out. I would've guessed the spread to be Bucs -3, not Texans. Shows what I know.

    Charlie Kirk was just shot

    No loyalty. I had this conversation with my dad once... "If I murdered someone, would ya turn me in?" He said yes. I was like "Seriously? Heck, I'd help you bury Mom."

    TNF Discussion: Commanders at Packers - Week 2

    They said Achilles - not ***officially*** a full tear yet... but I think we know. It's over Johnny. 9,000+ all purpose yards, 73 Tds, 9 seasons. Strangely - never made a pro-bowl. A top fantasy pick for a few years between '21-'23. Thanks for the memories.

    Remembering 9/11

    "European airlines have been locking c*ckpit doors for nearly a decade... perhaps we should do that too.?." FAA - nah, screw that.
  16. Florida has a law known as the Sunshine Law which requires nearly everything that goes on government record, be available to the public quickly. Slow day in the media... check Florida records and find an odd story. Hence the perception "only in Florida."

    Eagles are acquiring Tank Bigsby

    Certainly explains Tank's limited usage week 1... trade was pending. Unfortunately, it completely nukes his value. I'll be dropping him Wed morning.

    The Official Week 1 FU Thread

    Dolphin fans knew vibes around the team weren't good with disgruntled players demanding trades. Most assumed they'd finish around 0.500 and miss the playoffs again. Of course there was hope the team might be better than assumed, or at least contend for playoffs for part of the season. That was before getting humiliated on opening day. The team is worse than anyone imagined and the coach is officially a clown shoe. Losing to the Colts is one thing, but they didn't even compete. The Colts scored on every possession. How long can a modern NFL gm keep a job without a playoff win, you ask? You'd assume maybe 5 years before getting axed. Possibly 7 years in rare cases if the team consistently made the playoffs. Dolphins gm Grier is entering his 10th season and after a decade on the job without any playoff wins, this is the team he's created. The man still cashes a paycheck. I've obviously been disappointed many times by the Dolphins over the decades, but I'd never reached this level of total disgust. FU to everyone associated with the Dolphins from players, to the coach, to gm, and particularly the owner who purchased the team in 2006 and turned a once proud franchise into a catastrophic embarrassment.

    CMC - Deja Vu

    Usually better to get out a year too early, than a year too late. Particularly with a 1st round pick. Before I looked at adp's a few months back for the first time, I would've guessed McCaff's adp to be about mid-3rd rd. I was stunned at the optimism. I guess he reached a level of fantasy greatness nobody can forget and many believe it returns. It'll be interesting to see how this shakes out. The drafters who risked 1st rd picks are the ultimate gamblers - I can respect that. If they all get paid, hats off.

    Liberals ONLY

    Don't know if I carry the liberal tag.... I usually vote Republican, but my social views are on both sides of the fence depending on what I believe (rather than what a party tells me to think like some folks). That said, I didn't vote for Trump in this term and I consider him the worst President of all time at this point. So I guess I'm qualified to answer: 1) I'm very opposed to immigration. Trump does good in that department. 2) Trump got Europe to get off their lazy butts and spend money on defense instead of "why should we spend? If there's a war - the US will save us." Now it came at the expense of the US looking like unreliable jackasses, but credit where it's due. 3) "Mount McKinley" damnit. And reinstalled Confederate statues. Those never should have changed to begin with. During his first term, I applauded Trump for reducing corporate taxes which economists generally agreed was the right thing for the economy. But no politician had the guts to do it. Trump did. ........................................................ Those things don't even come close to making up for the garbage he does today. Worst President of my lifetime.

    CMC - Deja Vu

    Entered last year on IR because of achilles tendinitis - in both feets. Eventually played 3 full games... 10.7 pts, 10.6 pts, 4.8 pts, then sprained mcl in the fourth. All 4 games combined finished with 4.0 ypc, zero Tds, 1.7 ya-contact (career low), and 6.5 ya-catch (career low). Now 29 with a long injury history and in spite of last year's poor stats... he's gonna regain '23 form AND stay healthy.?. Hope springs eternal for some. Not me.

    Fields vs Pittsburgh

    If he makes a deep playoff run, it'll be Rodgers way of saying screw you to Green Bay.

    5 bold predictions 2025

    I'm slightly optimistic on Pollard, but good lord he stinks at the goal line. '24... 2 for 5 '23... 2 for 16 '22... 2 for 7 '21... 1 for 2 '20... 2 for 3 A career 9 for 33. Not good. And might be partly why Titans invested a 6th rd pick in 6'2" 226 lb Kalel Mullings.
