It’s only a ten team league it should be.   I thought he took Mahomes at Qb, Allen was the number one ff Qb, He avg one point more per game.  So he took the number two ff Qb.  

The draft was for picking players for this coming season, not last. Mahomes adp is #1 on many sites including ESPN.

I’ve posted players I’ve drafted, I just don’t do weekly updates, I save that for the ff fools like Sean and the elf.   I also don’t feel the need for me to post any mock draft results. I don’t need those look at me moments. 

Thanks.  

So no courage to actually stand behind a team you draft? Got it.

@Axe Elf and I may have gone back and forth a few times but I at least respect that he will throw a team up there and be like "Here's what I did"

And mock drafts are a key component of fantasy football drafting because you can see how others perceive players.

Best ADP is ones own, I’m sorry that those others deceive you.

Not in a ten team league.  I’m embarrassed by the about of attention you keep giving me, but all I can say is Thanks.  

I think it’s great that you two ff gods post about your teams, keep it up.  Many others on here need the help. 

Thanks.

Oh that's right I forgot...you were the one that ran and hid when people challenged you to do a fantasy league last year for bragging rights. 

I remember now. 

[weepaws 1,834]

I don’t need to brag about myself, that’s a very sinful thing to do. I’m sorry about your memory problem.  

Time for the splash park, I’ll see all of my fans in about five hours.  

Good day.  

Thanks.

Just an observation....I've never seen you ever post any of the teams you drafted here. 

Because nobody else cares about a fantasy team that someone else drafted...  Simple as that...

Especially for a game that is all luck...

So you don't understand how message boards work?

Cool.

This really is entertaining during the NFL dead season.  I like the way Elf writes a dissertation on each pick to throw everyone off and get away with “rate my team”.  This really should be moved to the “little help board”.

I really like Mike Williams this year, his ADP is fantastic if he can stay healthy. I also like the late flyer on Herbert and Schultz. Solid draft.

I think he's about right.  He had one season where he lived up to his talent and it happened to be a contract year.  Plus the chargers drafted that TCU guy that's big and fast (but can't really catch).

Dude, if you seriously can say that you care about other people's fantasy football team, you have some serious issues...

When I played, I only cared about my team...  Why would anyone give a rat's ass about another team that you have zero control over?

[nobody 1,640]

Wait.  You don't play FF and you're reading FF posts?  Why?

no surprise.   I had a friend who only picked players in contract years and damn nearly every player performed for him..... imagine that.   to that end, I love taking players in contract years.   Lots to love about that.

this is something people have been speculating about for some time.     it makes no sense to me.... but different strokes for different folks.   I suppose as long as he enjoys it who are we to criticize.

Toney at 11.03?   Gimme some of that!

well, the issue with him has always been his ability to stay healthy.   last year he was learning the system in KC.    so I am expecting a significant bump in his numbers but his ability to stay healthy is still a major concern.

I think at that point in the draft, the benefits outweigh the risks, but this is probably in the range I'd expect him to be drafted.

I dont mind the pick.    I also suspect as training camp progresses his ADP will trend towards being earlier in the draft.   not substantially earlier but at least a round (possibly 2 earlier)

granted this is just speculation.  he could also get hurt and his ADP falls off.  hard to say for sure with this guy.

For the record.  The post is pretty clear.

Poster views Toney as a good value in the 11th and acknowledges the injury history and risk.  He also expected Toney's ADP to climb.

Not sure what is possibly unclear about that.

[weepaws 1,834]

Ray post is perfectly clear, my post was simply a tongue in cheek humerus response. Ray is adult he knows this.  Don’t take things I say to seriously, it will cause high blood pressure.  

And I agree with both of those poster, Toney in the 11th is a very good value  even in a rookie ten team league.  

Thanks.

I’m intrigued by Toney as well.  He’s a great late round flyer for sure, but I think I like Skyy  Moore a little better.

Rice appears to be in the mix as well, but we probably won't really know how the KC WRs are going to shake out until they shake out.  Moore has a year of experience, but didn't flash much as a rookie.  Toney flashes, and has the best escapability after the catch, but hasn't stayed healthy.  Rice has great burst, but is a rookie.  MVS is still around, but we kind of know what we have there.  Someone else might step up--Justyn Ross?  Ritchie James?

Somebody's going to be a great late-round pick; Toney's the frontrunner at this point.

Not a judgement of your statement, but a ff question, why do you think Moore is better, I’m asking this question cause I’m on the fence about those two players.  Moore can be even a bigger value. 

I have that KC might be making a push for D Hop.
