Mike FF Today 721 Posted July 11, 2024 I'm in the Spinal Tap division, Team @FF_Today. I think I've been a bit spoiled the last couple years in this contest, as others in my league haven't really taken the odd scoring rules to heart. This year, my division seems to be more on the ball in that regard. As a result, it's been more difficult to get the players I wanted. My first 8 picks from the 1.02 position... 1.02 - QB Jalen Hurts, PHI 2.11 - TE Trey McBride, ARI 3.11 - RB Derrick Henry, BAL 4.02 - QB Caleb Williams, CHI 5.11 - WR Michael Pittman, IND 6.02 - WR D.J. Moore, CHI 7.11 - WR Tee Higgins, CIN 8.02 - RB Zamir White, LVR For those unfamiliar with the scoring setup, it's wild. Superflex, .25 points per rush attempt, half-PPR for RBs, 1 PPR for WRs, 1.5 PPR for TEs. You start 11 players each week with 6 flex spots. Kickers as well as WRs who moonlight as returners have legitimate value. Doug has a team too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Back to doing the online one this year and man it's such a different experience, particularly when you're OTC and able to see the ADP trends in live time, do a bit more in-depth research on scoring projections etc. I decided to fade tight ends this year. I know everyone is excited about the TE premium aspects, but imho TE premium isn't enough of a booster to start reaching on guys like David Njoku, Dallas Goedert, etc. Sure the top-tier guys are in a great spot, but I think people go a little crazy when they hear "premium" on a position that is generally so-so relative to the other positions. I got sniped in the 4th round. I really wanted Pacheco in this scoring format. Had to end up abandoning my RB-heavy start. Right now we're still in round 9. Drafting from the 1.04 position: 1.04 - CMC 2.09 - Saquon Barkley 3.09 - Travis Etienne 4.04 - Brock Purdy 5.09 - Davante Adams 6.04 - Mike Evans 7.09 - Rashid Shaheed 8.04 - Matt Stafford Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
