Primetime9287 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I am in a league that does BBW and I really want Derrick Ward. The league gives you $100 to bid with. How much would you want to give for a single player? My league is 12 teams with a 20 man roster. Free agency is very thin so it seems like bidding a lot wouldnt kill you since FAs this good may not come around. Any thoughts? I know this may be geared more towards Fantasy Advice but I wanted to discuss strategies and what not also, not just the individual player. Thanks guys!

It's true good ones come along very rarely and some guys will shoot their wad on them. If you've been in the league awhile you can usually see a trend in how teams bid, but if this is new to the league it's a lot harder. Also be careful to not use all your money as you may need an injury/bye week replacement late in the year and most teams require you have at least a $1 to pick guys up.

cdrudge Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 How badly do you want them? How deep is your rosters at the position? How deep is it at other positions in case you need a bye week filler or another player is injured? Spend as much as YOU think it's worth. You can blow all $100 on him, but then you are SOL for anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primetime9287 Posted September 13, 2007 Author Share Posted September 13, 2007 I just picked him up for 26 dollars, chris brown went for 40. same format as yours Thx guys, so much for getting him. I bid $45.00, he went for 53.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Cid Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 FWIW, I bid 63 to get him in a league with the same format. Next highest was 54. You have to figure that the gems are going to emerge within the first 3-4 weeks of the season, you should target your high $$$ acquisitions then. After that, it's just pulling bodies for injury replacements for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
