Hey Dcat, appreciate the kind words, and you're welcome. Glad I could help all the teams who had questions throughout the season and look forward to another solid year! NO Gang Green is not a common name of the Eagles, which is why I choose it. I Like to be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwockenf Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 10 Team League starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex (RB/WR/TE). All TDs worth 6pts, 25 Yds passing = 1 pt, 3 pt bonus at 400yds, INTs = -2, PPR = 1 pt. Snake Draft and I pick 9th. I know DJ, Bell, AB, OBJ, and Mike Evans are being kept...not sure of the other teams yet...We don't lose any draft picks or anything... Here are the players I have to choose from. I can only keep one. Thoughts? Matt Ryan Melvin Gordon Doug Martin Latavius Murray Jacquizz Rodgers Brandin Cooks Taylor Gabriel Allen Robinson Julian Edelman Delanie Walker Martellus Bennett Thanks in advance!

Melvin Gordon would be my choice. Especially if you're not losing a round. Gives you one of the top 5 RBs (depending on who's list you look at) to start your team before the draft even begins.

rwockenf Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Thanks for the post...I have a second league that is a 12 Team Keeper Auction League Starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 2 Flex (RB/WR/TE). 1 pt for every 20 Yards passing, -2 for INTs, 4 pt TDs for QB, 6 pts for all others. 1 pt PPR. I can keep 1 player. Keeper doesn't cost any picks. Must pay $5 over what you bought player for last year and total comes out of budget ($225...we have IDPs). Here are my terrible choices and what I paid LAST YEAR: Eli Manning - 8 Andy Dalton - 4 Doug Martin - 35 Frank Gore - 12 Brandin Cooks - 38 Jarvis Landry - 22 Allen Robinson - 6 Kelvin Benjamin - 35 Delanie Walker - 18 I don't HAVE to keep anyone.

Thoughts? Yeah those choices are all a little ewww. Anyway you don't have to keep anyone but if you decided too ARob probably would have the best value if you believe he'll bounce back. Costing you only 11 (with the extra 5 added) right now he's going for roughly 22 to start(depending on the site you look at). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwockenf Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Yeah I suppose that's a fair way to do it...look and see if I would, on average, get enough value to justify keeping anyone. If not, throw them all back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabercats5441 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Hi GGL, are you ready for football season ? How do I draft ? PPR League - 8 teams QB: Drew Brees WRS: Doug Balwin, Jarvis Landry RBS: David Johnson, DeMarco Murray TE: Zach Ertz Flex: Christian McCaffrey BN: Davante Adams, Keenan Allen, Willie Snead, Golden Tate, Mike Gillislee K: Empty DEF: Arizona DL: Joey Bosa LB:Boony Wagner CB: Empty S: Reshad Jones I need to drop 2 players to pick K and CB . It is hard to drop Willie Snead because i have Drew as my QB . Keenan Allen is good WR but make of glass . Who should I drop ? My week 5 I need to drop someone to pick backup QBs, So i think to leave CB as empty again to pick QB in week 5, will you do that ? Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcostley Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Hey GGL, I got one for you. In a 10-person PPR league, here is my roster. QB Cousins RB1 Gordon RB2 Demarco WR1 Demaryius Thomas WR2 Crabtree Flex Crowder TE Walker K Vinatieri D/ST Broncos Bench Martavis Bryant Tevin Coleman Doug Martin Jack Doyle James White Kenny Stills Eli Manning I have been offered Derrick Henry and Jacquizz Rodgers for Tevin Coleman. I really would like to handcuff Henry, and Jacquizz would provide flex appeal until Doug gets back, but Coleman has such a high handcuff value with Freeman. Thoughts? Is this a good move? Thanks!

Makes a ton of sense from your end, since you have Murray and Martin. I wouldn't hold out hope on getting a better offer from the Freeman owner, and I'm never one to hold onto a handcuff of a player I don't own (Freeman) in the hopes he becomes the starter. Coleman has value outside of a handcuff though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKEYST13 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Hey GGL- Debating my draft approach: 12 team, no PPR, second QB eligible for flex (so not a true 2 QB league, but pretty much plays that way other than bye weeks.) I have Carr as a 4th rd keeper. Ryan, Mariota, Dak, all off the board as QB keepers. I know the top 3 picks are DJ, Bell, Rodgers. Would you take one of the top WRs, or go Brady and run he and Carr out every week? Think I'm leaning toward Brady as Brady, Carr, and 2 mid-tier WRs seems better than getting stuck with a mid-low tier QB in my flex....

No PPR and basically a 2 QB league, that sounds like a solid approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonmonkey20 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 4 minutes ago, GangGreenLantern said: Draft coming up? need some help? Already drafted, looking for some at a boys lol... Let er rip So I am a football novice (mostly follow NHL). I took over a team in a 10 team fantasy football league with some buddies from college and managed to win the #1 overall pick. The league is a non-PPR league that starts 2 QBs, 3 RBs, 3 WRs, TE, Flex, D and K. We keep 3 each year and my keepers were Brady, Dez Bryant and Brandin Cooks. I know I need to take a RB but who should I target? The "best available" RBs are Leonard Fournette, Marshawn Lynch, Kareem Hunt, Lamar Miller, Christian McCaffrey, Carlos Hyde, Ty Montgomery. My other thought was do I skip these guys and take the best QB available (Derek Carr or Cam Newton) and have the best QB tandem in the league or someone like Doug Baldwin, TY Hilton or Alshon Jeffery and have a stacked receiving core assuming running backs will likely get hurt and getting one or two with my 2nd and 3rd round picks could suffice?

Hey Jon.. I would definitely Target a RB especially in NON PPR, and with limited options. You can always get your 2nd QB a little later like a Mariota, Cousins, or even Dalton to pair with Brady. Fournette, McCaffery, and Hunt all rookies, so it's a roll of the dice. To me I think Volume is key with RBs, but also needs to be quality volume. (Look at Gurley last season, ton of volume, horrible Oline and Offense overall and his volume didn't equate to a whole lot.) Since this is a 3 keeper league you're traditionally ADP goes out the window, since 30 players are already of the board. So with that said , of all the RBs you mentioned the one I'm highest on is Hunt. He is in the best situation, (Andy Reid lead offense, RBs especially every down backs usually do well in fantasy in his system, solid OL, and Offense around him), AR has already said Hunt is the guy, and West and Spiller behind him are no threat. I would actually look to target 2 RBs back to back since you have Dez and Cooks already, and could get your 3rd WR a little later like K.Benjamin, M.Bryant, P.Garcon and some others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks GGL Looks good overall, but in a 10 team league I think your RBs are a little weak. Not sold on Fournette due to his lingering ankle/foot issues, and a Poor OL/QB. Henry/Coleman are time share guys and on the wrong side of the Time share. West is solid but more as a #3 or 4 guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangGreenLantern Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 FYI to Everyone. Tampa @ Miami has been reschedule to week 11 due to Hurricane Irma. Anyone with players from those teams make sure you substitute them because both teams will be on a bye week 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helpmeout Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hello GGL, i have a depth question for you. My roster: Cam DJ, Fournette, D. Henry, T. West, T. Coleman Baldwin, Jeffrey, K. Allen, Diggs, C. Coleman Ebron, Hooper 10 team standard scoring league My question is should i drop Hooper for Kevin White? I drafted Hooper in the final round, for good keeper value if he were to produce at that level (as well as a backup in case Ebron were to get injured). Should I drop him and throw away the possibility of that keeper value to pick up Kevin White with the hopes he becomes the WR1 in Chicago?

Should I drop him and throw away the possibility of that keeper value to pick up Kevin White with the hopes he becomes the WR1 in Chicago? With your depth at WR I wouldn't bother. K.White needs to show something first before I would drop anyone worth while to snag him. If you were weak at WR I would suggest it, but you're fine there. Not to mention Ebron is has been banged up and you may need Hooper sooner than you think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
American Hoyer Story Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 What's up, got a question..I am in a 9 keeper Dynasty League, my RB's are: DeMarco Murray, LeSean McCoy, Ezekial Elliot, Dalvin Cook, Bilal Powell and Derrick Henry...I've been thinking of trading McCoy while his value is high, but at the same time I think he will have a fantastic year?! So far I've been offered AMari Cooper and Tevin Coleman for McCoy, the only reason I am considering that trade is because I am weak at WR: AJ Green, Sammy Watkins, Stefon Diggs and DeVante Parker. Again it's a 9 person keeper dynasty league. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be against trading away McCoy since he is 29, and this is a Dynasty league, but like you mentioned I also think he will have a great year so you want to make sure you get maximum value.
