Fantasy Football 2023

The ~week long draft started few days ago. 2QB/3WR/2RB/1TE/FLEX/DST/4Bench/No kicker Enhanced PPR.

So far, in order:

Joe Burrow
Stefon Diggs
Derrick Henry
Chris Olave
Rhamondre Stevenson
Kenneth Walker
Brock Purdy
Jayden Reed

Got KW3 about the right round. May have reached a bit early picking Jayden Reed but I'm fine with it.

My draft is today. 10 team Super flex, half PPR, no kickers. 2 keepers per team with round restrictions, draft pick trades allowed for future seasons. We have a guy who tanked HARD last year who has 2 firsts, 2 seconds, 2 thirds, and 3 fourths, so his team should be unbeatable.

Hit a snag in the last couple rounds. One of the managers drafted Mayfield...a 3rd QB on his roster. Only allowed 2. Think it's straightened out now.

Gonna draft the Lions Sam Laporta with my last pick. Token Lion, backup TE.

Didn't get Laporta. Draft roster:

Joe Burrow
Stefon Diggs
Derrick Henry
Chris Olave
Rhamondre Stevenson
Kenneth Walker
Brock Purdy
Jayden Reed
Brandon Aiyuk
NYJ
Brandin Cooks
Pat Freiermuth
AJ Dillion
Irv Smith

Nope. League hasn't had kickers in a couple years.

What's the payout in your league?

Then that isn’t fantasy football.

It's modern fantasy football Steve

It sounds like a poor man’s version of fantasy football. Amateur hour.

I wouldn't mind eliminating Defense (and I guess kicker). It's never fun when you lose because a defense puts up 20 points. But, I guess that's football also.

Fantasy Tressel Ball.

Yahoo gave me a D on my draft report card...picked to finish last in the league.  

All starts tonight.  Opponent still has Kelce on the playing roster.  Will see how it goes.

Christian Watson is out and Romeo Doubs is questionable against the Bears. Jayden Reed will get some run. Might bench Brandon Aiyuk and put Reed in.

Yahoo gave me a D on my FF draft and predicted I'd win 3 matchups all season. 2-0 so far.

Manager that beat me in last season's championship game because the Bills/Bengals got cancelled sits in last place now. He also lost Nick Chubb for the season last night.

Update on my SuperFlex league: my first two picks were Joe Burrow and Nick Chubb. My team is ass and all hope is lost. The best thing I can say about them is that Tank Dell had a big week on my bench.

Picked up Jerome Ford and Zack Moss this week. Might actually win!

Already knocked off the league leader this week and still have KW3 playing tomorrow.  Will move up to 3rd place.  KW has a bye next week but think I'll be fine.

Burrow has been having a shitty start to the season. Yahoo bagged on my pick of Brock Purdy at 67 when his ADP was like 126.  Put up nice numbers today

20 Comp, 1 Inc, 283 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD, 1 Sack, 2 Rush Att, 1 Rush TD, 17 Pass FD, 1 Rush FD

Going into week 10, now at 7-2 and on top of the league by a game. Beat last weekend's opponent (a fellow Spartan) 344.10 to 244.55

Manager I'm playing this coming weekend has 6 players on bye and hasn't made a move yet...likely capitulating.

All looks good now...usually when the wheels fall off.

Spartan co-worker knocked off the guy I was tied with past weekend to put me in 1st.  Was supposed to win only 3 weeks this season, but 11-3 instead.  Yahoo's draft grades mean dick with the league's roster/scoring settings.

#8 is no slouch at 6-8 in the 1/4 finals. Lot of matchups to look at going forward.

Welp, the #8 team is gonna knock me out in the 1st round by at least 50. The #7 is gonna down the #2 by about the same. Both the 7 & 8 scored over 360.

That sounds like an awful combination. Do you eat peanut butter hamburgers, too?

It’s a staple here up north.

When did you move North of the Bridge?

8 team league. I have the 2nd most points. I have to win next week, and current #4 has to lose or I'm out of the playoffs.

Have the tie breaker in my pocket already.
