2024 Fantasy Football Thread
Welcome to the 2024 fantasy season, where I'm officially addicted to best ball. I've been drafting since the end of Jan
If DK, then for sure 5
If UD, if a value drops to me im fine taking 5, if not I’m also good with 4
Posting this as a psa why not to go heavy rb early
Qb: Dak , Burrow
Rb: Saquon , Etienne , Rashaad , Kamara , Gus
Wr : Jefferson , DJM, Shakir , Cooks, Johnston , Bateman. Mims, Boyd , Slayton , Jauan Jennings
Te: Muth , Otton , Gesecki
First 3 can work. Kamara and Gus is where you went off the rails.
Also, should have punted QB, especially without early stacking partners.
Is this too much TE capital? I took Juwan in the 18th for correlation w the Lv WRs
Qb - Caleb, Rodgers, Nix
Rb - Breece, Monty, swift, charb, Eli
Wr - Adams, DJM, Tee, Addison, Mwill, Meyers, Franklin
Te - Kincaid, Kmet, Juwan
I think you’re strong enough at RB/WR for it to work, especially paired with Kmet who I expect to have a low weekly floor.
I had a high capital TE build yesterday.
Caleb, Carr, McCarthy
Moss, Swift, Chandler, Gibson, Foreman
ARSB, Olave, DJM, Tee, Reed, Watson, Baker
Kincaid, Goedert, Hock
Went Hock for the w17, plus plenty of coverage for his recovery. But looking back, I think Baker should have been a 6th RB for the 3-6-6-3.
Took kamara cause every wr I wanted got taken lol. And took Gus cause I thought with the bye week issues I needed a 5th
Sometimes you just have to take players you don’t like as much for the sake of construction.
And would have just added a different RB later than Gus for the bye week concern.
I probably would still land on at least 5 RBs, even if I start with the first 3, but just later on for the final 2.

Keaton Mitchell or Likely over Guerendo or Demercado so you have some correlation with Stroud.
Jeudy or Elijah moore for some correlation with Tua.
After taking Kyren, I would've shifted focus back to WR.
Yeah, that team needs a lot of good fortune at WR to make it.
I would have also stopped at 5 RBs after Khalil.
I hadn't fired a DK fast in a few weeks. I rarely go 4 TEs, but it felt appropriate here. I liked Mayer more than the 20th round WRs.
AR, Caleb
Breece, Cook, Brooks, Chandler, Khalil, Bucky
Olave, Evans, Zay, Rome, JSN, Adonai, Downs, McMillan
Henry, Fant, Juwan, Mayer
Seems good. Agree with going 4te on dk when you go that late
Thanks for the feedback. Are y'all not liking any of the players who are gonna receive renewed chance at being elite with new teams? Or is it more that their ceiling to contribute across several weeks may feel capped?
Are you talking about players like Saquon, Keenan, Henry, Mixon, Ridley, etc.? I'm taking some of each, with Saquon and Ridley being the least. Anyone else specific you were thinking of?
I’m in a draft and was planning on doing a double stack and I’ve been sniped on almost all my guys lol
Here’s my botched attempt at stacking
Qb : Daniels , Rodgers , Fields
Rb: CMC, Rashaad , Pollard , Zeke , Laube
Wr: Deebo , Kupp , Kirk , Dhop, Lockett, Johnston , Bateman , Michael Wilson , Slayton
Te : Engram , Otton , Fant
Was going for a Niners / Jags stack

Jeudy possibly. Haven't looked much into what he's done well enough in NFL. Definitely Quez & Cedric who have areas they do really well but perhaps haven't just found the team willing to give them deeper dives. Cedric possession and Quez speed. Oh and Rondale who I think Falcons will like and Kirk might can use effectively.
Sometimes you also can check their ypr 15 is really good but sometimes you have players who have theirs so low as a result of not being used in a standard fashion. I haven't done a ton of study on the ceilings in this regard. But definitely guys with great ypr are good to consider.

Curious how this team performs. I don't draft most these guys but one line of thinking I have says this could be a REALLY good squad if the differences I see in the league can be more pinned on coaches and they pull the rug out on that issue.
Ofc this is my perspective missing the days I first started paying attention to NFL and nostalgia about how a friend was able to approach player assessments
DK Milly - Overall fairly happy with this one except for the fact I got sniped on all my Seattle bring backs*
QB - AR, Caleb
RB - Bijan, Pollard, Singletary, Pierce, Laube, Guerendo
WR - Waddle, Moore, Pittman, Godwin, Odunze, Downs, Wandale, M. Wilson, Toney
TE - Kmet, Taysom, Okonkwo
Someone gets Kenneth Walker at 6.5 (I'm at 6.6)
Someone takes JSN at 9.6 (I'm at 9.7)
Someone gets Fant at 17.6 (I'm at 17.7)

Jeudy is interesting. I don't have much, because I'm usually drafting RBs/QBs/Goedert in that range. But I can squint and see it with Jeudy at his price, especially if reports of him playing in the slot are true. With that said, Jeudy has been pretty underwhelming and guys rarely perform better when they change teams during or right after their rookie contract. Deshaun could also actually just be washed, especially coming off of shoulder surgery.
I'll probably be something like 6% Amari, 6% Jeudy, 10% Njoku, 2% Chubb, 6% Ford, 6% Foreman, and 6% Deshaun for the Cleveland guys. I've been adding some Jameis in the last round or 2 in superflex with Cleveland stacks.
I'm not bothering with Cedric or Quez. I'll play those teams through the top few guys. I think you'd rather be tacking on 1st or 2nd year cheap players with upside at the end of the draft rather than multi-year journeyman.
Although, I do draft a little Rondale, mostly through correlation. He could have a spike week or two. And I don't think much of Mooney.

The triple whammy. I think it still turned out pretty well if the TEs can find some good weeks.
I accidentally misclicked Geno earlier in a Sea/Chi mega stack, when I already had Caleb. I'm not used to DK's interface and had my mouse over the draft button. A player above Chuba, who was my target, went and Geno was the next player on the list, and I clicked too fast haha. I was planning a Bryce stack instead. It could still work out. A lot of worse misclicks I could have made.
Caleb, Geno, Carr
Kamara, Swift, Charb, Lloyd, Bucky (consolation prize in the next round instead of Bryce), Laube
Puka, Olave, DJM, Keenan, JSN, Legette, McMillan, Baker
McBride, Bowers, Mayer - TE cuffing? I forgot I had Bowers when I clicked Mayer, but it was between him and someone like Shipley, Hull, etc., so it's whatever.
Bbm
Qb - hurts, dimes
Rb - Javonte, singletary, ekeler, kendre, Vidal, Braelon, CEH
Wr - AJB, London, Nabers, Godwin, Reed, Burton, Wandale
Te - Ferguson, Bowers
Got distracted watching the USMNT game and accidentally drafted Allen instead of Hurts w AJB
Qb - Allen, Nix
Rb - Gibbs, Pollard, C Brown, Vidal, Gibson, Estime
Wr - AJB, Diggs, Godwin, Worthy, Samuel, Mwill, Franklin, Tez Walker
Te - Bowers, Schultz
Got sniped on Cook, Shakir, Davis, and Knox when trying to dbl stack Josh lol. I couldn’t get myself to draft Claypool
