Dynasty question.

I have Lamar and Allen in SF 1.5TEP start 10

Guy in my league really wants Lamar (obv)

My team is pretty stacked but I’m open to trading

What would an appropriate price be?

I’m thinking something like

Herbert, McBride, 2 1sts

For

Lamar , Andrews

But I have no idea how to value

Do you hold at 2 te here or grab an arroyo/taylor in the last rd?

Goff, JJ, Geno

Kyren, A Jones, Charbs, Ollie, B Smith, Blue, Tre ETN

ARSB, D Smith, Addison, Jeudy, Pittman, Diggs, Coker, Bech

Bowers, Kmet

Either 2 or 3 is fine for me. I'd lean towards 2 if I'm taking my TE1 so soon.

My first RB/RB/RB build. Could've been worse

Mahomes, Ward, Sanders

CMC, Jeanty, Breece, Stevenson, Mattison

Worthy, Olave, Ridley, Kirk, Hollywood, Coleman, Wandale, Bond, Watson

Kelce, Otton, Chig

I like it

I think I just drafted a good team, but maybe the least exciting team of all time haha

Goff, Maye, Carr

Saquon, Kyren, Neal, Sampson, Dowdle, Blue

Jsn, Tet, Olave, Meyers, Pittman, Ayomanor, AD Mitchell, MWill, Boutte

Laporta, Engram

Yeah, I haven't had a ton of luck with it either. A lot of times I set it up, Burrow goes unstacked or to the Chase Brown drafter in the 4th. But I do have a few of those double stacks.

Agreed. I think I'm clicking Hurts/DeVonta every time in that spot for the value and uniqueness. I was in the 3 spot and ended up getting DeVonta at 51. The 2 spot had Saquon and should have taken DeVonta and then assumed Hurts was coming back around, with the 1 spot targeting Burrow. He did take Hurts at 50.

I'd be surprised if he paid that. That's a lot, even for Lamar, especially with the TEP. I guess it depends on how he feels about Andrews. When making trades like that, I try to break it down by player.

Let's say Lamar is worth Herbert and at least 1.5 firsts, and possibly both firsts, since I'm guessing they're yours and will project late.

So even if we say Lamar = Herbert and both firsts, that just leaves McBride and Andrews.

Last year in my 12 tm league, I traded for Josh midseason. It's a SF 1.75 TEP league, start 10. I traded Stroud, my 25 and 26 firsts, and my 25 second for Josh, Kelce, and Mixon. I think I ended up winning the deal here, but I also knew there was a chance that Kelce and Mixon could be almost worthless by the time we got to the 2025 season. Still, I was happy to just get Josh. I won the ship, so my 25 first/seconds are 1.12 and 2.12

Sometimes I hold 2 TEs and sometimes I'll add a third. I think you made the right decision adding ETN, instead.

I think you did well.

Definitely not flashy but solid all around haha.

One of my goals at WR is for my first 2-3 picks to be a teams WR1. It seems like that's easier to do even if you don't start drafting WR until the 3rd or 4th round.

It makes it harder for me to gauge which opening strategy is going to be optimal, so I end up just trying to mix it up more often.

On a general basis, that seems pretty good, especially for the lower projected offenses. Like with Ridley, what's the #2 on Tenn really going to be worth? He should have a nice target share.

But it could dangerously cause you to be underweight guys like Tee, DeVonta, Jamo, Rome, etc. And while they may not start the season as the #1, they can still produce well enough as the #2 + have contingency if the #1 gets injured.

Got a horrible qb room and got sniped on literally every Carolina wr 10 picks before ADP, but still pretty happy with this squad

Fields, Bryce, Ward

CMC, Henderson, Warren, Sampson, Smith, Blue

CD, Wilson, D Smith, Zay, Ridley, Wandale, Bech, Slayton

Warren, Njoku, Sanders

I think the Panthers are live to draft Warren, so that could also work out. Though, that would completely kill Sanders.

Brutal to get sniped on receivers from that offense lol.

Fields/Wilson is nice. Could hit Ward/Ridley or Ward/Wan’Dale and Slayton.

In the last draft I just did, but I feel like most drafts have been going this way.

Out of 37 RBs drafted in the first 10 rounds
38% were taken at least 5 spots ahead of ADP
16% were taken at least 10 spots ahead of ADP

Out of 56 WRs drafted in the first 10 rounds
14% were taken at least 5 spots ahead of ADP
4% were taken at least 10 spots ahead of ADP

Speaking of reaching. Just saw a guy draft Tank Dell 34 spots ahead of ADP.

You know, the guy that isn't going to be playing at all this coming season.

Picking 185 with a current build of 3-5-5-2 including a Stafford-Puka stack.

A. Take the value with Gesicki
B. Complete the stack with Higbee

Caleb, Penix, Carr

Saquon, JT, Judkins, Javonte, Blue

Wilson, Tet, Rome, Ridley, Shaheed, Ayomanor, Nuk, Mwill, Savion

Loveland, Engram, Pitts

I swore I was never drafting Pitts again, but I was about to be locked out of qb after a huge run, so went Penix at 143 and Pitts 146

I think it’s pretty close and 20 spots that late doesn’t matter a ton. I probably take Higbee but I don’t feel strongly about it bc Gesicki is better in a vacuum

Haha I feel ya. I already mentioned earlier I plan to be around 20% Pitts once the real drafts begin.

I think the price is fine, but it’s hard for me to draft him after being ~20% last year and having 0 Pitts teams advance haha (I think I drafted about 500 teams last year so 0/100)

I was in a draft with Justin Herzig earlier and made a few observations.

1. He always stayed pretty close to ADP.

2. He only reached more than 5 spots a total of two times. Once he reached 9 spots to get his QB stack, and the other time he reached 11 spots for his QB3 and that was in the 200s.

3. His final build was 3-5-9-3

4. His build through the first 10 rounds was 0-4-6-0
a. I tend to go 1-3-5-1, but I like the idea of getting 4 RBs in the first half.

One adjustment I've made so far this season is being willing to punt both QB and TE. I don't do it often, but I do want to mix it up some.

I'd be interested to see his roster. I bet he could have even justified a 3-5-8-4 or 4-5-8-3.

I'm taking Higbee every time.

Here's the entire board so you can see what other options he had. He picked at 11

Had my fantasy baseball draft tonight. Lance Lynn and Luis Gil not seen. Will be able to add 3 more once waivers are open. Maikel Garcia was the only regret.

It’s a 3 year keeper league where we kee 5, 4, then 3.

Another pop quiz. Picking at 140, and looking to grab a CAR WR to set up Bryce as my QB2 at 149.

Not a fan of older WRs. Do I take the value in Thielen or reach 8 spots for Legette?

I go with both of Legette and Coker over Thielen even on DK
