2024 Fantasy Football Thread

I was about to ask how many Chase/Higgins teams there must be. Also how many Nico/BTJ teams?

Also, I do not like drafting on DK for several reasons. I hope UD drops some low dollar contests soon.

DK 3 dollar. Pick 3.

QB) Nix, Fields, Dart

RB) Barkley, Irving, Swift, Dobbins, R Davis, M Sanders

WR) Tyreek, Worthy, Sutton, Waddle, Mims, W Robinson, K Allen, D Thornton

TE) Kraft, Strange, Meyer

Looks good. The TB/MIA stack without Tua or Baker is an easy way to get a little unique. I think...quick,someone check the data.

SF - Pitts to Miami, one time?

Hurts, Tua, Dart

Achane, Chase, Kamara, Pollard, Giddens, Corum, Herbert

Puka, DeVonta, Ridley, Pearsall, Coleman, Wandale, Malik

Goedert, Pitts, Chig

Next couple of SF, I think I'm going to experiment with pushing QB2

Caleb, Dimes, Shough, Jacoby

Bucky, Jacobs, Walker, Mondre, Bigsby, Brooks, James

Chase, MHJ, Olave, Downs, Burden, QJ

Loveland, Strange, Juwan

Well it was a fun experiment, but I think I prefer my other way of building SF teams.

Burrow, Shough, Dart, Sanders

Jeanty, Achane, Henderson, Tuten, Sampson, Brooks

AJB, Tee, Evans, Diggs, Mooney, Slayton, Iosivas

Kincaid, Gesicki, Juwan

Pushed qb a little far bc Nico was available in the 3rd and then got way behind at te so ended up with a 4664

SF

Tua, Rodgers, AR, Milroe

Bijan, Henry, Walker, Pollard, Wright, Monangai

Nico, Waddle, Diggs, Pittman, Shaheed, Austin

Goedert, Otton, Juwan, Arroyo

Lmao

Overall, it looks pretty good. I would have taken Reynolds or Lazard over Thornton, but it's a small nitpick.

I think you probably want to end up with 5 QBs total in these builds to give another out. But yeah, I think they're probably too thin to actually win the contest and mostly avoid them myself. It is fun looking at the WRs/RBs in them, though haha.

I think you could have stuck with 3 TEs. But you're strong enough elsewhere, it's probably not a big deal. Still nice to have two guaranteed week 1 starters not having a QB through 3 rounds.

Alright, I have a scenario for anyone who wants to chime in.

I'm otc in the 18th. This is my team.

Jayden, Ward

CMC, Pacheco, BRob, Spears, Davis, Blue

AJB, Worthy, Ridley, Rome, Shaheed, Burden

Ertz, Chig, Juwan

Do you take Shough or Lockett?

I think I probably over spent at RB and would prefer to have both, but alas.

Its close and I think optimal choice is Shough, but I have trouble stopping at 6 wr (I think I’ve only done it 1x non SF), so probably Lockett for me

Darren Waller lol. Thanks, Miami.

Brutal, no idea what to do with that haha

I'm not touching until we see what he looks like in camp.

I think im bidding 100% faab on him in my 14tm 2x tep dynasty league, as he’ll be by far the best player on the ww all year

It's Shough or literally any other WR than Lockett. You've already got Spears, Ridley, and Chig. No need to overdo it on an offense that's likely to be bad by taking a dusty WR. If you did want another TEN WR, then swing for the fences with Dike or Ayo.

Fair enough, I think Lockett is a decent click and have taken him some with Ward. I'm basically not clicking any day 3 WRs in best ball.

I ended up going with Shough.

Yeah, this is probably the only spot where he's worth a shot right now. He's live to not make the team.

Re: Day 3 rookies, and even round 3 rookies (looking at you Kyle Williams).

2020-2023. Backup QBs that started at least 2 of the 3 playoff games in W15-W17.

Spoiler

Cheat codes in SF.

Meanwhile, Waller hates blocking more than Jonnu.

yeah I know last year was a pretty good year for the backups, but 2022 and 2021 not so much.

I'd like to go back to maybe 2018 to get a slightly larger sample.

I think all of those years look good, except 2021. So 3/4 there were some pretty big hits. I’d be interested to see a bigger sample.

You mix bets between stacking and w17 correlation, and you’re going to hit on some.

Plus, weeks 15-17 aren’t the only weeks they can help your roster.

Two backup QBs are simply going to add so much more upside to your roster in the long run than the other trash we are drafting in rounds 19-20. Most of those players are going to be zeros, anyways.

The place where it gets more dicey is where QBs like Flacco, Milroe, Shedeur, Cousins, etc are currently going, since they’re more expensive.

I also generally chase the rushing profiles like Milton, Willis, Mariota or the vet with experience profiles like Dalton, Mullens, etc.

Good points.
