How much you trying to wager that he’s not ??

He'll be 36 in November, and 2 teams have disposed of him in the last 3 years. And then Pit signed him for the league minimum. That's not a good sign for a QB with his career pedigree.

The best argument for Russ making it all the way through the season is that Fields may just suck worse.

Fired one of the $10 chain-mover contests on DK to change it up from UD. But it's always tough reacclimating to a different ADP environment.

AR, Maye, Dimes

Gibbs, Mondre, Singletary, Javonte (Payton's comments make me want to capitulate), Davis, Shipley

Wilson, Nabers, Diggs, Odunze, Lockett, Downs, Raymond, Osborn

Andrews, Henry, Juwan

Wish I was a little stronger at WR, but covered everywhere else. Probably should have either stopped at 5 RBs or found a different second TE to get to 9 WRs.

ETA: Is there a way to name drafts on DK like on UD?

No way to name drafts .

You know you are getting old when you wake up with an injury.

Russ can still chuck the ball. He's lost his elite ability to extend the play. This is what made him an elite QB. This makes him now just an average QB at best within a system that limits his mistakes. He holds on to the ball too long just like Fields does. He can still bring a team back from behind on occasion but will also break your heart with an untimely fumble or interception. He will wear his welcome out in Pitt with his fake personality. He should be able to lead this team to wins but it will be ugly too watch. Fans will soon be screaming for Fields. I do think they will find a way to utilize Fields. I suspect that neither will be back next year. I am rooting for Fields to maybe be able to fix his issues but that doesn't look promising this far into his career.

This looks good.

Another WR probably would have been better.

I like your TE's a lot.

Teams on DK seem to look better than UD.

I didn't know you could name teams on UD.

If I could name my names on DK they'd be, Sunk Cost 1, Sunk Cost 2, Sunk Cost 3....

Metcalf goes around pick 26 on UD. I took him on the 2/3 turn. He's not as appealing on a PPR site. He does have 10 TD potential in this new offense. I've mixed up my picks in this range. I'm pretty optimistic with the coaching change. The Hawks have perennially ran the fewest plays in the league. Grubbs should speed things up and be more creative. Locket is showing signs of being done. Their offensive line was beat up and horrible last year. It should be better although still not a great unit. He gives me a QB out with Geno later.

I'm good at rationalizing picks even though this is not a fist pump situation.

You know that when Josh Palmer looks good you probably waited too long to get receivers.

Lol I like metcalf but I like
Dj Moore better. Not sure where he goes on UD.

Staying away from Johnston and got sniped on Chark .

Definitely. The extra 2 rounds gives you so much more flexibility. I’d probably be happy with that WR group on UD but felt a little light for DK.

I like to name my teams with the date the draft was completed, my draft position, the structure, and whether it was a slow or fast draft. This is mainly for easy analysis as I scroll through my teams throughout the season.

This is an example from the puppy 2.

DJ goes pick 31. I like him too but his ceiling is capped unless one of the other two gets hurt. I think DK will at minimum put up DJ numbers but has a higher ceiling.

Got sniped on all the qbs I wanted to stack and decided to take 4

Qb : Tua , Baker , Levis , Dimes

Rb : Rashaad , Zamir , Zeke , Charbonnet, Gibson , Gainwell

Wr: Chase , Kupp , DjM, Tank, Btjr, Roman, Corley , Beckham

Te: Pitts , Bowers

Probably would have just gone one of the other 3 positions, but you’re pretty solid everywhere.

Weekly QB floor should be very high.

Tried to push Estime one extra round when I took Dimes . Should have just taken Estime .

I mean you already had Roman...

But either way I'm pretty sure 4 QBs is -EV.

I kinda zoned out for this one.

QB - Burrow, Caleb, Fields

RB - Pacheco, Swift, Chase, Vidal, Gibson, Gainwell

WR - Chase, Deebo, Pickens, Flowers, Lockett, Burton, D. Robinson, Jefferson

TE - Engram, Kmet, Dulcich

Can't believe there are 1,500 posts already in July, what a bunch of degens.
I don't play best ball at all due to geography but wondering if you guys play on sites other than underdog. So kind of like online poker, are there better edges on different sites like let's say Yahoo or something or is everyone solid now?

DK is apparently much softer than UD.

From the rosters I've seen in my drafts I'd say there's still a significant edge.

of course this c*** who has no idea what they're doing would snipe Kyler

UD and DK are the primary sites I play, and DK definitely seems softer. But the softness can be both good and bad. You may have a better advance rate, but once you get to the playoffs, there are likely to be more super teams.

Drafters is another site. They only offer cumulative scoring contests from w1-17. I fired some, but I’m not a fan of that structure compared to the playoff advancing style.

There are a few others I’ve seen YouTube streamers playing like FFPC.

lol

At least you got good value on Reed and still have multiple QB outs.

Dude is old school. Who needs WR's?

What's really funny is I didn't want to draft a QB before the 10th round, but then Puka, MHJ, and McBride were all there so it made sense to go after Kyler.
