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
Hahah.
I keep landing 1.04s. Up to 20% Puka through 50 Puppies. Sometimes I'll get him at 1.05.
Advanced 8 of my 20 NBA Playoff teams, and 6 of them can still field a full finals team. Hopefully the Pistons and Knicks both win their next series, and I might have a shot at getting to the finals.
This is the one with the fewest casualties (only lost D. White)

Nice! Good luck.
It's Best Ball Breakfast time. Let's go!!
Levitan and Sam teams both took Germie Bernard. And ETR seems to be high on him. I just don't see it. He was already a pretty questionnable prospect. And he'll either be a rookie slot playing with Rodgers who hates rookies or with a bad QB. Not to mention, those mid-2nd round rookie WRs have mostly been huge traps the last 3-5 years.
Pittman, Metcalf, Muth, and Warren/Dowdle will all be ahead of him in the target pecking order.
DK Milly reward of the day - draft 4, get a ticket.
Turns out I won’t be saving as much money as I thought.
Pretty happy w this hero rb team
Spoiler
Are we taking black over James as the backup rb for the Niners ?
Looks pretty good to me.
The Dachsund dropped earlier. 4 x $8
Hopefully it's not full before the schedule releases.
Fun little 0 RB team. Black would've been perfect on this team.

The number of times the underdog app has crashed this year causing me to auto pick is infuriating. It hasn’t happened to me often in the last 2 yrs but this year I think I have over 30 picks it’s happened on
Obviously I need to get better at queuing ppl up , but the app should just work better
That’s really frustrating. I’ve seen complaints about that. I’ve also seen people who literally can’t draft because the location indicator isn’t working properly.
Did you guys see the AI Mock Draft tool from Herzig?
https://on-the-clock.replit.app/
It's an 18 round, 20 second draft where you go against various AI profiles, and then grades your draft.

The biggest thing that didn't seem very realistic was how WR heavy the room was in comparison to what we typically see with most rooms being more RB heavy.
Spoiler
I saw him mention something about it. It's a pretty cool tool, especially for someone who has limited funds or time to draft. But it's not for me when I can simply draft actual teams with that time instead haha.
Justin loves AI.
Where I think it could be even better is if you could upload the draft board and have it grade an actual draft.
That would be a cool feature.
Duuuuvvaaaallll
Fun Weekly Winners team I did yesterday for Cinco De Mayo. Big 9ers stack with the majority of their home games (one of which is in Mexico)
Spoiler
I guess I already have 16% Hunter in the Puppy lol.
I’m at 21% haha, I’m very happy w my 0% Parker Washington in both pre and post
I’ve barely made it to Hunter’s range in my slows so far, but I attacked him pre-draft. 3rd highest WR at 14%.
Jakobi is my 0% Jags player.
I was 8% Parker pre. Will probably be 4-6% post. He’s a good fit with Trevor and Coen’s system and don’t think his emergence was fluky.
Jags are probably one team where you want to mix all of them in but don’t heavily stack it, since they can’t all be successful together.
Though, I don’t have much Strange either. He gives Cade Otton vibes. Too many target earners ahead, plus Jags drafted 2 TEs.
