What's NFFC take off the top? That other site I asked you about (forget name off my head) only took like 12%

Problem is they allow trades.

I found that this year 2,3, and 4 is the worst place to pick.

The only RB of the big 4 that I think is going to live up to ADP is Gurley.

There is still time for Elliot but his Oline is a mess this year .

Kamara will outshine Bell and Johnson baring injury .

Yea 1st was a nice pick. Gurley truly in his own tier. I picked 7th in one and got A brown. I knew would end up with him, Barkley, or kamara there. Also really liked 10th or 11th pick this year. Sets you up for two stud WR.


It's pretty fun doing mocks before the year starts to try and find that perfect spot



Although I'll say that in both my leagues the guy who picked 1st is struggling and currently ranked in the bottom half of the league. That third round reversal is brutal for the #1 pick.

That's a deal breaker pats. I did masters a couple years ago because they take the smallest amount off the top. But they allow trades. Do you remember me telling you about the guy who traded david Johnson for christine michael. I ended up losing to that guy in the championship and that was a high stakes league.


Nffc is 20% I think

2-3 people in a 12 team league could technically game the waiver/FAAB system

Edge would be minimal in a 12 teamer. Where it would be better is a 14 where the wire is so thin.

The wire gets pretty damn thin in a 12 team with 20 roster spots. Especially at RB

20 spots true, yeah.

Yeah, that could kinda be gamed in spots. Not a ton though. Like person A lets person B get a cause they need it more. But it'd be pretty negligible.

Nothing close to trades. I do think most trades aren't collusion though. It's just there are a lot of idiots that once they are out of it, they're sick of getting emails so they just click buttons. Or they're just dumb. Very few leagues don't have bad trades.

Yes. I'll never do another league that allows trades after my experience with it. It has league ruining potential with one move.

Chop has experienced my wrath in a league with trades JC.

I did the RX 500 league awhile ago. Some clown starts like 0-3, deals McCoy (in Chip Kelly's 1st year) for Gio and Welker to one of the best teams in the league IIRC.

And I went nuclear for a few days in a thread. Was pretty funny. But what can you really do? If people say the deal isn't that bad then unless you wanna tell everyone to bet you 500 bucks that Shady will outscore these clowns then you can't really say much. Better to just have no trades.

We'll see. Not gonna say a year in advance.

I don't really like the waivers stuff much either tbh. The league I did which is 10 teams, 30 man rosters and 1 move per year I like. Just very hands off.

One move per year sucks for defenses. I guess you draft at least 3 DSTs?

2, that's a bug. Should be 3 imo. Draft 3 team QB's.

Also, we draft actual tight end players. That's stupid too. Should draft team tight ends. People say "Oh what if a team has 2 good TE's?"

What if? That hasn't happened since Hernandez was framed for murder. And TE's get injured a ton.

I've never joined the RX league is because it's not PPR.

PPR is the only way to play fantasy football IMO

Is it time to start worrying about AB if he has another average game this week?

Everybody down on keenan allen against the Rams but I actually think he will do well working from the slot, especially in PPR. Rams are going to score and rivers will have to throw to keep up. Allen probably the best route runner in the league.

I think beckham goes off this week. Wouldn't be surprised if he got 15 + targets.


And will AJ Green continue to have a career year?
