I will be at work until 5:30 both days. Any way we could push it to 6?
That put's it at 11pm for me and the wife.
Friday I am out all day and then have a live auction draft starting at 6:30 my time (1:30 EST) and will last a few hours, so I can't do Friday. Saturday from 6 am to 9 am EST I've got a kids Bday party to be at, but after that nothing. Have nothing on Sunday, so any time then. I'm assuming your working from 9-5 essentially?
What's your Tuesday through Thursday looking like (27-29)?
The season doesn't start until Thursday, so we could do any of the days the following week up until the opener.

I dont mean to be insulting but i feel like i could list a bunch of 2nd tier RBs or WRs (or QBs for that matter) and make the same point.
I understand that waiver wire is where championships are made, but honestly why DJ over Kelce (not trying to be cheeky here) Just give me good reasons.
Top tier RB's are always going to get more points than the top tier TEs. Another key point is that the Fantasy point drop of RB's from top tier to next tier is 27%. Given that TE top tier drop off is more, there are far fewer top tier TE's and they produce less than even a second tier RB and WR. Look at last years points:
All of these RB's were ahead of Kelce:
1 Todd Gurley LAR 313.1
2 Saquon Barkley NYG 294.8
3 Christian McCaffrey CAR 278.5
4 Alvin Kamara NO 273.2
5 Ezekiel Elliott DAL 252.2
6 Melvin Gordon LAC 225.5
7 James Conner PIT 225.0
8 Kareem Hunt CLE 204.2
9 Joe Mixon CIN 200.4
10. David Johnson ARI 196.7
All these WR were above Kelce:
1 Tyreek Hill KC 241.0
2 Antonio Brown OAK 219.7
3 Davante Adams GB 218.6
4 DeAndre Hopkins HOU 218.5
5 Julio Jones ATL 212.8
6 Mike Evans TB 198.4
7 Adam Thielen MIN 194.3
In Rounds 1 & 2 you can get 1 of each of these, or possibly even 2 RB's. After these guys, which puts you at the end of Round two and on in to round 3, Kelce will be drafted. However, there were 8 other players last year within 20 points over the course of the season to Kelce (Excluding QBs again). George Kittle was the next closest TE with 21 points behind.
After the 3rd round, you start looking at 100 point drop off from those first and 2nd round RB/WR. Excluding the freak season last year for the top 3 TE's, you don't see that kind of drop off with your TEs. I can afford to lose a top tier TE, I cannot afford to lose a top tier RB and need to have as close to the same production replacement as the RB. Drafting a TE in the later rounds, won't get you that far off.
It's about shoring up your flex and a backup when the inevitable occurs.

I for sure go RB and WR early and often (didnt take a QB until the 10th round...Brees). The forum still seems split on the Kelce/Johnson debate. I probably change it back and forth 10 times between now and our draft on 8/25. I think my sticking points are the with TEs there are 5 or so elite and then everyone else but, conversely, I have to have 3 servicable RBs any given Sunday to maneuver around bye weeks.
Elite TEs don't win championships.
E. Engram, OJ Howard, V. McDonald, J. Cook, D. Njoku, D. Goedert, M. Andrews, C. Herndon, and J. Doyle
Will all be there in rounds 5, 6, 7, 8, and 11+.

RB's and WR's are definitely the way to go. Love taking advantage of PPR rules as well. I think QB's are deep this year. I honestly may go for someone like a Deshaun Watson in the middle rounds as a rebound candidate, or Russell Wilson as a sleeper this year. Nice job on winning your league and that semifinal match! Sometimes you need a little Luck to win (no pun intended)!
You can quite literally draft a good qb in rounds 10+, I'm not looking to take one until then, and only if the value is there, could wait till round 12.

I know it's still very early so if anyone needs time to do some mock drafts over the next few weeks, I understand.

I am very flexible on this topic. What ever you all decide will work for me. Tell me what position I will draft from and I will make it work. Looking forward to another fun season
After the first three pick their draft position, you will be able to pick from the positions still left open. As for the draft date, the closer to (or within) pre-season week 4 is probably preferable to all.
All,
Preseason week 4 (5 according to NFL because of the Hall of Fame Game) starts on Friday 30, Aug. We can do it that weekend: Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. As far as times go, I prefer later in the evening, past 7pm...unfortunately being in the UK right now, that would be around 2pm EST and 11am PST.
What's your thoughts on this?

Never mind, I read last years thread again. I’m good to go.
Ya, the first time we did it like this was last year. I mean if nobody really liked it, we can change it back and essentially what is listed above would be the draft order (unless some spots open up, and then moves can occur). However, since 1st pick isn't always the most desirable pick in a Fantasy Football draft, we tried out having the last place person pick their draft position and then go from there. It went more smoothly, to me, when setting the draft order this way, as opposed to the old way.
But again, if the league would rather not do it this way, we can always change it back.

Draft position choice order is based off of last years final standings and is as follows:
1. @WarGhost21
3. Luck Be A Lady
4. @onebad150
5. @Bluefire4
6. Myself
7. @BPindy
8. Team Hulce
10. @Btown_Colt
Since we have confirmation from the first four, @WarGhost21 can you start us off with what position you want to draft from, followed by @Matthew Gilbert?

I’m in, are we using ESPN again?
I'll be reactivating the league here soon and send out emails. Ideas on what days might be good for you? I more it's still early, so its very loose dates.

I will enter if there's an opening for me. Haven't done a fantasy league with you guys and it sounds fun. Let me know!
Thanks, I'll keep you in the loop.

Going to be starting the league again here soon and looking to see who's interested in participating again this year.
Once I get all the ins and outs, I'll start determining draft order. If you are in, please provide some tentative weekends or weekdays that you think would work for you. Thanks and look forward to this season.

Until we're actually competitive in games, we're just pretenders.

Haha, nothing passive-aggressive here.
it wasn't, it was pretty straightforward
QuotePS - Even if you're joking, the idea of the Patriots getting "inside info" from Inman is laughable. It has literally been a decade since the Patriots lost a game to the Colts. I can only hope those posters who mentioned it were being sarcastic. You haven't been a true threat in the AFC in over a decade. Sorry. Truth hurts, I'm sure.
Is it really beyond the realm of possibility, considering everything belicheck has done in the past to gain an advantage? I don't think it's unreasonable to believe he would approach Inman about the topic if the time comes.
-
One year for belicheck to get the information he needs about our plays and schemes. Smart. Trashy, but smart.

Hell, we have Colt fans who still do not think he is a #1 WR.
Because he doesn't have the prototypical size.

The blue on blue is the best looking versions of our uniforms imo. I wanna see what a blue helmet would look like with them too.

What's with the arm measurements?Usually it's from tip-to-tip. This way you can get a better feel for their arm lengths since your arm span is supposed to be equivalent to your height.
Like 34"? Great, where are you measuring from?

That is one big assumption. He needs to come through for us to be a top 5. We can only hope he does.
Which of the following did you mean?
He needs to come through, for us to be a top 5.
He needs to come through for us, to be a top 5.
Subtle difference, different meanings.

My take from most of these draft analyst. None other these guys are truly spectacular and most need a good amount of developmental work to be good in the NFL.

I don’t give a rip about how funchess played last year. He has a better QB and coaches that will use him the right way.
So you're faith in Funchess' success is as grounded in speculation as mine is.

I can see great things from Cain if he is back at 100%
Just my view from TigerTown
Cain is one reason Inman has not been resigned
Exactly what I was trying to say, if he returns to form.
