I'll start...

In a dynasty, non-PPR format...who would you rather lose Brandin Cooks or Allen Robinson...assuming you have to trade one away, which would could you do without...?

I think with Non-PPR and Dynasty, I'd rather lose Cooks in a trade.

Cooks has more value short term so I think in a trade, you could get more in return for Cooks than Robinson. I think in the long run you're looking at a wash. Robinson will get more red zone looks than Cooks because the Pats use more tight ends / running backs / slot when down there. Heck it may be a wash short term, but some schlub is going to be all TOM BRADY, PATRIOTS, DROOL and overpay.

I'll take the guy in the offense that's going to move the ball. Jacksonville is headed for some QB controversies this year.

Last weekend, I pulled out of a Brandin Cooks trade...and drafted Kareem Hunt...

Someone took Hunt wayyy too early last night, like 5th round.. Before Ware got hurt. So lucky. Last place in our league has to take the SATs so I'm starting off a little handicapped

My commish rescheduled our draft from next weekend to today. Yahoo sent no reminder emails to anyone. No one showed up to draft except him.

He's the projected number 1 team now, and I got a rapist QB I can't **** stand.

I'm pretty much out of the FF game now, this was my last remaining team and I don't even want it. I won this league last year.

That draft can't stand...that's stupid...

Late to this, but I'd say long, long term I'd rather lose Cooks. I think Robinson is a top 10 WR talent and Cooks is more system dependent to be a stud non-PPR WR. But honestly, in fantasy, two years is a long time, and I think Cooks will top Robinson the next two years. I expect next offseason one could trade Cooks for Robinson + ... only because Bortles sucks.

That's because you're from Penn State.

But, considering what Cooks is going to do this year, I don't think this a question anymore.

So whats a sensible round to snag Zeke? I took him in the 3rd, even if his six game stands I had the 3rd pick and got Bell and Ty Montgomery later on, so I think I can manage until his suspension is over.

I'm back down to the one FF league that I care about (year 10 or 11 I think, of an auction dynasty...one that just had a live draft in OCMD) and I could not be happier...

Going up against Alex Smith this week. Didn't expect that big of a hole to climb out of on Sunday.

Post by **mikey** » Fri Sep 08, 2017 9:02 am

Someone decided to start Alex Smith on a Thursday...? Is it a 32-team league by any chance?

14 team. Irma forced his hand as Winston is his other QB.

Here's the best part. Cutler was his backup, so he cut him to pick up Smith.

Wow, he grabbed you right by the p**** on that move...dude is makin moves...

You can live vicariously through me...I drafted Kareem Hunt and played him last night against a guy who left Mike Gillislee on the bench. So my pants are plenty snug this morning...

Post by **dodint** » Fri Sep 08, 2017 12:21 pm

In that league with the draft shenanigans, both my QBs are probably down this weekend. One had his game cancelled and the other is Cam Newton who only has one shoulder and was just downgraded on the injury report just now. Yay.

Post by **mikey** » Fri Sep 08, 2017 12:24 pm

I have Newton and Winston, so I'm prepared to win without a QB this week because my team is just so damn good looking...style points matter when you're playing against the same people for 10+ years...

Me too. Obvs.

Post by **Beveridge** » Fri Sep 08, 2017 12:45 pm

Newton will play. Rivera was quoted as saying that's how the form says to put it. See Brady,Tom.

Post by **dodint** » Fri Sep 08, 2017 1:02 pm

It was weird that he was downgraded on a Friday, though. To me. Thanks!

I took Zeke in the second in one league and wanted to take him in the second in the other two but he was drafted before I could get him

It's now looking like anyone who drafted him outside the too five is gonna get amazing value out of him because he might not miss a game

Anyone doing daily? Find it impossible to make a lineup without Freeman at $7000 on dk.

Fantasy football is officially back baby. Would have cruised to an easy win, nearly 40 pts from my goddamned defense, but lost Robinson for the season and D Johnson for maybe half the season. Combined with 2 guys I had to sit for the postponed game and I will move to 0-1. I love this game.

I almost picked up TJ Watt as a yinzer joke and passed. Whoops.
