live bar league draft (at the bar so it was a drunken shitshow)
last night. Here's what I ended up with. Drafting 1.08, 13-team league, 0.5 PPR

QB: Justin Fields
RB: Josh Jacobs
RB: Rhamondre Stevenson
WR: Cooper Kupp
WR: Tyler Lockett
TE: Tyler Higbee
FLEX: Breece Hall

BENCH
RB: Raheem Mostert
RB: Tank Bigsby
WR: Skyy Moore
WR: Marvin Mims
WR: Zay Flowers

I would really like this team but TEs kept getting drafted way earlier than ADP and I ended up punting the position pretty hard. My primary target was going to be Darren Waller at 5.08 but he went at... 4.02?

I love Hyatt and loved him pre-actual draft. It makes me lol that Doltos hated him and then his giants drafted him.

Hyatt does seem like a late-season-high-octane pick like Amon St Brown was.

I'd love it if he was, oh I dunno, an immediate-season-high-octane pick so I could start him as my WR3 over the remaining fruit salad of mediocrity that is my bench.

I’m a Najee stan because he holds a special place in my heart. I swept my home keeper league for the first time because he was a solid 15-20pt RB1 his rookie season, and during the final Monday night game of our championship I was down 9 with just him left and 2 minutes remaining in the Browns v Steelers game. I joked it was over because the only way I was winning was if he suddenly ripped off a 40 yard TD despite the game basically being over and the Steelers already winning.

Well guess what happened.

I kept him into last year and I will admit he was extremely disappointing so I tossed him back in the pool, but I think the foot plate really limited him. If he had fallen back to me in our keeper league I was absolutely snagging him again but it wasn’t meant to be. Godspeed my front-flipping runboy.

One team has a "bye" each week where they play against a dummy team (since Sleeper only does even numbers of teams). Record-wise, the bye will count as a tie. 14 weeks in the regular season means one team will get two byes but what can you do? This is the first year we've done 13, arrived at it accidentally when one long-time member bowed out and two previous members wanted back in.

This is the dummy team. Open to comedy options re: the roster, I mostly just picked randos

Najee was great after he got the lead out. Was RB5 the second half of the season in hppr once everyone had stopped watching.

don't like the bit where one team gets two byes (it's just asking for potential drama if that ends up mattering). I'd adjust your regular season duration, maybe have that week be an extended playoff wildcard round. otherwise fun!

Really trying to avoid having playoff games during weeks in which the NFL is having byes (week 14). I don't think there's a clean, perfect solution, and it's probably only for this year anyway

'Cuz it's KILLIN' ME!
Have any of you ever done a league that allows you to trade draft picks? I've got an offer in my 12-team home league that is essentially me giving up my 1st and 4th round picks for an extra pick in the 2nd and 3rd round.

Since I'm drafting 7th, this pretty much means giving up Kelce or Kupp for guaranteed shots at Sun-God and Mandrews?

I don't know how to measure the value here, is the thing.

Picks rapidly depreciate, I guess it depends on what pick you are getting in the second and which players you like at which spots, but it seems like you are not getting enough in return.

I'm a long time member of a super complicated league-of-leagues where draft pick trading is very frequent. That trade offer is terrible. In this example from a calculator we use, I've assumed your counterparty is the 6th pick:



it doesn't look much better assuming your counterparty has any other set of natural picks. I'd only consider it if you are confident you have mocked a very specific draft plan you want to execute.

That seems like a powerful team in a 14 team league, especially if Hyatt can break out down the stretch. I don’t love any Bucs WRs but I bet Godwin will be fine in PPR even with bad QB play.
