Fantasy Football

Will Hurts/Brown bounce back after underwhelming week 1 performances? Do we get another season of week 2 prime time Kirk vs the Eagles, will JJ be held in check vs Slay again? Which Eagles running back emerges with Gainwell out.

Tune in on twitch.tv or on the Amazon Prime app to watch tonight’s game and leave your comments below

For those of you who used to follow these rankings on Reddit, you can get them straight from his website.

Unfortunately he only gives the top 8, and no kicker rankings without a subscription but it’s pretty cheap. I think $30.

For anyone else who used to rely on /u/peakedinhighskool and his fabulous charts, YSK they're all available on his website with no Reddit required.

Also, week 2 chart just went up! Enjoy.

In this thread…

Name your top player you are claiming on the waiver wire (along with FAAB percentage if you play FAAB)

Name one player to stash after waivers clear

And name one player to cut (No kickers or defense please) to make room on the roster for them.

I had dobbins whose out for the year and only have Ackers for second RB. .5PPR keeper league

Give: Romeo Doubs Get: Dalvin Cook

Doubs had a great first game with Love but not sure how sustainable he will be

How did your week go? Are you hoping for a Monday night miracle? Did you wrap up your week? Want to get ahead of the waiver wire. Post those comments and more as we watch Josh Allen battle Aaron Rodgers in his New York debut

Cowboys and Giants in the Sunday night game. Jets and Bills Monday night. Andrews is officially OUT. Ertz and Hollywood IN.

Post any comments about todays games here!

Do we want / are there plans to do WDIS threads? I know there's not a lot of traffic here but we could put one up if there was any interest in it. Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are.

The season kicks off tonight! Make sure you take your chiefs and lions out of your flex and put them at WR/RB/TE slots.

Kelce remains a game time decision

Thank you to everyone who showed up for the draft! We have 7 teams in the league and one team that auto drafted and is still available. Message me if you want to claim it. In the mean time I will manage it by setting the highest projected lineup and only making waiver claims if I can’t fill the starting lineup due to injury or bye weeks. Season starts tomorrow! Good luck everyone!

That team’s roster is as follows-

J Herbert

T Etienne

D Pierce

J Jefferson

C Kupp (auto draft didn’t get the memo I guess)

K Pitts

G Wilson

49er D

G Gano

De Hopkins

DJ Moore

D Watson

T Lawerence

K Herbert

A Gibson

Q Johnston

Just a little preseason bleach appetizers for you Kelce owners. Hopefully it's nothing serious, but I'd be scanning the waiver wire for a backup just in case.

Hey guys. Just updating everyone that I have the draft scheduled for Sunday at 7pm. We have 4 people signed up but it was as high as 6 at one point before we had a couple people drop out. If we can get it back up to 6, I can have my brother and a friend who are not on Lemmy manage a couple teams on a temporary basis or we can just disband the league and wait to see if we have more interest next season.

Let me know how you feel in the comments.

Thanks to @TheDaveAbides @TheGreyt and @MooDib for signing up so far

I'm drafting second in my 3 player keeper league. Everything I've been seeing is saying draft Mahomes. Should I really go for a qb over say Ja'marr or Bijan. Assuming JJ goes first.

We're less than a week away from the start of the season, so let's share our hot takes so we can ~~delete our comments when we're wrong~~ show off how we're smarter than the experts. I'll post mine in the comments.

I've always loved these projections. Has anyone paid the $30/yr for the long range projections? I thought this was accessible for free in the past, but I'm not sure.

Any other defense streaming sources you've had success with?

I'd love a CMC, Burrow, and best available WR combo.

So many ways to map out this first round though -- it's concensus feels way lower than normal this year.

Hey everyone. Just a reminder that we need 5 more people to sign up for the fantasy league. The draft has been scheduled for tonight at 7 Eastern. If you miss the draft you can still sign up and nab one of the auto drafted teams.

Here is the invite link.

This weekend and next are the two biggest for fantasy football drafts. Post your draft results here for feedback.

Be sure to include scoring format and number of teams in your league.

Big yikes for Jeudy and Denver. Who's gonna catch the ball in Denver? Sutton SZN? Any love for Lil'Jordan?
