So umm, I did the schedule last night and I went with the 6 go to the playoffs wich means each team plays each division opponent twice and non-division once. Not that I'm going to change anyting but I just wanted to ask, in a 10 player league that does 4 in the playoffs that means each team plays each division opponent twice and non-division once and then an extra game against one random team. Do you guys feel like one is more fair than the other or are they just about the same?

The 6 is more fair if you use divisions.

4 is better if you don't use divisions since there often isn't really a set group of who plays who twice when divisions are not used

don't need a wr and someone might need a qb for an rb

I threw te up there in case someone wanted both for some reason

Honestly a good TE can be pretty scarce and there are a lot of awful QBs that could use some replacing around the league

yeah, I should prob replace Watson. I don't feel like you are
THAT
bad off. CMC is only out for like a month and a half, right? And Bell gets back week 5 And Robinson/Swift is prob not the worst fill in. You are also #4 in waivers so I think that is going to guarantee you are going to get one of the top RB wire pick ups.

If someone was absolutly loaded @ RB and needed a QB and/oror a TE then I think a trade would make sense but Poker shouldn't be expecting like a stud RB or anything.

Yes i was not expecting a stud. Wavier position should get me a decent fill in until at least one of bell and cmc is healthy again but if not i am willing to listen to offers. Not gonna accept or decline until after waivers go through

500 dollars says there's at least 1 te in your waiver pool that scored over 10 pts week 2 AND at least 1 qb in your waiver pool that scored 20 pts week 2.

There's *probably* more than 1 player that meet those requirements. Tyler Eifert basically scored 10, but we don't need to count him.

There's a *chance* only 1 rb scored over 10 in your waiver pool, probably not more than 2.

Idk know how to check it, but I'm also relatively certain that week 1 had a similar story, maybe not as many te over 10 but a handful of good options at just a shade under 10 with a couple guys over 10. But QBs were definitely available. And guess what? Week 3 will be a similar story. It's why good players stream those positions. And it's also why even considering trading an rb or a wr is sabotaging your league. In league 1(even if you ignore cam) "QB streamer" is the 6th best option at QB. TE streamer is 2nd.

So free QBs are being outperformed by russ by about 15 pts(if you ignore cam being on waivers). Unless you predicted the Nyheim Hines situation, you're not even close to that w/ RB. And if you did predict that Hines would score 20 pts week 1, then like...you probably won a milly maker and don't give a shit about this league.

Tl;dr, the literal free options are probably better than what you want someone to give you something for and if unless you are trading Allen, Murray, Wilson (or the two guys under the threshold that matter) the conversation isn't worth having. And the most that's even really reasonable to offer for those guys, is like...DeAndre swift.

FTR, Poker is basically offering Goff and/or Fant since he prob wants to keep Ertz for the name recognition. Someone like Joe could certainly use an upgrade @ QB but I doubt he'd trade Akers or Gordan. Fish could certainly use a TE but I doubt he'd want to part with Mixon in case he starts doing better. Kittle isn't doing really well but Bone has RB woes of his own. Andrews didn't do great this week but I don't think he'd want to buy a new TE.

Like I said, Robinson/Swift/waiver wire pick up and you'll be fine.

Yeah, I'm just operating assuming Andrews and Higbee had a Freaky Friday body swap for a day and chugging along without changing anything. :V

Probably should have said a notable consistent te and the awful qbs around the league was refering to the nfl in general not our league in general

But nero is probably right, i am overthinking this

Another week another blowout loss for Mr. Toad's Wild ride as he was defeated by Always Thuney 130 to 102.48 to inch his way into the top spot in the MS South division.

Toad lost Barkley for the year but should be ok as he has a bevy of backs including Gurly, Fournette, Hunt, and Freeman. Next up Toad faces the 5th ranked Get Reckt and Thuney faces the 6th ranked Pabs Blue Ribbon. Both teams (Get Reckt and Pabs) are coming off of their first victory. Get Reckt defeating Joe's (not so) Marvelous team and Pabs pulling out a close one against the Tatum Bellhops.

In a battle of winless teams, Joe will face off against the Magic Bears and the bellhops face the 3rd ranked fishes. The Fishes defeated the aptly named Bone's Broken Boner as he limps into week 3 with a broken roster. He lost Sutton to an ACL, Mostert to an MCL. It's a bummer that he couldn't pull a hat trick and have someone pull their PCL. Kittle was already dealing with an MCL and Brown also has a broken finger but both are supposed to play this weak. He still has no defense.

In week 3 Bones faces the topped ranked Poker's Aces who are dealing with injury woes of their own. Bell was previously on IR and he lost CMC for a little over a month.

I fully believe Mixon to up his game. (I think)

Also Engram is still IMO a TE1 for now.

All the 2-0 teams have had the least ammount of points scored against them but they also have some of the better point totals.
