2021 Complain about your fantasy team that no one cares about here discussion

[UMFan83]

Starting this off again.

 

To win the title last year, I traded my 1st round pick this year for Dalvin Cook. Also because I couldn't keep either of my QBs (Lamar, Murray - not allowed to keep more than 1 consecutive year), I was in a dire position at the draft. Because its a 2 QB start league, QBs fly off the board, I had to use a 2nd round keeper on Dak Prescott, and would not have the chance to draft a non-QB until the end of Q3 (AJ Brown was my other keeper in the 5th round).

 

Anyways, I ended up with a pretty crappy team but with upside IMO. Lost week 1 badly.

 

Here is my team:

 

QB (start 2) - Prescott, Roethisberger, Heinike

RB (start 3) - Gibson, James Robinson, Mike Davis, Javante Williams, Gordon, Eli Mitchell

WR (start 4) - AJ Brown, Allen Robinson, Galloday, Mooney (had Gallup but he's out for 5 weeks)

TE (start 1) - Kittle

streaming K and DEF

 

I have terrible WR depth, but I am not sure if any of my RBs are droppable for a WR (we only have 4 bench spots, 3 are currently used by RBs, and then Heinike because I needed another option for QB2 besides Ben)

 

Very unexciting team and I am really not sure at all how to improve it unless I trade Kittle for WR depth and then maybe consolidate a couple of RBs for a better one. The tough thing is using 1/2 my bench spots on the Broncos backfield - they both took exactly 50% of the snaps in W1 and neither may distinguish themselves). In the short term I might drop Mooney...I like his upside and the 7 targets he got, but I cannot start 2 Bears WRs with Dalton at QB and Nagy at HC.

 

 

Anyways, if anyone has any opinions (other than that my team sucks - i know that already) I'm all ears. If not, at the very least complain about your fantasy team that no one cares about here.

I assume every starting QB + rookies are on rosters?

Yep...actually besides Andy Dalton lol. I took Heinike because Dalton's situation is tenuious. I guess so is Heinike's if WFT brings in a QB, but I think he's the better play as backup QB. But yeah, every other starter and rookie are owned. I waited way too long to take QB2 and got stuck with Ben. Then late in the draft I picked up Taysom and Cam hoping one would pan out as a starter but that didn't work out obviously.

Can't you trade one of those RBs for a WR? And how many teams are there? I'm in a 14 team, and your team would be the stone nuts in it.

12 team league. I'm not sure if stone nuts is good or bad lol. I have several decent players but other than Dak no money players. Hoping Gibson's volume last week translates into more points this year. Last year I had Kyler, Lamar, Davante Adams, AJ Brown, Dalvin, JRob, Zeke. I would go look at the rankings and be disappointed if any of my starters were not top 12 of their position.

 

But to your question, there are trades in our league but usually not this early in the year, and post week 1 their values are a bit depressed (JRob, Mike Davis in particular but also the Broncos RBs because their situation is still unclear)

[UMFan83]

Could use some input here. 0.5 PPR, 12 team league. My team is in shambles and I need to drop a RB for a Kicker. Which of these RBs would you drop?

 

-Eli Mitchell

-James Robinson

-Mike Davis

-Javonte Williams

-Melvin Gordon

-Chuba Hubbard

 

I actually cant drop Hubbard because he played but I'd be interested to see where he would fit into the mix. I'm thinking Mitchell because he's doubtful this week and that backfield is so unpredictable that it seems more likely than not he won't be a startable RB.

 

I'd also love to clear up that Broncos backfield logjam that's taking up half my bench but I can't decide which one is droppable.

I would agree it needs to be Mitchell, although I would wait close enough to game time that he will get pushed into next week's free agents and then you might get another chance at him. If you wanted to really risk it, you could even see if there are any decent Sunday night or Monday night kickers, and then decide if you need to pick up a kicker at all as the Sunday scores kick in. But I don't think Mitchell is valuable enough for all that.

[JudasIscariotTheBird]

I'd consider Gordon or Davis, as well. You have so much depth, that you would want to keep the high upside options. Eli has a chance to lead the 49er backfield in touches, which could be more valuable than any of your other RBs, barring injury.

[WrigleyField 22]

Humble brag, but I'm at 144 points (non PPR) with another 9 projected and am only at 68% odds to win per ESPN.

 

Just gonna be one of those weeks where the number 2 scorer in the league loses.
