  2. Like I said before, I'm not used to 2 QB leagues, but based on how they are valued in your league, I think you have to consider keeping three of Brady, Wentz, Smith and Mariota. Also, I know that in keeper leagues that early R1 draft picks aren't as valuable as in standard, but I would at least consider keeping one of Collins and McKinnon and tossing back Zeke, unless you think he's a top 2 RB, which I don't. If it were me, it would be Thomas, Smith, Wentz, Mariota, Collins. I think Zeke's a top 3 RB. He hasn't really been hurt and has been a top back on a per game basis in his 2 years, especially non PPR. Thomas for 9th is a no-brainer. I'd probably only keep 2 QBs, you can always add a 3rd in the draft. Smith and Wentz would be my choices. Collins > McKinnon in non-PPR and I don't like McKinnon's chances of staying healthy with full RB load. I think OP was on the right track. I mean, if you think Zeke is the third best RB (and that's totally reasonable) and I know that Bell is still out there to be drafted...its pretty thin value to be using your pick number five to get who you think should be going at pick three, when INSTEAD you could be getting a QB in round 13 that would otherwise be going in what, round 6? Depending on how much your league trades, you can always trade him...and once again, you might cause a run on QBs when you already have all of your QB needs met! That pays off up and down the draft board for you. I'll put it another way. If you throw Zeke back, who do you think you have to pick from for pick 5? Is that difference in value between unnamed player and Zeke the same as the difference between Mariota and whatever trash is left in round 13?
  3. Bonderman and Colon for me.
  4. Can someone make a Works Progress Administration-style mural of Bote walking off with Cubs doing Cub things at Wrigley in the background? (This is a Win Probability Added reference)
  5. I don't notice players' shoes often, but why does it appear that Zo is wearing green New Balance running shoes?

  7. Fire them and fire Alex Rodriguez.
  8. That is actually a wrestling tradition. Football lasts through November, losing weight over Thanksgiving is the real wrestling tradition/achievement. ...I thought football was something you just watch on TV? (I did play football in HS one season. I started as a WR, broke my finger and couldn't catch the ball, and by the end of the season I was a 125 pound nose tackle. High school football coaches are insanely stupid.)

  10. Would love to hear that you lost 10-15 lbs in October. If anyone loses weight around Halloween, they deserve a medal. That is actually a wrestling tradition.
  11. I mean, lets be fair. Caratini or just about any catcher in the majors right now would be about the same quality as Contreras since the break. He needs extended rest.
  12. There are other players I would prefer, namely players that don't play 2B (poorly), but you can't argue with the price.
  13. As long as you still have an open RB spot to fill, even WITH Kamara I don't think you need to force yourself away from Bell with the top pick. He's the best value. Take him. Hell, you could trade Bell for a 2nd rounder-type WR and a decent RB. Take Bell and crush everyone with your awesome RB duo. And if you take Bell and guys like Kamara are already off the board, even in a WR zany league, you might cause a run on RBs, and then you could have better than Diggs sitting around in the 2nd, like a Devante Adams or so?
  14. Not at all. I think its a no brainer, myself (against righties)
  15. I know what you are saying, but to make my counter-point clear, I would be a VERY consistent hitter in the major leagues. no, you'd be a very consistent out.
  16. Because I didn't think about it very much. EDIT: Full disclosure: I finished my first draft and realized I didn't have a 2B, so I just threw Zobrist in. so, your first draft didn't include the cubs most consistent hitter? I know what you are saying, but to make my counter-point clear, I would be a VERY consistent hitter in the major leagues.
  17. Must be menstral. Oh, wrong Dangerfield movie fake injury. My bad.
  18. Can somebody recap? I refuse to go to that board. "mortgaging the future for a division that was 80% likely to be theirs anyway" which is swiftly shot down by others since we gave up absolutely nothing.
  19. Russell's glove doesn't slip in the field, only in the bed. [bbvideo=560,315]https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/6df03946-7b23-48ee-ae87-65dafe465ed4[/bbvideo]
  20. If Yu is any kind of guide for that kind of....forget I said anything.
  21. Because of the draft trades your team is obviously awesome, but I'm not used to 2 QB leagues. If those tier of QBs go that early, I would think you'd want to stash a 3rd QB on your roster, right? Or at this point is it just dredges on the waiver wire so it doesn't matter anyhow? I mean, if its a keeper league, there has to be some value to stashing guys like Bridgewater or Jackson or other current backups/rookies that could be feasable fantasy starters if given the chance.
