If Ryan O'Reilly makes it to free agency, this board will explode when the Sabres sign him as a UFA.

.

Who are u thinking at 2? Im thinking I’ll have a shot at #2 for Lamar and Andrews, but you got to take Andrews in round 2. If Josh Allen is there in the 2nd round I’m taking him. He’s always there for me in mock drafts, but doubt he’ll be there in this draft. I like how my team turns out doing mocks taking either Andrews or Allen in rd2. I don’t love the wr’s or rb’s available there in rd 2.

if taylor goes 1 I am torn between henry and ekeler as I do not want to get on the mccaffrey train again, although it paid off huge for me before he was hurt

if andrews is there at 23 I will probably go andrews and lamar in the 4th if he is there

I think I will go allen at 23 otherwise if I can and grab davis and knox in the 4th and 6th round

I really hate the rb's left at 23 assuming kamara is gone and i do not see much difference between evans, or allen or pittman in that 23 or 26 spot vs picking the right guy later d. johnson, dk, sutton or cooks

I learned from experience rb and wr from same team is bad and you have two pairs of them.
- Hatboro_Swords

yup

I like his players, not the team composition



dalvin and ekeler probably being the exceptions to pairing up with wrs

In my dynasty league I traded Henry away for various reasons. Huge age and offensive line sucks.

Dynasty though. Is different than normal fantasy football

In normal fantasy. I agree with the move.

- Sabretooth9

dynasties are tricky, sell high on rb's after they have been in the league for 5 years

side note I really like pierce, rising up the charts though, herbert and allgeier for later rbs and rondale moore, nico collins and kj osborn for late wr's

Yeah, I am in a dynasty salary cap league. This is year 2 … I dumped Henry and Mahomes due to cap reasons. (Obviously got players in return)

And I have rondale moore and think the same thing.

My only issue with KJ Osborn is that the Viking trades for Jason reagor.

If Cozens keeps developing I think there won't be a need for ROR. Think we would have a bigger, faster, grittier version already.

Wow..... first they give up a TON for a guy on the wrong side of 30 and now this? Then again, we wandered the desert for 20 years looking for a qb - I may have done the same in their situation.

I think he is used to it given the last 5 years of playing behind a bad line

Oh absolutely correct. I created cap space, made trades, dumped players, released players. It’s insanely fun.


It’s a lot of work though and time consuming lol. The only negative.

But once your team is set up rookie draft and free agency wise. You are all set.

I love Wilson He’s been my fantasy guy for 3 years.

It’s just insane how much money QBs are getting.

I can remember when I complained about Ryan Fitzpatrick getting 9 mill a year from the bills 😂😂

We do mine through Sleeper.

Me and the other co-commish use a google doc to track salaries. all other trading and such is done through the app.

Its a lot of work for the commissioners.

We started on MFL, but that platform was awful and it cost money to use the site so we switched.

this is a full time gig.



I acquired Diggs and McCaffery this year during the offseason and subsequently traded them away a few weeks later.
