Not a serious bid you say and I bet Wil and Tlance didn't put in a serious bid either. If @All-Star Benchwarmer hadn't of rolled the dice we might of been surprised at the $ amount being much lower then expected to nab Barkley.


Would not have been much lower

Once again, it sounds like youre all arguing over your demise this week.

I'm ok with that. :pop2:

I suspect a lot of teams didn't bother bidding on Barkley because they figured a high roller would take him ( and one did). I wonder if the other high FAAB teams either didn't bid on him or just put in a token bid. Just in case I made my best effort on Barkley because you never know.
I always bid on the elite players, just in case. I didn't expect to land Barkley, but I had hopes for Mixon.

Joe I was surprise to see you haven't picked up a WR seeing how Hill is on a bye and your only bench WR (Adams) is out I think. Instead you once again picked up another TE (this after all that disparaging talk about TE's being worth less then WR 3 or 4). :rolleyes:

Geno is playing Thursday against the 49ers. Knowing how you hate having players play Thursday, maybe you should swap in Taysom at QB. :D

Crap.
I hadnt noticed.
Trades? Anyone? Buehler?

And to the post by @wilwhite i did put in a bid for Barkley. Obviously it wasnt enough.

honestly, that is the weird thing about this league... if you are going to go down, you are going to have a bad week... which means one player is not going to hurt you... especially your last starting player... so you might as well forget about that spot until you need to fill it in.... of course the exception is if you pay for a player with expectations not to be your worst player....

I'm playing him at TE in the Suicide league over LaPorta (if he's active). Clever pick-up.

I did.

Not going to say the exact amount I bid.

But I put in a strong bid knowing that it probably wouldn’t work given the last few.

But it wasn’t a small number.

Suicide and this are really the only formats that it makes sense to take a risk with him.

Sometimes I don’t get your logic.

TE has been a wasteland all season.

I think Taysom Hill is playable in just about any format or league size.

He could get a very low number. But what TE hasn’t at this point?

His TD upside is worth it even in small PPR leagues.

Me too- Not a small bid but not what it cost to get him.

True the wasteland allows you to play him over many TEs.

And my bad. I meant as a flex.
