I'm only playing you in the baseball playoffs which I think you won unless JD or Altuve hit a late HR

Oh boy...

What happened to Henry today?

What happened to Henry today?

My endorsement.

Hey @Bandit , you still have a chance with Cobb pulling that one outta his ass.

Hey @Bandit , you still have a chance with Cobb pulling that one outta his ass.

No I don't unless the Rams team bus crashes, congratulations on your win. If I could only transfer some of the 155 points I scored in D1 to this league I'd be set.

Yeah. no offense, but your Henry pick was perhaps the biggest non-Foot headscratcher I have seen in MBBRL drafts. Still could work, but I also didn't see Henry go before pick 36 in any of my other drafts.

I needed that IRL lol

Guts are louder than brains. He wasn't getting back to me.

Too bad I don't listen to my gut when I should...Fitzcrapstick.

Course not...

(Ryan Fitzpatrick could be top ten out of the gates for the first three weeks.)

Yep, it's unfortunate for you that D1 has absolutely nothing to do with this.

Huge comeback for @MilkSpiller22 last night. He was sitting at 88 when Rodgers went down to injury in the 1st half of last night's game. Then low & behold Rodgers returns to give me an epic beatdown.

1.5 pt difference with Prater vs. Golladay to go! Going to be an interesting finish!

Maybe not.

But, Henry's ceiling is severely limited by Dion Lewis. The most optimistic predictions do make Henry worthy of a top 15 pick, but his floor is scary low. He will probably have at least a couple more weeks like this one. Especially if Mariota is hurt and/or struggling.

I know you were super high on Henry, just like I am on CMac for PPR. But, the problem with reaching for him where you did is that even if you are right, you don't gain anything. Because if you are correct, he produces on the level of expectation for the 13th overall pick.

That is why I took Melvin Gordon ahead of CMac picking 9 in my PPR league. I still think CMAC will have the better year, but there was a decent chance I could get both if I took Gordon first. It didn't work, so I had to "settle" for Julio Jones. Oh well.

Point is, reaching in rounds 1 and 2 is a lot different than reaching in the mid rounds. The cost of a mistake could be team killing.

I will say this about Fitzcrapstick,

This is highly unlikely, but if the Bucs are 3-0 or 2-1 with the brutal early schedule and Fitz playing lights out, it is possible he keeps the job, at least temporarily. TB may be looking for an excuse to move on from Jameis.

Oh, I'm aware of my short comings, but....

He's a QB1 killer. Everywhere he goes.

Question, fellas; can we not have a Barbarians thread to talk smack and other things about the season?

I think there is one from seasons past?
Might need to do a search.
I used the KOTF draft discussion thread.
You can always use the BATG draft thread.

I think it was a year ago or so it was decided that it would be best if KOTF and BATG were both discussed on one thread. This one

Correct because of some confusion in terms of posters not being active

Oops. Sorry @Chef99 and my MBBRL brothers, forgot about that.
Was a rough night for me.

 

[TKOSpikes]

Apparently Henry had a 64 yard TD called back on a Delanie Walker phantom penalty.

Hope lives.

So who would have guessed that after all that pre-season hype Royce Freeman would be the 2nd best running back on his team in week one and the first wasn't even Devontae Booker?
