My first keeper league

[HaroldSeattle]

You get to keep up to two players at different positions in the round they were drafted the previous year. Free agents can be kept in the 6th round, traded players are kept in whatever round they were originally drafted by the other team. Keepers can only be keep for one season. Looking at my choices they appeared to be :

Mixon round one
Kupp round four
Fournette round five
Mitchell round 6

I went Kupp and Fournette.

12 team league








Think my starters are fine, but my bench is risky with just Cousins, Hopkins and a bunch of rookies. Figure I got time to see if any rookies shine and can hit the waiver wire before byes happen. So what you think? Did I do OK? Did I keep the right keepers?

Definitely the right keepers.
Probably like to see better than Tolbert and Pierce, but you never know like you said. Just easier to part with when waivers shines a light.

Pierce sticks out but meh , who knows. Im fine with your bench. They’re all upside guys. Your not expecting to hit them all, just a dart or two would be nice. Plus your’re a guy who works the waiver wire anyways. Most of those guys your’re gonna drop. So toss the darts at those guys imo. I actually really like what you did the more I think about it.

I forgot to mention that I drafted from the 9th spot, Mixon just missed making it to me, but Diggs gives me a one two punch at WR, could of taken Kamara. Also no TE spot, but took Andrews round 3. Look at who was left at WR and none them scored as high as Andrews at that point.

Solid squad. A lot of rookies on the bench, you should catch one for possibly a late keeper next season..who knows

Without a doubt, Kupp is a steal. You chose right

 

[Bandit]

You didn't make any pick that I thought was crazy. It certainly helps when you get to start with Kupp and Fournette in the 4th and 5th so essentially you get 2 1st rounders (Kupp and Diggs) and 2 2nd rounders (Fournette and Chubb). You definitely had the 2 best keepers of anybody and it wasn't even close. Sometimes that is what makes all the difference.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

Don't like chubb as much in half ppr as standard but this team is looking nice with those keepers!

I like the strategy of taking shots with your bench, cycle the misses through waivers, have great value if you hit for next year's keeper

Good work

 

[femurov]

Late to the party, but I agree with the majority. You kept the right guys and have a solid team.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Was just looking at the score board box scores and saw one team had Stafford, Robinson and Akers in his starting lineup. Total points from them 11.5, that's brutal, heck my kicker put up 8 points. Even worse is the outlook going forward, money league.....

I'll just say that I hope (haven't looked ahead on the schedule yet) but week 7 looks like the one I'd prefer to play you - - Kupp/Diggs bye. ....
I'm selfish.

Yeah week 7 is the week to go against my team, I got to hope Hopkins can step in and play well and one rookie WR steps it up.
