That’s a shame. I think if that hadn’t happened then you likely could have solved the issue of violence in America. Tough break for society.

I am very close to solving it.

Thanks for the confidence, appreciate it.

Drafted 4th. Half point PPR 12 teams.
1. Cee Dee Lamb
2. Nico Collins
3. Josh Allen
4. Jaylen Waddle
5. James Connor
6. Dalton Kincaide
7. Rashee Rice
8. Jaylen Warren
9. Zack Moss
10. Keon Coleman
11. Jake Elliott
12. Ezekiel Elliott
13. J.K. Dobbins
14. Ja’Lynn Polk
15. Cincinnati defense

First time drafting in this league and I didn’t know they would over value RBs the way they did. I reached for Connor at 5th round because guys were dropping like flies. I kept getting sniped for backs. At the same time, my strategy was to go Breece Hall but Cee Dee was my number 1 WR on the board and he dropped to me.

Here's my last one, drafted 6th, PPR, 10 teams, QB/RBx2/WRx2/FLEXx2/TE/K/D-ST
1. Breece Hall
2. AJ Brown
3. Marvin Harrison Jr
4. Cooper Kupp
5. Patrick Mahomes
6. Rashee Rice
7. Tee Higgins
8. David Njoku
9. Brian Robinson
10. David Montgomery
11. Brian Thomas Jr
12. Jonathan Brooks
13. Trevor Lawrence
14. Jerome Ford
15. Josh Palmer
16. Dontayvion Wicks
17. Bengals D/ST
18. Jake Bates

My draft went unusually heavy on RBs early, 8 off the board by my 2nd pick, got into that dead zone for RBs really quickly. They were a bit aggressive on TEs too. So I just kept taking the WR value that was being left behind and took the gift of Mahomes at 5.6.. Bills went too early as usual (homers lol) including Josh in the first (yikes) to a replacement owner new this year.

Surprised that Lamb fell to you, might be that false "OUT" designation that the sites have listed for him. He might be a bit rusty the first week or two but is too good to pass up. Glad that he didn't fall to me, as I wanted Breece or Bijan at 1.6.

Holy shit. Domestic abuse isn't a big enough term for burning someone alive.

I like your team a lot. Great draft

Waddle or Rashee Rice?

Who do you start this week? My instincts say to stay away from the Ravens secondary.

I agree with you I like Waddle, plus the Chiefs are going to be working Worthy into things too so need to see how that shakes out. Unless I have a primo option I seem to do better by not playing guys on Thursday, but this game isn’t crap like a lot of them. I think tonight is a Jackson, Mahomes, Kelce, Andrews, Pacheco and Henry game.

Ravens not Bills

@bksballer89 posting my lock of the week now. Wash St is only a 1.5 pt favorite at home over Texas Tech. Feels like a big trap but I’m betting it before it changes.
