Random FF Thoughts

I've only ever had one league on Sleeper, 6-7 years ago. At that time, I was not impressed in the least.
Fantrax has its issues, as do all from my experience, but they're still tops in my book

You might appreciate this: Lets say a player is dropped mid-week and you have wait the 24-hours (or 48-hours) for him to clear waivers? You can click to see exactly what minute he will clear waivers - if you want to preserve your waiver priority and watch the clock...

Like i mentioned, felt clunky at first. But once you navigate thru, its a slick site imo.

That is a nice feature to have.

And yeah that clunky-ness was definitely the turn off in the one experience I had

Fantrax does this as well. Click on the “more” drop down on player page.

But it looks like Fantrax rounds up to their default waiver time of 2am.
In Sleeper, it is a literal 24 (or 48 hour) clock. So if a player is dropped at 5:32pm, he will be available at 5:33.

Sneaky flex play this weekend for someone who's been hit hard with injuries/byes and is desperate

Dontrell Hilliard... provided Tannehill plays

They've given KingH a monster workload recently and I expect Titans will need to spread it out and throw vs KC

Titans secondary is beat up and they're missing their best slot CB, expecting a nice game from juju too in that one, but if anything I think Reid takes advantage and Hilliard will see more snaps and touches after showing well in the 2nd half last game

Just a hunch, and I'll re-emphasize this is a desperation play, don't go dropping CMC for Hilliard or anything

Yeah, you’re right. I just remembered seeing the time (10pm for me) when I waited to grab Golladay (D1) a couple weeks ago. But two players dropped on Thursday 14 hours apart are both off waivers at the same time tonight.

Someone dropped the Saints 19 hours ago. I did a claim just to show when Sleeper will process it:



So if I want the Saint and dont want to burn my priority, I can claim them waiver-free at 8:53 tonight.

Well, for somebody that doesn't use my phone to do any fantasy football related stuff and only use my laptop and desktop, Sleeper is awful to navigate compared to all of the other ones. I've heard it's great for mobile users though, but I don't really care about that aspect.

Do they still make computers? That sounds so old. lol

Why in the hell would I look at a screen that is 6" instead of 27" if I have the choice?

I picture @TREFF crouched in the corner of an attic pulling wires with one hand and making trades on his phone with the other.

Umm...it wasnt an attic, I refrain from all distractions when I'm in those to get in and out as quickly as possible. However.... virtually every other setting you could imagine an electrician being in..garage, crawlspace, welding shop, office tennant finish, walkin cooler/freezer, oil field, yes, I've absolutely made trade offers, responded to trades, waiver pickups, you name it, with one hand on work, one on the phone...and probably always will

My wife has dictated that DirectTV was no longer worthy of our $$, thus no more Sunday Ticket, we only get whatever game is on. So not being able to flip game to game all day long, now I just fire up whatever game is on locally on an IPAD or laptop, fire up the Xbox with Madden or final fantasy or minecraft if I wanna truly zone out, on the big screen, that's my Sunday nowadays.

Which really blows the philosophy of my eye test and finding those hidden gems in that fashion, all to hell. But, just gotta work harder is all

And what it all comes down to, my friends, is that everything’s done by the trade deadline.
Cause you’ve got one hand on a circuit, and the other one’s hailing a running back.
