No judgement here. I have to do some mental gymnastics to talk myself out of filling my team with Steelers players in every draft, at every pick lol. Happens enough to make me feel that wayAs much as I want the Lions players to be big in fantasy, I think they have another year of building the D before they start upgrading the offense. So in my mind a bit of a homer pick.
Why do you think I took Chubb at that spot? lol Although I do like him in non-PPR more. I get why he was ranked lower but had to pull the trigger. Couldn't control my desire.No judgement here.

Preachin to the choir... NAJEEE SZN!!!!Why do you think I took Chubb at that spot? lol Although I do like him in non-PPR. I get why he was ranking lower but had to pull the trigger. Couldn't control my desire.
Yeah but yours was really the perfect spot. He is getting a huge workload, I don't care what the reports say lol. Always a risk with Chubb bc of how they have used him in the past and Kareem Hunt. I was always frustrated I would see entire drives without Chubb and also taking him out at GL even in running situations.Preachin to the choir... NAJEEE SZN!!!!
But I'm sure getting snaked out of Chubb last year was subconsciously playing a part for you.
The age-old volume vs upside debate. Chubb certainly has the upside, but the system he's in doesn't necessarily favor his upside. Though the inner fanspeak we do to ourselves talks up the slight chance the system changes lol. Those "what ifs" control us in the offseason!Yeah but yours was really the perfect spot.

do we even know what system yet? he needs watson so teams cant just stuff the run As a pats fan i feel your pain taking homer picks but at least chubb is talentedThe age-old volume vs upside debate.

Add another 10 years onto that. Oops.from about 5 years ago.
I try to set my limit at 1-2 on homer picks. But during the season that usually grows to 3 after waivers. I try to resist, but sometimes it just happens lol@FaCe-LeE-uS @Shanemansj13
Your comments reminded me of a draft story from about 5 years ago.
In one redraft league with friends, one guy was drafting all Bears players. Keep in mind, they were halfway decent at the time. Think he had Matt Forte, Jonny Knox, Bears DST, Robbie Gould...
Surprisingly, his team was actually above .500 after about 7 games (so halfway thru the fantasy season. The bottom eventually fell out tho.
@MilkSpiller22 sssssssssnaked me with Gabriel Davis.
Had to regroup on that one.
@SteelersPride is OTC
Maybe but it's bc he had one of those great seasons in '20 but backed it up being top 7 again.We will see if Kupp does the same this year.am i the only one kind of down on Diggs??
Which guy did i snipe?
