Is streaming defenses/kickers not a thing in dynasty leagues?


It can be, and that's what I'm doing with my kicker, but most of the teams are holding 2 DST. I have Cowboys to open the season and the Steelers for 4&5 (home v Cincy and Baltimore)

I don't think it's a dynasty thing, I think it's a having 17 bench slots thing.

So, every player is listed as waivers until tomorrow. Is there a free agency period where I can pick up a player for free on Wednesday? I do not have a kicker.

Yeah, they'll be free agents after waivers clear.

Do we have a rule about playing incomplete rosters?

Like, there's rumors that the SF/TB game will be postponed due to the hurricane, and 5 of my STARTERS are in this game- I would need to drop minimum 3 players for replacement QB, TE, LB and would leave me with no depth. I would rather punt the week in this instance.

Btw, work league roster (9th pick out of 12, full PPR), pls tell me how bad it is

QB: Winston
RBs: Carson, White, Ekeler, L. Murray, Ballage, J. Jackson
WRs: Adams, Juju, Gordon, R. Anderson, Allison
TE: Ertz

It feels so bad, but it's also the highest projected score in the league for week 1 (by like 5 points). Lmao Yahoo projections

True I guess. Would you start Trubs over Rodgers though?

That team btw:

(3rd pick, 10 team, 0.5ppr)

QB: Rodgers, Trubisky
RB: Zeke, Chubb, Gordon (autopick RIP), Royce Freeman, Samuels, Bernard
WR: JuJu, Diggs, Landry, Anderson
TE: Cook, Olsen
K: Fairbairn
D/ST: Jags

I didn't mean to draft either of Gordon or Freeman. Gordon pick I was totally spaced out not realizing it was my turn, Freeman pick I was waffling between a few options and made my decision with about 10 seconds left, but then went to make the pick and realized they weren't available because I'd failed to mark someone off my cheat sheet when they got drafted, and I wasn't able to recognize that and react fast enough to pick someone else.

Felt kinda bitter after. At least Zeke is playing week 1.

I would never start trubisky over Rodgers.

I think the Bears are a better team than the Packers this year, and Trubisky will benefit fantasy-wise

Don't think it means he'll outscore Rodgers tomorrow barring something strange, but I think it'll be close and in general I think you can/should play matchups with that duo instead of always starting Rodgers

Kelce owner in mine dropped Hockenson for... Jason Witten (And I only have #3 waiver priority argh)

This guy is supposedly pretty knowledgeable about football, too!

This is why you need to use a FAAB system

Which reminds me: @Suprak_the_Stud why did we not have a vote on moving to a FAAB waiver system?

Trying to get a relatively casual work league to move to something like FAAB would be nearly impossible, dude.

(Seriously, somebody not me floated the idea last year, I said I'd be fine with it, but nobody else was interested because the waiver priority system is simpler)

So the CMC/Mixon owner in my full PPR work league league has expressed the sentiment to me that he feels comfortable at RB (CMC/Mixon/Tarik Cohen) but would like an upgrade at WR (Woods/Lockett/Watkins + theoretically Antonio Brown, but he has no confidence Brown will play a single down this season beyond this Sunday)

Would I be ripping either of us off by offering something like a Josh Gordon or a Tyrell Williams + James White for his Mixon? Looking up trade values makes that trade look pretty fair with either WR, and I have the bench depth to hold on to an injured Mixon for a while. Would like some input if anybody here is willing to give it.

Someone in my 16 man league dropped Mike Evans. I mean ok you can lose faith in him but in a 16 man league? Jeeze. Also worth pointing out we don't have a TE spot either it's WR/TE so WRs are at a premium since you play 3 or 4 most weeks

I quickly grabbed him on waivers and was surprised I didn't get beaten out. Played him in the WR/TE spot for last nights game
