The answer to my original question to me is:

We are old. We don't change. We will not look at options for improvement and I will throw a fit and cancel or tell you to get out for not being happy. MOTL problems even fall into the fantasy league ffs.

All that said. I signed up, I will have fun, I never voted to cancel the league. Jesus.

Come on is right.

Amen.

Make me an offer if interested.....As far as Bernek, he'd be yelling at Coaster for picking 3 RB's with his first 3 picks. He accused me of "hoarding" RB's a couple years back, wherever he is I'm sure he's complaining about something.

You do realize this is a PPR league, right?

Doesn't really matter. Once you get out of, say, the top 15 RBs, the drop-off in production is pretty steep, and given that you'll typically be running 3xRB each week, there won't be enough good ones to go around. WRs are quite a bit deeper (no pun intended); there are decent ones to be had up and down the list.

---

I'd start a WR in the flex all season last year, and was cruising all the way to the final week.

If WR is so much deeper than RB, teams are likely to put a WR at the flex because they're more likely to have a more productive player than that of their 3rd RB. As vengie mentioned, we are in PPR, so you essentially get 10 rushing yards every time the WR makes a catch, plus his yards. I traded up for Forte because he had like a million catches to go with his elite rushing yardage.

I see the lack of running backs for sure, but by no means should everybody be autopicking RBs for the first 3 rounds because of that scarcity.

This.

Some of these qb's already taken makes me scratch my head. Then again, some of these picks makes me scratch my head wondering...

I actually think the RB position is more deeper than is previously has been. That doesn't mean they will pan out. Or become PPR monsters or anything.

i could offer you mine and swap picks or something but I pick right afterwards. So I don't know if that'll help.

Thats kind of a terrible trade. Taken to the the extreme moving down the same number of spaces in a later round only to move up that same amount of spaces in an earlier round is always worse. IE. You move up 3 spaces in the first round say from Pick number 4 to pick number 1 and in trade you move down 3 spaces in the last round from 169 to 172.

I know its an exaggeration but just curious how anyone would think this is fair.
Usually I am all about individual responsibility, but during the season we would have the ability to vote. Just curious if others think this one doesn't seem to be fair to poor Rabid Wolf.

If he wants to screw himself, have at it.
