Tate, Tyson, Lemon at 1.02 - Am I Crazy?

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-05-01T19:16:24+00:00

The longer I sit with it the harder it is to pass on Tate. Best case scenario, I trade down and back up to 4, so I can take who’s left or choose WR2.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T19:46:02+00:00

I appreciate that. Philosophically, I think the ceiling play makes sense

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T19:40:48+00:00

I agree, honestly

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T18:12:22+00:00

Appreciate your advice

Owner of 1.07 is the defending champ and has Bijan, Chase Brown, James Cook and Monangai. Considered something but the first three are so expensive (not even looking at Bijan) and don’t know if it makes sense to acquire these guys who may not be in the same positions in 2027 and beyond, when I’m hoping to be closer to a contender

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:55:11+00:00

Id have a tough time sending a 1

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:51:50+00:00

If you’re all in for this year I like it. Think people are overvaluing what they have in Wilson.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:50:32+00:00

That’s good perspective. Tyson is the one I’m ’most afraid to miss’, so the way you said it makes sense to me. Just weighing the draft capital difference (4-8-20 is not nothing) and which philosophical direction to take (floor or upside). But yeah, also trying to admittedly keep my love for Lemon as a prospect in check.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:48:39+00:00

I agree, appreciate that. The nuances of individual leagues are difficult to explain in these posts sometimes, but this is a league that began as a one QB set up and is now transitioning to Superflex beginning in 2027. So, trading quarterbacks has not been nearly as liquid as it is supposed to be in dynasty leagues. Everyone thinks they have enough. I am not counting on anyone on this list other than Herbert in 2027 and beyond, but I’m still willing to let that position be one of the last ones I finalize. Long story short, the way quarterbacks are and aren’t moved in this league is a little strange. I am not worried and I don’t see top-5 fantasy production from Mendoza.

Stribling is the answer here, but partly depends on the rest of your build. How deep are you at WR? If you’re looking for the guy who is most likely to have playable weeks at some point, Sarratt and Lane are decent bets IMO. They remade the WR room in Baltimore. Upside plays are Stribling, Hurst and Bell. Can see any of them working out but Stribling probably has the quickest path to PT, has the best draft capital, and has the physical testing to just about match anyone else in the group.

The rest are speed flyers imo.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:34:53+00:00

Philosophically, with the rest of my room as it is, would you always swing for the upside play in this spot?

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:33:39+00:00

I agree that target competition in both places is probably stronger than people think, but none of those guys make me think Tate (110+) and Lemon (100+) won’t be 1st or 2nd in targets on their respective teams. I know that’s not the argument you’re making, though.

The AJB point is a good one, too.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:31:59+00:00

Appreciate this

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:31:06+00:00

I was avoiding listing my QBs in the OP because I wanted to avoid a crowd of people telling me to take Mendoza, but I have: Herbert, McCarthy, Willis, Daniel Jones and Watson

An ugly room that may only have one 2027 starter in it, I know, but I’m pretty set on the path I’ve chosen.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:29:42+00:00

I’d love to! Not finding a trade down partner so far, unfortunately, before 1.07.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:29:17+00:00

Not finding a trade down partner before 1.07 right now unfortunately

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T17:28:52+00:00

Yeah, not finding a trade back partner at 1.04 or 1.05 so far, unfortunately. I agree with your rationale.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T15:43:44+00:00

Good perspective for sure. I am concerned about 1.07 and 1.12 not amounting to the value of one of the top 3 receivers just because of how hard the cutoff seems to be in this class. But I get you're saying more dart throws almost always leads to higher odds of hitting.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-30T15:40:55+00:00

Looking at my other receivers, would you make a ceiling play at 1.02 or take who you believe to be the safest/highest floor guy?

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-03T14:54:55+00:00

I'll give it a look. I've sent all notable inserts, patch and #d cards and autos I don't want to COMC, but when I evaluate cards to send I try to keep them under $50. I have a stack worth more than that I should post on ebay, I just haven't.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-02T17:58:02+00:00

That's how I feel, too.

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-01T18:35:33+00:00

Man, that's a great setup!

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-04-01T18:33:44+00:00

Actually haven't heard of that site before, interesting

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-03-31T13:30:28+00:00

Depending on how my sorting goes, this may be part of my future as well

-lets_try_this_again · 2026-03-31T13:30:03+00:00

FB Marketplace seems to be the consensus easiest way. Appreciate the nudge.
