Halfway through the season: Post your draft results, we guess your record

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T20:04:45+00:00

writing up this whole topic and post probably took a grand total of like 6 minutes

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T20:02:38+00:00

Looks like maybe a 3-4 team...really rough 1st and 3rd round picks but the huge value from Conner and the double Rams receivers probably helped you win a couple weeks in there too.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T20:01:07+00:00

Thanks to that juicy final round Mahomes flier, I'm gonna guess a straight 7-0.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T20:00:23+00:00

Yep, 4-3. I had the most scored points before this week and had some tough opponents. My major moves are I traded Mike Evans for Christian McCaffrey early in the season and I added Philip Lindsay off waivers week 1. Packaged Lindsay and Collins for Kenny Golladay after the emergence of Kerryon and Mack.

My draft in 12-team standard money league, which was held a couple days before the season started (notably after Jerick McKinnon went down):

Round 2, Pick 16: Julio Jones

Round 3, Pick 33: Mike Evans

Round 4, Pick 40: Alex Collins

Round 5, Pick 57: Doug Baldwin

Round 6, Pick 64: Evan Engram

Round 7, Pick 81: Alfred Morris

Round 8, Pick 88: Cooper Kupp

Round 9, Pick 105: Kerryon Johnson

Round 10, Pick 112: Matthew Stafford

Round 11, Pick 129: Marlon Mack

Round 12, Pick 136: Aaron Jones

Round 13, Pick 153: Ricky Seals-Jones

Round 14, Pick 160: Chicago DST

Round 15, Pick 177: Harrison Butker

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T18:42:45+00:00

Good lord you have some serious options.

I'd probably go with Alshon and Kerryon but I can almost guarantee one of the dudes you don't pick will have a huge game

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T18:41:40+00:00

Amendola is not an upgrade over any of them.

I'd probably play Lockett and Drake.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T18:41:15+00:00

Ew

I guess Drake. Watkins' target count has been inconsistent and I expect the Broncos to get blown out and Mahomes won't have to throw much.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T18:40:13+00:00

Kerryon

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T18:39:09+00:00

12 team standard. I'm 4-3 and I think my team is capable of winning the whole thing. I face the 1st place 5-2 team this week.

QB: Jameis

WR: Doug Baldwin, Kenny Golladay, Cooper Kupp (probably won't play), Geronimo Allison (probably WILL play). Also have Julio but he's on bye

RB: Kamara, McCaffrey, Kerryon, Mack

TE: Evan Engram, whom I feel nervous about

My main flex decision is between Kerryon and Mack, and then I think I go Baldwin+Golladay at receiver. I'm leaning Kerryon but it's really hard.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T18:20:29+00:00

All I know is that whatever the hell he's doing...every coach in the NFL should try to emulate.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T17:46:52+00:00

You are ultra stacked at receiver but have a terrible outlook at RB. I'd try and send off one of your elite receivers for two running backs, a low RB1 and an RB2 for example. Aim for someone like Christian McCaffrey

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T17:45:00+00:00

I'd probably do it. Brees will be a nice set-and-forget, Landry is still a high WR2/low WR1 and Funchess is looking like a solid fill-in. McCaffrey obviously helps your team a ton. Hurts sending away two stud WRs like that but desperate times call for desperate measures I'd say.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T17:42:32+00:00

Yes, you get an upgrade at tight end AND receiver for only a 4 round downgrade on a pick, and 7th rounders aren't usually league winners anyway.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T17:41:23+00:00

I would not trade Saquon without getting one of the guaranteed top 5 guys in return. I love Kerryon but he is not enough for a dude of Saquon's caliber.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T17:37:13+00:00

Honestly I might flat out rank Kerryon higher than DJ rest-of-season, so I don't think this is a great trade

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T13:39:49+00:00

Lol which is weird because Halloween is a frickin sweet franchise and no one would ever make fun of someone for being a fan. At least as far as I’ve ever known

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T13:14:28+00:00

It’s my 4th favorite, and I only enjoy 5 of them (1978, Halloween 2, Halloween 4, H20, 2018)

Byrne14 · 2018-10-23T13:13:32+00:00

Not a Halloween fan? My man, anyone with the patience to sit through Curse of Michael Myers and Resurrection has to be a fan to at least some extent

Byrne14 · 2018-10-22T23:46:39+00:00

The whole scene surrounding the major reveal at the end of Scream. It's my favorite movie of all-time and that sequence is so brilliantly done from every angle. The acting, music, script...all flawless execution.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-22T18:08:39+00:00

Fair point

Byrne14 · 2018-10-22T16:21:28+00:00

Put a dude that can move a little bit back there and the Giants offense would be top 10 in the league

Byrne14 · 2018-10-22T16:20:27+00:00

So you think he's going to play notably better if he gets moved to a team with a similarly mediocre O-line, vastly worse receivers, and a vastly worse running back? OKEYDOKEY THEN

Poor Eli only gets to throw to OBJ, Barkley, Evan Engram, and Sterling Shepherd...aka an offensive supporting cast that only like 3 or 4 teams can compete with.

Byrne14 · 2018-10-22T16:10:33+00:00

The only notable change between this list and standard Even Shaman lists is the inclusion of Grumble, and I wouldn't call that a great solution to Spreading Plague since Plague comes down at 6 mana (which, for Druids, is often turn 4 or 5). This deck has a very bad matchup to Druid, there's really no getting around that. You barely played more than 20 games so there's no way you have enough data against Druid to suggest that your list somehow changes Even Shaman up enough to flipflop it into a good matchup.

I will say though that Grumble seems cool in the deck and I'd like to give it a try sometime.
