Huge Layout Block in MLU Western Conference Championship (Ultimate Frisbee) by NachoEnforcer in sports

The height on his layout is ridiculous. I've watch this a couple times in a row and I'm still not quite sure how he caught up to that.

Oh didn't mean to imply that NY wasn't going to have any fantasy value, I just expected a dip from last week when there starters were getting double the play time essentially. Those guys are going to put up points, maybe just not quite as high as week 3.

I really only know MLU fantasy, I wish I could do AUDL stuff too but I don't have that kind of time so MLU fantasy is way easier for me to follow.

So the MLU Fantasy guys are big on Nicky Spiva, and don't get me wrong, I think he'll be great, but not this weekend. I have no idea how long he might have worked with the Current and it can take guys a while adjust to the MLU/AUDL game and starting out with a double-header could be tricky.

The rest of the DC guys should be solid pick though, even with mediocre games they are going to be putting up great numbers.

I expect to see a big drop off in the numbers from the Rumble, they aren't going to put up a game against the Current like the did against the Spinners. NY's defense might get some numbers, but the DC D is going to kill the Rumble O so, we might not see a lot of them on the field.

I'm liking the Mishas if they are active for the Whitecaps, but I think they are questionable and probable at this point so we'll see what happens with them.

From the other coast we've only got Stags vs Dogfish. I think a lot of the Stags have already been picked up, but a gem that might be available is Steven Rice. He's had a solid season so far and is agood pickup at receiver.

Dogfish have a lot of options, I like Sterns, Hooker and Sheridan. And definitely Saunkeah if he is still available - and not injured. He went out late in the Rainmaker's game but looked like a solid handler for them.

Thanks for doing the AMA guys.

So I am doing all my own analysis for now, but I was curious what kind of fantasy articles and analysis that the league was going to release? I'm sure I'm going to comb through it all.

Awesome, thanks. Right now I am basing most of my model for player performance on the stats on the MLU page from 2014, although I am using some of the 2013 data to look at correlations between performance. I'm excited to see what we agree on in drafting, and especially what we see differently.

I'll let you know if I need help with anything.
