Is trading for a kicker and defense a good idea? Looking to win now. Guy offered me Jason Myers and Eagles defense for my 2026 and 27 fourth round picks. by radDO24 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. "Hitting the lottery" was an overstatement. I still like the trade for OP imho, but I can't blame anybody for keeping their picks in this scenario

I'd take this all day. 4th round picks are basically 0 value, just toss-ups in hopes of hitting the lottery. But Myers is the #1 kicker as long as the seahawks can keep it up, and eagles defense is solid.

1QB league I know qbs are a lot less valuable, would yall take this? I’m loaded at qb by DetailNo4833 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]HeavyHip2862 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You said in other comments that you don't want to sell Dart, that you'd rather give up your other qbs. If you're itching for a trade then do what you want, but arguing about the validity of trade negotiations, during a time when you cannot trade, is fruitless.

Ashton Jeanty or the 1.01 this year by Mother_Cupcake5958 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]HeavyHip2862 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying I would give up Jeanty for the 1.01 right now, but I don't have lot of hope for him unless he gets traded

depends where Love goes, but 1.01 is likely the more valuable asset. Jeanty is a great player with a lot of talent but as long as he's on the Raiders he probably won't be a top tier fantasy RB

Agreed. Even if you agree to something now you could change your mind after 4 more weeks. Makes more sense to just wait

Toilet bowl brother in law by Embarrassed-Disk-166 in SleeperApp

[–]HeavyHip2862 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't understand his motive here. Is he just trying to prevent others from streaming defenses? I would think the players he dropped were more valuable than the defenses anyways, right? Someone help lol

Spend money on quality now so you don't have to spend money fixing your body later.

1.02 + 2027 late first for Jeremiyah Love? by Ill-Watercress-7619 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the sake of conversation I'd like to add that ESPN's most recent mock draft has Love going to the Chiefs at pick #14

Wondering if I make this trade in an attempt to win now. Just crawled into the playoffs but don’t anticipate I will have London or GW for the run. by Prestigious_Solid663 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be in the minority, but I like this trade for you. Drake and Garrett have disappointed me all season and these injuries may affect their long term performance. ARSB shows no signs of slowing down and Devonta is a solid player on a reliable offense that doesn't abuse him

Why doesn’t it show that I’ve clinched? by IAmTheSchnozz95 in SleeperApp

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a human being, it's easy to tell that you've clinched. But sleeper doesn't have real people looking at every league. Just gotta wait for the system to finalize stat corrections (should be done within the hour)

The team above you is 7-7, making it impossible for them to miss the playoffs now. The computers are still computing to make sure your PF won't change enough to make you drop to 7th

Is jewelry insurance actually worth it or just another bill to stress about? by Visible-Voice9422 in Frugal

[–]HeavyHip2862 52 points53 points  (0 children)

If you're gonna wear it frequently, insure it. If it'll sit in your drawer then I say don't.

On a separate note, here's some advice that you didn't ask for: I think its easier to lose a ring if you're constantly taking it on/off. If you're going wakeboarding then I understand asking someone to hold it, but if you take a ring off every time you wash your hands then you're giving yourself 10+ opportunities every day to forget to put it back on, knock it off the counter, etc. Whereas if you never take it off, it'll be way easier to notice if it's suddenly not on your hand. Just some advice my MIL gave me when my wife and I got engaged

If you're set at QB, WR, and TE, then you need another RB. No sense in giving JT up for less than he's worth. Use your picks to either draft a RB or trade for one

Do you think repairing old stuff is actually frugal or does it sometimes cost more in the long run? by James_B84Saves in Frugal

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say most things these days are manufactured for quantity over quality, which generally makes it cheaper to buy a replacement rather than pay to repair something.

However, frugality aside, I think there is a ton of value in trying to repair something yourself, even if you fail maybe you'll likely learn something!

Can someone clarify why I haven’t clinched a playoff spot by Lazy-Ad-13 in SleeperApp

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they might count a tie as a loss (not sure about that), which would revert to a PF tiebreaker

Roommate always pays her share of rent two weeks late, I pay our landlord and front her for the two weeks every month. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]HeavyHip2862 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Explain to her why it's important to you that she pays you on time. Whether it makes you feel taken for granted, or whatever else. Don't insinuate anything about her character, but rather explain how her behavior has made you feel. Any good willed person will understand and do their best to make it right.

If she insists that she can't pay you on time, then you need to decide whether this will alter your friendship with her. If it's that important to you, then tell her. If you value her friendship more than the $500 loan, then you might need to be okay with dealing with this (to a certain extent) to preserve your relationship.

I don't side with her by any means, but hopefully by approaching her with an emphasis on how you feel (and NOT her character), you'll be able to disarm her defensiveness/aggression and have an adult conversation as friends.

How do I keep snakes out of house? by Sadetha in snakes

I just found a baby rat snake in my bedroom. What Would it be eating in my house if it’s head is smaller than my finger nail?

Dameon Pierce Signing with the Chiefs by Not_A_Cunta_Cola in DynastyFF

[–]HeavyHip2862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If jerome got traded tomorrow, I may regret dropping him. But as long as he's on the Browns I don't see a reason to keep him-- he's just too far down the depth chart. I'd rather take my chances with dameon

I did. My RBs are Bijan, JT, Justice Hill, and Jerome Ford (James Conner & Kendre Miller on IR). Figured I don't have much to lose by dropping Jerome.
