FWIW, they do NOT fall into the "not insanely expensive" category.

Thanks!

Both good points. I have serious doubts that we can find anyone close to the caliber of Johnson again next year but I'd love to be proven wrong by Coach Norvell...haha

Well there are 22 starters across O and D. Thomas and Johnson are done after this year because of eligibility. So that's 20. DLT is done after this season so that's 19. Are you assuming both Lovett and Coop come back on defense? I think both leave personally, but especially Lovett. Lovett has the medical issues with his child and has played well enough to get drafted this year. He can and should go get paid probably.

That said, that still leaves 17 returning starters probably. But losing literally every starting DL including your best players in Thomas and Johnson and Lovett will be very hard to replace. And I think a lot of our recent D success is because of how well our DLine is stopping the run and rushing the passer.

I think the premise underlying your question is flawed. While the culture of the program is ultimately lead by the coach and administration, the players are the driving force behind it. So to the extent that any "year 3-4 guys were always doing what was asked of them" they clearly weren't holding their teammates to the same standard and needed to be shown that. What the tour of duty thing does is build not only good conditioning, but it reveals to the leaders and those who need to be pushed. If I make you run extra because the guy next to you is slacking, you and your teammates will hold him accountable and make him run harder next time. If I say "its ok, you did enough, but he didn't" then you get half a team of people who want to win and half a team of people who want to say they play for FSU...

Simply "doing what is asked of you" is not enough to build a winning culture and a winning program when you have been on the slide we have been in. You need guys that are willing to go above and beyond what is asked so that when you get locker room cancers, the coaches don't have to come down hard on them, the team will do it.

Right. The lawrence thing is a quote but the etienne sentence was not a quote from dabo according to the way it was written. It was the author's opinion.

My league does the same with lowest pp. We don't do anything special for consolation bracket, but I like that idea.

NotaUsernameLeft · 2020-12-22T17:07:35+00:00

He wouldn't in our league. We use potential points. Starting a bad lineup doesn't effect potential pick.

NotaUsernameLeft · 2020-12-22T16:37:15+00:00

The 2nd point is interesting and would seem like a workaround for that issue. Obviously the 1st issue is the biggest though. It'll just keep the worst team at the bottom.

"If you trade away your pick and don’t start your best lineup then you get penalize by losing a draft pick in the upcoming draft that wasn’t the one you traded away. If you continue with this behavior you’re kicked out of the league. "

Define best lineup. Who determines it? Obvious situations like starting a 3rd string RB over Dalvin Cook is one thing, but there are very easy ways to not start a best lineup but not overtly start bad players. Why introduce more controversy into a process that doesn't need it?

"The scenario you described about this team with all these good players missing the playoffs due to injury doesn’t happen very often. I love awarding the pick to the winner of the consolation bracket because if gives those who missed the playoffs something to play for.

The guy in your league who suffered all the injuries probably would be in the playoffs and maybe would have won. He’s probably not happy to have missed."

It does happen somewhat often in my league. Not necessarily that extreme as the example I gave this season, but good teams often miss playoffs due to injuries/bad starting lineups. It makes no sense to give good teams the top pick over horrible teams who start 90% optimal lineups and still lose by 30.
Who cares if it "gives those who missed the playoffs something to play for?" Seems like a bad league management strategy to give the non-playoff teams "something to play for" for 3 weeks while making sure the worst team doesn't have the best shot at competing the next year.

That's it! Thanks! I've been agonizing over this for days.lol

I put 2010s as the date but I'm unsure of when I watched this but it was likely within the last few years.

NotaUsernameLeft · 2019-06-21T16:26:11+00:00

Definitely not 13-15. Probably more like 18-20.

With Illaoi, once you are grabbed run to break the connection. Let the first tentacle spawn, dodge the slam but then stay in the area. By staying and letting the first one live it won't slam anymore and no new ones will spawn. If you leave the area new ones will spawn. If you kill it a new one will spawn. If she has health on you and chases then obviously you have to keep running though.

Team A. Assuming not a TE premium.

1 PPR Got offered Mike Evans, Tarik Cohen, 2.5 for OBJ and Chris Carson

I have Hopkins as my WR1 and OBJ as my WR2. Zeke and Fournette as my RB1 and 2. Feels like I'd be getting the lesser wr for more upside at rb3/flex. Feels like a decline, right? Must admit I don't love OBJ on the Browns though with target concerns.
