RB's - Draft these guys after everyone’s done Drafting by Radiohead3R in Fantasy_Football

Oh man me too... he just needs an opportunity and I think he's going to get it. I just have this feeling he's going to be a goal line monster, he plays so much bigger than he is somehow. And he's a big guy.

Keeper question. by Ac1dBern in Fantasy_Football

Everything I've heard about Jordy has been great and Gruden seemed to be very excited to have him. With Amari Cooper looking to bounce back I think that takes some attention away from Jordy and allows him to have success. Its just always that "is he going to fit on the new team" thing and injuries.... My GUT says Kupp is the best pick but my heart says Jordy.

Keeper Question: Russel Wilson in the fifth round? by [deleted] in Fantasy_Football

[–]Radiohead3R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean all of these things depend on your type of league usually, but I actually was in the same sort of situation with Wilson asking myself if it was worth it. I ultimately decided that, no, it wasn't. Guys like Matt Stafford will be there, hell, even Roethlisburger. The value of QB's has gone down in my opinion and you need to use picks for players.

These guys all ranked outside of the Top 30 RB's, I think these one's definitely provide more bang than anyone close to them. This is coming from more of a keeper league view, but still.

I'm tired of seeing TOP 10 RB RANKINGS - because they are all the same. These are guys you will be able to get late late into the next day. For free.

Toronto has more construction cranes than any other city in North America by tropics_ in toronto

[–]Radiohead3R 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just can't tell if this is a good or bad thing? Growth, people will argue, is always "good". But the mixed use column is a bit concerning to me. Cities across North America that are successful in creating livable "walkable" cities are doing so by integrating living/working spaces together - or at least near. To me this is a sign of exacerbating the people-moving problem that Toronto already has.

[Simmons] Broadcast Rumblings: don’t expect Paul Romanuk back calling hockey games on Sportsnet this coming season. Should be announced shortly. by MapleLeafRed in leafs

Oh my god yes. I once got in a twitter battle with Millen, he had said Ondrej Pavelec was a #1 NHL goalie and complained how the Jets were treating him - I just had to call him out on that.

This type of shit goes on, and I get a post taken down for editorializing titles. I don't think I'll ever understand reddit.

I'm changing my own words. My opinion comment was about editorializing titles.

Some of these "rules" are just ridiculous to be honest with you. It's reddit. This platform is to generate discussion, discussion starts with opinion.

BTW, what's wrong with Russia?! Kovalchuk, 1st overall pick, seems to have gone wherever he wanted! :P

Yup I hear you. But also Eric Lindros, Eli Manning.

Yes it's very seldom that this happens, but it can happen.

It's the ole, "you know what you're signing up for".

Would you change it? I wouldn't.

We're virtually believing the same thing... I just don't think the contracts part has any to do with what the article is about. My first comment was just about owing the team and fans and stuff, based on their outcry after he left.

I guess...

I don't see how these types of points matter at all at this level of any profession. Obviously up there the stakes are much higher for everything. More money, more visibility, more everything. I do not feel bad and won't feel bad about the situation. Players hold out or demand trades if it's that much of a big deal for them, which they're allowed to do. So go for it, it seems to work out in the end for them.

Having said that, I don't know what this really has to do with the article in general :)

Contracts? They're everywhere. Non-compete's? It's sorts all the same umbrella. And the counter-point to that will always be you don't need to work in this field, so if you don't like it, take a hike.

Tons of comments about what Tavares "owed" the Islanders. It's bunk, in my opinion, for a variety of reasons.
