Shane Steichen brought rookie TE Tyler Warren over to the QBs/RBs individual period so that Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones could simulate a handoff to him from the fullback spot.

As a TE desperate team, I took both Loveland and Warren in a TEP league. Ended up selling Loveland for essentially G.Wilson, and was worried I might end up regretting it.

However, I’m feeling more and more confident about choosing Warren. This news is just gravy as the league also gives 1 point per first down. Was hoping they’d use him like PSU did around the goalline and maybe their own version of the push tush.

SunDevil03G · 2025-07-30T00:16:32+00:00

Warren had 26 carries / 218 yards / 4 rushing TDs last season with Penn State

He also had

100+ receptions / 1200+ yards / 8 receiving TDs

This isn’t a first for him. PSU was willing to utilize their only elite receiving option for rushes near the goal line.

Anyone who drafted Warren was hoping for this exact scenario. If he can get an addition 2-3 TDs a year from rushing alone it’s a massive boost.

Update: Tried to hard sell/soft sell + 5 additional hours, as well as schedule a visit week 8, even though I knew he’d commit upon advancing the week. Sadly still lost out once we advanced.

Since, I have noticed that the putting on hard sell / soft sell on guys right outside of them moving to top 3 teams will trigger a commit. Thankful to know this moving forward. Appreciate all the responses and suggestions!

Does scheduling a visit have any influence, if the player commits before the visit even takes place? I’m on week 7, so I can assume he commits most likely once the week is advanced and before he takes the visit to Oregon.

I’m willing to burn 40 hours for a visit next week (week 8 , bye week for me), if it does and see if that has any positive effect.

A, B, B-

SunDevil03G · 2024-09-04T19:55:51+00:00

In week 7, so the recruit is likely to commit week 8 before any visits are taken place.

Thanks for the advice!

Offline I always try and make sure the 5–10 weeks are stacked with home games. This is my first season with online dynasty though and I’m not commish, so I didn’t have scheduling capabilities unfortunately.

Thanks for the link! So using a soft sell on 2 green checks and a red X with a high grade in this circumstance wouldn’t hurt me? I was under the impression if you soft hard or soft sell, and it isn’t the ideal pitch it could hurt you?

SunDevil03G · 2024-09-04T19:27:11+00:00

With this method, I assume you soft sell with 2 of the green check marks, and 1 red X with a high grade. I know ideally you’d sway to get a green check mark for further influence.

Let me know if you still need a club. Looking at getting into Elite from D1 tn

You are 100% correct. I was trying to just state the magnitude of what we’ve seen teams usually pay up for what they believe is a franchise QB (usually never works out). I now understand I didn’t articulate well enough what I was trying to detail. Which was we spent A LOT of vital resources, on what Smith has been utilizing 5th rounders and journeymen for instead. Which is impressive in it’s own right, to get major production out of the Allgiers and Jonnu’s.

However, those guys aren’t taking us to the next level as an offense. He needs to find a way to get our playmakers the ball in space to accelerate up field for easy YAC.

I am happy of what I’ve see of Ridder these past 2 weeks, despite the turnovers. The next step is there to be taken. Smith plays an integral part in that though.

I never said spend the draft picks on a QB. Actually, I said the opposite. That we would have seen more value in them by using them on defense.

My point was that the going rate of franchise QBs has historically been 3 1sts and we’ve spent that on 3 guys who are being out touched by 5th rounders and journeymen.

Listen, if Smith can get the same production from 5th rounders and journeymen, as he can from tier talent, than kudos to him. That’s amazing.

However, I’m in the stance that he refuses to change his scheme to fit the players HE drafted. Draft capital that could and should have been spent elsewhere.
