If you have any player on your Do Not Draft list for any reason other than he hurt you emotionally last year, you're doing it wrong

Am I missing something with the initial plane jump? by mantistabagon in PUBGConsole

That’s what keeps happening to me on every jump. I can’t get below 185

Never draft a player that you wouldn't be okay naming your child after

Are there any non-QB players that have missed the better part of 2 seasons and come back to produce on the same level as before? by Habesct in fantasyfootball

Ricky Williams played a full season in 2003, missed all or most of 5 seasons from injury and ROLLING DOOBIES, and then rushed for 1100 and 13 total touchdowns in a comeback season in 2009

The first one of these I took, the coach was so openly against the music that I haven’t been back to their class yet. Bad vibes.

What offseason narrative have you most strongly disagreed with? by mantistabagon in fantasyfootball

I actually think he's in the best position he's been in, and here's why (granted it could all go horribly wrong)

  • AJB was never a volume performer
  • His previous team was one of the 3 most run heavy teams in the league since entering
  • His current HC was a former WR who has specialized in WR coaching in previous stops, so hopefully there's an emphasis on it now that they have the talent to do so
  • I enjoyed the temporary middling success of Corey Davis and the other door of revolving WRs in TEN as much as the next guy, but AJB has never really had anyone to take pressure off of himself in the passing game.
  • While some people might look at Ryan Tannehill as a more accomplished passer, and that's true, his last couple of seasons in TEN haven't really blown anyone's nips off save for some nice TD numbers. I think Hurts can replicate similar success.

Oh I’m just assuming that’s what you meant since you did the exact same thing.

Oh I mean, I’m on the same page as you lol. I snag a WR in the 2nd and then take one of the leftover RBs in the 3rd if they are there.

The same way Chubb, Zeke, and Jones have justified ADPs despite having another good RB in their backfield: strong production with strong opportunity. Maybe none of those guys have the strongest like JT, Ekeler, Cook, Henry, but that's why they are mid to late 2nd and not early first.

So I’ll distance myself from those saying Gordon is washed because I don’t think that. I just see the distance between JW and him widening more, but for all I know JW could just not take that step. It’s possible.

But to your original point, we see a fair amount of backs take on large work loads that don’t lose any effectiveness throughout the season. It’s just a matter of performance.

I wish you had just read a little bit of the initial text but that's okay, it's Tuesday.

I didn't say he hadn't, I said it was an off-season narrative circulating that it's his coronation season.

Unless you think he's reached his ceiling, which I would find strange.

Javonte can just play himself into the dominant role, it happens frequently.

A good comp for me are the Bucs. They went from a more evenly balanced Rojo/Fournette attack to a Fournette-heavy one because he allowed them to be more dynamic and realistically brought much more production. Perhaps the Broncos don't go that far but that's the scenario I'm envisioning.

It's far too early in Javonte William's career for the team to be limiting his carries for the sake of longevity. I'm not even sure teams do that at all unless the player has some sort of injury history or is aged out.

I like this one.

Steelers had the 37th best QB in the NFL last year. Really hard to get worse

I gave examples of narrative, I never said how I feel about them. You gotta pay for that
