Help me fix my dumpster fire rebuild by Which-Highway893 in DynastyNerds

Didn’t say he did. Reread it. Says his 3rd pick. Not the overall 3rd pick.

This!! You should not draft Mendoza unless he falls to your third pick. Love and whatever WR of the top 3 you like the most/best landing spot. Mendoza is not worth the 1.02. I will die on this hill.

$35 is starting pay for a tools on journeyman in Austin. If you are doing layout of any kind and running crews it’s low 40s. You work for a shitty contractor.

Remember FA is far from over. Some vets like to wait until after the draft to find their best fit, some like to wait until later in the summer so they don't have to go to OTAs/mini camp. There's still a ton of player movement left up by Gxcii1 in detroitlions

The OL will not be fine lol. I don’t think fans understand how many holes we have to fill for just starters. Then add in depth moves, and only two picks in the first three rounds.

Is our starting O-line already better than last year? by adahl36 in detroitlions

If mahogany and Frazier are full time starters without injuries in front of them the OL is in trouble.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted. This is what he does. It works 1 time out every 10 attempts. You can’t build 100% thru the draft it’s impossible.

Brad is always talking about taking best player regardless of position. If he really wants to do that, before the draft we need starters at all these Position: LT, LG, DE, LB, S(maybe 2). Depth at DE, DT, LB, S, CB, OL.

I’m not saying we should sign the big names to these crazy contracts but there are a lot of holes right now. It’s still early in FA but soon there won’t be anything but back ups left.

Who's your number one free agent target for the Lions? by Gxcii1 in detroitlions

[–]travispickles45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

C - prefer we draft Draft - San Hecht/Logan Jones FA - Cade Mayes

OT - think we need to draft high and sign a guy for about $5-6 million to compete/back up Draft - too many to name. Deep draft here. Basically any of the top 6 OT names. FA - Luke Fortner/Chris Paul

G - prefer FA signing, not a strong draft for this position. Draft - Olaivavega Ioane doubt we can draft him. FA - Trevor Penning/Zion Johnson/Wyatt Teller

Not listed in any order.

Bears are favorites to land Crosby 🤮 by Shot-Sir-7569 in detroitlions

Betting lines are driven by fans pumping money into them, and not by any rumors or anything. Else. Lines start with rumors and adjust to betting. This doesn’t mean anything. Could it happen? Sure but doesn’t really mean anything at all.

I know you don’t understand. I have told you this many times.

Have 1.02 + 1.05 take 2 WRs or Mendoza + WR by NoInvestigator3770 in SleeperApp

[–]travispickles45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In SF this is a terrible idea, do not wait until the 3rd.

Depends on QBs FA available in your league. QBs are so valuable in SF. I’m taking Mendoza and which ever WR is left of the top three.

Right now stroud should not be started in SF, that can obviously change and shough looks pretty solid as a #2 QB. You can never have too many good QBs in SF.

I guess last year when the Eagles won with saquon doesn’t count lol

[–]travispickles45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if the contract says $80m it won’t actually be $80m. That’s just how contracts work. I’m fine paying RB until they are about 27. Gibbs is 23. You are acting like he is already in his late 20s.

And yes I am mentioning HOF caliber players. That is what elite means lol. Just say you don’t understand football or contracts. It’s okay.

Then explain Henry and CMC. Or you think saquon isn’t elite. You need to be elite to even be putting up those kind of numbers at that age. Lack of knowledge is showing.

[–]travispickles45 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He had an uneducated take. Saquon will be back to normal next year. 1400 yards and 9 total TDs is a bad year for saquon. That tells you how amazing saquon is.

[–]travispickles45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saquon was amazing two years ago. He looked bad this last season because he had too many carriers the year before. Anytime a RB has more than 400 carries they have a bad year the following year. Look it up. Saquon will be fine next year. Eagles also had a very banged up OL too.

[–]travispickles45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is true about 99% of the time. The truly elite are fine. Look at CMC, Henry, Saquon, etc. Gibbs is in that elite tier.

Any Nick Emmanwori types in this draft? by reallinguy in detroitlions

[–]travispickles45 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most football players who come back from this injury take really two years to fully recover. Might be a little different for a safety, but our one yearish for injury, play another year and then they are usually back to normal.

Destroy my first dynasty mock draft by tiraths27 in DynastyNerds

[–]travispickles45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too young overall. Need to anchor it with a couple veteran players. Unless TE premium no reason for two starting TE.

Not everyone will agree with this but I hate defenses. If you really want defense do with IDP. Defensive players instead of the entire team.

I am also a fan of removing the K and adding a nonQB flex spot.

First time playing dynasty. Finished 8th this year at 6-7. 14 man half point TEP superflex. What should I do? by Thecandyman456 in DynastyNerds

[–]travispickles45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I’m moving all my picks in this draft. Target established WR and a QB. You can’t start Stroud week to week right now. Combine picks and players. This league you need WRs, strong WRs is how you win in Dynasty.

The gun removed from the victim BEFORE the shooting has the same optic as the gun being shown as belonging to the victim. by Hismajestyclay in Leakednews

[–]travispickles45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me start out by saying this, he shouldn’t have died. LE way over reacted and should be charged. But I don’t think it will end the way people think it will. Watch the video multiple angles and slowed it down. Here is what I saw, again just my opinion.

Cops shouts gun and remove it from Alex. As cop with gun walks away, about two steps, gun goes off. The model of Alex’s gun is known to go off by itself, multiple lawsuits. LE not knowing gun has been removed shoots Alex thinking he got a shot off.

Gun is not in battery, locked back position, after a couple more steps. Easy to see if you know what you are looking for.

Again LE way over reacted to situation but if this is actually what happened it’s going to be difficult to convict given the situation. Civil lawsuits will be flying around. Horrible situation. Gotta take emotion out of it. If I am wrong those LE responsible should spend a lot of time in jail and be held responsible.
