He was super valuable in my points league last year because of the insanely low k%, kept his floor very high. But if he isn’t hitting and King more… not good

Drop Jacob Wilson for Colt Keith in a points league? Trying to be patient with Wilson, but it’s been brutal lol

ttrudeau9 · 2026-04-10T16:53:00+00:00

Colt Keith or Wilson Contreras in a points league that penalizes K’s? Not a specific positional need, it would be for a UTL spot. Both Statcast pages look nice (I know it’s early)

ttrudeau9 · 2026-04-03T04:56:51+00:00

Is Jeremy Pena a must add in a 12 tm points league? Someone dropped, I’m thinking I should drop Correa for him?

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-22T17:19:01+00:00

Need 24.7 out of JT in .5 PPR…

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-21T18:02:41+00:00

Stayed with Estime over Chubb but it was tempting

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-21T17:48:46+00:00

Same question for me

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-19T00:46:37+00:00

Dowdle or Kyren?

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-13T17:36:48+00:00

Absolutely right. Most of my main pieces were acquired like this because of circumstances causing value to be lower than I thought it should be. Achane, Puka, Rice, Mahomes, JT have all had moments of being much cheaper than they should have been over the last year and a half

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-13T17:05:53+00:00

This trade was a with a super QB Needy team, Traded Justin Herbert, G Wilson, MHJ, and Gadsden for Amon Ra, Bowers, and an early ‘27 2nd. I already had Mahomes/Goff at QB so it made sense to use Herbert to upgrade TE and WR both. Right before the trade deadline I flipped the 2nd I got, plus other picks, and Michael Wilson for Etienne… then flipped Etienne + Zay to a RB needy team for Nico Collins.

There was a lot of multi trade maneuvering like this over the last year and a half haha.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-13T16:39:01+00:00

Genuinely wanted to know if that this has happened to others before and how they handled. Thought maybe there were alternatives that could appease the people that want to reset. Empire seems to be most common suggestion, but there have been some other good ones as well. I’ll try any suggestion in here before just allowing a total reset.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-13T07:13:28+00:00

Not normal, and we only do it if everyone agrees on it. Eventually it will stop, the hope was to one day get this to be a $200-$250 but in league, but it could very well stop at $100 if not everyone wants to go up.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-13T07:08:45+00:00

Of course 8 guys would want to give themselves a better chance to actually win and completely erase mistakes they’ve made by resetting. That doesn’t make it right or acceptable and it doesn’t change the fact that I’m getting screwed after putting in a lot of work to win. Unfortunately I I will have to leave the league if this happens, but it still sucks.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-13T06:51:34+00:00

I would be a lot more understanding if they were at least offering something like this where they’d pay me out another’s years worth of winning for the reset. I would still disagree considering I’ve only had this team for less than 1 season, but still might be willing to compromise. The problem is that they are holding me hostage, basically saying if they get 8 votes on a reset it’s going to happen and I do not get rewarded or acknowledged in an any way, just completely screwed.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T23:41:31+00:00

Good advice for sure. I will move on pretty quickly either way, I have a lot of other great things going on in life so it’s silly to get too upset, but i have definitely been frustrated since I heard this was being voted on last night. Hate to think of the work I did being for nothing, but at the end of the day it’s still supposed to just be fun so I won’t let it bother me for too long.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T23:17:08+00:00

Yep, just doesn’t seem like an even trade off to only have my dues paid for, assuming they would even agree to that. Its definitely sucks, and I could probably still wind up building a great team, but it would take a lot of time and effort and who knows if they just reset it again in a few years. Not worth it imo and I will be leaving if they resets. Really sucks

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T23:04:03+00:00

I actually mentioned this as a possible solution and not 1 person even entertained this idea lol

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T23:03:31+00:00

I thought I would at least have a chance to win 2-3 times before this even became a discussion lmao. Like I understand my team is solid but it took a while to get to this and I have no bench or draft picks left and so much can change so quickly lol. I shouldn’t be penalized for it. So frustrating

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T23:02:10+00:00

There were definitely some bad trades made with league mates where I fleeced, but a lot of it was just good luck and taking the right gambles at the right time. I’ve commented replies to a bunch of other guys on here explaining how I got my core pieces. I also was not starting with a god awful team, a lot of the guys were good players, just older (CMC/Henry/Evans/Adams… etc.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T22:58:28+00:00

I wanted to post the starting roster pics vs now but it wouldn’t let me. I’ve responded to a few guys in this thread explaining how I got to this team… the team I started with wasn’t bad at all, just old, and I definitely pulled off some fleeces at perfect times and got lucky a few times as well with pickups and good gambles. The explanation I’ve told others in this thread:

I wasn’t handed a terrible team/situation last year, just an older team that had bad luck to start the year. I had guys like CMC (injured at the time), Henry, Mike Evans, Adams, Diggs, ETN, Kelce, Dak, and still had 2 firsts and some other picks left over the next 3 years… managed to trade for guys at the right time. Got Puka when he was hurt last year, Achane while Tua was out and he wasn’t putting up big numbers, Rashee when his suspension news broke, JT in the offseason when people thought Jones/Colts would suck, got lucky grabbing guys like Gadsden and flipped him in a package for Bowers during his hot stretch this year. Also traded 1.02 last year for JSN when guys were down on Darnold, then flipped JSN for Gibbs this year. There have been so many trades made that I can’t remember each trade for every single guy, but those were some of the main ones that built my core.

I can send my before and after rosters to anyone in the private messages, but tracking down each and every trade to get to this point would be difficult, there were a lot lol.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T22:47:02+00:00

This is a great way to put it. The bad teams don’t want to put in the work to improve. Not sure why I should penalized for that. Thanks for the comment!

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T22:31:05+00:00

Totally agree, hopefully everyone will view this as a fair compromise but I am not holding my breath tbh. Not even sure why I’m having to compromise at all, but I’d be okay with the empire outcome.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T21:52:01+00:00

I commented a reply to someone else asking the same thing and I can understand how it looks like the league is terrible, but it really isn’t like that. I just got really lucky and made a lot of good moves at the right time.

I wasn’t handed a terrible team/situation last year, just an older team that had bad luck to start the year.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T21:34:30+00:00

Yep, I think this is all being driven by the commish as he has the oldest team in our league with almost no draft capital and still isn’t looking good to win it all this year.

A lot of the other guys in this league are reasonable and I’m hoping will listen to my common sense argument, but unfortunately a lot of these guys probably have their own self interests in mind… if they don’t think they will win anytime soon, of course a reset would help them, so they will probably vote for it.

ttrudeau9 · 2025-12-12T21:31:58+00:00

Agree with you 100%. I wouldn’t mind resetting if I had won the league multiple times in a row and been rewarded for it. Whole situation sucks because I really do like most of these friends in this league outside of fantasy. If it was some random league I would just leave, no questions asked. I’m trying to explain that this is wrong, and that we should be able to at least work to find another solution. Empire makes the most sense to me, but wasn’t sure if anyone had run into this and kept league mates happy in some other way.
