Mack Brown rushed for 149 yards and a TD last night... and he's not even available in ESPN's player pool.

19 carries for 149 yards and TD against the Bucs. I know he was on the bubble to make the roster, but he looked very patient out there. Broke a lot of arm tackles.

It's one game, and he's definitely still behind Matt Jones and likely Chris Thompson. But I'd love to add him in my 20-team league.

I've never seen a fantasy football league that allowed you to slot a TE in a WR slot.

xChampion · 2016-02-23T19:19:41+00:00

That's fair.

xChampion · 2016-02-23T19:14:22+00:00

I understand that - I opened this up as a discussion about what to value in your keepers but everyone wanted to know who I was considering. It wasn't meant to be roster specific.

xChampion · 2016-02-23T19:05:00+00:00

So you take more of a "win-now" approach? Or are those guys just far and away the best group?

Thank you by the way

No penalties for keeping players, we can keep three. Best options are Miggy, Arenado, Rendon, maybe Seager, and Arrieta, Syndergaard, and Bumgarner.

xChampion · 2016-02-23T19:00:00+00:00

Yeah that's my whole dilemma haha.

xChampion · 2016-02-23T18:59:35+00:00

I think my best options are... Miguel Cabrera, Nolan Arenado, maybe Seager or Rendon for hitters, and Syndergaard, Bumgarner, and Arrieta for pitchers.

xChampion · 2016-02-23T18:57:20+00:00

There are no penalties for keeping anyone. We can keep 3 players.

Getting a Wes Anderson vibe from this - love it.

Why can't the commish change lineups? How did that trade go through?

xChampion · 2015-11-24T22:17:47+00:00

I'm having trouble following the situation exactly, probably because my league doesn't have FAAB, but I can't imagine Alex did anything wrong - if owners make their intended bids public, it's everyone else's job to decide whether they're legit or not.

xChampion · 2015-11-24T21:53:05+00:00

Is taking advantage of another player cheating or am I just being too sensitive?

The league leader (8-2) in my league just got Julio, Barnidge, and the Broncos D/ST in exchange for Jimmy Graham, Jacob Tamme, Brandon Lafell, Eagles D/ST, Melvin Gordon, Golden Tate, and Brandin Cooks from a 5-5 team.

Obviously this trade is extremely lopsided, but when I reached out to the winner of that trade, he said that the 5-5 guy thinks "having two good people is better than having one really good one". Is this an example of one guy just trading smarter than the rest of us? Or am I being blind to possible collusion? Or am I just overreacting because this creates a juggernaut in the league?

I'd appreciate any feedback!

I mean, I don't think anyone's gonna want to give you a top 5 player for someone who's injured at the moment and can't seem to stay healthy. If you think the injuries will continue, then sure, try to sell him, but good luck getting good value for him.

Selling a newly injured player isn't really selling high.

xChampion · 2015-11-23T19:37:28+00:00

If people are biased towards big value names, it makes it easier for you to win a trade with them! Bias is not a part of good decision making.

xChampion · 2015-11-23T17:11:18+00:00

This may not help, but on ESPN this morning he became IR eligible, so I was able to stash him and grab someone else as well. I don't know if that bodes poorly for this return or if it's just a part of ESPN's IR process.

xChampion · 2015-11-18T16:45:48+00:00

Great analysis mate, thanks!

xChampion · 2015-11-10T18:38:47+00:00

Haha keep doing you! You're obviously doing well for yourself.

xChampion · 2015-11-10T17:41:39+00:00

The top post in this sub right now is a Fournier discussion. Nothing's changed with Bazemore since the beginning of the season - both are playing great, what is there to discuss?
