It was very similar with AJ Green and Julio Jones. Similarity - pre-draft more folks had AJG as the top guy (like MHJR) but there was a vocal minority on Julio (like we have with Nabers). Difference - the draft played out the opposite with JJ going to the situation that looked better. There were bi...
Purdy and 1.02 is on the table? It seems like you get two upgrades: 1.05 to 1.02 (likely MHJr), Smith to Purdy, and then a 2.02 to close the gap? Sure, sign me up... I totally whiffed, and missed the upgrade from 1.05 to 1.02. Yeah, that makes this a much more difficult decision. I'll go with perso...
I tend to wait and see overall, though I'm also not getting these elite prospects most years. No reason to risk it with my competitive teams. I think I had Olave on the bench for 2-3 weeks before I started him and he had a fast start. Same here. Last year I didn't start Stroud until week 4. Did not...
I think if we look at last year we had a few players get out of the gate fast—Stroud in HOU of course, as well as Bijan and Gibbs, Achane to a degree, as well as Puka, and LaPorta. I agree that last year (and every year) a few players show early that they can start for contending fantasy teams. Wha...
What about a pivot to Purdy? He has a glut of QBs and is looking to deal one of them. Initial stages only but there is potential for the following: Give: 1.05 + Devonta + 2.02 Get: Purdy + 1.02 I'd be happy to pay the premium of swapping the 2.02 for a '25 1st to ensure I got Stroud over Purdy. No ...
I'm curious to see what rookies you think you'll start? QBs - None of the rookie QBs would be auto-starts for either of the two teams in my sig. I would draft one if given the chance, but not with the plan to start them in year 1. I think contending teams are taking a big risk planning on making a ...
I definitely would not have to add more to this deal to land Stroud as the owner has already indicated his willingness to do this deal. I probably have until Saturday morning (when we draft) to decide. If the guy is willing to accept the offer as is, I would be afraid to wait too long before finish...

The possibility of missing on a rookie QB is why I lean toward paying a steep price to acquire Stroud now. Halfway through the 2024 season, if Stroud is dropping T10QB week after T10QB week, his price is going to be a lot higher. But if you hit on your two picks, you'll be okay. How confident are y...
Gotta disagree with Ant on target %of catches being applicable here. Arthur Smith was an ignoramus of epic proportions using Pitts as clear out deep ball guy so much while creating ways to get the ball in the hands of Jonnu Smith in easier / higher percentage routes. Didn't watch all of the games b...
For starters, Pitts has to be better than Engram and Njoku. I'm not sure Pitts can do that. That 80 catches looks both reasonable and too much. Even in Pitts' "breakout" rookie season when he had 1000+ yards, he had only 68 receptions. Yeah, less than 1 extra catch per game for 17 games w...
If I'm the Stroud manager, this is an easy decline for me. I would need the pick to be high enough to ensure I could get Daniels. Otherwise, there is not nearly enough value in this offer for me to give away Stroud. A mid-level WR2 and two mid 1sts isn't enough for me to give up a 22year old T4QB fo...
Give: Rice, Nico, Ferguson, 2025 3rd Receive: Chase Ok, I’m overvaluing my guys here.. I was going to offer this for Chase, but it looks like it isn’t close to enough. What should be added to make this a fair offer? This is TEP, so Ferguson is a little more valuable than at first glance. But Rice h...
