Startup done. Can I compete?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Startup done. Can I compete?

Postby jnappy » Wed May 24, 2017 10:14 am

I just finished a 12-team Superflex startup. It's bestball with tiered PPR (1, 1.25, 1.5), and rookie picks were in the draft. We start 1-2QB, 1-4RB, 2-5WR, 1-4TE, 2DL, 2LB, 2DB, and here are my noticeable players:

QB: Winston, Russ, Dalton, Hoyer
RB: Coleman, Powell, Riddick, Thompson, Woodhead
WR: Dez, KA, CoCo, Doctson, Snead, Tyrell, Decker, Maclin
TE: Eifert, Ebron, Fleener, Clay
DL: Griffin, Avril, Graham, Hicks
LB: Vince Williams, Hightower, Houston, Ingram, Correa
DB: Shawn Williams, Dillon, Tandy, Allen
Rookie picks: 6.10 :think:

Do you think I can compete this year?

I think it all hinges on your RBs. You're strong at every other position, so if you can get decent production from guys like Riddick, Powell, and Coleman, I don't see why you can't compete.

X2 if you rbs hit your offense looks to be really solid. THe issue I actually have is with your lbs, as unless you reward pass rush lbs I'm not a big fan of them

I am not sure if you can compete...You are starting 2wrs which presume will be Dez and KA. I honestly have no idea who you will start at RB and who will be your two flex.

like what you did in the draft...you're QB depth is good and maybe you can move Dalton for a better RB or WR (I'd take the best available out of the two because of your starting requirements). I can't imagine with up to 24 qbs starting every week that Dalton wouldn't be at least a QB2 on a few teams. Good luck

Yeah my RBs are pretty weak. Luckily we only have to start one, and it's bestball, so I don't have to pick who to start. You don't like those WRs behind Dez and KA? Should I be making moves to retool to try and compete in 2018?

I completely missed that it was best ball...So that does give you a better shot! I should work on my reading skills :)

I've learned in my short time playing superflex that if you have two or more solid qbs you can always compete.
