overvaluing ertz?

Postby vixen » Wed Sep 20, 2017 6:23 pm

i got this offer in a superflex TE premium league
i give ertz and kupp
i get jj nelson, cook (TE), and 2018 4th

this is for team 3 below with strange scoring
WR=.2ppc/1ppr/.25pt per target TE=1.5ppr/.35per target/.15per yd
also .1pt per return yd/.05 per attempt
we also get distance TD bonuses, too much info to include

i know my WRs don't look great, but i usually start all 3 TEs and with the return yds, locket, thompson and patterson have some value...

Ertz is the 4th highest scorer in this league (including QBs), JJ Nelson is the 21st

the league was sleeping on TEs during the startup this summer..
.i drafted:
gronk 4.06 currently 8th highest scorer
reed 6.06 currently 49th highest scorer
ertz 10.06 currently 4th highest scorer

i seem to be getting similar offers from other teams for ertz, just want to make sure i am not overvaluing him ... i admit i was trying to trade ertz before the start of the season, thankfully all offers were rejected.
best one was when i offered one owner
i give ertz and 2017 4.08
i get floyd and 2017 2.04

thankfully rejected with this counter
i give 1.05
i get floyd, 2017 5.04 and 2018 5th round pick
when i asked if he thought floyd was worth 1.05 he responded
Of course not but
Floyd >>>>>> Ertz
2.04 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> 4.08
Outrageous proposal countered with outrageous proposal

i said: ertz, in a TE premium and Floyd with no team and facing suspension...ok then....
this was when i heard rumors that Floyd was visiting MN (homer) and i thought my WRs were terrible..
anyway, fun story...
but i am not crazy, right? Ertz is uber valuable

I think I got a migraine trying to wrap my head around that convoluted scoring system, but yes, Ertz is valuable in practically any format, and yes, that's a shitty offer for him.
Both are 12-team 1QB PPR dynasties

🦬PRIME🦬
QB: Hurts, Howell
RB: Mixon, Jones, Sanders, Dobbins, Akers, Roschon, Dowdle, Kelley
WR: Nuk, Godwin, Cooper, Lockett, Flowers, Chark, Collins, Hollins, Tillman, Tolbert
TE: Hockenson, Chig, Trautman
Taxi: Willis, Z. White, M. Mims, T. Palmer

Hull Awaits
$450 cap, 60 contract years

QB: Lawrence $5/3, Richardson $5/5, Minshew $1/0, Jones $1/0, Heinicke $1/0, Tyrod $1/0
RB: Achane $4/4, Warren $2/4, Roschon $7/5, Dillon $4/1, Hubbard $2/1, Kelley $1/0
WR: Nuk $78/1, MT $25/1, M. Williams $1/0, JSN $21/5, Reed $4/5, Rice $4/5, M. Wilson $2/5
TE: Thomas $1/0, Hill $1/0, Parham $1/0

i know, it is crazy...i knew TE premium, but the distance scoring..well, i still don't remember it...
none of the top players drafted are at the top of scoring, so pretty dumb....but i usually commit to at least 3 years for a league...

Horrible offer for Ertz, borderline insulting.
