Re: Startup Draft Advice
I'd go with Walker or Eifert depending on how risky you want to be. The 32 team aspect makes finding a good starting TE very hard considering a lot of teams just don't really use one (ARI, PIT, etc)
Re: Startup Draft Advice
Just refreshing this thread to get a few more opinions...
Here are a few players that are still on the board at 160. Just wondering who you would go with out of the following:
Emmanuel Sanders - Age scares me (30), but still productive
Matt Brieda - Chance of being the starting 49ers RB next year if Hyde is gone
Theo Riddick - This is a .5 ppr league
Ameer Abdullah - Afraid Detriot is going to try to find a different lead RB this off-season
Delanie Walker - Main target of Mariota but 33 years old
Tyler Eifert - Injury prone
CJ Prosise - Injury prone but young
You're on the clock, who do you pick??

Re: Startup Draft Advice
Delanie Walker will be 34 at the start of next season. Maybe he can hang on like Antonio Gates but the end could be any minute for him. We could have already seen it. I would put it 50/50 on him having even one more TE1 season, much less multiple. I can't see taking him that early.

Re: Startup Draft Advice
One of the main reasons I think he should take Walker is because he drafted Brees. Everything you said about Walker can probably be said about Brees, which is why I think he needs to try and go for it all now. If not, finding a replacement for Brees will be difficult in a league like this and this team might have to go into a rebuild sooner than later. So why not take the guy that will help you win now instead of other players on that list that can very easily turn into busts. 6th round in a 32 team league doesn't seem very early either.Vcize wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 3:14 pm Delanie Walker will be 34 at the start of next season.

Re: Startup Draft Advice
I'd reason that because he has Brees in such a deep league, his hand will possibly be forced into drafting a rookie QB. 32 rookies drafted per round makes it tough to get good rookies. He might not get both a good QB and a good TE...unless a sleeper tight end falls due to the IDPs being drafted.Goddard wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 3:23 pmOne of the main reasons I think he should take Walker is because he drafted Brees.

Re: Startup Draft Advice
I'm worried about Brees only having maybe 2 more years and was considering a possible trade for Flacco (not straight-up). At least he is cheaper and the unquestioned starter for Baltimore for at least the next few years.
Re: Startup Draft Advice
I wouldn't do that. If you're going to move Brees for a QB, you should either do it for someone younger with higher upside, or someone much better than Flacco.
Re: Startup Draft Advice
I also would not do that
Re: Startup Draft Advice
I would draft Walker. Try to win it all.
There will be a TON of teams that take a couple losses, look at their rosters and realize it's full of holes and start to rebuild, which will be nearly impossible in a 32 teamer.
Many teams will realize their season is done, and their future is bleak and I'd imagine you'll have a decent amount of turnover, potentially league ending in a year or two. Try to win while you can.

Re: Startup Draft Advice
This is actually a rather good point. Leagues like this are extremely hard to keep going. You should try to push right away.
Re: Startup Draft Advice
I've done a handful of 32 team leagues in the past few years. They are a lot of fun during the start up and it's something new. All but one has gone bust. That one is a 28 team salary cap with a decent amount of FA turnover each year so it gives teams a chance to get better.
My advice for the rest of the draft, get the non-flashy starters. Sanders, Walker, starting LBs, WR3s, PPR type RBs, etc while they are available. Then once you've got a lineup full of guys that score points, then take fliers, especially on backup QBs. One injury and they are gold.
