Re: Sam Howell

Piled in the shares during the '22 offseason via 3rd/4th rounders and UDFA sweeps through the waiver wire before the season kicked off. I had him as QB2 after Willis and ahead of Corral in what I considered the worst QB class since 2014, and 2019. Had a first round grade during the summer of '21, lo...

Re: 2023 Draft

Say what you want about the value use of the picks, but Lions are adding some good players. Detroit has made some very good player personnel moves the past couple years. They are building a team the right way and very methodically. It will be interesting to see if those in charge can make the right...

Re: Way, way, waaaay too early 2023 Draft class thread

CEH over Taylor is probably the poster child for not valuing situation over talent. It's funny, because a ton of people predicted it in the moment that it would be a huge mistake, but it didn't stop people from doing it. The "Andy Reid makes RBs elite" narrative was so misguided. My big r...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

Well "done" is the wrong word. NFL FO's get his talent, but I think it's reasonable to argue that he's never again going to be close to worth what he was from fall '21 to early fall '22. But if Monty can leave chicago and get a big deal and Miles Sanders can leave Philly and get a big deal...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

Will see. Imagine his ADP drops in redraft and dynasty and there could be a but opportunity. The reality is Swift owners should’ve sold him before every season after his rookie year. His value has just consistently dropped every year. Will the trend continue? Forgot to respond to this. You're right...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

I don't get that take. Swift backs it up in terms of production when he gets the ball, he doesn't get the production when he's hurt, or because of his injury issues or whatever, isn't getting touches. By any metric the guy is ridiculously productive per touch, period. His rushing metrics are absurd,...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

Big difference in the comps between Swift & Penny. When healthy Coach Pete fed Penny the ball ... We will never know what Swift would do in a lead role of 15 touches per gm. We've seen what Penny can do (especially against the Lions) and if not for the knee injury Penny stocks would be way up. ...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

Very glad I didn't give in to the 1.05 1QB demand from the Swift owner in one of my leagues. He offered, I tried to get it done for players instead, he balked, and now, ouch. Of course no grace for me, I already had a million shares, and believe in the player, but at this point, he's a lost cause i...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

#freeswift No seriously, why aren’t they trading him? They could, but why would they? From a real football standpoint, Montgomery/Swift is one of the best tandems in the league on paper. Detroit's offense is loaded. Another reason is that Detroit would not get much in return for Swift. NFL teams ra...

Re: Terrace Marshall Jr

Seems people are willing to buy for a 3rd? I think that's a fair price. Agree with those who wouldn't pay a 2nd. I have that option (of buying for a 3rd) for team 2 in sig. But to put things in more general terms, how would you rank the following players value-wise moving forward? Not an option to ...

Re: Post COMPLETED Bijan trades only here (1QB, non SF)

Have this on the table and still struggling with it (1QB PPR 12 team):

Give: Javonte, Jameson Williams, 1.12, 2.12, '24 4th
Get: 1.01, 2.10, '24 3rd

I lose by a little in the trade analyzer, but it's damn tempting.

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

Going through this thread, you can tell Swift owners are starting to get angry. Maybe next year is finally the year for Swift. That's the weird part, kind of feels like a sunk cost to me. I've accepted that even w/his ADP where it is, it's one of those: I'll buy for less.... I'll only sell for mark...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

How many clueless front offices and coaching staffs have to be hired and fired, for us to avoid that kind of appeal to authority fallacy? It doesn't mean that we know more, we work with far more limited information than they do, but I've seen far too many organizations value the wrong things, laugh ...

Re: D'Andre Swift: Skilled but "soft"

He's not in the same universe as Swift in terms of talent. I get that his talent for staying healthy is a checkmark for him and a minus for Swift, but beyond that, there's literally nothing of consequence he does that's better for a football team trying to win games. It makes zero sense to me. He's...
