Re: HGH Testing Over/Under

Considering Manning is still visibly throwing ducks out there and the only reason he's dominating is because of his brain, pre-snap adjustments, and ridiculously deep corp of talented receivers, he's pretty unlikely to be using HGH. Besides, it's not as if HGH would do anything for the nerves in hi...

Re: how to deal with tanking for gurley?

Normally I'm cool with tanking, provided the team is doing it by trading away all of their veterans for prospects and picks. You want to trade away Frank Gore and Reggie Wayne so you can start Robert Turbin and Jordan Matthews next week? Fine. Draft picks are supposed to reward bad teams, and these ...

Re: How do you value players?

I'm thinking of creating a tool to help people customize their player ranks based on how they personally value players. It seems like there is a lot of variation especially among writers. What factors do you use to evaluate a player's value? Here's how I see it: Important: 1. past production 2. eye...

Re: Any laughable offers lately?

So a guy in the league with the team below sends me the following email. It's like clockwork every new season, he expresses all the great reasons why I should take his offer and allow him to pillage away my decent talent. I told him that he was coming woefully short on his offer for A. Jeffery. Her...

Re: Got Evans, now I feel kina bad....

Yeah its a money league... $75 × 12 teams! You're right. Money is on the line and these are all adults with the same access to information and dynasty websites.... i agree, but ive found that some money leagues have collapsed because of a few bad owners loading up a few other teams. thats no fault ...

These things happen. Trust me, you're better off breaking the league by going hard than you are by half-assing it.

Re: 2014 RB drsft ADP vs now?

I guess that makes sense. I just thought if you valued Crowell highly enough to rank him 1st, you'd project him to get a workload that'd render West's ceiling lower than 3rd in this class.

I like to check ADP periodically for my own info gathering techniques. Any big jumps or drops for you with 2 weeks in the books? I've got a couple. MFL ADP 1. Sankey 2. Hyde 3. Freeman 4. Mason 5.

Re: Jerick Mckinnon, poor man's C.Michael?

I actually am a big fan. I am just leery when it comes to the consensus top guy lately. Seems the hit rate hasn't been great since Peterson. The problem is that running backs are way, way more reliant on their situation than we seem willing to admit. Guys like Morris, Ball, hell, even Foster and Go...

Which side do you like? (Second team in signature)
I'd trade away Cousins for the 2nd straight up. This is a steal.

For what it's worth, I think a disproportionately small number of them will be offensive skill position players.

Re: Cash out on RGIII?

I wouldn't accept any of those trades for RGIII either. One I would consider might be Griffin for Bradford. The Bradford owner is probably just a frustrated and willing to trade. Also, there is at least some chance that Same Bradford can have a healthy season. If Bradford does get a starting gig ne...

Re: Gloria Allred is absolutely ridiculous...

Joeday, how much non-fantasy football talk are you gonna throw around here while voicing your displeasure every time somebody gets suspended? There's no way Gloria Allred belongs on this board. And for the record, she's way, way worse than Al Sharpton. Dude, joeday is a huge contributor to these fo...
