1st Startup Dynasty Draft...how did I do?

Postby smmcfarl » Thu Jan 21, 2021 10:28 am

This is my 1st startup draft I have done for Dynasty...with smaller roster sizes it's hard to get depth and future players so I tried to do my best to do both at the same time.

10 team PPR League
Start - QB 2RB 2WR TE 3Flex K DEF

QB: Rodgers, Mayfield
RB: Cook, Swift, Hunt, Moss, Edmonds, Pollard, Mattison
WR: Metcalf, McLaurin, Godwin, JuJu, Samuel, Kirk
TE: Fant, Trautman
K: Butker
DEF: 49ers

Picks: 1.09, 2.09, 3.09
12 team league - 1.0 PPR - 6pt TD's
Start 1Qb, 2Rb, 2Wr, 1Te, 2Flex, 1SF

Prescott, Brissett, Watson, Geno Smith, Corral
Mixon, Damien Harris, Carter, Jamaal Williams, Hines, Sermon, Ingram
Chase, Hill, DJ Moore, D. Smith, Marvin Jones, Shenault, R. Moore
Hockenson, Higbee, Smith, Otton

2023(1,1,1,1,1,3,4,4)
2024(1,2,3,4)

Love your WR for now and the future. All around you should be a competitor. I'd try to get my hands on a top 3 TE and make yourself a favorite.

Solid draft out of the gate which should give you a shot at making a run this year. Dynasty takes some time to learn and settle into, so enjoy the process of your first startup! Moss could be a sneaky good pick for this season and beyond.

You got 3 guys I’d have in my top 20 in a 10 teamer in Cook dk Swift, and still managed a good wr core. I like it. Having been through a league with low roster spots like this (started many years ago), I would do the following:
1) trade 2 for 1 any chance you get to get an upgrade. The waiver wire will be littered with young upside and if you’re active you’ll have a hard time managing end of roster.
2) push as hard as you can to add roster spots. This is way too shallow for Dynasty. I’ve managed to get 5 or so added over the years in my league, it’s still lower than I like but it’s much more manageable now.

Very nice startup draft! Solid across the board and should compete right away. Echoing Mtt33, I would say with rosters being so shallow, I would look to bundle end of bench guys for upgrades where you can, and go on the offensive in doing it. For example, I would try to bundle Hunt/Samuel for an upgrade starting RB to replace Hunt in the mid-RB1 tier. You will have a wealth of upside sitting on waivers that you can backfill end of bench spots with. Well done, and have fun!

Lots of trades and offers flying already in the league. Should I consider this one? Team also has Higgins but I feel that would be asking too much.

Get: Chark and 2.01

I for sure would not with those shallow rosters. Opposite of what I’d be looking to do...

It would be closer with Higgins instead of Chark to the point I would pull the trigger for the pick. But even then, while Higgins is three years younger, Mclaurin has shown he’s a top WR. Chark has shown only flashes.

Would this be reasonable/a good move?

Yes, please. I like both players on your side, but Hunt is still behind Chubb for now and Deebo looks good when he’s on the field. That looks like it may turn out to be the problem.
