What is your BEST dynasty team?

Postby joeday » Thu Jul 20, 2017 11:29 am

Every so often new members of the forum will see the Mastodons team in my signature when I am responding to one of their posts or writing a post of my own and inevitably comment "that team is ridiculous, do you play with 4 year olds" or "no one should have a team that good, is it even any fun" or "is this a two team league?" (just to answer - no, they are all adults...yes, I love winning...no, 12 teams)

Keep in mind the Mastodons league has been around since 2001 and is only a 12 team, 10 player keeper league, so it is very easy to get a stacked team. I also benefit of being the only league member on DLF. If you would have seen my teams pre-2011 you would laugh at me!

Anyway, this had me thinking...I see a lot of stacked dynasty teams in people's signatures and am just a little curious what your best dynasty team is because, let's be honest, most of us own more than one! We did this a while ago (a best and worst teams thread) but since new people are joining the forum all the time, and it is the off season, I figured a post like this would be fun. I think it would be great if you could post how many teams your league has and when the league was established (and maybe when you took the team over if you weren't there from the beginning)...plus any other fun notes about your team you can think of.

I will wait to post until a few others do, but since the Mastodons are not technically a dynasty I will not be using them!

Team is the one in sig, 12 team dynasty league established July 2015, pretty proud of how it's turned out considering I didn't even start watching football (aside from the SB) until 2014

How it looked week 1, year 1:

QB: Andrew Luck, Tyrod Taylor
RB: LeSean McCoy, Melvin Gordon, David Johnson, Jay Ajayi, James Starks, Chris Johnson, Ronnie Hillman, Brandon Bolden, Karlos Williams
WR: Amari Cooper, Brandin Cooks, Jeremy Maclin, Jordy Nelson, John Brown, Phillip Dorsett, Brandon Coleman, Devin Smith
TE: Tyler Eifert, Ladarius Green, Darren Waller
DST: Texans, Chiefs

In the last two years the only constants on my team have been Luck, Melvin Gordon, DJ and Amari Cooper (traded Maclin away in year 1 then traded for him about a month ago when he got released)

Year 1 I finished 9th with a 6-7 reg season record and last year I finished 3rd with the top reg season record of 11-2, I definitely got lucky with some players panning out that I was mostly just taking shots on but I'd like to think I've gotten better at trading and assessing talent on the waiver wire

Team in signature. Superflex. Although most of my teams do look very similar, I think this team has the most total value. Sure wish I could get a stud QB though...

My best is from my sig, 12-team league

Andrew Luck
David Johnson / Lesean McCoy
Julio Jones / Mike Evans / Michael Thomas / Allen Robinson
Julius Thomas
Gostkowski
Cards D


For perspective, I drafted Michael Thomas & Allen Robinson with my draft picks, Andrew Luck with a pick I traded for, I traded Melvin Gordon + for David Johnson early on, I traded Moncrief & picks that became Derrick Henry & Treadwell for Mike Evans. I also previously owned Calvin Johnson who retired while on my team... and Peyton Manning who I included in the deal that landed me the pick that became Andrew Luck. Rookie fever had someone offer me 2nd year Lesean McCoy for rookie Ryan Matthews.

All in All... 10 years, 4 championships, 9-top 3 finishes, 2 2nd place finishes. 12 team league.
12-team Non-PPR QB, 2-RB, 3-WR, TE, K, DEF
QB: Herbert, Tanny

team in sig. Won the championship last year and snagged 1.1- Fournette along with Tyrod Taylor by getting rid of picks and Alshon Jeffrey so far this offseason. Every one makes fun of it because it is only an 8 team league, however, we start 2QB, 3RB, 4WR, 1TE, K, DEF, with no flex. It makes it more competitive than people would think. After being terrible I tore it down and rebuilt. We're going into the 6th season. After never making the playoffs I made it to the Championship but lost and then won it last year.

I would probably have to say Scarecrow Boat is my best dynasty team. It is very weak on depth, but if my starters all play 16 games I think I could have a good shot. It is a 12 team league, 28 player rosters, PPR scoring and established in 2014. Starters are 1QB, 2RBs, 3WRs, 1TE, 1FLEX, 1K, 1D/st. I went 3-10 in 2014 (but was decent in points) then 10-3 in 2015 (winning the championship) and finally 12-1 last season (but lost in the semi-finals...playing Tyrell over Nuk cost me a trip to the finals).

QB - Drew Brees, Kirk Cousins, Brian Hoyer
RB - Le'Veon Bell, Todd Gurley, Danny Woodhead, James Conner, Jacquizz Rodgers, Jalen Richard, Fitzgerald Toussaint, DeAngelo Williams
WR - Odell Beckham Jr., Antonio Brown, Dez Bryant, DeAndre Hopkins, Josh Doctson, JJ Nelson, Eli Rogers, Victor Cruz
TE - Tyler Eifert, Greg Olsen, Jared Cook, Adam Shaheen, Maxx Williams, Dennis Pitta

I think maybe this one. 12 team (.75/1/1.25)PPR I took over an orphan that had just "won" the 1.01 deservedly to close out 2013.
2016 Champ on the legs of Bell/DJ. Traded many early picks/prospects for more proven guys because the buy in is pretty high. Only pieces remaining from original 2013 loser are 1.01(Watkins)/LBell/Witten

QB: Wilson, Kizer, Hoyer
RB: Bell, DJ, Booker, Forte, Hill, JWilliams, Pumphrey, CMike :wall:

Pretty cool thread. I remember when I first joined a few years ago I saw some stacked teams and wondered how they got there. But really, 3 years or so is a long time in dynasty and if you look at ADP from then you will see how fast the turnover is.

I will say that usually these stacked teams happen because of picking on a few owners. It only takes a bad trade or two to really swing make a team stacked, especially when a good owner is operating the controls. You have to hit on a lot of picks and constantly churn your roster over in most cases.

As for my best team, I'd probably say team 2 is my best although I haven't won a championship with it. But I was able to get Evans at 1.04 in 2014 thanks to Sankey and Hyde going in front of him which usually doesn't happen. I flipped Alshon for Bell a few years back. And I basically sold off Michael Floyd and a few pieces for Hilton last year. I just acquired Zeke a few months ago so I hope that is what it takes to put me over the top.

In a 48 team league (4 copies of each player), I was league champ last year. And I had some nice draft capital to work with this year:

QB: Winston, Stafford, Kizer
RB: DJjohnson, Leveon, McCaffrey, Lacy, Procise, Joe Williams, Rawls
WR: Dez, D.Baldwin, Landry, Alshon, Corey Davis, Tyrell Williams, Galloday, Ardarius Stewart, Hurns, Hogan
TE: Eifert, Engram, Julius Thomas, Kittles, Shaheen
DEF: Seattle

The league is 5 seasons old. In years 1, 3, 5, I went to the final game (won it last year). In years 2 & 4, I had top 2 seeded playoff teams but lost in the divisional round.

I would say team 2 in my sig. We just did an auction startup and everyone went with the redraft mentality, so I was able to get a lot of good value. It's a superflex and start 2TE league. So having luck and Rodgers is huge. I have solid RBs with lots of upside. Grabbed the lesser performing stud WRs. I loaded up on TEs as we have to start two and other people were neglecting them. I plan on trading them later on. I don't know much about IDP, but based on ESPN projections, I grabbed 4 of the top 15 players for this year and they're young for the most part. On top of all this, I have two 18 1sts (neither mine). I project one to be very very early and one to be mid to late.

My team is very young and should dominate for years to come. People in the league are newbies and don't realize how far ahead I am of everyone else right now.

As an aside, if I'm looking at just the next year or two, team 3 in my sig might be the best team. We have x2 rushing yards and I have Bell, Zeke AND DJ with solid production from every other position. I should be the heavy favorite barring injuries for at least a couple years.

I think the team in my sig is darn close. Traded picks, AB, Freeman for the likes of Mariota, AJG, Cooper, Rodgers, and what will be close to the top pick in 2018 (team is real bad). I lack depth at RB, but looking to address that at 2.01 and early in 2018 draft

12 Team 1PPR SuperFlex

QB: Aaron Rodgers
QB: Matthew Stafford - CJ Beathard
WR: AJ Green - Brandon Cooks
WR: Julio Jones - Corey Coleman
WR: Dez Bryant - Diggs - Djax - John Ross
WR: Demaryius Thomas - Ardarius - Taywan Taylor - Paul Richardson
RB: LeVeon Bell - Eddy Lacy - Ingram
RB: Ameer Abdullah - Montgomery/Jamaal Williams/Devante Mays
TE: Travis Kelce - Jimmy Graham - Ebron - Everett - Butt
Devy: Saquon Barkley, Nick Chubb

Walked away from the startup draft in 2012 with Aaron Rodgers (1.01), Julio Jones (2nd), AJ Green (3.01), Dez Bryant (traded up into the late 3rd), Phillip Rivers, CJ Spiller (7th), Mark Ingram (9th), Michael Floyd (11th), Randall Cobb (12th), Josh Gordon (19th), Russell Wilson (20th). Traded for a contenders 2013 1st, then he was struck by injuries/busts and I ended up with a 1.01. Somehow hit on quite a few devy picks: Sammy Watkins and Keenan Allen as sophomores; Amari Cooper, Stefon Diggs, and Isaiah Crowell after their freshman years. Got great draft values on guys like Jordan Reed (4th), John Brown (4th), Hunter Henry (3rd), Dak Prescott (4th), Ty Montgomery (4th). Drafted and then flipped guys when they were the flavor of a week or off-season like Tyler Lockett, Matt Jones, Jeremy Langford, Tyreek Hill, Tyrell Williams, Jamison Crowder, Julius Thomas, Brock Osweiller, Willie Snead, Kenbrell Thompkins, and Bryce Brown.

I wish I had that much draft and waiver wire luck in all of my leagues!
