This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Where to go with this squad?

Postby blemly » Thu May 02, 2024 6:10 am

Despite playing fantasy and dynasty for a decade now, I’m still somewhat at a loss as to what I should do with this particular squad. It is a 12-team, SF, 0.5ppr, 1.0ppfd league. Start QB/SF/2RB/WR/2FLX.

QB: Young, Cousins, Tannehill, Lance
RB: JT, Charbonnet, Gibson, CPatt, J. Wilson, Akers, Herbert, Ibanikanda
WR: Devonta, Flowers, Pickens, Godwin, Dotson, Douglas, C. Samuel, M. Wilson
TE: Njoku, Knox
24 picks: 1.04, 2.04, 4.03, 4.08
25 picks: 2 1sts, 2nd, 4th

Any advice on what to do with this team? To me it seems to be perfectly in purgatory. Too good to truly tank and not nearly good enough to compete.

I mean you’re absolutely right. I have an opportunity to sell JT for the 1.02 and flip the 1.02 for 1.05 and 1.07. Might be a good place to start.

JT for 1.02 in a Superflex with those QBs and WRs is the absolutely fastest decision you can make. Also like the idea of moving back unless CW falls, then grab him and fix your biggest hole.

Re: Where to go with this squad? UPDATE

Postby blemly » Sun May 12, 2024 11:58 am

This is entirely not worth a separate post as I am mostly just pleased with how the rebuild has gone with this squad since my last post. I've been extremely active in trade talks and made the following six trades to totally flip my team around and set it up for the future:

1. Give: JT + '25 4th
Get: 2 '25 1sts, '25 2nd, 2.02

2. Give: Cousins + Godwin + 2.04 + 4.08
Get: 1.05 + Downs

3. Give: M. Wilson
Get: 3.03 + $15 FAAB

4. Give: 1.05 + '25 1st + D. Smith
Get: 1.02 + Purdy

5. Give: Purdy + Charbonnet + 2.02
Get: 1.01

6. Give: C. Samuel + Lance
Get: 3.04 + 4.10

I drafted Williams, MHJ, and Nabers at the 1.01, 1.02, and 1.04 and still have the 3.03, 3.04 + 4.04 left.

Current roster:
QB - Williams/Young/Tannehill
RB - Akers/Gibson/Herbert/Wilson/Patterson
WR - MHJ/Nabers/Pickens/Flowers/Dotson/Chark/Downs/Douglas
TE - Njoku/Knox
3 '25 1sts, 2 '25 2nds, '25 3rd

Feel great about the future now which is significantly different than how I felt two-three weeks ago.
