Had my money league draft tonight and I really like my team (other than having some Chargers, Raiders and Broncos that I have to cheer for)
Picked 7th in a 10 team 1/2 point PPR:
QB: Russell Wilson DEN (11th Round)
RB1: Alvin Kamara NO (2nd Round
RB2: Travis Etienne JAX (4th Round)
WR1: Justin Jefferson MIN (1st Round)
WR2: Tyreek Hill MIA (3rd Round)
WR3: Mike Williams LAC (5th Round)
TE: Darren Waller LV (6th Round)
Flex: Chris Godwin TB (7th Round)
K: Daniel Carlson LV (14th Round)
DST: Chiefs (16th Round)
B1: RB Damien Harris NE (8th Round)
B2: RB Kareem Hunt CLE (9th Round)
B3: WR Elijah Moore NYJ (10th Round)
B4: RB Isiah Pacheco KC (12th Round)
B5: WR Treylon Burks TEN (13th Round)
B6: WR Christian Watson GB (15th Round)

My goal every year is to win high points for the season as that always pays out more than winning the actual finals in the playoffs as every waiver wire move everyone makes all season costs $1 and goes to the high point winner. Feels like a solid roster with some "high upside" young guys in Pacheco, Burks and Watson if they pan out to be contributors.

How did drafts go for everyone in their other leagues? Anyone psyched about their rosters?

I’m in a 12 team PPR league with 8 bench spots. 🤮, I know.

Someone took Mahomes in the 3rd and then Trey Lance in the 8th.

Agreed. My league has gotten a little better but we still have a couple guys who seem to just be winging it.

Mahomes in the third is a good pick if you think he can repeat his 2018 season.

You probably don’t waste a pick that early on a backup but I guess this dude is thinking Trey Lance will be a tradable asset. You shouldn’t count on that though.

Godwin is out and I have to start a third WR.
Penny is a bench guy for me but Jeudy will start until Godwin is back.
I got Jeff Wilson w my waiver claim so i'll put Mitchell in my IR spot so for my backup RB position i'll have the San Fran no. 1 RB ( Wilson until Mitchell is back ) instead of Penny.

Can't take fat zeroes at the position like Devonta gave me last week.

Makes sense.

I have Mitchell in a different league that has 0 IR spots so I am probably going to have to drop him.

That's tough but it's possible he's out til the end of November meaning you'd only have him for a couple regular season games and the playoffs.

Godwin is my WR4 on my money team and I accidentally started him at my flex Week 1 when I meant to sub him out until I had a better idea of his health. He'll be riding the pine in favor of Kareem Hunt this week. I actually moved Kamara to my flex since he is marked as "Questionable" just in case he is a late scratch. Sounds like he will play as he has just a minor rib issue; just wanted to be ready just in case. All in all, a pretty clean week from an injury perspective.

My other fantasy team is stacked at RB: Austin Ekler, Aaron Jones, Antonio Gibson, Darrell Henderson and I'm thin at WR. My main issue is Ceedee Lamb is my WR1 and his value is horrible without Prescott playing. Another guy in my league needs RB help because he has Elijah Mitchell on IR but is stacked at WR with Ja'Marr Chase, Davantae Adams, and DJ Moore. I'm offering him Aaron Jones straight up for Davantae Adams. Question for the crowd: give the circumstances here, would you take that trade?

I think so, yes, but depends on your other WRs.

Yes I would make that trade if I was you. No, I would not accept that trade if I was the guy that had Davante Adams.

Mike Evans is suspended for next week so I guess I will need to find a one week replacement for him in the KCrim league.

Just completed a big trade in my main league..

Gave up Chubb, D Adams and Higbee
Received Deebo, Breece Hall, Renfrow and Freiermuth

Both of us are in last place. So we wanted to try something different. I gained more points per week, but he has guys that can go for more points. My flex spots were extremely weak, so I needed some good depth.

Thoughts on this trade in a 2QB league where Team A lost Trey Lance as a starting QB:

Team A Receives:
Davante Adams
Courtland Sutton
Travis Kelce
Matt Ryan

Team B Receives:
Alvin Kamara
Raheem Mostert
Stefon Diggs
George Kittle
