You don't sign a meh guard to a 9K deal because you have cap space. The bidding war on Tomlinson was absolutely beyond me. Especially when Marpet ended up being cheaper. Some mixed up thoughts Loved what PR did in this. Secured the best G on a decent deal. Halapio has a lot of upside as well. The older T went for relatively cheap. Good deals for the 3 of them I disagree with Lukic, I like the Jimmy G deal. He has more upside than Stafford/Cam. I would only argue that Jlash should have gone Matt Ryan at this rate. Especially since nowadays QBs play well into their 30s. I didn't get why Counselor signed two RT to long term deals. I like James, with Munchak coming in I think he can one the best RT in the league. But why go after LaEl as well after that? Really didn't like WSR haul. I don't know who Finney is. Donovan Smith is a backup in BDL. And Morse is always injured and not great when he's healthy. Lots of cap spent for this, and I don't think they'll get a lot of production out of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of cap spent for this, and I don't think they'll get a lot of production out of it Clearly, Rags and I did not anticipate the situation. Marpet signed on Tuesday and Tomlinson later in the week. My guard spot has been subpar for some years and unlike Morse and Marpet, Laken is extremely durable. We got tremendous value on the starting tackles (less than 12k total), so I made the best decision to build a quality team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD4L Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I knew it wasn’t going to be viewed as a great signing but it is what it is. Not every move needs to be applauded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFLukic Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Marpet has played as many games as Tomlinson since being in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD4L Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Tomlinson has missed one game in the last two seasons. He wasn’t particularly good his first few years hence we traded him. We couldn’t go into the year with shark tank guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedLavie Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Also, can we go ahead and start defense week? No point in waiting a day I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedLavie Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I don't remember what's the exact rules on this, but Lukic bids go above his cap space. Not sure if they're valid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirA1 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Ted please send out a blast to everyone to let them know you are starting early as some people may think they have until Wed night to bid on players. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oline depth has demolished teams in this sim. I’m three LT’s (two starting one potential player) and 3 RT (same thing) deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Mitch Morse was actually one of the best centers in the League last year when healthy. BJ Finney he's a swing guard Center for the Pittsburgh Steelers he has starting experience and has played very well in doing so. He was the starting center two seasons ago when maurkice Pouncey was out for pretty much the entire season. Donovan Smith most likely will be a backup in BDL for my team. Let's be real the free agency class in this league is not particularly strong so you kind of got to go with what you've got available 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I'll be interested to see how these opinions right now carry over to the regular season because it seems like a lot of people already are pre-determined determined on how they plan to vote on matchups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirA1 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 You could have gotten Finney and Smith in the Shark Tank though for $450 each most likely on 1 year deals. I know you are overly concerned with turnover though. (You shouldn't be over half the rosters turn over every year for the most part.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
