SirA1 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 8 hours ago, swoosh said: 5. Freiburg Venom (Owner: SirA1)QB: Matthew Stafford (LAR)RB: Derrick Henry (TEN)WR: Adam Thielen (MIN)DE: Maxx Crosby (LV)DT: Derrick Brown (CAR)OLB: Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (CLE)MLB: Roquan Smith (CHI)CB: Jaycee Horn (CAR)FS: Devin McCourty (NE) Total Keepers: 9 (3 offense, 6 defense) Summary: Throw my rankings out the window because SirA1 always seems to outperform what I think of his roster. He either is a genius with sliders and/or I just underrate the talent of his roster. Henry is obviously special, but the rest of the roster leaves a little to be desired for me. Stafford just had a big year with the Rams and he's as solid as they come, but I feel he was elevated by that offense. Thielen will likely have a ratings decrease, but he's still a solid keeper at WR. Brown , Owusu-Koramoah, and Horn are all good young talents on defense, but feel they're a little too raw to be stars at this stage. Smith is polarizing at MLB, but LB is weak in general so I definitely get the appeal of keeping him. To close things out, the old vet McCourty is patrolling the secondary. Solid, solid group, just feels a little lacking with studs. Still a threat to compete for a title. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took advantage of some of the newest owners in the league & couldn’t even buy them dinner first. Absolutely abhorrent behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t keeping MT anyways and he made the offer. Better to take something than nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is probably the 3rd best sim 4-3 MLB in the league (Wagner/Leonard). And is consistent at getting to the QB for me. Just a stat monster. S23 - Roquan Smith [16 GS]: 108 tackles (11 stuffs), 8 coverages, 5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles. S22 - Roquan Smith [16 GS]: 102 tackles (7 stuffs), 9 coverages, 5 sacks, 1 forced fumble, 1 recovery. S21 - Roquan Smith [16 GS]: 111 tackles (17 stuffs), 7 coverages, 6 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 1 recovery. (3-4 so stat slightly elevated) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you've got two types of owners: the ones that reach out and propose trades to the others (and get value in the process), and the ones that don't and just complain about the trades that others make. swoosh is of the first variety, and does a great job of it.

Scalamania Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Also, for what it's worth - new owners making bad trades has been a long standing tradition is this league. I would say we're all pretty used to it but it's still funny to point out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesPeteC Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 @swooshthanks for taking the time to do these write ups. I agree mostly with my team assessment. I realized a season or so ago that my team was destined to constantly be in the middle, so I have been working to flip the roster to elite potential young keepers to hopefully build a strong core, without going full tank. Hence the drafting of Smith and Chase Young early, the flipping of ARob for Waddle, flipping McCaffrey for Swift etc. Time will tell if it works 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disgusting act Get off your rocker. Michael Thomas wasn't being kept. This is no different than me trading away Aaron Jones, who has been more productive than Thomas, for chump change. There's an opportunity cost to these tags. A pick is better than nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
