BEAR FACE DOWN ARROW Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 (edited) Anyone want to do a fantasy league from the forum again? I really can't tell you how much I enjoyed scoring the most points last time but somehow exiting super early when everyone just ran a train of hitting their season wide peak points against me every week. On topic: What Bears do you think will be good values in fantasy? I find this to be a far more interesting question than normal as you have a rookie QB but one with a great supporting cast and decent legs to make points on his own. Which WR is going to be worthwhile or are they all going to balance out? Kmet has been good at FF but does Waldron still lean on TE with all the WR talent? Honestly I don't know a lot about fantasy but the Bears seem like a team that could be OK-good in real life but not have any good FF players. For prizes I suggest something non monetary but awful, like loser has to change his avatar to a Packers logo or listen to an entire Die Antwoord album.

I'm in if anyone else wants to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ffs thank you, I'm a bit scattered at the moment, so I'll just choose the 35th of Jultembust In all seriousness, if there are days you prefer or days that don't work let us know. I'll happily put up a bottle of decent wine for first place as the packers fan I made a bet with on here never got back to me. Rather one of you have it anyway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epyon Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 I'd be down to join, but only so long as it's a just for fun league, since I'm terrible at FF. No worries whatsoever if ya'll would prefer to do a league with stakes, though... I can sit it out.

Considering I just talked about how terrible at FF I am, this probably won't be the most useful advice, but: 1. Unironically, Caleb Williams at QB. Our OL looks questionable at best, we're stacked with tons of weapons (4 WR, 2TE, and a great level receiving back), and our schedule has us against what would be a combined 31st or 32nd ranked passing defense for the overall season. 2.Swift-RB should be a decent pickup, maybe even a great pickup as an RB 2. As long as he's healthy, he'll get the majority of the carries, and given the offensive line, probably a ton of panic-dump off/check down "passes" The risk with both of them, honestly, is health behind that OL. I wouldn't take any other Bears weapon from offense... There's too many mouths to feed, and odds are good that one guy will just randomly not get much production on a given week as other guys light it up. Beyond those, Bears Defense should be good for FF, I expect some turnovers with the secondary, but we'll see how the pass rush looks.

The couple times I've done FF I kept trying to stupidly get Bears QBs for personal reasons. It always worked out as well as you mnight think. Swift makes sense, they don't really seem to like Herbert and Johnson doesn't seem to be living up to draft hype. For WR I could see Moore having a good season, and if we're considering health implications it's fair to (please no) expect only a partial year from Allen. As for the Bears defense, I'm not as bullish. They beat up some bad teams last year, I don't know if Phil Snow is still around, and the latter half of the year is going to get tough, especially on a team without a ton of proven depth on the DL.... So no wine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
