MightyMouse07 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 1 hour ago, The LBC said: I'd take Julio ahead of OBJ regardless. But does sound like OBJ could miss weeks 1 and 2, so that should ice that decision between the two for you. As to Shady... depends on how you read you league. PPR, I'd generally want to the elite receiver, but you are committing yourself to a stretch of 3 picks later on where you're going to need to go RB-RB at some point in them. So read the board and see what you think. It's more about what you expect the board to be like when it comes back around to you and how the options available there will compare to Julio or Shady. These are the best remaining players after keepers: (took this off a site real quick) Le'Veon Bell RB-PIT Antonio Brown WR-PIT Odell Beckham Jr. WR-NYG Julio Jones WR-ATL LeSean McCoy RB-BUF A.J. Green WR-CIN Mike Evans WR-TB DeMarco Murray RB-TEN Dez Bryant WR-DAL Amari Cooper WR-OAK Rob Gronkowski TE-NE Demaryius Thomas WR-DEN DeAndre Hopkins WR-HOU Brandin Cooks WR-NE Leonard Fournette RB-JAC Isaiah Crowell RB-CLE Ezekiel Elliott RB-DAL Keenan Allen WR-LAC Lamar Miller RB-HOU Travis Kelce TE-KC Alshon Jeffery WR-PHI Aaron Rodgers QB-GB Golden Tate WR-DET Allen Robinson WR-JAC Christian McCaffrey RB-CAR Larry Fitzgerald WR-ARI Michael Crabtree WR-OAK Davante Adams WR-GB Ty Montgomery RB-GB Marshawn Lynch RB-OAK Dalvin Cook RB-MIN Carlos Hyde RB-SF Jarvis Landry WR-MIA Greg Olsen TE-CAR Joe Mixon RB-CIN Jordan Reed TE-WAS Danny Woodhead RB-BAL Julian Edelman WR-NE Mark Ingram RB-NO Sammy Watkins WR-LAR Bilal Powell RB-NYJ Emmanuel Sanders WR-DEN So the people around my range are Mixon, Woodhead, Edleman, Watkins With that in mind grabbing Julio would make the most sense since then I'd be able to have a core of DJ/Woodhead/Julio/Pryor which is probably better than DJ/McCoy/Pryor/Edleman.

Dr LBC Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 10 hours ago, The LBC said: Doing the auction draft tonight for the league where I made the calculated risk of releasing Julio as a more expensive keeper to hold onto Michael Thomas at a $1 value. And, honestly, based on the keepers that dropped to the pool, I'm sitting pretty. Also released: WR: Mike Evans, Jordy, Davante Adams, Brandin Cooks, Baldwin, Amari Cooper, Demaryius RB: Zeke, Freeman, Shady, Murray, Ajayi, Gurley, Miller Two teams didn't keep anyone. And, at least according to my tiers, there were some really questionable keepers (even at the low prices): Thielen, Wentz (kept by the same guy who is keeping Luck at a high cost), Derek Carr (it's standard QB scoring, .5pt PPR in a 14-team league; Carr's my 17th-ranked QB), Blount (and I don't think it's at a low cost...), Dak (it's likely for $1 so I get it, but still). Thoughts on strategy. I'm figuring to just go hard after studs at my other WR and RB spots (I'll stream my FLEX if necessary), hoping to get both, satisfied if I get one and with value backup plan targets to cover my butt in the case I miss out at one of those positions (WR: Crabtree, Diggs, Fitz, Tyreek; RB: Montgomery, Powell, Cook - though rookie RB's usually get overpaid for, Woodhead, Crowell). Unless I get a chance to steal good value on a heavily red-zone targeted TE, I'm content to sit tight and take a target-vulture like Ertz or Clay (because seriously, who else is Taylor going to throw in the vague vicinity of in Buffalo?). Straight up MURDERED this draft! Went in hard and aggressive and I still have room to improve (since the guy with Dak as his cheap keeper still went out and paid good money for Rodgers and Brees and has laughable depth-if-even-starters at RB, while I've got 4-5 viable starting RB's). QB: Matthew Stafford RB: David Johnson (keeper - $10) RB: Zeke Elliott (I made hard, fast incremental raises and got him at just over half of ESPN's adjusted AAV even with them factoring in the suspension) WR: Michael Thomas (keeper - $2) WR: Golden Tate TE: Coby Fleener (last pick - $1... I'll figure to stream TE's or see if I can get value kicked back to me on a trade) FLEX: Isaiah Crowell DEF: Carolina K: Chris Boswell (I wouldn't have drafted a kicker at all, but it forced me to and wouldn't let me use the extra money on another skill position player to later decide who to drop for a kicker) BN: Larry Fitzgerald, Martavis Bryant, Paul Perkins, Jeremy Hill Mind you, this is a 14-team 0.5 pt PPR league. It's going to take a massive injury hit for this team to not be a playoff team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can survive the suspension of Zeke you'll go far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaguarCrazy2832 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Got our auction league draft tonight, 10 teams and $200 budget. Any tips? I plan on nominating high cost guys i don't want to come close to spending on so it helps me get my guys Trying to get 2-3 1st rounders at a cost of 45-52 each but then it gets really hairy there because i might miss on all of them if guys get carried away. Hoping the first couple guys people are afraid to spend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assume Williams gets ALL of Gil's TDs then Mccoy will still be fine Is there much of an injury worry with McCoy? I'm looking close to the range of taking him and that is scaring me a bit, but the WRs in that range have the same questions with Julio, Green, and now Odell.

My back up would have to be Jared Goff/DeShone Kizer. Luck will likely go undrafted (as dumb as that sounds) because he is such a cap hit and the cloudiness of the injury. Then I'd just opt for Rivers and maybe Kizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texansfan713 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Thanks to everyone who responded. I think I am going to pick McCoy at 5 and double up on WR's the next 2 selections. WR's are loaded. Plus McCoy is a bet for 50 receptions as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
