These trades offered by commish right out of the draft 🌮

I’m in a gross rookies only redraft league just for the funsies. Draft just ended and trades just opened. Commish proceeds to send me his 9th rounder for my 2nd lol. When I asked if he has a non joke offer he sent the same trade again, i obviously declined and he “upgrades” to his 4th rounder. I said that if I wanted Fields over KCC I would have taken him in the 2nd, or 3rd.. or the 4th right before he picked him..

Do stupid people accept these trades once in a while to give managers the confidence to send them? Or is it a “you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” situation. Idk if I’ll ever understand it as I always send offers that at least make some realistic sense for both sides.

Rookie only redraft league, who’s going to have immediate impact and who’s a fade for this season?

8 tm RB/ 2WR/ TE/ FLX/ SF/ 2IDP
1.5 TEP / 1 PPR RB/ .5 WR
IDP 6 pt sack & INT, 2 pt tackle

Free league for funsies. Which players other than the obvious will have immediate impact & which wouldn’t be a good pick for redraft?

Curious where Mendoza goes as he may not play for a lot of the year. I drafted Lemon & KCC so far. Probably should grab a TE & RB my next 2 picks. Feel like pretty much every team will have players that barely play starting & RB is kinda risky with no guaranteed starters besides Love & Price. IDP is jacked but with the 2 pt tackle as long as I can snag a full time LB they’ll score a lot, probably waiting on that with more depth at the position.

League is silly but it’s just for kicks. Any advice appreciated!

Winning online players, I have some ?’s for you

Hey all, I’m not a beginner to poker but just started really studying seriously and playing online. Curious about a few strategies from winning players.

When you’re in a game with very nitty players, do you up your aggression Preflop and try to steal flops? It can be frustrating to have most premium hands get folded on most of the time & I notice I can usually steal with a pre flop raise bluff at a profitable rate. The tables are usually a grind, another option is just wait for a very strong hand and for an opponent to have something strong as well to build a big pot or all in pre flop with the best equity. Can take ages but in my experience is a quick way to get a lot of value. Last option is just moving tables to find more fishy players.

How often do you bluff/ try to steal pots? In tight games seems a bit easier to bluff players off post flop at any sign of weakness and I’ve noticed for the most part the bets tell a good story for most opponents. Alternatively, I see a lot of pre flop raisers not wanted to get off premium hands when they whiff a flop & try to use that to my advantage.

How often are you moving tables? I like to learn my opponents which takes some time but I think I can get better about more quickly moving from tables that are too tight and slow to increase profitability.

One area I know I need to study is bet sizing. Haven’t read enough about it and tend to go off feeling and instinct rather than tried & true strategy.

Open to book/ learning suggestions! I tend to play a few hours* a day about half the week. Really enjoying playing and learning and interested in any other strategy or lessons learned in addition to the questions asked. Thanks for you time! I know I have a lot to learn but it’s been a fun journey so far & looking forward to continually working on my game.

Those who have won an auction league in the last few years, what was your winning strategy?

Did you send it for the top guys & spend 60-70(30-35%) each on some high end assets? Did you go more value oriented & grab more players in the 25-45 range for a deeper lineup? Do you attribute it to “luck” getting JSN/ Maye for a steal?

I know top RBs had and insane year so imagine a lot of people that got Bijan/ CMC/ Gibbs/ JT had strong teams. I really like auction for redraft and just wondering if there’s any info we can reasonably use from league winners last year(or any recent years).

I thought I got a steal in SF with Lamar & Hurts for 70 total. Obviously they both dissapointed. I had cook rice & jsn so I had a good season but got murked round 1 when I played against ETN & TLaw who had their best games ever.. Not much you can do about that lol.

Chopped league faab budgeting help

I’m in a crazy league where the draft was stopped after 2 rounds and the rest of the players are on waivers. I have 8 spots to fill with 10k faab and struggling with what to budget. I want to get some good players to avoid early elimination but I want to have some funds for when big names drop to waivers to build a super team for late game.

It’s 32 team so we’re in the 64+ ranking range, only Geno left for QBs (SF). What would yall bid on guys like Fannin, Kraft, Rice, Smith, Egbuka and lower guys like Pierce, Monty etc that won’t make the Final Cut(hopefully) it’s .75 TEP. Ideally I’d be replacing guys like Smith & Buka with top 10 WR by the end of the season if I make it, so if I blow 1k each on 4-5 of the top options that’ll make it tough to land the big names as they fall to waivers.

Should I target more of the lower end guys to fill a roster cheap and save the 1k+ bids for the roster locks? Or just go for it and try to skate to mid season and hope everyone’s budget is hurting at that point.

32 team chopped league strategy advice

Doing a 32 team chopped league with some crazy settings, bonus items, sabotage, punishments etc.

It’s SF so I had to go QB round 1, picking middle of the pack. 10k faab available, what’s your strategy for faab budget?

I’m thinking of being aggressive week 1/2 and trying to spend half or a little more on the top few players depending on who’s available to get ahead of the rest of the league and avoid early elimination, then be a little more selective for the rest of the season. Thoughts on this? What % of faab would you throw at locked in starters? It’s start 10

Rosterbation station - It’s peak offseason let’s see those lineups you can’t stop drooling over

It’s a great time of year to look at the team you’ve built and fantasize over skating to the championship, before injuries and underperformances start taking names.

1st team is my favorite, second is sneaky good (1.25 TEP+++ & .1 pp return yard), 3rd is a full startup punt with an easy road to the 1.01 and tons of future picks & promising rookies. All 3 are startup squads. Lmk your thoughts and if you’d make any moves and I’ll do the same for you.

u/HeroForTheBeero — 1 month ago

Would you send Nabers & Fannin for Chase in TEP++(1.25, can’t flex TE)

Manager is open to it, said he wouldn’t need Stowers so wanted to work him in but I asked him to just see if he can get another deal done to move him as I don’t want to lose depth for a rookie bench TE.

I’ve withdrawn the trade for now but if he is able to move Stowers would you do this? Or is there anything you’d send for Stowers to get it done? The 27 2nd I have is going to be early imo so I’d rather keep it.

Thoughts on this ménage a trois?

Curious to see what people’s thoughts are on this 3 way. I can see an argument for every side. Team sending Nabers is competing and looks like Nabers is out for a bit of the season. I punted my whole startup for future value. Going to get smith and hopefully package some of the other picks & maybe some 26 rookies to fill out my lineup.

27 1st is projected late

Tate & a 27 1st(unknown) for Nabers? Or Tate, Boston, 27 late 1st for Nabers/ 28 2nd

Full punted my startup draft, 5 27 1sts, 5 2nds & 4 28 1sts. Tate, Tyson, Price, Lemon, KC are my noteable players, definitely getting the 1.01. Would you do either if the law deals to acquire Nabers?

Acquire Nabers for Tate & Lemon on a startup punt team?

Tank team, 5 27 1sts and 4 28(& 5 27 2nds). Offered Nabers for Tate & Tyson. I’m not fully on board because I feel like Nabers value is close to the top and Tate/ Tyson have a chance to rise considerably. I wanted to do Tate & a 27 1st but we’d have to work out a 3 way because he’s not looking for picks. If we don’t get that done would you take the original deal?

Not a dedicated soccer watcher here that always watches the WC. Is this USA team really good or am I just ignorant?

Watching them on offense pass the ball to each other while attacking is one of the smoothest teams I’ve ever seen. Granted I don’t watch a ton of soccer but I don’t know if I’ve ever seen more effortlessly connection between players. I know we’re not a favorite but are they actually nasty or am do I just need to watch more soccer? Any other teams in the cup that are notably smooth on offense? It’s really fun to watch them.

First & 3rd are my offers, 2nd & 4th are the counters 😭

1st trade I sent as a starting offer, figured it was a little light but we could work from there. Received the 2nd & charged with him and it was 100% serious.. I sent the mondre trade as kind of a rebuttal but made it at least within reason. Then I got the last one.. thought he was trolling me but nah 100% serious lol. Said he could add a 2nd to Javonte.. Don’t think we’re going to get a deal done lol.

Send Ladd/ 27 1st for Pickens/ 27 2nd? Deep lineup league 3WR 3FLX

Team I’m trading with said he plans on punting this year so 2nd **should** be early, not guaranteed.

The 1st isn’t mine, team included. Hard to say if he’ll be good or not. No depth so could be really bad but if DJM, Hendo, Downs end up healthy and have great seasons he could contend. I’m leaning mid 1st though, who tf knows though.

I’m on the fence. Ladd scares me but definitely had a shot at a WR1 finish, he could disappoint with the chargers spreading the ball around though. Pickens feels safer on such a high volume offense, not sure if the difference is worth moving back a round in the 27 draft. Also if the team who’s 1st I have has any injuries and Nico/ MHJ/ Hendo struggle it could be an early pick.

What would you do in this situation? Also open to tips on my team. With such deep lineups I opted to trade my 1.06(ARSB) for a late 2nd & 3rd and ended up getting Achane and JT, was pretty happy how the board played out, that’s who I wanted to grab to make the trade worth it.

I want to trade my picks for 2-3 more starters but after the 5th/ 6th rounds anyone that was interested in a punt was done buying picks and the only team tanking would only take them for a 7th+, basically only would take fleece deals. I think that after the 1st 1/3rd of the season once some teams realize their team sucks I can get a lot more for futures. The demand for them is just too low rn. This is the best offer I’ve gotten since people stopped buying. For reference I got a 4th and 5th for 2 27 1sts prior.

Traded out of the 1st for the first time, how do we feel about it? 12 TM SF PPR Dynasty .25TEP

+Stafford & 9.07 - 6pt pass TD

League is start 3WR 3FLX so it’s a deeper lineup & I tried a strategy I hadn’t done before of moving my 1.06 for the 2.11/3.07. Turned into ARSB for Achane & JT. Got a 27 1st for the 5.07 then sent both my 2 27 1sts for the 4.11 & 5.02. Ended up taking an offer of MHJ(6.06) for a 27 1st.

Ideally want to go all in and move picks to solidify my lineup, no one is interested in futures at this point so may need to wait until some teams have a rough start and look to the future, or potentially after draft if things change.

Only two teams have taken futures/ punted and a lot of people are trying to compete. Due to low demand picks have become undervalued so another option is to take advantage of that & pivot to a punt. I did an instant rebuild strat in my last draft so I wanted to go for a deep build & compete on this league but would consider switching strategies due to the league dynamic and cheaper value of those picks. The last 27 1st went for a 7th & many are itching to sell them to keep up with the all in teams. Since demand is low I could likely load up for a great price should I decide to go that route. The picks will inevitably gain value as teams are eliminated from contention and rookie hype kicks in.

Leaning towards sticking to the original plan but wondering what the fellow nerds here think. Other recommendations welcome as well. If my teams end up not being competitive, the biggest risk is I pick values will likely go up as more teams go into reloads/ rebuilds and start buying.

Comparing to other teams there’s no one too stacked that I see, a few top heavy teams that have super weak flex. 2 teams reached on productive older guys & that could have them very strong for a year or two barring injuries/ regression.

I know not everyone plays with this mindset and that’s totally fine. I like to treat dynasty like the stock market and capitalize when I can to gain an advantage.
