Thoughts on Flipping The Board for Uniqueness?

Thoughts on Flipping The Board for Uniqueness?

Every once in a blue moon I like to "flip the board", i.e. pull up a player who usually is on the right side of the board to the left side of the board.

Obviously, I don't believe Ashton Jeanty is better than Bijan or Gibbs. However, I likely have the only combination of Jeanty, Bowers, Jacobs in the contest when I do this thus giving me a "unique combo" of early round players. If Ashton Jeanty ends up smashing, this can give me leverage over the rest of the field by having Jeanty paired with Josh Jacobs since most Jeanty teams will have him paired with Cook or Achane or Saquon.

It also helps that I got some pretty good CLV on the rest of my supporting cast.

What are everyone's thoughts on doing this type of strategy? Do you agree or disagree with doing this and why?

Favorite best ball draft YouTube live streamers

Who are your guys‘ favorite Best ball live stream Youtube channels? I know Mason kind of dominates the space, but it’s nice to have a change of pace sometimes. I recently discovered Liam Murphy and like him. Just wanted to see if anyone has other recommendations of guys they like to watch draft.

Feelin dangerous

If this team stays healthy and hill goes to the bills I don’t see this team isn’t top 2/12.

Puka, Jeanty, and 3 Double Stacks / SF

I don't know if this will work out, but man it was fun to put together.

Why not draft rice now?

30 days in jail. Missing OTAs and such.

Buy the dip?

I get the drop but when has this guy not missed something either for injury or court case?

I feel like everything landed, especially with this full Bills onslaught which I don’t think I’ll be able to replicate again!!

Am I too weak anywhere??

Who are your round 15+ dart throws?

Last year guys like Wan'Dale, A. Pierce, Corum, Fannin, and Woody Marks weren't league winners but produced points and were a great value in the late rounds. Who are round 15+ guys you're targeting that might not be league winners but will produce?

I find myself targeting guys like Dotson, Tonges, C. Kirk, K. Black, and Ayomanor. They won't be league winners but could find themselves in your lineups a good amount throughout the year.

Draft Position

Anyone consistently getting “randomly” placed at 9-12 draft position? It feels like bullshit. What’s up with this

Anyone else completely fading Ken Walker at his ADP?

Personally, I think he is going at the absolute ceiling and there are just better plays with the guys around him. Prior year Chiefs RB finishes also support it.

I think build 3-7-7-3 wins Draftkings contests this year.

That is all. I just think it's the best build on DK this year IMO.

Build thoughts?

I like this draft a lot as I was doing it, but as I got to the end, I feel like I could’ve used another wide receiver instead of either third tight end or a 5th running back. Could I have gone fragile running back with just for here?

The draft was going well until they released bye weeks

Started the draft before they released the schedule with all the bye weeks. Thought I was killing it and then I realized my 2 QBs are on the same bye, had to scramble and add someone who might not even play. Anyone here also prefers to take some chances early before byes are announced?

Although it might get thrown out because of the guy at spot 3.

Wemby Is A God And Inspired Me

That was an insane game and to hit that deep three he's not supposed to shoot? Ridiculous! If their head coach has a brain, Caruso is not guarding him next game. 🤣

Anyway, this is the only draft I've taken Kittle but it felt right with how I put this together. Like the great Al Bundy would say, "Let's rock!"
