My rotowire roster. Picked 6th. Full PPR

Starters

QB: Kyler Murray
RB: Devonta Freeman
RB: Austin Ekeler
WR: Davante Adams
WR: Keenan Allen
WR: Tyler Lockett
TE: Austin Hooper
Flex: Cooper Kupp
Kicker: Faibairn
DST: you all my strategy with defense. I always roster two units, planning ahead one week to stream. Wll be streaming eagles week 1 and Bills are rostered for week 2


Bench:

Derek Carr
Latavius Murray
Rashad Penny
Ito Smith
Jamaal Williams
Marvin Jones
Zay Jones
Muhammed Sanu
Trey Burton


Feel like i got the most value i could out of the brutal 6 spot. I like to target high upside running backs for my bench if the starter was to get hurt. Chubb was a key piece for me last year using same strategy.


Somebody in my leageu stole Zeke late round 2. The draft was right after Jones said he expects him out multiple games. Now of course hes about to sign.

That’s the worst fantasy team I’ve ever seen.


Would be pretty remarkable to get this thread moved to the fantasy section

Melvin gordon to the eagles would be massive for Ekeler.

A fantasy team only a gay guy could love...if he was in the shower with these stiffs. Must be a 20 team league as I don't see who your first rounder was. On the other hand, I picked up Luck 45mns before he retired because one of my leagues drafts last weekend so the retards can spend Labor Day with their families.

Hahahaha

It's bad

Yea i think you said that last year too

Then i lost the championship by 6 points to a guy with $250k+ lifetime earnings on NFFC

Stick with your league that lets you draft michael thomas round 4 or whatever it was.


Good to be back

I have the best wr core in the league with Adams, Allen, Lockett, and Kupp. Kupp is a legit WR2 and im able to start him in my flex. Got a RB1 in Freeman in the third round. And whats looking like a solid rb2 in ekeler in round 6. Was the last in the draft to take a qb so ill take a high upside option whos rushing and terrible defense gives him a high floor. Then i stashed several RBs on the bench who have instant RB1 potential if their starter goes down.

Picking 8th tomorrow. Love Julio there but will see how it falls. Like the 8 spot a lot in third round reversal.

Where do you see Chubb's value this year? I got him ranked 8th this year amongst rb's.

Wow I can’t wait to see this thread bumped constantly with you talking to yourself after every offensive play that involves one of your scrubs. So exciting. Love your game script analysis too!!!!

Shouldn't a thread titled "JustinCruise Official 2019/20 Fantasy football thread" be in the fantasy sports section?

You have really good wideouts and don't hate your running backs. I wanted Lockett but went Galladay over him and Keenan Allen got sniped 1 pick before me earlier.

You really stacked up on Falcons with Freeman, Hooper, Sanu, Ito Smith

yea. Needed a legit RB1 in mid round 3 and Freeman was only player available that offered me that. Ito as a handcuff obviously. Hooper was because I was last team to select a TE. Don't really love him but he was best available. Sanu a 16th round pick. Guy I can throw in a bye week with potentially more value with Julio or Ridley go down. Julio scares me this year with foot problems already and hitting age 30. Falcons also have one of the most favorable schedules in football for fantasy.


Fantasy pro picked me to finish 4th in the league

Drafted in my $500 league tonight full ppr, picked 8th.


Fantasy Pro picked me to finish first in this one. I might like it slightly better than my first team but its close.


Starters

QB: Russell Wilson
RB: Leveon Bell
RB: Austin Ekeler
WR: Davante Adams
WR: TY Hilton
WR: DJ Moore
TE: George Kittle
Flex: Christian Kirk
Kicker: Lutz
DST: streaming Seattle D week 1 at home vs bengals.


Bench
Kyler Murray
Rashaad Penny
Derrius Guice
Ito Smith
Jamaal Williams
John Brown
Mohammad Sanu
Demarcus Robinson
Jimmy Graham
Texans D for week 2 at home vs jags



Thought I would end up with Julio picking 8th, but guy picking 4th surprisingly chose Chubb, which caused Adams to drop to 8. I'm perfectly comfortable taking the most consistent WR in fantasy as my first round ppr pick. Felt like a steal with the 5th pick of round 2 to get Bell. He has been going first round in most drafts i've seen. He's a talented, Bell cow back, in what should be an improved offensive line and offense. Plus he will play a large factor in the passing game with a young qb. I opted for for Elite tight end Kittle in round 3 after a couple of my other top targets there were gone. Only other player I considered there was Cooper but he has burned me several time in the past, has a below average QB, is wildly inconsistent, and already has foot issues. My least favorite pick was TY in fourth round. Was targeting Robert Woods, Galloday, or Lockett, but all three of them went one after the other before my pick. I don't hate the pick entirely, because I think the colts system now will result in better TY production than 2017 when Brisset was QB. But I would have been happier with any of the other 3 guys. Russell Wilson was a steal in round 11 but expect Murray to overtake him as my starter. My bench is loaded with high upside RBs if injury or circumstances break their way. Guice, Penny, Ito, and Jamaal Williams all have RB1 potential if the cards fall right. I only need one to pop to make that strategy worthwhile. And until then Ekeler will be solid rb2 until gordon returns (if that happens)

My draft is tomorrow. I'm hoping to get the 4th spot. Want to try and swing something like Zeke/Kelce/Mahomes/Carson.

Don't see Kelce coming back to you in round 2. Maybe in a 10 team league but otherwise, not too likely

Ended up picking 2nd and Jstack was right. Kelce went the end of round 1. Here's what I ended up with. Really need to hit on 1 WR. Ballage will get dropped for either Dal def or maybe the Jets def. Almost pulled the trigger on Deshaun Watson for trade bait. He fell to the 6th and I had him as my highest rated player for 4 rounds.


QB - Patrick Mahomes
RB - Christian McCaffrey, Todd Gurley, Derrick Henry, Duke Johnson, Peyton Barber, Kalen Ballage
WR - Tyler Lockett, Robbie Anderson, AJ Green, Sammy Watkins, Corey Davis, Marquez Vales-Scantling, Courtland Sutton
TE - Evan Engram
K - na
Def - na
