One of the annual threads and something thats become a popular tradition at the RX is back

Doing my usual for this season

Rotowire championship leage and a $500 satellite league on nffc


Rotowire draft tonight. $500 league on Wednesday. Will update accordingly.


Good luck to everybody this year and lets have some good discussion. All things fantasy football allowed in the thread. No trolling or politics will be acknowledged

Good luck, man, and all the other fantasy guys.

Gonna be a weird year. Still waiting to hear how the NFL is gonna announce and deal with Covid positives.

Picking 8th tonight. Not great as it was my 9th best preference out of 12


Will probably end up with adams or cook. Would be happy with adams. Really not a huge cook fan this year but that may be my best bet. At least i will get a little benefit of third round reversal. Would be thrilled if clyde edwards-helaire fell to 8

Because nobody goes to that forum and JC posts some relevant and helpful fantasy info here for everyone

Thanks stack. Hows your squad this year


I really like some of your falcons. Ryan, Ridley, and hurst. This is the first time i would be leary taking Julio in the first round.

I proposed the R3R in my league. We'll see what happens, I can take it or leave it.

Ultimately it is relatively zero sum before you are given your pick but I'd rather have a better chance if I get picks 8-12 than a worse chance if I get picks 1-4ish since I think I'll be fine 1-4ish anyway.

How does everyone feel about hopkins? Keep running into a hopkins vs kelce vs golladay vs godwin situation in round 2

You know they're gonna be throwing to him. But he's not in the cheesy AFC south anymore. The NFC West has teams who can play in the backfield. Always a risk when a guy changes teams.

But he is a great receiver. I think he continues to be a top 5 receiver.

I'd lock up Kelce/Kittle and find WR's later in rd 2 (unless like Tyreke or Julio falls then that's a tough 1)....Once you get that top TE, you got it for the year. Can't find someone week 8 on waivers at TE (usually) to give you elite value like you can at RB or WR. And WR is loaded this year.

Hopkins is a mega talent but the list of top tier WR's switching teams is not good (and as of this moment I'd say it is a QB downgrade), the God situation seems a lot worse with no Winston and Brady will use the TE's.

Kelce/Kittle in rd 2 then like Thielen or Cooper rd 3.

Or Kupp/AJ Brown/Ridley rd 4

What worries me is new team combined with tons of mouths to feed. But their defense is awful so would expect tons of shootouts

Another reason i dont see how Kyler doesnt explode this year. I never end up with him in mocks because of his round 5 or 6 price tag

My fantasy steal/breakout of the year is Daniel Jones. Im targeting him as a 12ish round backup or even starter if i miss out on earlier qbs


He is a gunslinger, can run some, has TONS of weapons, sophomore campaign, and a garbage defense. Wouldn't be surprised if he ends up as a top 5 QB

You got Fitz who is ancient but still gets work, Kirk is an emerging player, Drake catches passes. They ran the ball very well last year as well.

I dunno, maybe he is still the same ol Nuk but just seems risky vs stud TE's. Limited training camp to get on same page too.

Juju probably has a good year with Ben back and contract year but for a guy that had 500 yards last year, really isn't going at a discount. I figured people would be a bit more lukewarm. Ben is 38 which isn't old for a QB these days but he's obv a bigger ? mark than most.

Given Carolina D will be god awful, division has some really good offenses and Moore has massive QB upgrade. I like him more.

Ben could go down again, D Johnson/Washington are good young players for pitt as well, their D is elite, added Ebron. Juju also is in a contract year and Pitt never really has paid WR's so them favoring those other guys as the year went on wouldn't shock me. D Johnson seems really legit too, good sleeper.

Moore just seems like more factors in his favor.

Just a little worrisome they brought on robby Anderson. Curtis samuel is still there and McCaffrey is a wr

How high is the Joe mixon holdout risk? If he falls to me with the 5th pick of round 2 its tough to not jump on that

Same with drake in that spot with his "precautionary" walking book

Cant stand the way cardinals coach is with injuries. Might be the worst in the league on proving info.
