Chiefs D has been great but gonna come under proper test next few weeks

    I've never played the Fantasy with the flex so not really sure what positions get more points. ie: Def > RB?
    Agree with this for the most part.
    If the Chiefs were not facing the tough 4 weeks coming and you didn't have an issue at RB then I would be more open to the trade.
    However, it appears you need to hold Ivory for the flex position or RB cover at least.
    Also, with respect to defences even though the Chiefs are #1 D by a mile, weekly numbers can fluctuate wildly.

    I just fall on the side of no trade...

      Thanks for the advice.

      At the moment my RB's are Frank Gore, Chris Ivory, Stephen Ridley and I just picked up Darrel Young on Waivers to cover Bye week issues. Bare in mind it is a 12 man league.

        After Week 10 - Booms & Busts!!!

        Running at 5-5 with the playoffs looking a tough ask.



        QB
        Tony Romo Stuck with him, can be huge or useless, ok for a late round pick - MEH!
        Carson Palmer Dropped ages ago, rubbish - BUST!
        Decided on Romo a long while back so happy to get him so late.
        Also ok with Palmer, the Arizona offence should be way better this year.

        RB
        Doug Martin Total bust, didn't expect a repeat of rookie year but 0 TDs and finished for the year - BUST!
        Frank Gore Brilliant, has evolved into my RB1 - BOOM!
        DeAngelo Williams Was ok as a backup, replaced now - BUST!
        LeVeon Bell Brilliant, has evolved into my RB2 - BOOM!
        Happy with Martin and Gore as starters, Williams is a good backup and if Bell recovers from injury then there are points to be had.

        WR
        Dez Bryant Stuck with him, can be huge or useless - MEH!
        Danny Amendola Too injury prone but hopefully will have a good run in - BUST!
        Jordy Nelson Was a super WR2 until Rodgers got injured, still ok - BOOM!
        Emmanuel Sanders Gone - BUST!
        DeAndre Hopkins Gone - BUST!
        Very happy with the starting 3, the backups are ok, just.

        TE
        Jermichael Finley Injured, gone - BUST!
        Martellus Bennett Was a super TE until Cutler got injured, still ok - BOOM!
        Happy with Finley at the round I got him at, with a nice backup.

        K
        Randy Bullock BUST!
        I know little about kickers but have heard good things about this guy and what a name!

        DEF
        Arizona Cardinals BOOM!
        Happy but who knows.


        There are a few good team rosters in play, looking forward to it!!!
        Suck it up!!!

          Looking for some more trade advice lads.

          Chris Ivory for Philip Rivers and Hakeem Nicks?

          My current QB options are Eli Manning or Pryor and my WR options are Cruz & AJ Green (on bye this week) , Subs are Emmanuel Sanders (currently injured) and Chris Givens

          Chris Ivory has been my Flex option and without him my only backup RB is Darrel Young - thoughts?

              I think I'll have a bye after this week's victory.

                Well done to all in the play-offs.
                Going to have to take a good long hard look at my drafting system for next year.
                Also, the amount of times I benched a guy because of bad match ups and he had a stromer was unnatural!!!

                Anyway, on to the consolation prize...

                Comment


                  I've picked up a few nice additions through the waiver wire but it makes picking a team a bit of a nightmare. Eg at RB now I have Andre Brown, Morris, Vereen, Woodhead & Tate. Time to close my eyes and pick any two...

                    So sick getting dumped out in the first round of the playoffs. Worst week of the year obv and i was cruising the previous 6 weeks. Had the highest scoring team in the regular season. I'm like a young Peyton Manning

                                    Congrats to our IPB Fantasy NFL double world champ! Fonkey beat Lurker23 to claim the title.

                                    Fonkey gets €180 for winning and Lurker gets €60 for finishing runner-up.

                                    I thought the standard was a lot higher in the league this year. Hopefully we'll see all the same faces back here in August for another run at the world title!

                                        Willing to donate to this again if it runs. Think it's that time of year if someone wants to step up and run it...

                                                                Right will look at setting it up later in the week, keep it at €20 a man should be fine. Just to note that has to be even numbers in the league and its capped at 20 players but prob best to only have 14ish I think for draft purposes.... thoughts?

                                                                            Well that I do agree with because he ran it. No big deal either way, as you said, whatever majority rules is fine.

                                                                            Comment


                                                                              What's the timeline needed to do the draft etc? And what are the optimal numbers? If there were 16 or so interested would it make more sense to run 2?

                                                                              Comment


                                                                                Think 16 would be best as that would give 4 groups of 4 teams. 12 teams will mean a less balanced league imo.

                                                                                Comment


                                                                                  12 works just means the top two in each division go straight to semis in playoffs.

                                                                                  Easy either way though.

                                                                                  What site are we using? I used fleaflicker last year and it was good although I havent used any other sites so can't comment. Again, Im easy on that. Fleaflickers email draft system is handy.

He prefers bank transfer or paypal, details are prob in Prem FF thread or in your inboxes somewhere. €20 should suffice

                                                                                              I think it should be run the same way as last year. It's been run like that for years. Anymore than 12/14 teams and you end up sacrificing draft depth.

                                                                                              If we get enough interest I'll happily enter a second league too.

                                                                                              Extremely excited for hard knocks!!!

Just to note that has to be even numbers in the league and its capped at 20 players but prob best to only have 14ish I think for draft purposes.... thoughts?

                                                                                                  People with the early interest, 14 there so far.

Each player gets 100 waiver points to bid on players on the waiver wire. If ya spunk your points too early you lose out etc, adds a bit more to the waivers if people were up for it. I do it in my other league and everyone prefers it.

Its got all the history of winners since we began and I think it would be nice to continue with that. So pm me and I'll give you control of it.

Each player gets 100 waiver points to bid on players on the waiver wire. If ya spunk your points too early you lose out etc, adds a bit more to the waivers if people were up for it. I do it in my other league and everyone prefers it.
