I switched them out. At first I seen Booker was gonna start. Now it's Freeman. thx too

On the NFL network, they said that Freeman is starting based on his preseason performance. But, I think he has a more favorable matchup over Lynch. But...

If you leave Lynch in, then I wouldn't fault you. Part of Fantasy Football is to use strategy. So, if you have a strong enough line up to where you could afford to play Lynch, then go for it being that he plays on MNF and you may be able to sneak in a win, should you and your opponent be close by the end of Sunday.

I like having one or two players left on Mondays...

Good luck to ya!

How high should you draft a TE?

And is it important to keep drafting different positions every pick or can you draft the same position two or three times in a row if the values there?

Your squad isn't too bad. Who was your first pick? How many people are in your league? My guess is that you picked Conner first followed by D. Williams, then Ertz..

Also, why do you have 3 QBs? Can you play a QB at the flex position or are you in a 2 QB league?

Also, I see that you hold a philosophy that DEF & K's doesn't matter much.

To a degree, I could rock with it, but one drafts those positions for consistency, plus some kickers score higher than key positional players, especially on teams thst don't score many touchdowns.

Oh yeah, I hope your WRs can stay healthy. They all tend to be on the gimpy side of the game..

It depends on what type of league you are in. I am about to draft in a big $$ league tomorrow morning where every position counts! In addition to winning a pot(1st placer thru 3rd place), we will have weekly contests where each week, whoever scores the highest points per position and other categories, you can will $100. That contest runs for 12 weeks, in this particular league.

But, In a regular standard league, I say that if you can get a TE1, then draft one because they aren't many of them..

My draft philosophy is to draft players who I think will consistently score the most points throughout the season, followed by which players have the best match ups per week.

To simplify, draft the best available player and try not to draft too many players with the same bye weeks.

Drafting #1 in a 10 player snake draft.

Going w/ barkley at 1, then hoping for Cook with my 2nd pick.

Thinking of going RB, RB, TE, WR, BPA, QB, RB/BPA

If Marlon Mack is available with my 3rd pick, I might grab him. 3 RB's straight is risky, but Id have 3 quality backs, plus trade bait and injury protection.

This my 1st draft ever, so my strategy might be fukked...lol

For a 12 man league, your squad isn't bad! Of I were you, I would keep an eye on the waiver wire. Waiver wire wins league championships!

Big $$$ League roster:

Starting:

M. Trubisky
M. Thomas
A. Cooper
D. Johnson
D. Henry
O. Howard
P. Lindsay
J. Tucker
Baltimore

Bench:

T. Brady
D. Moore
J. Howard
D. Walker
N. Hines

Only 5 bench players in this league to prevent hoarding players. I was the 7th pick out of 10. I think that I drafted well. Not a fan of handcuffing Kickers with Defense, but the weekly contests made this an exception.

I actually think most people don’t value the tight end enough especially if you can get an elite guy like kelce or ertz. I don’t think you should use a 1st but depending on who’s on the board I don’t think it’s crazy to pick kelce in the 2nd round. I’ve had kelce back to back years and went to the championship both years (1-1) and kelce was one of my most consistent players. Could basically pencil him in for 16+ points every week.
