Fantasy 2024 - Alpha League - Discussion

[Exe Gesis]

Not much to do for organizing a new season. So easy compared to Empire.

Trading is of course open.

Draft start will be JULY 1

Roster deadline is JUNE 30 to get your roster down to 26 players who are all selected as your 26 keepers.

Currently, your roster page (at the very bottom of mobile browser, or very left on PC browser) will look like this.

The position maximums are double of what they really are. So you can carry excess players at positions for now,, and even prior to draft, even keepers selected, and even after draft....but eventually you will only be allowed to carry the half of what the maximum is displayed.when season starts.

But you must get your roster down to 26 pre-draft and make sure to personally select your 26 keepers.

Have not watched the Colts. Is he scrambling? Or is it he just cannot throw?

a little, but not really

Richo is 2 or 3 years younger than Jayden Daniels despite being drafted a year before him however . Second youngest QB in the league I'm pretty sure, so growing pains were probably predictable.

 

[00Stinger]

And when I say he cant hit layups I mean he air balls them completely, not even close.

airballs them over the receivers heads straight into defenders hands

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

My theory is that he has to set his feet properly for deep throws and that's why he's so good at them, meanwhile his footwork is lazy on the shorter ones, just relies on his arm to get it done, and that's why he's a scattergun on layups.

There is time to get it corrected, needs more game reps coz he played **** all in college, and I reckon Steichen is a bloody good coach who can get it straightened out. Just might be a bumpy ride the next year or so. Bit like Josh Allen was early.

Yeah started less than 15 games in college

So growing pains are inevitable I guess

What a week to pick Carr to start ahead of Daniels!! And lost by 15 pts …oh baby!

Death by opposing teams kicker going bananas for the second time this year. Nick Folk wont have and never will score 26.2 points again

Luckily in leagues I don't care about winning or losing this year. Rashee Rice's injury basically ****ed me in all the cash leagues I care about winning in this weekend though. So yes #FantasyRage

I guess this is also a good lesson for me (and in general) not to have the same roster across multiple fantasy leagues. Note to Self moment for me too. Either injury to one or more key players, or believing too much in the sane bunch of players (if they underperform)

Just ran in to the Injury Cursed Juggernaut this week. Dont be hard on yourself.

I was watching the game and took me a few quarters to realise I have Folk in Alpha.

From winless and not looking like a win to a massive 217.95 and counting score line

Tanking fail.

Glad I got you last week rather than this week haha

 

[00Stinger]

Not really tanking when your team has been absolute shit for the whole time I have had it

Although having no QB's for almost all of last year didn't help

 

[00Stinger]

Glad I got you last week rather than this week haha

still would have done that deal this week

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Any title chasers want Kelce for a second?

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Diggs for a second with Nico on IR?

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I asked for a second for Kelce not a third TheGreatBarryB . Think a second is reasonable considering Rice is out for the season and likely suspended to start next year.

Next year is a long way away for Kelce. More likely retired or comes back even more out of shape or splits with Swift and is miserable. I’m offering a third for a guy who’s probably only good for 8-10 games

He signed a two year extension when everyone said he'd retire last year. Ill give you a 4th back for a 2nd. Otherwise can just die on my roster.

 

[manureid]

Kelce is definitely a win now guy.

 

[manureid]

Perfect team to buy Kelce.

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

I did say "any title chasers" in my OP.
