TIPS/TRICKS - Getting into a dynasty start up league - PPR - Superflex, TE premium 1.5ppr.... any help or suggestions on how to prep for such a draft? First time in a dynasty/superflex/te prem league so its a whole new world.

And totally agree with @Timultuous . RB is by far the least important position. You can solve that almost any year in a rookie draft, or can acquire great old vets for very cheap. They’re extremely replaceable outside the unicorns like CMC. QB and WR (young and elite) is the key to sustained success

@DontTakeTheRUFies also very important to not use trade calculators as a bible. KeepTradeCut and some other sites are fantastic resources despite the amount of people that shit on them. They’re a great guide, but not end all be all by any means whatsoever. Use trade calcs and rankings like that to just get a rough idea of consensus values and rankings and fine tune your own rankings yourself

My point is, things can fall apart quickly. Something weird happens to your team and those two firsts can turn into a 1.05 and 1.01

I won last year, and it’s true I could slide alittle from year to year but I always prefer to be competing than playing it safe.

HotRopeAllstars 1 year ago

You don’t fall from 1.12 to 1.01 or 1.05 if your active and trading alot

HotRopeAllstars 1 year ago

The guys getting the 1.01 are trying to get the 1.01

Agree with most that’s been said. Cept I will say that RB is the position you can gain the most from in a single season setting. At least at the top end, if you deemphasize the position, it’s correct, they can be patched in at RB2 and below. The reason people deemphasize them is because in dynasty you have to account for injurability and longevity, and RBs are both the most injury prone and have the shortest shelf life on the average. Just know that the top RBs will bring the most bang for your buck of any position. As for draft picks, I think I sorta agree with jimmi, mainly in that I don’t throw away my firsts willy-nilly. Specifically your own first, you have the most control over. I’ll move them for the right deal, but owning your own pick allows you to better reap benefits if you need to pivot midseason into rebuild mode

It’s because injuries happen

Dude got decimated

It happens. And he had traded his future picks to keep competing and now looks like he’s in for a tough rebuild

Just Win Baby

Man got lucky one year and knows the secret to winning all of the sudden lol

HotRopeAllstars 1 year ago

@jimmikmik your funny lol. I won a redraft league 2 years ago with a regular season record of 5-9…. Can you believe my team was that good. Playing against the median…. I don’t get lucky. I watch guys like you all season saying next year is my year lol

jimmikmik 1 year ago

We can all pretend we’re fantasy gods, but end of the day, a lot comes down to luck plain and simple

jimmikmik 1 year ago

You can set yourself up to have better odds, but end of the day…it’s luck lol. Fooling yourself if you think differently

A440 1 year ago

Pick trading really comes down to objective projections and being good at it. Everyone always thinks they’re going to win, but I can’t stress enough that the ability to know objectively whether you’re realistically contending this year is probably the most important piece of information you can have. Knowing that you don’t have a real chance outside of luck allows you to take full advantage of value swings of the various assets, which goes hand in hand with owning your own pick. Because of this, I’ll almost NEVER trade my own personal picks in the distant future. I’ll trade mine for next year to compete now or grab a key player I want for rebuilding, but I’m rarely trading my distant picks

@jimmikmik guys like you assume everything and probably don’t turn out well in life. I’m not assuming anything. Just sharing what has worked for me. Being an aggressive trader. Playing to win.

Obviously if your team sucks don’t trade your pick

jimmikmik 1 year ago

Man what a douche lmao

A440 1 year ago

I’d also say that, personally, I’m never a middling team. I’m either a favorite to contend, or I’m rebuilding. If I’m not sure, that means I’m rebuilding. It’s just way too valuable to know when you’re rebuilding to pass it up. The other thing I do, and when done with the above, creates an almost unstoppable strategy. I will move off of star players about a year too soon. It maximizes their value to me, and allows me to continually get younger and stronger. There are exceptions, I will ride a player into the ground, but I’m never doing that with more than one or two in my starting lineup (good examples are CMC and Hill). This approach of the above two things (along with key objective projecting) allows me to almost always be a favorite to win, and when I’m not, the turnaround almost never takes more than a year.

Dynasty Trade Should I deal CMC or Chase Brown for Aj Brown?

Thoughts on Gunnar Helm? Heard some good things about him coming out of TE university. “He is like a Robert Tonyan. Smooth route runner and a big target with great hands.” “I know it’s super early, but I see the same traits in (Helm) that I see in Zach Ertz. His routes are smooth and he runs them with ease.” Okonkwo could be traded (final year of his contract). Only other TE is Josh Whyle. Feels like Helm could quickly ascend to TE1. 🔥 if your adding Helm in dynasty 💩 if you’re not
