NFL Fantasy Dynasty League (S9)

[Apollo]

Congrats Axel . An actual legit championship in a tough COVID season. Well done!

I think the bigger story here is how I've claimed yet another Consolation Round title. *pats self on back a la Barry Horowitz*

A mighty difficult season for sure. Congrats on the money in the bank. You'll no doubt get another stud this coming draft unless Yahoo's auto-drafter gets you. lol

Auto-draft dud somehow leads to Championships, so maybe Mack should roll the die!

[Axel]

A crazy season that started with the dreaded Yahoo auto-draft selection of Vita Vea #1 overall, finally ended where I wanted. Happy to secure the win (Thanks largely to Karmara) over Apollo. Good season by all. Enjoy the off-season.

[Demographic Shift]

Yep...good final.
Two best constructed teams and one guy had “the” day.
Congratulations to Axel Billy Bishop.

The offseason begins today.

I was on auto-draft this season as well... I did win a chip of sorts

[Axel]

Also lost in the shuffle, Stefon Diggs was a monster on Monday night, ensuring that I had top score for the week. A guy that I debated dropping while in Minnesota last year got new life in Buffalo and finishes our season as the 3rd ranked WR in the league behind Adams and Hill.

[Apollo]

My team was so ravaged by injuries but it probably didn't matter because Kamara & Diggs almost put up 100 points by themselves. I wonder what Barkley looks like next year? He'll be a big addition to a championship squad.


Looking at my team for next year, I'm pretty optimistic I'll have my best team yet. I blew my top picks on Hopklins and Julio so I think I'm likely to pass on the draft altogether. My tentative keepers heading into the off-season:

QB
Justin Herbert
Russell Wilson

WR
DeAndre Hopkins
Julio Jones
Keenan Allen
Odell Beckham
Will Fuller
Courtland Sutton
CeeDee Lamb
Henry Ruggs
Michael Pittman Jr.

RB
Dalvin Cook
D'Andre Swift
Antonio Gibson
James Robinson
Cam Akers
AJ Dillon
Phillip Lindsay

TE
Travis Kelce
Mike Gesicki

K
Younghoe Koo

DB
Jeremy Chinn
Antoine Winfield Jr.
Kamren Curl

DL
Joey Bosa
Cameron Jordan
Romeo Okwara

LB
Darius Leonard
Bobby Wagner
Blake Martinez

On the bubble:
Gabriel Davis
Jamaal Williams
Cole Kmet

Cut:
TY Hilton
Kerry Hyder

[Axel]

I'm reasonably confident that my keepers will be:

QB
Lamar Jackson
Deshaun Watson

RB
Alvin Kamara
Saquan Barkley
Joe Mixon
Raheem Mostert

WR
Calvin Ridley
Stefon Diggs
AJ Brown
Cooper Kupp
Marquise Brown
Tyler Boyd

TE
Mark Andrews
Logan Thomas

K
Harrison Butker

DB
Minkah Fitzpatrick
Kevin Byard
Jessie Bates

DL
Montez Sweat
JJ Watt

LB
Patrick Queen
Alex Singleton
Lavonte David
AJ Klein


Bubble 1of these will be kept:
DL Yannick Ngakoue
WR Russell Gage
LB Chandler Jones

[Mack North]

Looking forward to a top 3 pick, should net me some great talent in each round.

Pretty sure my D is set, but I need a lot of help on O. Can't wait for August!

[Apollo]

I would not be surprised if Trevor Lawrence goes somewhere in the top three of our fantasy draft. The last player with THIS much draft hype might be Andrew Luck.

Vita Veta is available !

I also think that I coulda caught drizz for 3rd if Buffalo didn't bench Josh Allen in the 4th Q last night.

Good season..
Congrats to the S9 champ @Axel

Apollo is now getting additional cloud resources to crunch next years algorithms that will put him over the top.

King Ballswin will now be Duke Ballswin as a result of this years finish. Don't bet against the Duke next year as he launches a comeback for the iron throne.

bertarapsfan is watching every NCAA game to find those gems that will make the draft picks he sourced even more valuable.

Mack North won the consolation final and will pin up his purple participant ribbon in his home office desk as a reminder to show up at the draft to scoop VIta Veta from under Axels nose.

Will the ever silent MangoKid use all his available cap space and draft picks to do the talking for him next season ?

The offseason for me centres around the hunt for the next Alvin Kamara.


Merry Christmas and Seasons Greetings to all and get ready for a Covid Free season 10 !

[James Ballswin (Realizar)]

Congratulations Axel, you're the new KING of the league! Big-up!

[Mack North]

Funny thing is, Vita Vea was on the champs roster up until Christmas Day! Does he still get a ring, Axel ?

[Axel]

Funny thing is, Vita Vea was on the champs roster up until Christmas Day! Does he still get a ring, Axel ?

I had only picked him up on Dec 16th as a ceremonial waiver wire (he was already on the IR at that point), so 9 days on the roster (maybe a few more depending on how quickly the first waiver wire was after the draft), he definitely doesn't get a ring. I'll send him a nice hat or something though.
