Also I've always loved Bob Ley. Dude is a legend. I normally don't even like the OTL stories but will still watch them just because of him.

I'm on my 2nd best ball fantasy draft for this year and it's crazy how high people are on Sterling Shepard. He's gone in the 7th round in both drafts, higher than any rookie. C.J. Prosise has also been drafted very high, which makes me nervous until we know for sure that Lynch isn't coming back.
The injuries haven't seemingly affected the value of Julian Edelman, Sammy Watkins, but have really impacted Tyler Eifert and Melvin Gordon. Eifert is still on the board in the current draft and we're almost in RD8 and Gordon has fallen outside of the top 30 RB's.

Where has Elliott been going then? I haven't done any drafts but I assuming he is being picked in rounds 1-3. I can see how Edelman and Watkins values haven't changed much they aren't expected to miss any games are they? I know Eifert is and Gordon after last year and the injury I wouldn't draft him high either.

Zeke is going top 10. My first draft, I picked 12th, got Gronk and Peterson. Zeke went 9th.

MFL10 draft. $10, 12 teams, draft only leagues, 8 hour clock per pick.
QB, 3 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 1 FLEX, 1 DEF. 20 players, best ball format. Meaning, you don't set a lineup, you get your optimal lineup each week. No roster moves, no trades, draft only.
It's a good way to really get a gauge on how drafts will play out later on.
My plan is to do those all summer and look for trends, which is why I commented on Shepard and Prosise. It's ridiculous how high they are going. Zeke too, but people are buying the Cowboys system and remembering Murray's production from 2014.

What happens when dudes start tearing ACL's and getting domestic abuse charges and suspended by Sep.11? All my drafts I've ever done are always after game 3 or 4 of pre-season.

It's just a different type of league. 20 players, no moves, it's draft and play. $10 entry, winner take all. So there's definitely some luck, but given that you get your optimal scoring each week, you expect some attrition as the year goes on.

Apparently Aqib Talib was shot at a Dallas area club last night.
Stupid, fat bengals showing up to OTA's overweight.

Burfict who has had weight issues in the past but usually loses it. But with a history of knee surgery does he really need the extra weight. Also, Maualuga who's about as quick on the field as I am. He apparently had a history of it as well but this year seems to be worse.

At the same time, it's also June. A freak athlete can shed weight very quickly and will shed even more in-camp. If it was a skill position, I'd be worried. These guys, not.

I wouldn't worry about it much. If they work hard they'll be good to go by the season.
Was hoping A.J. Green was about 275 and Eifert about 345.

I'd be interested.
Yahoo or ESPN? Budgeted waiver wire?

I like Yahoo best. We can decide on the format. 14 teams would be best, but 12 or 10 is fine too.

Yeah same.
I did ESPN last year with $100 budget waiver wire. First time with that format for waivers. I was really stupid with it at first, but figured it out eventually.

True, but they also tend to put on weight during the season, especially when it gets cold.

I would be interested depending on format and if the draft is no earlier than post week 3 of the preseason.
