Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[mrMet]

Yeah. Our commish (which is me in one of my dynasty leagues) has to manage draft pick trades and keep the draft board updated. I would like to migrate to Sleeper, but don’t want to deal with the bellyaching from the league.

I pretty much got 4-5 people on board and then ruled as a dictator to make the switch lol

I traded Zay Flowers and 1.05 for Mccaffery last night right before the draft. PPR league of course

LOL. That’s a steal. When is your rookie draft? Let us know who they grab at 1.05.

We had it last night. He needs some youth on his team. He took Nabers 1.02 and then Xavier worthy at 1.05

not sure how valid this is but apparently the staff is keeping tabs on a RB out of SC that committed to Georgia St. recently. Seeing how his year goes. Maybe a Daune Morris backup option?

Ok coffee preferences for everyone?

I like black (Americano for my snobs) medium blend. Starbucks is too bitter.

Josh Pate is “every team is improving, every coach is building up their program” good for business/ his likability etc. but somebody has to be a loser. I guess it’s better than the purposeful trolling for clicks that some try

Agreed. As you said despite the pandering I still like his style more than the “hot take for controversy” types. I just don’t get too excited about his takes now that we’ve seen the pattern.

IDK I haven’t seen him pumping up teams like Florida or SC but sure he is def. positive about teams with positive outlooks. He likes to rely on analytics too much so he’s unlikely to have a really surprising take but he’s solid.

I’m sure coaches have their reasons but I wonder why we are so deadset on taking another RB especially with the portal after this season? We have Sampson, Seldon, Bishop, Lewis, Keith + Baker coming in. I guess they see a couple leaving. Need to land a big time RB next class for sure.

I can get on board with this. I prefer leaner cuts, so ribeye would be my last choice.

Same, I know people always rave about ribeye "melting in your mouth" but I just don't like chewing on fat I guess.

Top Sirloin done right is hard to beat for me but overcooked it'll be tougher for sure.

Don't be mad

Sampson probably gone after this season. None of those other guys have proven they can carry the load. All of them have been injured at a physically demanding position that often has injuries. I think it’d be crazy not to take 2 RBs.

A good ribeye is about as good a steak as you'll get. A bad ribeye is about as bad a steak as you'll get. There are a lot of meh ones.

The problem of a ribeye is once you have the good one, nothing else compares. I got one at Ye Olde 20ish years ago that ruined me.
