I would be surprised if he had a top 12 season going forward. If he did, he would be the first RB to do so, as far as I know.

I have joined the budding star running back with destroyed knees club.

I was feeling pretty good about this year, too. Fuck me.

If anyone wants another fantasy league this year, we’re 2 slots short in the [HHM league.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/he-hate-me-keeper-league-2021-year-19/948348/)

Andy Dalton lives to play the bye week another year and I still have three picks.

CUTS

Johnson

That leaves me three picks.

Surveying the damage, Jesus Christ.  
So apparently Deshaun Watson has joined the sex pervert club, leaving me Jared Goff and nobody.  
I haven’t sniffed a passable RB in years in this league and I’m in the unenviable position of starting Gio Bernard on a weekly basis. And I’m inexplicably drafting SEVENTH after another shitty season. So don’t much like my chances for this year looking up.

I haven’t quite committed to the idea of a rebuild and firesale but I do see a few gems on this roster so I’ll listen to offers.

We’re close to @Really_Not_All_That_Bright going on the clock! I guess he can pick now, if he wants. We have a ways to go before Omni would be up, and I doubt Omni cuts anyone who would be picked before his pick.

The pre-draft rosters are set, aside from Omni since he hasn’t posted cuts yet. I guessed on his likely picks just to use as a placeholder, but we can easily adjust it once the cuts are in. This gives us an updated draft results tracker, [which you can find here](https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/130426/draftresults?drafttab=round)

I also updated the schedule using the [rules I originally posted here.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-fantasy-football-dynasty-league-year-ten/819742/230)

Just a heads up, you don’t have the traded picks added to the draft results page yet. Here’s how it should look…

1.10 - Nine Inch Neils  
1.12 - Warner’s Brothers  
2.12 - Warner’s Brothers  
3.1 - JB’s Gusterrhoids  
3.11 - HungryHungryHaruspex  
4.11 - HungryHungryHaruspex

The Lions dropped Breshad Perriman this morning, so let me get a last-minute CUT in for one more pick.

Thanks for reminding me. I had left that out because we discovered in previous years that Yahoo’s system is very strange when it comes to updating draft results for trades. But, my memory was a little faulty and that was for a different problem; and, I figured out the workaround for it, anyway (I think). So the Draft Results page is now updated to reflect the info you provided, and the trade I announced to test the workaround. Thanks for the double check!

For reference for our new member and any of us who get forgetful, since draft lists are typically posted by abbreviation:

| Abbrev | Board | Team |
| --- | --- | --- |

| Retro | RetroVertigo | No Use For A Name |

| Omni | Omniscient | Ides of Martz |
| dale | dalej42 | Warner’s Brothers |
| Justin | Justin\_Bailey | JB’s Gusterrhoids |

I tried tagging all the names thinking maybe it could be useful for sending PMs, but discourse refused, saying “You may only mention 10 users in a post.” Gee, thanks for the nannying, discourse.

And we’re off! I totally forgot I had an extra first-rounder; bonus! I’m willing to trade the 1.10 pick for a top starting TE, though; right now, my TE depth chart is Tyler Higbee and two guys who many not start this year.

We shouldn’t have to send PMs with the new software. Using an at symbol and then the user name should send them a notification that they were mentioned, so just add that to the end of their post.

This is, probably by far, the highest a TE has ever gone in our league, but I am going to take the Calvin Johnson looking mofo with the wingspan of a condor who is probably the best TE prospect ever.

1.02 Kyle Pitts, TE, Atlanta

@Retrovertigo is up.

Did you type that, and if so, did it work? Here’s a quick test, I’ll @ you by typing with wrong case, see if you get a notification:

@Senorbeef

I’m pretty sure you have to hit the @ symbol, type a few letters, then click the dropdown entry to select a name for it to work properly. I don’t think you can type it. But this test should answer that question.

Not the commish, but it seems to me that completing a trade that makes a rostered player superfluous isn’t a great reason to allow late cuts after the draft starts.
