Before I make my cuts, I am officially putting Mac Jones and Trey Lance on the trading block.

Mac Jones should put up good stats now that Bill O’brien is the offensive coordinator instead of random and bewildering non-offensive coaches.

Lance is a lottery ticket, that I predict will end up on another team and would have a decent floor with rushing stats.

Also, I have a surplus of startable TEs if anyone is looking to upgrade.

Ladies and gentlemen, your 2023 Peteys.

QB - Lamar Jackson, Brock Purdy, Mac Jones  
WR- Justin Jefferson, DK Metcalf, Cooper Kupp, Kyle Phillips, Josh Reynolds  
RB - Isiah Pacheco, Josh Jacobs, Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, Kenyan Drake  
TE - George Kittle, Austin Hooper, Zach Ertz  
K - Tyler Bass  
Def - Jacksonville, Minnesota, Arizona

Cuts - Noah Brown, Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Huntley, Deandre Carter, Taylor Heinicke, Nyheim Hines, Danny Gray, Caleb Huntley, Tim Patrick, Trey Lance

I made liberal use of IR slots, so this only nets me 5 draft picks.

The Great Old Ones cuts:  
Dontrell Hilliard  
Andy Dalton  
J.D. McKissic  
Darius Slayton  
James Robinson

Apparently had to clear out some of these G-men for Ellis. Nobody on IR so five picks.

I do not recall the process from last year - do we do the drops ourselves in this league or will TPTB make it so?

Also, I am adding theLV DEF to my cuts, giving me 5 draft picks.

Keepers:  
QBs Josh Allen, Geno Smith  
RBs Nick Chubb, Rhamondre Stevenson, JK Dobbins, David Montgomery, Isaiah Spiller  
WRs Deebo Samuel, Jahan Dotson, Rashod Bateman, Tyler Lockett, Donovan Peoples-Jones, Odell Beckham Jr, DJ Chark, Allen Robinson, Rashid Shaheed  
TE Kyle Pitts  
K Matt Gay  
DST Dallas, Denver, LA Chargers

Cuts:  
QB Ryan Tannehill, Mike White  
RB Darrel Williams, Deon Jackson  
WRs Isaiah McKenzie, Marvin Jones Jr., Olamide Zaccheaus, Marquise Goodwin  
TE Dawson Knox  
K Eddie Piniero

21 players, 4 draft picks.

I struggled over cutting some of those bottom tier receivers, particularly Chark or Robinson, but I’d pick up a 5th round pick by doing so and I figure giving them a chance to finally get their shit together is probably worth more than whoever I’d pick up in the 5th. My roster is pretty unbalanced with little depth at any position except WR and DST.

I’ll keep playing in the league indefinitely but my interest in football and fantasy football is pretty near zero. I haven’t watched the draft, kept up with any news, watched any preseason games, or anything like that. It’s been waning for years. I guess that just happens, sometimes you’re really into something for a while and then that interest fades. Doesn’t help that the Browns went villain last year but it was already on the way out before that.That can’t bode well for the quality of my team ownership going forward but I’ll still manage my teams, occasionally check the news, etc.

TE: David Njoku, Noah Fant, Evan Engram, Mike Gesicki

Cuts: Eno Benjamin, Jordan Mason, Jeff Driskel. Tutu Atwell, Chris Moore

By my count, this gives me four picks. I’m willing to trade Haskins for a song.

I’ll be adding Tyler Boyd to my cut list. That should give me 3 picks.
