By the way, I’m in the market for a WR, anywhere from WR1 to WR3. I have the 5th, 12th, and 16th picks available to trade, plus of course take a look at my roster (post #76) and maybe you’ll find a good fit. ---

I’m not sure you have enough TEs there, could be a problem for you down the line… ---

In a normal league I would agree, but we start both a TE and W/T so all my TEs are basically in matchup rotation with Hurns and Wright for my WR3. I would definitely trade a TE if I got a decent offer though! ---

True, a team without a solid WR3 has some use for a second TE1. Although Hurns is a little more solid than I realized, 15th ranked WR last year … and of course you’ve got Brown and Beckham as your top two… Actually, yeah, screw you and your awesome WRs – that’s supposed to be my thing! ---

Here’s my info: Keeping: QB: Phillip Rivers Ryan Fitzpatrick RB: Jamaal Charles Adrian Peterson David Johnson Tim Hightower Mike Gillislee James Starks Charcandrick West Alfred Morris WR: Brandon Marshall Keenan Allen Amari Cooper Eric Decker Steve Smith Sr. Pierre Garcon TE: Juilus Thomas Gary Barnidge K Mason Crosby Justin Tucker DEF Lions Jags Eagles Cutting: Dontrelle Inman Vernon Davis Knile Davis Antonio Andrews I have a glut of high upside backup running backs, and not much depth at the QB and TE position, so I’m in the market. So make an offer on your backup today. I also think that leaves me with only one draft pick. I better make it a good one. ---

Is there anyone in the league that prefers to not be contacted via SDMB PM for things like trades and stuff? I think I remember that a couple owners don’t check the boards much. ---

Just finished setting my keepers on Yahoo, with less than an hour to spare. Phew! I cut the following: - Larry Donnell (TE-NYG) - Jonathan Grimes (RB-Hou) - De’Anthony Thomas (WR-KC) - Hakeem Nicks (WR-NO) - Both my kickers That’s six cuts, but I think Cruz was on IR so pretty sure this leaves me with five draft picks. ---

Been busy all day and didn’t get a chance to do research on my borderline prospects. I entered keepers but they’re provisional, I may submit changes tomorrow. ---

I entered the acquisition budgets and set up our schedule, same as in years past. For the benefit of our new guy, that schedule is: _Everyone will play their first three divisional games during the first half of the season, most within the first five weeks – everyone plays a divisional game in Week 1. In Weeks 8-11 there are no divisional games: everyone hits the road. Finally, the last three weeks are entirely intra-divisional. And, as before, the final week features matchups between the top two teams in each division from last year._ I’m still waiting on one list of cuts, but that should be coming within the next couple hours. Once I have it, I’ll approve the lists on Yahoo, and set up our draft/keepers, at which point you should be able to see who’s available on Yahoo’s “Players” page. You’ll still be able to your cuts until early tomorrow, just ask me to fix it manually. By the way, **Jules** , if you have any questions about rules/procedures as we go along, don’t hesitate to ask. ---

Yeah, I’ll post all the cuts. The commissioner gets a nice, organized list of all the cuts & keepers to edit/approve, but as far as I can tell no one else has access to anything like that. ---

No problem. And as always people can PM me a pick (or a preference list) along with a time frame in which to use it. ---

Here are all of our the cuts (so far). I’m including the number of draft picks everyone winds up with because every year there are a couple of people who forget the effect that IR slots can have (“I only have two draft picks? Ouch. Can I also cut…”) Also, is **Omni** ’s 10th Rounder the latest pick we’ve had? It’s close to it, certainly. **VarlosZ - 7 draft picks** Brian Hoyer (Chi - QB) Cole Beasley (Dal - WR) Seth Roberts (Oak - WR) Bryce Brown (Sea - RB) Will Tye (NYG - TE) Atlanta (Atl - DEF) Brian Hartline (Cle - WR) Mike Davis (SF - RB) **CuteWiddleBunny (Hamlet) - 2 draft picks** Antonio Andrews (Ten - RB) Knile Davis (KC - RB) Vernon Davis (Was - TE) Dontrelle Inman (SD - WR) **Exploding Pancakes (SenorBeef) - 4 draft picks** Brandon Bolden (NE - RB) Denard Robinson (Jax - RB) Kenny Britt (LA - WR) Robert Turbin (Ind - RB) Dexter McCluster (Ten - RB) **HungryHungryHaruspex (Jules Andre) - 8 draft picks** Richard Rodgers (GB - TE) Bishop Sankey (Ten - RB) Marqise Lee (Jax - WR) Rashad Greene (Jax - WR) AJ McCarron (Cin - QB) Case Keenum (LA - QB) Tennessee (Ten - DEF) Chicago (Chi - DEF) Colin Kaepernick (SF - QB)P Jace Amaro (NYJ - TE) **Ides of Martz (Omniscient) - 10 draft picks** Ronnie Hillman (Den - RB) Nate Washington (NE - WR) Danny Amendola (NE - WR) James Jones (SD - WR) Stevan Ridley (Det - RB) Cecil Shorts III (Hou - WR) Leonard Hankerson (Buf - WR) Scott Chandler (NE - TE) Kendall Gaskins (SF - RB) Dallas (Dal - DEF) Lance Dunbar (Dal - RB) **Isotopes (Petey) - 5 draft picks** Stevie Johnson (SD - WR) Chris Polk (Hou - RB) Pierre Thomas (Was - RB) Jordan Todman (Ind - RB) Daniel Herron (Buf - RB) **JB’s Gusterrhoid’s (Justin Bailey)- 3 draft picks** Anquan Boldin (Det - WR) Rueben Randle (Phi - WR) Eddie Royal (Chi - WR) Ahmad Bradshaw (Ind - RB) **New York Fanboys (Ellis Dee) - 4 draft picks** Hakeem Nicks (NO - WR) Larry Donnell (NYG - TE) De’Anthony Thomas (KC - WR) Jonathan Grimes (Hou - RB) Nick Novak (Hou - K) Josh Brown (NYG - K) **Nine Inch Neils (RNATB) - 2 draft picks** Joique Bell (Det - RB) Marquess Wilson (Chi - WR) Connor Barth (NO - K) Khiry Robinson (NYJ - RB) **RetroVertigo - 4 draft picks** Brian Quick (LA - WR) Jaelen Strong (Hou - WR) Marcus Murphy (NO - RB) Justin Hunter (Ten - WR) **Warner’s Brothers - 5 draft picks** Roddy White (Atl - WR) Tre Mason (LA - RB) Dri Archer (Buf - WR,RB) Harry Douglas (Ten - WR) Bernard Pierce (NYJ - RB) **We Do HGH (Stringer) - 4 draft picks** Juwan Thompson (Den - RB) Dwayne Harris (NYG - WR) Marshawn Lynch (Sea - RB) Orleans Darkwa (NYG - RB) DeAndre Smelter (SF - WR) San Francisco (SF - DEF) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-fantasy-football-dynasty-league-year-eight/761259.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-fantasy-football-dynasty-league-year-eight/761259.md?page=6)
