i read this on the manage roster page and ive never seen 450 new salary points

I thought we got it earlier in the offseason, maybe about the time of the rookie draft. I then spent a bunch of mine signing the rookies to contracts. Did you sign your rookies? Maybe that's where a bunch of your funds went.

Dang. I set my autodraft up with two quarterbacks at the top, hoping I would get one. Then no one drafted a QB and the draft bolted all the way through two of my picks, so now I have two starting quarterbacks. I've got either Dak Prescott or Jordan Love on the trade block now.

I'd say your real problem is that you don't have ANY starting quarterbacks...

DJ's left nut · 10-18-2023, 09:56 AM

I, OTOH, have only one thing going for me. We're looking at the Run and Shoot here, fellas!

Trevor Lawrence
Amon Ra St. Brown
Jaylen Waddle
Drake London

That's it. I have a QB and 3 wide receivers. Granted, I think I have 3 absolute badasses and a damn nice young QB throwing the ball to them. And Jaylen Waddle is my 'old guy' at 25 years old.

But yeah, defense and protection is gonna be an issue...

Well, when you're drafting 19th you have to make some adjustments. I'll pretty much plan on neutralizing the other quarterbacks with Chris Jones and Aidan Hutchinson.

I keep trying to talk myself into DB but man the position is just so damn unstable. Year over year there are like 5 guys that are actually good. The rest are up and down and largely coast on reputation.

For these initial drafts I always find myself focusing on positions that establish a baseline and are usually pretty close to that. So QB, WR, Edge and OT - you typically see the top guys stay at the top year over year.

The Leander Lasercats in the Raiders 1 league is available. It is in okay shape but could use an owner who is more knowledgeable and has some time to dedicate to the process.

DJ's left nut · 10-18-2023, 12:03 PM

Well I don't even like that pick but BPA, bro. DJ Moore, c'mon down!

So we now have a quarterback and 4 of the top 25 WRs in football, IMO. He was literally the only guy left I had in a 'blue chip' tier for high value position groups so what the hell else was I gonna do?

Yeah, this is just silly at this point. I guess I gotta hope that someone comes looking for weapons at some point...

Nah, the future of football is a strong running game and a good defensive line, and that's what the Koalas are building 90 miles to your south.

Well just call me a throwback then because we're gripping and ripping.

It isn't Hunter and Watt, but I'm pretty happy with my bookend rushers with Chase Young and Furious George. Average age of 23 yrs old between them, high pedigree players who have both demonstrated solid floors and high ceiling potential.

Lots of work to do yet but we're only 6 picks in and I like the foundation I have in key areas.
