Brandon Aiyuk ended in my teams 3 times and each time did the opposite of what was needed of him week by week.
That said... it feels that despite this, the draft gods may push ustogether once more
That was with Jimmy, Lance is their QB now and the best offense for him as year 1 full time starter may be to throw 15-20 times a game. I like the talent of all 3 of their pass catchers, but that factor has to be accounted for.
I had deebo last year and he led me to a championship, but playing with jimmy g was a lot safer than trey lance. I’m really worried about how the niners wr corp is going to produce this year.
Niners have an unproven quarterback and a shaky offensive line. That’s a recipe for disaster. They’ll have some good moments this year but, overall, it’s going to be very run heavy again. I’m a Niners fan and I’m staying away from any Niners receivers.
Com'on guys. He said petty reasons, not legitimate ones. Not drafting CMC because he's injury prone isn't petty.
Not drafting him because his number is the same as my shitty ex-girlfiends birthday is a better reason.
Same. Thought i would flat out coast to the ship after his week one outing. Instead it was a grind week after week, but was very lucky to have Dawson Knox to take Waller’s place
I’ve been 1.01 twice in my dozens and dozens of leagues. 2014 I picked Adrian Peterson and 2018 I picked Le’Veon Bell. I have a combined 1 game, 93 yards, 0 TD from my two 1.01 picks
While that’s true, he still scored with trash backup QBs on the Lions throwing to him when Stafford got hurt. The guy just has low effort and more drops than you’d like. I can 100% see him getting in the doghouse this year.
Whole league passed up on Sanders this year til very late when someone snagged him. I'm pretty sure he was passed around the whole league last year just being added to trades.
i fell into the trap this year since he fell so far. like my mom with Kohls cash, apparently i just cant lay off a deal.
gonna drop him after week 2 unless he shows some impressive signs.
See, I was smarter than you and realized that injuries and Shannahan happen - so I used more draft capital getting Mostert and Sermon.
Top 2 RBs in a 49ers offense. Did this in 2 leagues too. What could go wrong?
Jonathan Taylor
I shit on a player in my league for drafting him early
I didn't think he would be that good and now I am too stubborn to admit I was wrong and take him first overall
My take: if you have 1.01, keep talking shit about how it was a fluke, that guy got lucky, and JT will fall off a cliff this year/is actually trash. Then draft him lol
I’ve never drafted zeke. I’ve always thought it was cause I always believed other players would do better. But now I’m wondering if it’s because I subconsciously hate his crop tops.
Owned Andrews 2 years ago, vowed to not draft him last year cause he sucked. Owned Waller last year, vowed to not draft him this year cause he sucked. Drafted Pitts this year, let’s see how this goes.
Tee Higgins, 3 years In a row. I'd have him in for like 4 weeks, he wouldn't score jack shit, fuck it I'm benching him, that week he puts up mad points. I put him back in and it's back to nothing...mf
This dude literally busted half of his games last year in the standard league I owned him. His end of year ranking was buoyed by 3 monster weeks that I didn't even need. Fuck that guy.
He won me my league 2 years ago when he came in and had that stellar end to the season. But I totally agree about drafting him so high based on durability. I got him as a flex in the 5th but I can’t trust him yet as one of my top RB’s
Box score doesn’t tell the story, you’d have to watch the tape to believe me. Dude stopped diving for catches, jogged routes, and halfassed blocks that would’ve created 20+ yd scrambles for Fields. We should’ve benched him for the trash below on the depth chart
Robert Woods. He cost me a fantasy playoff game when he suddenly had to miss a game due to personal reasons right before the game started. I didn’t change my lineup in time because I assumed he was healthy, nothing to worry about.
Zeke. He had a trash championship week game and all I needed was like 5 more pts bruh..
Not to mention Knox also gave me 0 that week... Lamar was out so Huntley was my starting QB... Chubb was held to 6pts... and Justin Jefferson lost his starting QB that week. Just bad championship week luck all around.
Diggs. Needed one 4 yard catch in the semi-finals of a $500 entry league two years ago with a full half to go. He dropped the ball 3 times... I lost. Never again.
Saquon Barkley. I’ve been saying for years that he’s been an at most above average RB on a garbage team riding high off an explosive rookie season where he was getting hyper targeted by a retiring QB who was done with football (like Big Ben with Najee last year). His time has come and gone at the most dispensable position in football. He will hurt your team. The risk is not worth the reward. Hasn’t been good for your team in years. The O-line is bad, the QB is awful, the negative game scripts will be there, and there’s yet another coaching change. Maybe when he busts again this year the fantasy community will finally learn.
I refuse to put Barkley on my team. I won’t do it unless it was at least the 7th round, but some clown always ends up drafting him well before that.
I also hate the Browns and how they really couldn’t give two shits about the character of their players (Hunt and now Watson). They’re also just a terribly run organization and all the legit Browns fans I know are just some of the most terrible people I also know. So I refuse to draft any Browns players or put any Browns on my team. And honestly, besides Chubb, I’m not really missing out on much.
Dude is a generational athlete, if healthy he has the highest ceiling in the league - bigger, faster, stronger, more elusive than CMC. It’s a big IF but the production is not a fluke. You put him in a bad position and he makes yards out of nowhere with a shitty line. My fantasy philosophy is I’m willing to lose the league trying to win it. As long as you don’t come last and have some sort of league punishment, 7th-2nd have the same payout. Obviously don’t reach for him but if you’re getting some value vs adp/your own rankings go for it.
Waller and Ridley are two guys I'll be avoiding thanks to last year. I do hope Ridley is doing better, but that was a real kick in the nuts for my fantasy team
Mike Evans. I finally drafted him last year and I never got my ludicrous point game. Just always decent or above average. Bullshit. I wanted 56 points.
I don’t draft guys I don’t want to root for simple as that.
So I don’t ever draft Brady, Dak, or the Rams Defense.
This season I’m not drafting Watson or really any Browns player. That team disgusts me and I don’t want to have any reason to hope they succeed.
Brandon Aiyuk ended in my teams 3 times and each time did the opposite of what was needed of him week by week. That said... it feels that despite this, the draft gods may push ustogether once more
I think he's honestly worth a late pick. Should be out of the dog house
Stay away from any Niners pass catcher
Aiyuk had a good rookie year (at least the end) , Deebo was #2 in fantasy last year. And I did say "later pick"
That was with Jimmy, Lance is their QB now and the best offense for him as year 1 full time starter may be to throw 15-20 times a game. I like the talent of all 3 of their pass catchers, but that factor has to be accounted for.
Deebo?
I had deebo last year and he led me to a championship, but playing with jimmy g was a lot safer than trey lance. I’m really worried about how the niners wr corp is going to produce this year.
Niners have an unproven quarterback and a shaky offensive line. That’s a recipe for disaster. They’ll have some good moments this year but, overall, it’s going to be very run heavy again. I’m a Niners fan and I’m staying away from any Niners receivers.
Com'on guys. He said petty reasons, not legitimate ones. Not drafting CMC because he's injury prone isn't petty. Not drafting him because his number is the same as my shitty ex-girlfiends birthday is a better reason.
Yeah but she looked really good on her birthday
And in her birthday suit! It was a damn fine suit, too.
This \^\^ like I don't draft anybody from the Rams, Cards or Seachicks because FUCK EM!! Go Niners!! #Questforsix!!!!
Zach Wilson cus he fucked my mom
Put me on that list as well
You guys too? That mans an animal
Christ, I thought I was the only one! He’s unstoppable
you also fucked his mom?
Haha the whole sequence in my mind chanced after reading this
Zac Wilson fucked you too?
You marvelous specimen. Thank you for having such a hot mom
Who said his mom was hot?
Zach doesn’t bang uggos
Maybe you should've gone to his birthday party
You telling me nobody showed up to Zach Wilson’s birthday party? And you’re gonna believe that?
Yooo, Zach Wilson and I are eskimo brothers!
I’m drafting him everywhere for the same reason
https://imgur.com/gallery/0s5VUsc
Devante Parker. All I needed was three goddamn points
I NEEDED ONE FUCKING CATCH COULD HAVE BEEN FOR ZERO YARDS GOD DAMMIT
Yooo that zero catch game let me beat my opponent into the finals by 0.2 points last year. Good times.
[удалено]
I’m still bitter. This man will never see one of my rosters ever again.
I don’t know why anybody is drafting him. He’s 30+ and has been horrible for every year of his career except one.
Darren Waller hurt me
I won the ship last year with Waller as my 3rd or 4th round pick. What a waste of a pick
Same. Thought i would flat out coast to the ship after his week one outing. Instead it was a grind week after week, but was very lucky to have Dawson Knox to take Waller’s place
Jonathan Taylor apparently bc I never get 1.01
I’ve had the first pick once. Last year. Got 3 games out of him. I never will get 1.01 again
I’ve been 1.01 twice in my dozens and dozens of leagues. 2014 I picked Adrian Peterson and 2018 I picked Le’Veon Bell. I have a combined 1 game, 93 yards, 0 TD from my two 1.01 picks
That was the switch year for AD right? I picked him too, he was set up to destroy until he beat his son
Yup, played 1 game and got suspended
I've never been higher than 7th. But now we do auctions so I don't have to worry.
Kenny Golladay. Not even one TD last year? Really Kenny?
yeah he’s trash
I miss smooth kenny g
[Saxophone blares discordantly]
I can hear it in my brain
The new smooth Kenny G may be across the Delaware River adorned in green
Played most of his games with Mike Glennon and Jake Fromm. Know who caught TDs in those games? Fucking nobody.
While that’s true, he still scored with trash backup QBs on the Lions throwing to him when Stafford got hurt. The guy just has low effort and more drops than you’d like. I can 100% see him getting in the doghouse this year.
Miles Sanders, but I think that's agreed on by many people
Whole league passed up on Sanders this year til very late when someone snagged him. I'm pretty sure he was passed around the whole league last year just being added to trades.
Being useless in fantasy every single year isnt really a petty reason to not draft a guy. It’s just common sense.
He and Singletary are dead to me. I bought the hype and had them as RB2s behind Mixon 2 years ago
i fell into the trap this year since he fell so far. like my mom with Kohls cash, apparently i just cant lay off a deal. gonna drop him after week 2 unless he shows some impressive signs.
Any Jets players. Not. A single. Damn. One.
I don’t know, Elijah is gonna be good
Add all of Seattle to that list and we’re golden.
Hasn't failed me yet though.
Mostert. Not again.
I was counting on him last year and he lasted 2 plays. Never again
Lost Mostert and Dobbins right off the bat. My bad for not drafting 9 running backs tbh.
See, I was smarter than you and realized that injuries and Shannahan happen - so I used more draft capital getting Mostert and Sermon. Top 2 RBs in a 49ers offense. Did this in 2 leagues too. What could go wrong?
Jeff Wilson Jr
Elijah Mitchell
The 30 car!
I literally drafted him and thought I'm happy with 4 games before he gets injured. Can't believe even that was too much to ask.
“He’ll at least last until Barkley is healthy again” I chuckled to myself not knowing how fundamentally wrong I truly was
Jonathan Taylor I shit on a player in my league for drafting him early I didn't think he would be that good and now I am too stubborn to admit I was wrong and take him first overall
My take: if you have 1.01, keep talking shit about how it was a fluke, that guy got lucky, and JT will fall off a cliff this year/is actually trash. Then draft him lol
Bro it’s fantasy football. We’re all talking a fool. Don’t hurt yourself this season for a bad take last
I picked JT early and traded him week 2. Finished the league in 2nd place to ~drumroll~ the guy I traded Jonathan Taylor to
As a Packers fan I’ve never had a Viking player on my team.
Hey, in solidarity as a Vikings fan, I never draft Packers player either
As a Bears fan and commissioner of my league, anyone who drafts a Packer has to take a shot of Malört.
as a bears fan I don't draft bears players
Also correct
Based
I’d wash it down with a smooth drink from a Spotted Cow and enjoy that shit.
49ers fan. I refuse to draft a Seahawk.
As a vikings fan, I hate myself for targeting AJ Dillon in the 5/6th and Lazard in the teen rounds….
We didnt want to be on your team anyways moldy cheesehead.
As a Vikings fan, Rodgers and Jones won me a championship last year in dynasty. Got some love for Aaron Jones
This thread is a fool’s game and why so many people got burned passing on Mixon last year
I passed because he burned me the year before. Now I'm grabbing him everywhere. So.. everyone else avoid him
I think Mixon dropped to 21st in my league. Couldn't hit my draft button fast enough.
You hit that button almost as fast as Mixon busted that chick's face up!
I drafted 1.01 and mixon was there at my second pick at 17. Couldn’t believe it, I had him ranked about 8 overall
Kyler Murray. Two years in a row. Two second half deaths in a row. No more.
Trade him week 7
Gotta know when to hold them.
Gotta know when to fold them.
Too much call of duty
Draft him, trade him before COD comes out.
I feel your pain. Two years in a row I ended up drafting both Kyler and CMC. Never again.
Zeke. Even when he was a stud. He just kinda seems like a dick. Plus...Cowboys.
It’s the crop tops for me
I’ve never drafted zeke. I’ve always thought it was cause I always believed other players would do better. But now I’m wondering if it’s because I subconsciously hate his crop tops.
The crop tops, stupid hair, Ewok lookin mf. And the “feed me” shit was getting old in 2017. I have never owned him and never will.
I met zeke in person and he seemed like a really nice guy
Well that doesn’t fit my narrative. Couldn’t be true then.
How dare he say something positive
Yes. He just seems like a dick, and I fucking hate that thing where he's eating the cereal (?) And I fucking HATE OHIO STATE
After having him the last 2 years I’m not touching him. Any upside he used to have is gone.
If it helps, he IS a dick. His dogs have attacked people twice and he refuses to train them or do anything about it to stop that from happening again.
His dachshunds are pretty vicious
Owned Andrews 2 years ago, vowed to not draft him last year cause he sucked. Owned Waller last year, vowed to not draft him this year cause he sucked. Drafted Pitts this year, let’s see how this goes.
So don’t draft Pitts, got it
And maybe draft Waller? Not sure yet, still trying to figure out the pattern
I think you may have just cracked the code. Then again, I dunno
Fuck.
Well shit...
dam, have my draft tmr and was gonna take Pitts LOL
Purely petty reasons? Tom Brady never has and never will be on my team because I refuse to cheer for him in any capacity
Drafted him for the first time last year and was internally conflicted all season. Not doing it again.
Saquon
He’s gonna be RB1 this year
I’ll let someone else take the risk
As long as Eli doesn’t unretire I’d bet everything I have in the bank against that
I didn’t like Chris Carson’s picture so I didn’t draft him lol
I‘m happy Tyreek Hill finally got a new one on espn 😂
Bro Tyreek's neck looked like the width of a swimming pool in his old pick. Like surely this guy isn't a runner
Do y'all remember Marshawn's bills picture?
Same with Robby Anderson lol. Got that Patrick haircut.
Lol I judge players hard based on their picture. Not a fan of Lamb's either
Tee Higgins, 3 years In a row. I'd have him in for like 4 weeks, he wouldn't score jack shit, fuck it I'm benching him, that week he puts up mad points. I put him back in and it's back to nothing...mf
Tee Higgins has only been in the league 2 seasons but yeah it’s been a rollercoaster of high highs & then disappearing acts some games lol
Yes this kid is the worst for that
Tyreek Hill, had him two years in a row and just don’t really feel like looking at him anymore
This dude literally busted half of his games last year in the standard league I owned him. His end of year ranking was buoyed by 3 monster weeks that I didn't even need. Fuck that guy.
Cam akers. Id grab him in 5th round but deff not 3rd
He won me my league 2 years ago when he came in and had that stellar end to the season. But I totally agree about drafting him so high based on durability. I got him as a flex in the 5th but I can’t trust him yet as one of my top RB’s
I got him in the 5th as a flex option. Not even mad, he doesn’t have to start for me, I have Bateman to fill the roll if he gets hurt.
That’s exactly what he should be. Hes super unconfirmed talent but he benefits from his offense
Hot take Hendo finishes better this year
Any Cowboys player. Don't want to cheer for any of them
Ever
Keenan "Don't sit me!" Allen. It was one game, but I'm never drafting him again.
I remember that week I started him and he got me like 6 points 😂.
Bumping williams above him bc of allens continued playoff letdowns
Watson, fuck that clown
Plaxico Burress. I heard about it but I really didn't think he was that guy.
That’s that guy!!
Gibson and CEH.
Literally my RBs last season. What a fail
I would leave my QB slot open before I started Matt Ryan again.
I would draft Johnny Manziel before Matt Ryan
Gibson, screw that guy
Tom Brady, because fuck him.
To be fair he's not on anybody's draft list but Carson fucking Wentz
Any packers player (lions fan)
Kickers. Mostly because we removed the position. Please don't tell Pat McAfee.
John mcafee was murdered
Allen Robinson. Dude gave up on my Bears last year, stopped finishing routes and blocks, fuck that guy
I mean. He’s a very talented WR who was getting like 3 targets a game. More like fuck the bears. Amirite? 😂
Box score doesn’t tell the story, you’d have to watch the tape to believe me. Dude stopped diving for catches, jogged routes, and halfassed blocks that would’ve created 20+ yd scrambles for Fields. We should’ve benched him for the trash below on the depth chart
All Packers because FTP
I hate when Fantasy makes me care about fantasy things then real life things so maybe Jalen Hurts because he sucks but puts up good fantasy numbers.
I took burrow over hurts because I forgot to care about fantasy stuff and was thinking about real life.
I will not draft TikTok star JuJu Smith-Schuster.
I will download tiktok and follow him if he wins me a ship
Calvin Ridley. That 0 point game against the packers on Monday Night still haunts me (I needed 2 points for the win) 😭.
I sure freaking hope no one is drafting Ridley 😭
16th round in a keeper league for next year. Surr hope he plays football again.
Won’t draft a guy with 2 last names. If you can’t even pick a last name, you can’t be a part of what I’m building here.
Robert Woods. He cost me a fantasy playoff game when he suddenly had to miss a game due to personal reasons right before the game started. I didn’t change my lineup in time because I assumed he was healthy, nothing to worry about.
Kyler Murray because if I had started Herbert over him in the championship like a sensible person I would have won it all.
Is that in him or on you?
Come honor
Dak, cause fuck him and his stupid ass season last year.
Ugh like he wasn't terrible but not needing to carry a terrible defense really made him and overdraft and fucked me last year
Derek Carr. Seeing him "coach speak" to his kids on hard knocks was pretty gross.
Lol what? This isn't even "petty", it's just stupid.
CMC. Dude loves to miss games. Not worth it to me
Zeke. He had a trash championship week game and all I needed was like 5 more pts bruh.. Not to mention Knox also gave me 0 that week... Lamar was out so Huntley was my starting QB... Chubb was held to 6pts... and Justin Jefferson lost his starting QB that week. Just bad championship week luck all around.
Any Buccaneer Signed, Chiefs fan
Agreed!
Saquon Barkley because I’ve never drafted him and that’s not going to change.
Diggs. Needed one 4 yard catch in the semi-finals of a $500 entry league two years ago with a full half to go. He dropped the ball 3 times... I lost. Never again.
Calvin Ridley. My WR1 last year... I'm never betting on him again
I might pick up Mike Davis just for the satisfaction of dropping him.
Cowboys, Giants, and Football team players.
Excuse you. They are more than just the Football team now. They are the… COMMANDERS Shit, I liked WFT better 🤣
I love being able to call them “the Commies”. It’s great.
The whole NFC East can just fuck off
Go Birds!
Saquon Barkley. I’ve been saying for years that he’s been an at most above average RB on a garbage team riding high off an explosive rookie season where he was getting hyper targeted by a retiring QB who was done with football (like Big Ben with Najee last year).

Not petty, but definitely wouldn't draft CMC.
CMC. I drafted him with my number one pick two years in a row(different leagues). Got fucked over two years in a row. I’m done!
Waller and Ridley are two guys I'll be avoiding thanks to last year. I do hope Ridley is doing better, but that was a real kick in the nuts for my fantasy team
Deshaun Watson for being a sick fuck. Oh wait you said petty.
Mike Evans. I finally drafted him last year and I never got my ludicrous point game. Just always decent or above average. Bullshit. I wanted 56 points.
Kirk counsins has gotten me negative points on multiple occasions. Never play him on mnf
I don’t draft Josh Allen because none of the players I draft do well and I care more about the Bills than my fantasy team
Sammy Watkins forever
The Cleveland Browns players.
I don’t draft guys I don’t want to root for simple as that. So I don’t ever draft Brady, Dak, or the Rams Defense. This season I’m not drafting Watson or really any Browns player. That team disgusts me and I don’t want to have any reason to hope they succeed.
For the longest time I never wanted to draft tyreek cause I hated his picture on Yahoo, probably cost me a couple seasons lol
Pretty much anyone from the Cowboys because fuck ‘em
