The benefit of being awful in week 1 fantasy is that I'm #1 on waiver wire.

i dont know why people are saying we need to find a new RB1. EM showed almost everything you want in a back. he needs to improve in his pass pro but that should come with increased PT.

We were talking about Lance competing for ROY going into this season. It might be Mitchell.

One of my leagues does. The other (auction draft), you put a portion of your $100 total FA budget to each waiver claim. Highest waiver claim wins.
