I’m so mad. I lost my kicker (zerline) since he “slept on his back wrong” and aggravated his back injury so he is having surgery. TWO of my WR (Benjamin and Fitzgerald) DNP yesterday (one now has full practice while the other is still limited). My third WR (Sanu) now has a limited practice today... my RB on the bench (Burkhead) DNP today and Also my other WR on the bench (maclin) is disqualified. Anyone want to give me some WR!?! So much for the championship... I hate football.

Pro-tip: Nobody practices fully in December.

But losing zurline because he slept on his back wrong is so frustrating. He was my star. RIP

Pro-tip #2: All starting kickers are basically the same**

**This is based on statistical analysis of 5+ seasons of data showing the difference between a top 5 kicker and an easily accessible on the waiver wire kicker is roughly 1-2 points per game over the course of a season.

Pro-Tip #3: Don't listen to Spin's advice, that dude didn't even make the playoffs

I blame the auto-draft software. There is only so much a person can do when Orleans Darkwa is your #1 RB all season.

Zueliein is a star. He is not your average kicker! He got me 16+ points in 7 games this season. He was better than most my WRs! He was consistent and reliable. IM317 will understand the devastation. My free agent kicker off the roster will never compare!!!

The difference between Zuerlein and Forbath was 3.4 points per game this season. You only had one matchup decided by less than 3.4 points (a loss in Week 8), and if you had Forbath then, you'd have won.

You'll be fine.

There is only so much a person can do when Orleans Darkwa is your #1 RB all season. there were so many teams that changed starting RBs this season, if you were never able to pick one up off waivers then that's on you.

I picked up Darkwa off waivers. In a 16-team league, there are no RBs worth grabbing off the waiver wire.

In a 16-team league, there are no RBs worth grabbing off the waiver wire. 16? ouch. i actually just dropped Darkwa after having him on my bench of in my lineup for a number of weeks. that also makes auto draft worse with so many teams. it always fills the lineup before picking a bench. in a 16 team league you probably need to go RB in at least 2 of the first 3 rounds and then again 2 more times by round 8.

You've literally been posting in the 16-team FE league thread all season about your non-FE, non-16 team league team.

My autodraft went WR (Jordy)-WR (Hilton)-WR (Crabtree)-TE (Reed)-RB (Martin)-RB (Riddick)-QB (Carr) Just getting to .500 was an accomplishment, I believe.
