yeah i am, finding it a bit harder to suss out than normal

I'm struggling to run the ball. I have also had my own players kill my slants bumping into each other.

yeah running the ball is hard, i've just been using a mobile qb and rushing that way, bit easier, but yeah my slants and screen passes they're always running into shower haha so annoying

I lost a game playing a mate because as I was about to get into FG range on a slant my other WR that wasn't catching the slant dislodged the ball, knocked it into the air and it landed in a defenders hands for an interception.

Vikings trading for Badford is interesting! I wonder what Philly is getting in return.

Thought MIN would've just been better off going in with Hill.

First rounder for Badford... That's ummm interesting.

Win-win trade there. Bradford isn't worth that much (Eagles got a 1+4 for Foles essentially!) but he's just about as good of a QB on the open market atm and he's actually semi-decent, and the Vikings are very much in their SB window with excellent ground and defence games, and all Bridgewater did was game manage and dink and dunk because he has a mediocre arm, so Bradford doesn't necessarily have to be that good to succeed - Bridgewater was a very mediocre QB last year and the Vikes took the division, and dare I say Bradford is an upgrade on him, should he not hit his floor. Could be a trade that sets the Vikes up for a heavy playoff run and adds another solid future piece to this Eagles team - a Christian McCaffery next draft would be great for them.

Or Bradford could be terrible and the Eagles take some bust and they both continue to never threaten for a conference title.

Chase Daniel for MVP tho

Any of you guys playing the Sportsdeck Salary Cap comp?

Capper posted it in the fantasy thread. I ended up starting a league to check it out. The league code is 525746 if anyone wants to join.

They also have a tipping comp and I started one on there as well. The code for that is 498757

Will give it a crack. My son is a NFL fantasy nut. We lived in Denver from 2010-13. A little knowledge but nothing fantasy related. Is GNR a valid strategy in NFL?

Not exactly, but it looks like there are some huge injury discounts. Jordy Nelson and Kelvin Benjamin are the two that come straight to mind.
