I survived the loss of JTnT this week, and i am on pace for high score of the week and to swing from 7th to 4th place in overall standings and 2nd in points for.
For high score:
Me–> Lawrence + 12.02
2nd place → Kirk + McManus
My division has tightened up, heading into the final week it is one person at 7-6 & four people at 6-7
We are just a 10 team league this year, so there are weeks when crazy things happen.
This week was one of them for me:
DK: 37.40
Collins: 34.10
LaPorta(Bye week/injury replacement for Andrews): 29
Charbonnet: 16.90
Tampa: 17
Im in 3 leagues. Almost threaded the needle tonight where mixin got me enough to win 2 but not ao much to drop the other. His last regulation touches were too much. 2-1 for the week
I’m 8-5 in a 14 team league, with 5 other teams there and 2 others at 7-5. This week is the last of the regular season. Due to losing tiebreakers, win this week and I’m in the playoffs but a loss means I’m likely out. If I score big but lose, I could still be in.
I’m 7-6 in the other league, currently in the wildcard spot due to having the tiebreakers edge over 2 other 7-6 teams. There are 2 teams at 10-3 that have clinched. I have 2 games left on the schedule: this week against a 10-3 team and next week against a mediocre team. If I win both I’m in. If I win one of 2 I may still be in but there are a few ways that could play out.
My division in our two division 10 team league is stupid tight right now. I also screwed up and didn’t adjust playoffs properly when we dropped from 12 to 10 teams, so six teams still make the playoffs. Regardless, this is sort of absurd:
I picked them up in both leagues last week. This week’s matchup is great, but they also have a soft schedule for the rest of the year. @NYJ, @TEN, CLE, TEN is pretty tasty for a DST that was widely available last week.
If you are sure you won’t play them, the other considerations are whether there is something better on the waiver wire that is more valuable and whether you’d be concerned if an opponent might use them against you.
In a league I play in with deep benches, the free agents are slim pickings so I might hang onto them. In another with shallow benches, I would probably cut them.
I was wrong: I didn’t notice that there’s another matchup between contenders, so I’ve clinched a playoff berth. It’s virtually impossible for me to get the 1/2 seed with a bye, so this week doesn’t matter much. It matters a lot for my opponent and other teams, as my opponent could get a top seed or get a low seed.
