Any one else tired of how major free agents in football effect fantasy football so immensely. I’m sick of poorly drafted teams winning after major free agent pickups.

No...that's the whole point of a fantasy season

@Accenture 1 - guys like Ware and Chubb are really throwing off leagues. It’s one thing if the news came out during the waiver periods and everyone had a shot at bidding for them, but when they’re free agents, it’s basically a competition between who isn’t doing their work at work

That’s what makes Fan Duel more fun. You can switch your team up every single week.

From what I understand, you can make leagues or groups on fan duel, so you can play against family, friends, coworkers?

I think a format where FA’s more similarly minic NFL could be cool. Maybe drafting a lot more players? Idk, just a thought

Maybe, but like Accenture 1 was saying, there’s also some fun and strategy in waiver/free agent pickups and using your waiver budget or waiver position

Agree a1, its all about following up news, research and studying matchups. I picked up Conner, Chubb, Ridley, after the draft and Ware yesterday, my drafted rbs were DJ and Burkhead. Burkhead out already and i didn’t play him at all. I was lucky to get Conner as Bell didn’t report for first game.. DJ is as bad as Arizona is, Conner and Chubb actually helped get to the playoffs. I did have Green and Diggs as 1&2 along with Ridley as part time flex.

Cd1: But fanduel is more like sports betting aka gambling not cordial friend or coworker league

Agreed, cd1. The weekly fan duel league has become more fun than the yearly ffb lately for me. Plus all the winnings from the fan duel league go right to blown shots at a million keeping the suspense high lol.

And yes, you can make games against your friends or coworkers each week instead of randoms. At whatever entry fee you want.

You can make your setting “Continuous Waivers” which will mitigate the issue of it being a race to the computer when news comes out in the middle of the week

We use auction. Still bothers me

SM on my project stepped away on paternity leave. SM was the one who led partner discussions and most of the client meetings. We're a week from a client deadline.

As a manager, I'm stepping but incredibly stress with the amount of moving parts. I don't have a strong rapport with the partner (Neither did the SM) to be open and transparent on how stressful I'm feeling without downgrading myself.

I'm sick to the stomach and very anxious, stressed at the suddenness of the thrust.

Help!
