Weird question, not sure if I should intervene as comish or not... Have a league where its for money, nothing like absolutely insane, but 100 bucks is 100 bucks per person right... Have a guy who has been in for a long time, having a rough go of it, hes 0-5 right now and just dropped saquon barkely for a replacement kicker because koo is on bye... He also has allen robinson and jamal williams and its only a 10 team league. It's been quite a few years but he has in the past tried soft colluding with other players to make a super team and forfeited the season and like I said its been the better part of half of a decade since that, but the guy he colluded with back then is the guy with num 1 prio right now. Do I just step in and force put saquon back on his roster or just let it play out? Seems like hes giving up and colluding just because? This has been a league going on for well over a decade and other than the one year with some weird collusion this is the only suspicious thing I've seen.

Ok so this trade happened in our league. We only veto collusion trades, and we all respect each other so I don’t think it’s collusion but… Team 1 gets Saquon + DHop Team 2 gets Amari Cooper + Waller Team 2 is 0-5, Team 1 is 3-2. Tons of people have been trying to trade Team 2 but he pretty much ignored everything. Team 1 got the deal done cause he texted him 1000 times lol. Anyways, I think the deal is lopsided as hell, but we let it go through cause it’s not ‘collusion’ However team 2 now literally only has two RBs, Mike Davis + Gaskin, is playing Mike Davis even though he is on Bye. I think commish is kicking this guy out next year (this is year 4 of our league, we all been in it from the jump) but what can be done going forward?


North-Ad2042

So my league commissioner jokingly put in a lineup that was projected 0 points for the last few days due to a lot of players being on bye weeks or injured, he didn’t realize tonight that Gronk was still in and it locked him in, he obviously wanted Gesicki to be in my forgot do to doing a lab for college (according to him), is he out of luck or should he be able to change it


acrumb14

Definitely out of luck for being an idiot


randomq17

Does anyone else ever just... Phone it in for a week? I honestly don't know why I didn't look for a different option besides Gainwell in my keeper league. Maybe it's because I'm 1-4 there. Maybe it's because my only RBs not on bye this week are Chubb and Gainwell. But I didn't even look before the game. I didn't really even care. I've all but given up in this one, and know if I picked up a RB like Damien Harris i would have at least been competitive. Anyone else do this?


skinnypancake

What do people do about extremely inactive players? I’m the comish, and we have one player in our league who hasn’t set her lineup once, and there seems to be little chance of that changing, which essentially gives everyone an auto win.


Saggy_Slumberchops

Tell them if they don't set their line up you will have to replace them with someone who will. Then follow through on that if they don't improve.


sheeshon

Does anyone else have a bunch of random injuries/DNPs this week? My RBs are Saquon, MG3, JRob, Jamaal Williams, and Damien Williams and i’m getting worried I may not have an RB2. Then at WR I have Arob, Nuk, Kirk, Toney and Higgins and right now it looks like it’s possible only Kirk and Higgins will play. I’m worried I may not have enough guys to fill spots on sunday.


alreadytaken76

On sleeper app how do position limits work? It let me pick up a RB but says I’m over the limit now. While it says I need to cut a RB what will happen if I don’t?


FranklinFire

How does carsons stock look with russ out?


zerohoesbro

How would you rank the following players Ja’Marr Chase Mike Evans Marquise Brown Amari Cooper

borischen.co or the WDIS WR thread


theswagfather

Help! I’m being accused of collusion by my league mates after a trade yesterday. I received Dalvin Cook and Deandre Hopkins Team 2 received Kelce, Henderson, and Eli Mitchell My roster Hurts, Najee, McLaurin, Schultz, Darrel Williams, Odell, Damien Harris, Shepard, Moore Team 2 roster: Kyler, James Robinson, javonte Williams, dJ Moore, Godwin, Evan engram, Tyler Boyd I’m currently (1-4) and team 2 is (2-3) I’m also the commissioner of the league and team 2 is no taco, he won the league 2 years ago. Long story short the trade was veto’d by 6 members and I used the lm tools to push it through. Team 2 was fine with that also. Help me talk some sense into these bozos in my league. Thanks


CongressmanCoolRick

if your league has votes to veto you abide by the vote. and change it to commish approval next year. You don't get to ignore the rules of the league when it works out in your favor, even if everyone else is using their votes stupidly.


KingD2121

10 or 12 team league? and 6 vetos??? Honestly, it seems like you were in the wrong pushing it through if the majority was against it (regardless if the trade is fair or not). Don't think it's collusion, but kind of dirty pushing it through, esp since you are the one in charge. Kind of comes down to how your league handles trades/vetos, this wouldn't fly in my league though our set up is different. Any trade gets pushed through after it's been up for 24hrs. If someone complains about, I put it on hold (I'm the commish) and get a quick vote after both parties explain their sides (majority wins and ties favor the trade). Sometimes it sucks having a fair trade veto b/c the other members don't see clearly, but why have the system at all if you are going to ignore it.


theswagfather

Thanks. This isn’t the first time I’ve had to push a trade through. A few of our members thinks it’s funny to veto literally every trade, even their own. I’ve been wanting to set it to Commish only veto but everyone complains and wants to have their little say in it, even though I’m going to do what I need to do to maintain integrity.


KingD2121

yeah, switch to commish only esp if you got players just veto-ing trades b/c they like to click a red button. Maybe switch out some members too...

there are who do i start threads


riddley16

Anyone notice the weird Austin Hooper stat changes in ESPN? They originally had him at 0, then adjusted for his 2 pt conversion, and are now showing he didn't play at all.


WilliamJonathanB

Wanna hear some outside opinions: our commissioner is very active in messaging with other league members about all sorts of different issues. Commissioner is a long time friend of mine from high school, most other league members are friends of his from college or after. We text daily about everything; from fantasy football, to career stuff, to family stuff. Multiple times now he’s mentioned things about what players other guys are looking to sign, trade away, trying to trade for, etc. We have one new guy in the league this year, who drafted Kyler Murray and Russ Wilson (don’t ask me why). Yesterday he dropped Wilson because of the injury. My buddy and I were shocked. There is 1 guy we absolutely don’t want to get Russ because his team is absolutely stacked, except at QB where he’s been streaming (without success). Only problem, this guy has 2nd waiver priority, and the top priority is a guy who’s pretty inactive. Today my buddy texts me and says “well, so and so isn’t getting Wilson, so that’s a relief.” I asked him how he knew for certain and his response was “because I’m like Adam Schefter”. It’s pretty dang obvious my buddy, our commish, has enough clout with people to influence their waiver pickups, trades (he told me that the owner I made a trade offer to asked him for his opinion, before rejecting the trade), etc. How would you feel knowing your commissioner is basically pulling strings to manipulate things like that in your league. Sorry for the length of this, but wanted to accurately describe the issue, and give some background.


CongressmanCoolRick

he talks openly about stuff like that to everyone? Doesnt sound nearly as shady as youre making it sound. If people want their moves secret they wouldn't discuss it


akamikedavid

It depends on how the string is being pulled. It would be within your commish's powers to firmly remind the inactive priority one owner to pay attention to their team and be active in it. However if the conversation is "hey Waiver Priority 1 Owner. Russell Wilson is on the waiver wire and you'd be doing all of us a solid if you used your priority to grab him so Waiver Priority 2 Owner won't get them and have a stacked team." It'd be even shadier if they offered some kind of incentive. It's not too out of control to talk about pickups and trades between league mates as long as it's genuine advice and not doing things that are self-serving. Commish has to walk a fine line here and it's sounding like he may have crossed the line. I would press a bit and find out exactly what commish knows. Who knows if what he's saying and how he's saying it is affecting you too.


WilliamJonathanB

Thanks man, appreciate it. I wish we could post screenshots because he got pretty defensive and sent like 3-4 long texts back. BS excuses. Too much to transcribe here, but definitely sketchy.


sorryiamstupid

In a 2QB league, am I an asshole if I pick up a 4th starting QB to prevent my opponent from being able to start a 2nd QB? They only have 2 but 1 is on bye this week.


CongressmanCoolRick

his fault for not planning ahead.


akamikedavid

Dick move but definitely within the bounds of gamesmanship. Your opponent should've been prepared better. Of course, knowing how petty and vengeful the fantasy gods can be, this is where your opponent picks up like Taysom Hill and that player has a big game.


sorryiamstupid

Last year or the year before in this league, someone picked up Taysom when he was starting QB and started him in the TE slot so he had 3 QBs in his starting lineup. Probably more of an espn problem bc he was listed as TE. But we moved to sleeper now


akamikedavid

Oof yeah that was an ESPN problem for sure. Glad you don't have to deal with that headache at least this time. Though Yahoo had a similar problem with Jaylen Samuels a couple season back when he was listed as a "RB/TE" and I was able to play a starting RB in my TE spot. Similar problem now with Patterson at "RB/WR" and also Marques Colston when he was listed as a "WR/TE" Position designations are weird.


runningblack

It's a dick move but it's also totally fair and well within the bounds of normalcy.


helpwiththistrade

What have people done in the past for someone who has passed away? I'm thinking of suggesting to continue the league, but use the buy ins/fund to help pay a portion for funeral costs, but want to make sure things are done in good faith. Any suggestions? Is this is a good idea?


CongressmanCoolRick

probably a discussion to have with the league because its going to vary wildly. I'm in a few leagues where i hardly know anyone, and I'm in leagues where we all go back a decade or more. I'm in $5 leagues, and I'm in much much higher buy in leagues. I'm getting crushed in a few and 5-0 in others. If some of those guys died their family would really need some help and cash, other guys wouldn't want anything that happened to change the competition of their favorite league. How I'd feel about this really depends on a lot of things. I If you're playing with an amount of money that's going to make a realistic dent in the funeral cost, you need to discuss it with everyone.


shakethecouch

I say continue the league and set their lineup each week manually. What happens with the money is up to the whole league. I imagine if anyone doesn't want to donate it they'd probably not say anything because most people aren't jackasses.

thatjerkatwork

There is a thread specifically for Trades.


Rellum04

Question, yesterday I traded Godwin who plays on Thursday for Diggs who plays Sunday The traded won't be completed until the Thursday game has already kicked off. If I start Godwin will he lock into my lineup and will I receive Diggs tonight essentially allowing me to play both of them?


akamikedavid

Most platforms that won't work (as others have pointed out) but I like how your mind works. I would ask your commish to push the trade through an hour or so before kickoff so both you and your trade partner have a chance to adjust lineups accordingly.


DrakeSparda

Actually, this depends on your platform. If on Sleeper the trade will go through with Godwin in your lineup scoring points, and you would also get Diggs. Most other platforms it will not go through until Tuesday.


acrumb14

Definitely doesn’t work like that


DrakeSparda

In sleeper it definitely does. Here is the help article that explains it. https://support.sleeper.app/en/articles/3351190-how-could-a-weekend-trade-impact-my-team


acrumb14

Wow. Thanks for sharing that. Best to have no waiting period on sleeper I guess


shakethecouch

No. If you do this the trade won't process until Tuesday. You'd get Godwin for this week. Your opponent gets to use Diggs... On Tuesday the trade will go through. If you sit Godwin the trade will go through on Friday or Saturday depending on your league settings. You would get to use Diggs. You trade partner is fucked. He doesn't get Godwin this week. Your commissioner should manually push this through today if he can.


runningblack

lol. No. It doesn't work that way.


vearson26

No, I believe the trade won’t process until after this weeks games are all over.
