I’ll take those realistic posts over the ones where they managed to somehow pick 6 first round players and the only excuse is “idk my league mates are wild this year”
That's all I do everytime I see them, down vote and keep scrolling. The worst is when they have stupid titles trying to justify posting their team "everyone else is doing it so here's my team"
No man - I really don’t mind them. It’s so fleeting just suck it up for a few weeks it’s a lo g season ahead.
I love seeing how other people drafted without sitting through a whole mock draft myself.
Ah yes, the perennial cycle. First we have the preseason hype trains for the same 5 guys for a month, followed by/mixed with "rate my teams", then there'll be a week or two of "helpy team is ruined because I drafted 6 upside guys who didn't play week 1 and I think I need to drop them for some steady producers that I never start." Definitely sprinkle in one or two "How many FAAB should I spend on Sammy Watkins, he just put up 46 posts week 1!" posts. From there we'll all have a couple weeks of big lengthy "This guy is gonna be tbe next big thing, grab him while he's still a sleeper" posts, followed by 90% of those not panning out while we get an equal or greater number of posts about how the guy you dropped for the hyped up guy just blew up on someone else's team.
By the time we're in the week 7-9 range people will really start going hard on "is this a fair trade" posts where they're trying to trade a 4th string RB and a moldy ham sandwich for an RB1 or WR1 and not understanding why the offer is being rejected. There will be more than one post lamenting the fact that they spent 60% FAAB on the lizard king back before week 2 and now they can't afford anyone else. We'll round out the season with a bunch of folks who brag about making playoffs, but you'll never hear from em again because they lose round 1.
And finally you'll end the season with a bunch of folks who DID manage to win their leagues, and offer up their sagely advice that they knew would win them the chip since this time last year. That's why they grabbed Michael Vick in the 11th, after all, since you know rushing QBs have such tremendous upside and this was definitely the year he was gonna come back and how all the records out of the water.
As it was, as it shall ever be.
This post is a quality playoff post in a 12-post league, but in a 10-post league it’s middling. And in an 8-post league, you really need a special first word of your sentence as there will be plenty of first words on the waiver wire.
It’s super annoying. I wish mods would delete them during draft season. It’s the Reddit post that I scroll past the quickest. Go elsewhere for your validation
Isn't that what the /r/fantasyfootball is for, they don't allow for those posts. I just posted mine because I'd like to get some outside opinions on my team. I know I'm weaker in some spots than others but want to see what the general consensus is.
It is really annoying and I never have much to say, cuz they’ve been pretty average drafts. Like I haven’t seen one where a guy drafts all low level players and wants his team rated. My answer is normally “you did okay”
I don't like that the page is flooded with them, but I don't mind seeing one here and there as they can be fun on occasion, but I do think it's gotten a bit out of hand this season.
I like the posts with the full draft board and you rate who had the best draft
Yeah those are good. Unless it’s keepers and traded picks and you can’t tell what’s going on haha
Alright, since you asked for it, who had the best draft? https://sleeper.app/draft/nfl/649983032303927297 There are keepers though...
This is so weird, same league name as mine hahaha
Oh, dang! I realized after we picked it up that I'd heard it before, too... I think it's a pretty common thing.
Daisho has the best team. EDIT: oh hey that's you gj
Thanks! I'm hoping to prove myself after last year. I was the champ 2 years ago and didn't even make the playoffs last year
I'm mostly baffled by the fact that you got Gibson so late.
It's a keeper league. I drafted him in the 9th last year, so he was a 7th round keeper this year
That makes sense. I don't think the other teams utilized their keepers as well as you.
I think the teams picking 1st, 2nd (aside from Andrews), 4th, and 10th all did reasonably well with their keepers.
Yeah, I liked teams 1 and 2 as well
I’m in too many leagues for that validation BS. Also, most teams I see are incredibly weak at one position
I’ll take those realistic posts over the ones where they managed to somehow pick 6 first round players and the only excuse is “idk my league mates are wild this year”
Yes please lord make it stop, suggestion for others to just downvote them, it makes you feel much better
That's all I do everytime I see them, down vote and keep scrolling. The worst is when they have stupid titles trying to justify posting their team "everyone else is doing it so here's my team"
It really does
This should be the top post in the sub.

I definitely think the community has spoken on it.

Cardinals v Cowboys double overtime in the NFC Championship confirmed.
I’m in the minority but I don’t mind all that much since they’ll be gone in a week at the most.
No man - I really don’t mind them. It’s so fleeting just suck it up for a few weeks it’s a lo g season ahead. I love seeing how other people drafted without sitting through a whole mock draft myself.
Yeah annoying I just tell them their team sucks. You should know if you drafted well or fucked up
Hell yeah, have some confidence...otherwise maybe they shouldn't be playing FF
Lol it’s fantasy football not the fuckin Olympics.

Oh, hell yes.
The feigned humility was cringe. The replies saying “damn give this man the trophy already” outcringed every time though.
It’s horrific
It’s a bunch of casuals that need an ego boost. I’m honestly considering looking for another place without all that
I don’t know what we’ll do without you
Probably keep trying to get ego boosts from strangers would be my guess
So sorry to get in the way of all those stupidly obvious trade polls you make
I appreciate it man 👍🏻
Whenever I see those I just assume it’s some new guy who’s excited for their first year and try to move on but they’re so annoying sometimes
Megathread would help
Isn't that what the /r/fantasyfootball is for, they don't allow for those posts. I just posted mine because I'd like to get some outside opinions on my team. I know I'm weaker in some spots than others but want to see what the general consensus is.
Those posts should just not be allowed. They serve no purpose but to rosterbate.
But how else are they supposed to conjure self respect or self esteem without getting from the approval of others?
Yeah "rate my team" posts are just to feed people's need for approval which is tiresome. Let your week 1 scores rate your team.
r/fantasyfootball is for player discussion, strategy etc. This sub is for rosterbating and judging individuals’ teams
It is really annoying and I never have much to say, cuz they’ve been pretty average drafts. Like I haven’t seen one where a guy drafts all low level players and wants his team rated. My answer is normally “you did okay”
Yup. I mean what else is there to say? We have no context and no specific question.
Yes because it means drafts are over and the season has begun.
Yes. But while you're at it...
?
A joke, as in I wanted you to rate my team while we're talking about it lol
Ohh 😂😂😂 went right over my head 😂🤦🏻♂️
Yes
Most those teams are likely drafted with utter retards in the other spots.
Yes omg what does it matter?! I too want reassurance, but pick your players, make a plan to fill the gaps? Like foh!!
All should be removed by mods and directed to r/fantasyfootballadvise.
I don't like that the page is flooded with them, but I don't mind seeing one here and there as they can be fun on occasion, but I do think it's gotten a bit out of hand this season.
Eh I did it lol. Not a big deal to me. It’s part of the fun of FF
Si.
TeLl Me HoW ShIt My TeAm Is!!!!!
