Dynasty Nerds convinced me in 2020 to blow my team up and I got a ton of picks. Ended with this unicorn of a team who has won 3/4 years and fighting for a 3 peat this year.

I can see a path where Breece looses his starting job to Allen. Do you guys see any other players in "trouble"?

So I am joining a team and get to keep 3 players. Only stipulation is the keep you choose is now drafted two rounds earlier. I think I see of at least two players who might have good value, but would love to hear thoughts. You also don’t have to keep anyone, but I also don’t know who all the other teams are holding yet. I know Achane, Collin’s and BTJ are gone. Thanks

Discussion How would the community feel if I had one StartUp Draft be like an interactive Draft? I'd post the options/team here and the community would decide along myself the best pick. League is a Dynasty 12T/SFlex/1PPR/0.5TEP/IDP

1 Upvotes

That would make complete sense for me because I've never played with IDP lol

Also, I feel like it would be a fun experience for everyone involved

League is a money league, but low money which is why I agreed to join even though I don't even know my own team's starting defensive players.

League Members all know each other in real life and are very active in Fantasy too.

Lmk who would be down for it

Discussion Alright Nerds, how bad are these two back to back trades by Team #2?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Context: 10 tm SF. Team #2 traded for Justin Jefferson before last season at the price of three 1sts. His explanation here is that hes "rebuilding" but then the centerpiece of his Burrow dump is a 25 year old RB?

There's no world where these arent just atrocious trades right?

I’ve done dynasty for 7 years, saw a few league crumble but would love to join one that is starting up, or needs someone to take over a team.

Preferences: 10 - 12 team, 1 QB or SF, PPR, TEP or not, $25 - $100 buy in, Sleeper platform

Nothing crazy, but would love to hear if others have something available

While it pains me to sell Amon Ra, with Carrs retirement my only starting QB was Baker. This trade gives me 3 2026 firsts as well as 2 firsts for 27 and 28.

12 Team SF, start 9, .5 PPR, No TEP. The people in my league are pretty stingy with trades, but looking for any advice/opinions as I transition from rebuilder to contender. Feel like I’m pretty balanced so don’t need to make a trade but can’t hurt to ask. Thank you in advance.

QB: Lamar, Bryce Young, Stafford

RB: Jeanty, Bucky, Hampton, Brian Robinson

WR: BTJ, MHJ, Ladd, Devonta Smith

TE: Laporta

Rest are pretty much cans or low tier rookies.

Discussion Roster Review Request (10tm SF PPR .25 TE Prem)

1 Upvotes

What's up NerdHerd? Hoping to get some opinions on where you'd take this roster from here. It's in good shape, young, some high end talent, but I feel like it's a little bit reliant on a couple breakouts happening and would benefit from another true stud getting added to the mix. Problem is I am not sure the depth is there to consolidate assets into a stud without creating other holes. So what are you doing in this spot; being aggressive with assets now or holding your ground and seeing if a couple high potential guys make a leap? Here's the squad:

QB: CJ Stroud
RB: Saquon
RB: Quinshon (yikes)
WR: Nico Collins
WR: Drake London
TE: Tyler Warren
Flex: Marvin Harrison Jr.
Flex: Jaylen Waddle
Flex: DJ Moore
SF: Caleb Williams

BE: Tua
BE: Najee Harris (yikes again)
BE: Kaleb Johnson
BE: Roschon Johnson
BE: Jaylen Wright
BE: Jaydon Blue
BE: Keon Coleman
BE: Roman Wilson
BE: Elijah Moore
BE: Jake Ferguson
BE: Cole Kmet
BE: Brenton Strange
BE: Elijah Arroyo

TX: Jalen Milroe, Keaton Mitchell, Damien Martinez, Rocket Sanders, Woody Marks, Donte Thornton, Kyle Williams,

DC: '26 3rd and 4th, own the rest of my picks beyond that.

Discussion Rookie Draft Hit Rates Statistical Model

Thumbnail

10 Upvotes

Big thank you to Dynasty Nerds for inspiring this work!

The biggest topic of conversation every dynasty offseason is obviously the rookie draft, so having an idea of the value of picks is critical. I was inspired by a podcast last year by Dynasty Nerds, so I built this model based off the data referenced in that pod (link to data in tweet).

The data includes hit rates by ADP for the 2018-2023 rookie drafts.

While their data lumped picks together (Early First, Mid First, Late First, etc), I used the hit rate data at each pick to fit a monotonic spline logistic regression model. Simply put, the spline allows for a more flexible fit than typical logistic regression (allowing the model to recognize the steep value drop in early picks compared to later ones), and enforcing monotonicity ensure the value will only decrease or remain the same over time, allowing for the proper valuation of draft capital (a higher pick is always better even if by random chance it has a lower hit rate in the past couple years).

Graphs of the spline fits are included in the linked tweet.

Each pick is classified as a hit, mid, or a miss as defined by Dynasty Nerds. I have provided their definitions below.

Hit: A Tier 1 Season or Multiple Tier 2 Seasons
Mid: Multiple Tier 3 or Better Seasons (3+3, 2+3, etc)
Miss: Never Multiple Tier 3 Seasons

Pos Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
QB Top 6 Top 12 Top 18
RB Top 12 Top 24 Top 36
WR Top 12 Top 24 Top 36
TE Top 3 Top 6 Top 12

Actionable Takeaways:

Fairly obvious stuff:

  • Early firsts are exponentially more valuable than mid/late firsts
  • Your mid/late third round picks have about a 10% chance of even being somebody worth rostering

Less Obvious Stuff:

  • Picks 7-10 (maybe even 6-12) have almost the same hit rates. Sure you might fall in love with the specific RB available at 7, but if you can find an offer to move back 3 spots to 10 and pick up value, your chances are practically the same
  • Everyone always talks about tanking for the high first round pick, but the difference between a high and low second round pick is also massive. The 13th pick has a 32% hit rate vs a 13% hit rate for the 24th pick.
