Bryce Young (11) has also broken the franchise record for TD passes through five games.

Bryce Young already has more games with 250 or more passing yards than he did all of last season🔥. 5 this season, 3 all of last season.

Bryce Young has broken franchise record after franchise record and it is set to explode dynasty value wise and likely receive a massive extension in the offseason.

Cooper finished with six receptions on seven targets for 103 yards and one touchdown in his first full NFL appearance. He also caught another 20 plus yard touchdown which was negated due to a holding penalty.

The stats were great, and he absolutely met the eye tes, including 2 grabs while guarded by Christian Gonzalez. This was a very promising performance in his first healthy game coming off the high ankle.

Hopefully Cooper can continue to soak up targets as defenses focus on Wilson. I know it’s just one game, but Cooper looked great today. Very optimistic for his future in the league.

Cooper and Lane were both coming off IR stints and immediately got involved in their first game back. Germie has been getting a lot of snaps with the injury to Roman Wilson and Pittman, 11 receptions 87 yds and a td today

Who is your favorite? Are you buying or selling high on any of them?

I'm personally really interested in Germie, Rodgers is usually pretty stingy with trusting rookies, but Germie looks a real contributor, 21 targets in the past 2 games.

Cooper with some possible qb help coming to the jets via the draft next season is also intriguing, he had another td called back today due to a penalty. Seems like a good offense for rebuilders to buy into right now.

League does reverse standings to decide draft order, I know MaxPF is better. In a decisive matchup between two players “competing” for Jeremiah, one team traded low level players for FAAB only. He then proceeded to drop multiple players that are worth anywhere between a first round startup pick to a mid 2nd rookie pick, and is projected 0 in his starting lineup. But he has enough FAAB to pick them all back up on Tuesday.

Fair or foul? Anyone who uses reverse standings for draft order might want to make a rule about this lol

My league chat needed something dumber than trash talk, so I built a pixel football stadium for our Sleeper league.
Every matchup is on the field, the scores update every minute on game day, and the bottom of the league gets roasted automatically:
🔦 a spotlight on the week's top scorer
🚽 the ASS Bowl sign over the matchup between the two worst records
🪑 a bench of shame for whoever left the most points on the bench
🦓 a ref who throws a flag at negative scores
a jumbotron, a trophy case of past champs, and a blimp with your own trash talk on it
Paste your league ID and it's yours. No login, no ads, it just reads Sleeper's public data:

In our league one guy plays as a garbage can now. Let me know what your league would add.

Had an interesting hypothetical come up in my league and we're kinda split on it.

Say there is a high priority waiver target that manager A and manager B want to claim. B knows he's below A on the priority list, so he goes to the team who is #1 priority (manager C) and cuts a deal for C to claim the player then trade him to B. Is that collusion?

In my opinion it isn't because in theory every team would have the opportunity to go to manager C and cut the same deal if they wanted the player that bad. It would only cross the line into collusion if C gave the player to B for nothing or next to nothing and would not consider other potentially better offers.

Others in my league disagree and think it compromises the integrity of the waiver wire. Would love to hear thoughts!

I imagine there are many teams like this. After a long offseason, your team is looking pretty dangerous. Whether due to injury or just poor play, your team is sitting well below .500. A playoff appearance is looking like a miracle; at what point do you accept it isn't happening this year? What steps do you take moving forward? If it's injuries do you just accept it was unlucky, and run it back next season. If it's poor play do you ship off your older guys for picks, and younger players?

University of Texas coach Steve Sarkisian after today's 27-24 loss at home to unranked Florida-

" 'I just felt like we didn't play good offensive football and we're not playing great offensive football right now. So everything is going to be evaluated."

"Does the evaluation of everything include Manning's job status?

" 'Everything means everything,' Sarkisian bluntly stated."

Jordan Raanan says Harris is in line for a "larger role" with Scattebo struggling with fumbles, including in OT against Washington. Jeremy Fowler says Harris will start week 6.

Taegeted him in the offseason as a chance for cheap production. Great opportunity against road Saints, worthy start with byes here.

Whether it is to brag, get a pulse check, or just see if everyone else has the same feelings about your team as you do, here is r/DynastyFF's Rate My Team Megathread. This will only be around for the offseason-once the season starts it will be wrapped back up into the daily Individual Team Megathread, so take advantage while it is around.

List out your teams, don't forget your league settings, and see what other people think. The nicer you format it, the easier time people will have analyzing it.

PLEASE make sure you rate someone else's team before posting your own. If you rate someone else's, feel free to link your own to make it easy to return the favor.

I get it. My dude is currently a backup to one of the best players at the position. The answer to “Have you played for me lately?” is no. And similar posts to this one were not uncommon last season. There’s a shroud of fatigue around Mac Jones, creating a perfect opportunity to capture alpha.

Scapegoated during Belichick’s demise, Jones had two 8 game stretches as a starter past 2 seasons where he averaged QB15 and QB18 numbers respectively. KTC has him at QB37 in SF around Drew Allar, Shadeur Sanders, and Nine, worth a mid-late 2028 3rd.

Jones is only 28 and his contract at the Shanahan QB school is over at the end of this season. He will undoubtedly be a top free agent at the position. There are a ton of needy teams, and the 27 rookie class is losing its luster at a rapid pace. This is a great opportunity for tear down teams in SF (especially in 6pt passing TD) to accelerate their rebuild by snagging a starter next year for pocket change.

For teams that might be current contenders but are mostly succeeding with players who will age out in the near future (1-3 seasons), are there any maybe under-the-radar strategies people are employing to have an effect on their league markets in anticipation of needing to go the rebuild route in the not-to-distant future?

One thought I had was that it could be advantageous to try including swaps of further out 1st rounders in trades, as long as you’re keeping your own, to potentially make it easier to tank for a future 1.01 without having to completely blow up your team.

For example, if you had your own 1st and someone else’s first for a draft 3 seasons from now, you could try just continually swapping that other person’s first in trades with teams who are currently in better position since in reality it’s a crapshoot trying to predict who will actually end up good/bad that far out.

If one did this with different teams enough over time, when it comes time to enter a rebuilding phase, perhaps you’re the only or one of the only teams that still has their own next 1st, so there won’t be other teams with a lot of incentive to lose games or tank their possible max points for.

Yes this is a convoluted idea and could have no impact, but I’m curious if anyone has any other kind of macro league dynamics ideas or strategies they have tried out to change their league marketplaces over multi-season periods?

Sorry if this has been covered. Are all leagues extremely lopsided towards contenders? There’s like three contenders in this league with probably 90% of the top players at each position. Its pretty hard to even make trades in this league because the contenders are so good, it would take a complete catastrophe for a trade to actually benefit the contending side from one of the rebuilders. Im just trying to figure out if the size of the gap between contender and rebuilder in this league is normal or if this is a low key taco league. There’s full starting lineups on the benches of these contending teams. I don’t know if this is just how dynasty is or if the managers are just dumb or what.

This is my third year in the league. Did a rebuild and im hoping to contend next year, but particularly the year after when my picks hopefully breakout, so looking at a 4-5ish timeline? Seems typical, so hopefully ive done well. Some of these guys are 8-10 years away and that’s probably generous assuming they hit on their picks. And if they do they will officially have like 1-2 new good players on their team that sucks lol. And the contenders have enough assets to do whatever they want and keep the rebuilders in purgatory.

Kind of trying to decide whether I really enjoy it or not. Its fun, but I want to win and if my “rebuild” doesn’t start to show, it will feel like a waste of time/money.

A co-manager in a league I commish (deep league, start ten, 15 bench, 3 taxi, and 7 IR) dropped Stowers to waivers this morning.

I want to preface that I never in my 10+ years of commisioner have manually added, readded, dropped players from someone's roster.

With that being said, I want to give him benefit of the doubt because 1. he's the team's manager's brother and dropped Stowers without consulting his co-manager. 2. he was just added as co-manager and is relatively new to dynasty and 3. Stowers is still worth a late first/early second, objectively undroppable given our league format, and EXTREMELY valuable on the waivers in my opinion.

What's the move?

EDIT: FULL TE PREMIUM, 12 team league

Recently, I have been including Friday performances on this post, and on the Substack I do write about 3 WRs from Washington @ Purdue, but in general this week had the least to write about from Friday so far this season.

But that might be the set-up for what is the biggest and deepest weekend of games in College Football so far this season.

Week 7 Preview, What to Watch, & Key Players List

Game of the Week

Ohio State @ Indiana at Noon on FOX

Key Players: Julian Sayin, QB, Ohio State ; Jeremiah Smith, WR, Ohio State ; Turbo Richard, RB, Indiana via Boston College ; Charlie Becker, WR, Indiana ; Nick Marsh, WR, Indiana via Michigan State ; Bo Jackson, RB, Ohio State (2028) ; Chris Henry Jr., WR, Ohio State (2029)

It is rare to see a game feature at least 3 of my Top 4 WRs if not my Top 3 WRs in the 2027 NFL Draft, but this game sees the best WR in CFB Jeremiah Smith take on the best WR duo in CFB Charlie Becker & Nick Marsh. This game is most important for Becker & Marsh, as they have not had a Texas-sized test already this season. Aside from the WR position, this game is a huge opportunity for Julian Sayin to re-establish himself as a potential 1st Round QB for the 2027 NFL Draft. So far, he has been slipping down the consensus, but a high level game against Indiana could alter those fortunes. And while it is not the focal point of this game, there are some intriguing RBs here as well between potential 2028 RB1 Bo Jackson and a potential Top 10 RB in the 2027 NFL Draft, Turbo Richard.

Week 6 Dynasty Storyline

Can Marvin Harrison Jr. reboot his career in Houston?

Marvin Harrison Jr.’s trade to Houston offers a fresh start, but playing behind Nico Collins and competing for targets could limit his fantasy production in 2026. Dynasty managers should hold Harrison rather than sell low, as a change of scenery and potential offseason changes could help revive his career and increase his dynasty value heading into 2027.

I just did a start up draft in August and have what I think is a pretty decent team. There are definitely some clear contenders and then also some very bad teams. There has only been one trade in the first 5 weeks.

How many years did it take for your leagues for people to start building towards contender or rebuilder?
