Here's the link: Armchair Dynasty League 1 pt PPR. QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, FLEX, D, K 3 round rookie draft in July (you have the 2nd pick in each round). Must be willing to be an active manager and to be in it for the long haul please. IMO it's notably more fun taking over someone else's team than it is to draft your own b/c of the challenge associated with making the team your own. Here's the roster you'll be inheriting. Roster Size: 28/25 QB Andrew Luck QB Alex Smith QB Jared Goff QB Mitchell Trubisky QB Nick Foles RB Doug Martin RB CJ Anderson RB Terrence West RB Eddie Lacy RB Rob Kelley RB Mike Gillisle RB Orleans Darwka RB Corey Clement WR Mike Evans WR Davante Adams WR Josh Gordon WR Jordy Nelson WR Laquon Treadwell WR Pierre Garcon WR Danny Amendola WR Brandon Coleman WR Carlos Henderson TE Eric Ebron TE Julius Thomas TE Stephen Anderson PK Kai Forbath DF Houston DF Philadelphia
That roster ain't a shipwreck BTW. You want a bonafide shipwreck- look at the team I took over in 2014 [below]. Inheriting this dumpster fire -- the challenge associated with making the team my own and rescuing it from peril -- is some of the most fun I've had in fantasy football. Makes it markedly more interactive to take over a mediocre roster. Required a lot of work to turn this dysfunctional team into the one below it. That process was much more enjoyable for me than doing a new startup league where the dynasty team is my own immediately following the draft. QB Matt Schaub QB Mike Vick QB Brandon Weeden RB Danny Woodhead RB Joique Bell RB Fred Jackson - (irrelevant RB after 2014) RB Joseph Randle RB Knile Davis RB Shonn Greene WR Keenan Allen WR Brian Hartline - (irrelevant WR after 2013) WR Reggie Wayne - (retired after 2014) WR Davone Bess WR Greg Little WR Brandon Lloyd WR Denarius Moore TE Dallas Clark - (retired after 2013) TE Tony Gonzalez - (retired after 2013) ____________________ QB Tom Brady QB Pat Mahomes QB Sam Bradford RB Alvin Kamara RB Kareem Hunt RB Joe Mixon RB Tarik Cohen RB Chris Carson RB Thomas Rawls WR Keenan Allen WR Tyreek Hill WR Sammy Watkins WR Martavis Bryant WR Kelvin Benjamin WR Chris Hogan WR Keelan Cole WR Kevin White WR Quincy Enunwa TE Travis Kelce TE Evan Engram TE George Kittle TE Ricky Seals-Jones PK Harrison Butker DEF Chargers DEF Minnesota
That's a train wreck of a roster but I like a challenge and am interested. Would love to find out more about the league please.
Train wreck at RB maybe, but not one but THREE long term options at QB, and should Luck regain his health, he's a top 5 QB in fantasy. Multiple solid WRs in their prime too. Hardly a bad roster at all!
Its a deep draft at the position this year though! And a number of guys in the league are deep there too, and likely would move someone in a trade. I've remade the WR corps on my own roster almost top to bottom since last year.
The league is on Yahoo. It's been going on for years, but about half the league has turned over though over the past 4 years. Gridiron King is the commissioner. You can follow the link in the OP to see all the rosters and GMs participating. We do a rookie draft here on ThePhins every July, after which the rosters will be inputted. Each team has a $100 waiver wire budget. You can start trading away players and draft picks as soon as you sign up.
The new owner will have the #2 pick in the rookie draft with which to add another RB..... and he'll also have enough ammo (including a pair of 2nd round picks) to draft and trade for a TE and another back.
Just go to the 2018 Armchair Dynasty thread [in the Fantasy Football section] and announce that you're on board. Tell us what you want your team name to be and I'll change it atop the first page. Then feel free to start working on trades, creating a trade block, or what have you. There'll be an announcement shortly to let us know the date of the rookie draft [some time in July]. After that, GIK will input all the rosters into the Yahoo league. Team's yours now so welcome aboard.
I It's OK to be easy Todd, it's not OK to be cheap. You're worth at least $20 and a tiny airplane bottle of Rumplemintz
Another opening after someone else dropped due to time constraints Here's the link: Armchair Dynasty League 1 pt PPR. QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, FLEX, D, K 3 round rookie draft in July (you have the 2nd pick in each round). IMO it's notably more fun taking over someone else's team than it is to draft your own b/c of the challenge associated with making the team your own. Here's the roster you'll be inheriting. Bigs badasses GM: Big E Roster Size: 26/25 QB Derek Carr QB Kirk Cousins RB Melvin Gordon RB Isaiah Crowell RB Andre Ellington RB Frank Gore RB Dion Lewis RB Theo Riddick WR T.Y.

Wow, that's about half the league that's now turned over in the last year or so, right? I'm becoming an old timer at this rate!
Ya well stuff happens and sometimes peoples priorities change. In this case the old owner acknowledged he simply doesnt have the time for the league.
bump. We still need one GM. C'mon, join a competitive dynasty league with your fellow ThePhins members (it even has its own thread here every year for discussion, trades, rookie drafts, smack talking, etc).
2nd roster spot was opened after the first one was claimed. That’s how I inherited the team I eventually built as well.
Don't be scared. I suck at Fantasy Football. All my players end up hurt, suspended or just flat stink. Best thing for everyone is to just trade me all the Patsies and Fluffy Ho's so the Phins can win the East at least.
We are still looking. Can you be active....I.e. set lineups every week, respond to trades in a timely manner (i.e. within a couple of days), participate in the draft (done on here in the FF forum)? It’s a fun league with trash talk, draft pick trading etc. I think you’d make a good fit...
Can we trust this guy? I mean look at him! He looks like a nice guy on the outside sure, but I dunno??? Something just doesn't look quite right
Head over to the other thread and say hi. Let me know your team name so I can change it. Start tinkering with your roster if you want. Unfortunately the previous owner traded away all your picks from this year's rookie draft [some time in July] but feel free to trade away players for picks. I believe the going rate for Mike Evans is a 3rd rounder. (you can also trade away future picks)
Good to have ya on board. Feel free to say hi to group lol https://thephins.com/threads/2018-armchair-dynasty-ff-league.92742/page-4#post-3071453 Also don’t mind Todd’s crappy trade offers.
