Hey Im new to your channel but been doing auction drafts for years. the content for auction is so basic or irrelevant, its been hard to find anything that helps. Really enjoying your tips and the style of your channel, thanks for making content!
I love that first strategy. When you have among the most money in the auction, nominate that players you want because early in the draft, you are best positioned to go get them.
Would love to hear some commentary on SuperFlex strategy. Seems like more and more leagues are now offering the option of the 2nd starting QB, and boy do the values ever soar.
been playing fantasy football for years, just yesterday got into an auction league thru work.. odd roster too (start 2 each, Q,R,W,T,K,D.. bench two W, R, one each rest.. no more/no less) .. , so i'm excited for new drafting challenge
I really like nominating someone who is mid priced that I am higher on especially if it is a tight end or a qb. Last year it was Andrews I had a specific build if I got him.
@DJ-zi7oe sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I ended up getting Andrews for less than Hockenson ended up going for later in the draft which seemed like a steal at the time.
I think nomination order affects your strategy. Like if I’m high in the order, should I nominate Tyreek Hill knowing my other league mates may go overboard since everyone has money at that point? (He’s my #1 target)
Nomination order definitely affects it but I believe nominating Hill earlier will help with price. If Lamb and couple others are gone before Hill is nominated he will go for more usually despite a few dollars already being spent
disagree on your strategy to some point....if you throw out a guy in the top tier that you want ok....but if you throw a tier 2 or tier 3 guy out first time through they will go for more than if they went later.....through out guys you know other guys in your league especially 2 or three guys...then let them go for it....
My strategy is retarded af but i personally love it(yahoo fantasy prices) Get two top 5 WR for around $60-$65 each and make people waste their money on all the top rbs. Then wait and don’t spend any money until the mid tier rbs start coming up and get them for $10-20 each, usually a ppr merchant like rachaad and a guy who’s the number 1 in his backfield like a Jacobs or Kamara, go cheap on te ($1-3) bc it’s the least valuable position, cheap on a qb ($1-3) who can put up around 18 ppg like Dak or Joe Brr. Then you’ll have around $15 to outbid on players that can move around on your flex and bench when they spent all their money and can only max offer for a $1
For the low tier player nomination ($5-10 range), I've had some success nominating them after the top priced players, but before the mid priced players ($20-35 range). That way the teams that don't have that position yet don't view your low tier player as a threat / must have. Example would be nominating Montgomery when Josh Jacobs, Cook, KW3, Mixon, are still on the board. Anytime after that, then you may have to overpay now for your low tier player. Thoughts on when to nominate low tier QBs that have high upsides? (Love, Kyler, Jayden Daniels, Dak(?))
I think you’re spot on about nominating those lower tier after the top but before the middle. I think if you nominate those qbs early before all of the top tier guys are gone they will go relatively cheap

You guys are crushing it with new episodes! Keep it going!
If I get a player and then have to nominate right after, I nominate a player I don't want so I can go update my sheet, lineup, budget, etc.

That episode is coming soon!
@@FantasyFootballProphet Hurrah!

Then a $15 player becomes a $18 player

Good point! Thanks 💯
Would nominating someone like Zeke who I want early be good?
Yeah definitely, if he’s someone you want I think he goes cheap, especially early
