You, like me, have probably spent at least a couple of minutes this summer wondering whether Justin Jackson or Austin Ekeler is the Chargers running back best positioned to take advantage of a potential Melvin Gordon holdout. This is why I believe leagues should have recourse for teams that perform well all season long, but get screwed by the randomness of their schedule. It’s more fun to play against your friends week after week than it is to see who has the most cumulative points at the end of the year.

(ESPN did not feel the need to rank more than 15 kickers on its cheat sheet.) If you sleep on QBs in your draft and come away with the 12th- or 14th-best quarterback in terms of fantasy points per game—Russell Wilson and Philip Rivers last season—you’ll be fine. I’m proud to be a charter member and look forward to all of the new additions to our, “The Players Championship”. No skill is involved; just numbers. There is no good reason for this.

How have we accepted a fantasy landscape in which having the GOAT QB is less significant than picking the correct platoon running back? I’m proposing the all-superflex league because I think fantasy football has grown too formulaic. And guess what: I won that week. It was the happiest that fantasy football made me all season. And yet few of us put much thought into seriously altering the settings of our leagues.
