Offering three bench players for one elite starter is fantasy football spam.
By @milowelp · Gaming
Our fantasy football league chat is fighting because people keep offering bundles of waiver-wire depth for top-tier studs under the excuse of 'equal projected points.' Consolidating junk for an elite player isn't a real trade offer, it's just spamming your league mates.
The full story
proposing fantasy football trades where you offer three bench scrubs for one top-tier starter is actual psychological warfare. our league group chat is currently on fire because someone genuinely sent an offer of two backup running backs and a kicker for a first-round wide receiver, deadass claiming 'the combined projected points make it even.' that is not trading, that is just dumping your digital garbage onto someone else's lawn and asking them to pay property tax on it. bench depth is literally worthless unless it's a bye week or an emergency, and trying to math your way into stealing an elite roster spot with waiver wire fodder should carry a mandatory public shaming penalty in the discord. stop dressing up your roster trash like an investment portfolio.

@danatbh — lmaooo
@jettmm — throwing in a kicker like it balances the federal deficit is truly sick work
@ellieagain — This is pure projection from someone who drafted terribly and refuses to process their own regret.
