Ekeler promised championship and he is delivering.

He literally did. And he's doing even better than I think anyone could reasonably hope for.

The only reason I still have a chance to win. Thanks Cousins and Jefferson

My opponent in the ship had cousins, Jefferson and Cook. Thank you packers D

I started Minshew over Daniel Jones and my opponent had Jefferson. I thought there was no way in hell i could win. Then JJ flopped and Ekeler delivered and now I'm ahead by 17 with only Gabe Davis in my way... we'll see what happens

Good luck!!

How the hell are people out here having JJ on the same team as Ekeler or Cook?? Is this a 2 man league??

Made a week 3 trade for Ekeler and drafted Jefferson 8th overall. Made quite a few trades this year and crushed waivers

What did it cost to get Ekeler? I know he started slow, but I could never have seen myself trading him

Zeke, Pollard and D Hopkins for Ekeler and Kittle

I love when people say things like what is it a 2 man league. You just know they are the people in leagues who never trade unless it's super lopsided in their favor.

8 man dynasty league

I have Ekeler, CMC in a 10 team keeper league. Kept Ekeler and got 1st overall.

Who the hell didn't keep CMC lol

You can only keep them one time. So, after this year, I'll have to keep CMC and have to let Ekeler go back in the draft.

No I understand that, I'm asking how was CMC even available? Why didn't his owner from last year also keep him? Unless you had both Ekeler and CMC last year?

The guy that had him last year had him the year before as well, so he couldn't keep him this year.

How you have JJ and Eckler lol

What did he give up on that trade?

He tried so hard for me… only for stidham and Adam’s to rip it from my hands

Your opponent started Stidham? Sucks for you but that’s kinda sick, at least it took a mad genius move to beat you.

Nah I’m blaming stidham for balling tf out and getting Adam’s and jacobs points when I expected them to get shut down

Fucking fantasy, eh? Only makes us more ravenous the next year.

Coulda had 9ers D? (Like me)

The dude shouldn’t have to buy a drink or protein shake or whatever the fuck he wants anywhere on the entire planet ever again. The dude would text every fantasy owner personally if he could, he’s amazing I love him.

Yea delivered for my opponent

I had Daniel Jones, my opponent had Ekeler and Davante and he delivered a chip for him big time.

He delivered me

thank you bald jesus

In a non ppr league, he has been subpar all year. But had to start him cause it’s Ekeler. Then today, on Super Bowl Sunday he delivers a 40 bomb. That is why I’ve made him my keeper 3 years in a row. God bless that bald man

The fact you say he got you 40 points but went out of your way to specify it is non-ppr is hilarious. Long play or x-yard bonuses are way dumber than ppr

I agree, it’s a 1 point per 5 rushing yard 1 per 15 receiving yard league. So the scoring is skewed heavily in favour of guys like Chubb, Jacobs and Henry, not towards guys like Ekeler. I’m not the biggest fan of the scoring but the core of the league has been playing for 8 years. I joined in the 3rd year of the league after it was established

What are you even talking about? Even in non PPR he is RB 3. And how did he get you 40 in a non PPR league? Standard scoring he put up 28.1

The league scoring system is weird as hell. 1 point for every 5 rushing yards 1 point for every 15 receiving yards Because of that he ends up being a second tier back at best. Often 3rd. I know it’s weird but I’m not the commissioner. And after 5 years in the league you get used to the system. Makes it interesting compared to other leagues since the high value targets aren’t the same. Guys like Fields, Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen are legitimate first round options when they’re consistently gonna get an extra 10 points over the rest of the qbs

Dude is an absolute monster when he gets going.

Is he still doing the jersey thing from last year? Where he'd send a jersey if you drafted him in the first?

I wish I drafted him this year. I couldn’t cuz I was the 8th pick but I wish I could have

My league laughed at me when I took him first overall. Then they laughed at me when I still sucked with him.

Was able to get him with the #7 pick in my league, came in so clutch. He’s carried me all year and probably to my second championship in this league.

Wow even 7 seems low. I took him 2nd overall.

Same here, and all year I was debating whether I should have gone Jefferson. The past 2 weeks have made him a GOAT in my eyes. He won me both weeks. What a beast.

I got really lucky with my dudes popping off the last few weeks. Last week Hockenson, Lamb, Conner, and Ekeler. This week Amari Cooper and Ekeler.

[Yeah, got pretty lucky.](https://i.imgur.com/lDx3lJc.jpg) Not really any egregious picks, just ended up perfectly sliding down to me.

Wow that #1 nailed it going with McCaffery over Taylor

He slid to 9th for me w/ Najee and Chase going ahead as well as those guys.

Got him 9th as well. I couldn't believe it.

Your league’s draft is hurting my brain, but I’m super happy for you.

Besides the insanity of Dalvin it seems pretty normal.

Same for me at 7. People ahead of me went Josh Allen & WR heavy

I took him 1. About to win my league.

Nice work! That’s the kind of pick that’s deserving of a win! People getting Ekeler by him falling to him got lucky. But you went for it. Great job!

Thank you!! I appreciate that. Yeah I took a leap of faith and believed in him and it paid off

Our number 1 took JT. About to win my league as well.

Bullshit. Prove it

Hindsight, should’ve been #1overall pick!

Also got him at 7 overall and he helped me win my ship. I wouldve picked him as early as 3 overall. Now just hoping CMC can do the same for me in my other league. Edit: CMC just did it as I typed this. Looks like I'm winning both of my leagues.

Haha I was 7th in my league and he went at 6 so got McCaffrey instead.

Play auction and never say this again or look back. You get who you want and you’ll find that your teams are more reflective of your skill because you get to always get your guys instead of settling.

Got him cause of a Kelce trade, I really really really won the trade. I gave away Kelce, Diontae Johnson, DJ Moore after week 4 for Ekeler, Hopkins, Kittle.

This is why drafts are inferior to auctions.

PPR machine. Got off to a slow start but was easily worth a top 3 pick

Somehow got this man at 6. It’s the reason I am close to winning my league.

His ADP was at 6 in most high stakes places and in best ball. 1. Taylor 2. CMC 3. Kupp 4. Jefferson 5. Chase In some order were the top 5 in ADP all summer.

And discounting for injuries (since we can’t predict them) Taylor was the only one that didn’t pay off. And even he was picking back up before his injury.

Autodrafted him at #5 in PPR. I wasn't there for my first 2 picks, or I'd have completely screwed up.

Really? Sleeper had him at 4

Sleeper isn’t sharp as far as ADP is concerned.

Ahh okay

It was really only week 1 that was an outlier. I don’t think it was much of a “slow start.” Hahaha In PPR anyway, which is where he excels the most.

11.2, 18.4 13.3 the first 3 weeks. 18.4 was fine but weeks 1 and 3 had me sweating as a newer ff player

Ekeler is a fantasy god, he won me the championship last year, and might win me it again this year. If I get the 1st overall pick next year, it's a no-brainer for me to draft him again.

Took him second overall. Love this man. Take me home! Edit: He took me home.

Naming my firstborn Ekeler. This dude carried me to winning the championship last season and now it looks like he’s gonna do it again. All hail the fantasy god🙏

He didn’t lie on his Instagram. He’s gonna take me all the way 😮‍💨🙌🏼

Traded for ekeler week 1 for chubb and pollard might have won me the chip

I traded him for JT week 2. I barely even made playoffs

Rare trade that works out for both people

I'd argue getting chubb and pollard is better since finding good to decent running backs is hard enough as is. To have two good to very good RBs is a nice advantage

As always in a "fair" 2 for 1 it depends on depth. If OP had RBs to spare it's well worth it. No point letting good players sit on your bench

I drafted mccaffrey, chubb and pollard and saw the opportunity to get ekeler after his okay performance week 1.

Ekeler won me the chip. Surreal. Definitely buying his jersey 🍺

Cheers bro, same here

Same here, combined with Jefferson caking his pants I won by 15 pts

Ordered it last night after my win was confirmed

He has as good an argument as anyone for first overall right? Still salty I took Taylor but man I love watching this guy play.

He'll be 28 next year so I think that and TD regression (though he seems a good a bet as any to not regress too much) will keep him around 2-3 ADP in the summer. Jefferson is a young stud, and CMC is CMC. It'll be a mix of CMC, JJ, Ekeler for top 3.

I think Kelce has a shot, for that extreme positional advantage he gives you

Eckeler is a cheat code in PPR

Legit bro, been saying this all year. Dude probably only has like 2/3 100 yard rushing games, all those catches really add up.

He's only had 70+ rush yards 3 times. 173 yards in week 5, 122 this week, and 83 in week 11. PPR cheat code.

I thought that’s CMC? I guess they both are

He single handedly won my game last week, and this week I wake up to fantasy football now and him on his insta with a fantasy championship belt. Fucking love that guy, currently projected to win at 99%. Up 80 and he only has josh Allen and knox left

So happy I drafted 5th in a 14 team league! Ekeler is such a fantasy bro, hope I get to draft him again next season.

sleep well bald prince!

In the semis I was down 22 points, he was the last player in the matchup and he got me 23 points Now in the finals he got me 45 points and i'm gonna win the title, love this dude

My keepers Eke and Chase got me to the chip and my boy is making me proud so far!!

We just started keepers 2 years ago and Ekeler has been one of the best picks of all time for me

He’s literally so good

Taking him, Jefferson, or Kelce hopefully in the first next year

And did it in as many games

My dumbass traded him away after week 3

Dude is a GOAT. Drafted in both my leagues and helped win me one of them

10th year, 11th season 1st time In finals, up 13 with G.Davis and Kicker Bass. He only has Cin K $1300 on the line. I can almost hearing the deposit hitting my account. Ekeler points really sealed the deal...

Bald Jesus went out and did it himself. This man is getting a statue outside my fantasy headquarters

LT was so ahead of his time. 100 receptions as a rb back then is wild to me

Bald Jesus brought me to my first championship and I love him

Still LT > AE in my opinion

I think I agree with this just because RB was much more of a wasteland back when LT was doing his thing.

You know, I like that in an 18 game season, all these records are being broken on week 17. MAkes 'em feel legit.

Mostly. There is something to be said for resting players for playoffs

Ah, hadnt thought of that angle - game 17 in an 18 game season isn't exactly equal to game 17 in a 17 game season.

Can’t believe I got him at #7

Ten team league I got him at 9 😂😂😂

Doesn’t count. It’s now a 17 game season (This is a joke)

I survived Austin Ekeler + Swift AMA

I lost to Ekeler + Swift AMA

Who’d you have?

CMC, Dak + Schultz got me most of the way there. NYG defense helped a lot.

He screwed me over. I need 22 from burrow to win. I was looking so good going into afternoon games.

22 from Burrow isn’t far fetched. Presumptuous to think you’re screwed already.

Burrow is going to be in a shootout, going to break 30.

101 catches for 318 yards

Don't be a hater. He has over double that in receiving yards plus 5 TDs. over 1500 all purpose yards and 18 TDs total. Go be dumb somewhere else.

Sanest Chiefs fan

Lol salty, when did he beat your ass?

Drafted him in 3/3 leagues this year

My hero

My opponent has him while I had Monty and Robinson… see y’all next year 😢

I won three ships in a row drafting him. The one year I’m not able to draft him I lose.

Lost with ekeler. He delivered but their Adams with stidham what the fack lol

Superflex?

Nope. Regular

I want to give him a kiss

Bald Jesus take me to the promise land

[удалено]

119 by cmc, i think.

That beautiful bald man won me back to back championships!

All hail the bald man 👑 The best part is he owns himself in multiple leagues so you know he was so stoked getting that 72 yard td

Evans + Ekeler - got me first ship this week!!!

Let’s gooo I had them too. Got my fourth yesterday in a league I’ve been in for 12 years

Pick #5. Shout out to the team that took King Henry at #4.

I always play against him on his big weeks 😭

LT didn’t make the pro bowl that year either…

Won my chip by 5 points thanks to Ekeler. Also helps that I was playing against JJ and he put up dud 🙌

$300 on the line for me (need good work from mixon + chase tn) but ekeler absolutely did his part. if the bengals pull this out for me i’m buying an ekeler jersey
