Ludke's Merry Men 5-3 Top 5 - 9 Weeks

Nico Collins is sorely missed. Getting him back will clear up a lot of the lineup indecision fatigue.

Cuban Refugees 5-3 Top 5 - 8 Weeks

Losing Diggs to a long term injury coupled with Deebo leaving every game worse off than before he entered it could have the Refugees poking around the trade market.

The WRs wouldn't start for another team in the league. Aceto has got to consider trading his 2025 first to capitalize on the big seasons Lamar and the RBs are having.

Not sure what's been harder for Kev this season. Listening to me complain about the MM or being 2-6.

Point Diff. -68

If you saw only the names on this team you'd guess they were 4-4. Then you look at the stats and you see most of them just aren't finding the endzone but are racking up yards.
