Yes very . Can’t see anything but an NFC Super Bowl win imo .
I'd say the AFC is competitive but not necessarily bad. Chiefs hung with the Rams. Ravens and Steelers were both close against the Saints. Patriots beat the Bears. Houston beat the Cowboys although that was before Dallas made some very important changes. San Diego won in Seattle and KC was competitive. Unless the 6 seed gets to the Super Bowl from the AFC I'd expect it to be a cracking game.
 

Shameless beg on my dynasty FFL team; I need to make cuts so give me some advice. We roster 23 (plus 4 IR) but we cut down to 19 before the draft. I have 26 currently so I need to cut 3 then 4 more later. I'll cut my K and two more, just not yet sure which to cut now (although probably at least 1 QB). I'm very tempted to cut McCoy, but I'm certain if I do then the Bills will trade him and he'll turn out a monster year in 2019.

QB
Andrew Luck, Dak Prescott, Josh Rosen, Nick Foles, Nick Mullens

RB
Tarik Cohen, Chris Carson, TJ Yeldon, Kalen Ballenge, Gus Edwards, Austin Ekeler, LeSean McCoy

WR
Deandre Hopkins, Tyreek Hill, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Corey Davis, DeVante Parker, Geronimo Allison

TE
Jimmy Graham, Jordan Reed, Gerald Everett

DST
Jaguars, Chargers, Bills

K
Gostkowski

I've never played dynasty, so I can only speculate that the strategy is to hope to luck out on a couple of relatively unknowns. I can only offer my views on a few players here.

Carson's long term output for me remains somewhat risky. He looks like a beast though, that's for sure. Seattle having spent a 1st rounder on Penny, and his progress throughout the season tells me that when healthy, he and Carson could conceivably be a 50/50 split. On a positive for Carson Pete Carroll has signed an extension, and I would expect at least as much focus on running going forward.

I don't rate Rosen at all. I thought he was vastly overrated at UCLA. A crappier version of Jeff George.

Mullins is an interesting one. Has been pretty impressive. Jimmy G signed that big contract though so he won't be starting for the 49ers anytime soon.

Jimmy Graham could be finished. Guess we'll see what a new HC does in GB next season.

I like your WR's btw. Seems like a deep group.

Anywho that's my 2 cents.

Dynasty, at least the way we play it, is Keeper rules on roids. You can keep a player as long as you like, and you can keep as many as 19 (and roster 23), so you can hold a guy for a while. Just don't make mistakes on talent and cut guys like Breida and Kittle too early (someone to remain unnamed cut them last year) and you'll be ok. For me it's a lot less trouble keeping up with redraft, which changes year to year. And in a down year at least I can look forward to good draft picks (if you pick #1, you get all picks #1, like the NFL draft)

Back on topic, I think Graham and McCoy are both probably done, but I'm also thin at both TE and RB so I'm not brave enough to cut them both. And with a rejuvenated Rodgers or a new team/scheme for McCoy, both could be top-10 next year if healthy, so who knows. Mullins is interesting and if he starts next year over Jimmy G, he could be very good. Foles is in the same position (or either can get traded), so I'm not sure what I will do. And after rolling with Eli and an injured Luck for a full year, I am not cutting QB depth too quickly. Gostkowski will go and I can redraft him, so there's no risk there.

I don't really like D Parker but he could be good, and I think Geronimo and Everett both have talent so I want to hold them, so... a defense, and Gostkowski, and... ?

Oh, and we have a rule that offseason you can't trade until you have 19 or fewer players so I can't dump talent with trades...
