His Standard team is doing all right. I just don't think he had any grasp of how a dynasty league worked, as the team he drafted was basically a redraft team with zero long-term upside. That's fine in redraft, but it leaves you fucked in short order in dynasty, especially if injuries derail your inaugural season.
In my pay dynasty league, my team was ravaged by injuries in year one last year and I finished worst in the league as a result, but it didn't really leave me in bad shape at the end of the year because my entire team was young.
Just to give you an idea, if my team were at full health right now with no one injured or on bye, my starter ages are:
Aaron Rodgers - 33
Melvin Gordon - 24
David Johnson - 25
DeAndre Hopkins - 25
Keenan Allen - 25
Adam Thielen - 27
Evan Engram - 23
Jake Elliot - 22
Landon Collins - 23
DeForest Buckner - 23
Zach Brown - 28
The problem sportscoach ran into is that he has so little margin for error because all of his starters are over thirty, whereas a team like mine above has potentially another five years with the same roster, provided no one washes out of the league. And on my bench I've got guys like Corey Davis (22), Duke Johnson (24), JuJu Smith-Schuster (20!), Jordan Matthews (25), Austin Hooper (22), Josh Doctson (24), etc., along with older veterans like DeSean Jackson, Doug Martin, and Delanie Walker (who would probably be my starting TE if Engram hadn't found his way into a massive target volume due to injuries).
I did a lot of dealing over the summer and early weeks of the season to try to add some guys to my bench that could give me points if I needed them, and that has definitely paid off, as it's something I largely didn't have last year.
Sportscoach, on the other hand, is running a team mostly full of starters 30 and over and largely lacks upside guys on his bench. He has a lot of good IDP players, but his skill positions are mostly on the back ends of their careers.
