Re: OT: Fantasy Football League
 

I agree with Kodiak on the TE's. If you really want to have a TE position, don't have more than one!
Otherwise the list is acceptable to me...Greybeard

Re: OT: Fantasy Football League
 

My recommendations, FWIW...

QB
RB
WR
WR
WR/RB
WR/TE
K
DEF

I think having 2 RB's with an option for a third gives far too much of an advantage to a team with three strong backs.
As far as TEs, they annoy me. 3 or 4 great ones and then the rest. I like the option to either start one or use a WR instead, since a marginal WR will almost always outscore a good TE.

My opinion
QB

TE
K

Re: OT: Fantasy Football League
 

Given that we are having a live draft and only 8 teams so far, I believe that the rosters should go as suggested by Kodiak - QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 WR/RB, 1 WR/TE, 1 K, 1 DT and 8-10? bench players.
The point made about people starting 3 RBs isn't as valid with a shallow league. 32 NFL teams and 3-4 RBs per fantasy roster = 24-32. If you don't get that 3rd back, you just draft another WR earlier (our league draft 6-7 WR/team, total 48-56, NFL rosters 32 teams x 2-3 = 64-96). I could argue that there are at least 8 decent TE but would rather they be optional as suggested. Absolutely no more than 1 listed as a starter for sure.

*Bump* Draft is in 13 days. If anyone else wants to join feel free to do so. We currently have 8 in the league and plenty of room for more. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Ok, I changed the starting positions finally. It is now as follows:
1 QB
3 WR
1 RB
1 WR/RB
1 WR/TE
1 K
1 DEF
10 Bench

Is the bench level too high? I put it there so that you can have a backup of every position if so desired, plus 1 extra spot.

Ok, just a little over a week until the draft. If anyone else is interested in joining you better do so quick.

Information regarding league password and so forth is in this thread.
Or I could just quote myself... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: OT: Fantasy Football League
 

Looks like we have 9 now. I have a friend who might be interested in joining to make it an even 10, unless anyone objects.

Re: OT: Fantasy Football League
 

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">No, that is fine with me. Draft is Monday night so better hurry up. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: OT: Fantasy Football League
 

Well, it doesn't look like I was able to get anyone. I tried a couple of friends, but one guy was unable to make the draft, and the other never replied to my email. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif
