Kevin Wilson Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Another year, so a new general thread is needed as drafts begin. I mean its crazy early for drafts but I know some leagues for whatever reason draft while preseason is still going on. If you are in the DVDVR Paid League, I already re-started it with the same participants as last year as its just easier that way so when you log into Yahoo it should be there. If you don't want to play this year just let me know and I'll remove you so someone else can join, the $25 fee is needed by August 15th ideally, normal way to pay, I'll send out reminders a few days before. I feel the need to point out that I have won the last two years so I hope that you guys bring your best this year, I'm getting kind of bored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I'm 95% sure I'll rejoin this year. Any changes to rules or scoring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, except I am going to find some 'recommended settings' online somewhere to tweak the defensive points. I wanted to get rid of the TE position since 95% of TEs suck and we have TE in the flex but was told not to do that so I didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Yeah - keep the TE I mean 95% of RBs suck too and we have two of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 My man Evan Engram going to be part of that 5% that doesn't suck. My other man Tyler Eifert also going to be part of that 5% for, oh, maybe 3 games until he's hurt again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 In the DVDVR Paid League we could add a $25 prize for 3rd place so if you lose in the Semi Finals both teams have something to fight for that last week. $200 for 1st $50 for 2nd $25 for 3rd and $25 for winner of the loser's bracket. Also standard yahoo leagues now use our .5 PPR in their scoring. 2 hours ago, Kevin Wilson said: Nah, except I am going to find some 'recommended settings' online somewhere to tweak the defensive points.

Solo Tackle= 1 point works the main thing is figuring points for Sacks, INTs and FFs/FRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to dilute the top prize any more than I already have since I want the overall winner (ie me) to get a meaningful amount of money, if it was a higher pay league I'd be open to giving a prize for 3rd but I have enough trouble as it is collecting $25 from people I only added a prize for the consolation bracket winner to keep people engaged/caring longer which I think has worked pretty well so far. For Defensive Points, I didn't do anything too drastic but I did add TFL and assisted tackles since that seems to be standard, I upped the "force fumble" up one and upped the "pass deflections" up .5. I didn't do everything I found recommended as I didn't want to jump it up too much but it should get the defensive points more in line with other positions so every week it isn't a bunch of players in the 5 to 8 point range like it has been.

Justin877 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Had my first draft for the only league (so far), a 12 team league, that I will be playing in. This is what I got: QB - Brees (NO), Prescott(DAL) RB - Fournette (JAX), Collins(BAL) , Ingram (NO), Carson (SEA), Crowell (NYJ), Yeldon (JAX) WR - Thomas (NO), Jeffrey (PHI), Saunders (DEN), Moore (CAR) TE - Howard (TB) K- Bryant (ATL) D - Patriots, Saints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerMark Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 First time I've drafted in a few years, between an attack of anxiety and a funeral for a cat. 14 team league, 4 on the bench. Went Super No RB for five rounds, which may prove to be my undoing. QB: Wilson (SEA). RB: Coleman (ATL), Johnson (CLE), Carson (SEA), Anderson (DEN). WR: Jones (ATL), Allen (LAC), Hilton (IND), Enunwa (NYJ), Ginn (NO). TE: Ertz (PHI). K: Lutz (NO). DST: Chicago (?) Antonio Brown went 9th, second WR picked behind Mike Evans at 5th. Might be the same guy who picked the Seahawks D in the first round one year, so I guess that's an improvement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Depending on what other QBs are on the wire Bortles and Booker depending on the other RBs. Depending on what happens with McCoy then Miller would become your RB2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 This is way last minute, but would anyone have interest in joining a 10 to 12 team dynasty league? My friend's idiot brother who was the commish of our 2QB league up and decided to not do it again so now I'm left without a league and I've wanted to do a dynasty league for years now. If I get the players then I get them, if not then I'll plan for next year. I'm looking at a $25 buy in for this year with probably an increase for next year.

Super reminder - if you can't make it, if you can at least remove injured people like McKinnon from your draft pool as I dunno if Yahoo will be smart enough to do it.

Elsalvajeloco Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 If anyone is interested in joining one more league, there is one spot open in the other league I'm a part of. The leagues dues are $25 and we draft tomorrow at 8:45 p.m. ET. You can pay the dues later. https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/873503 If you can't join using the URL, just PM me your email address and I will forward it to the league commissioner so he can send the invite.

The IDP still remain garbage however. I shall be in the draft as long as Tropical Storm Gordon doesn't knock out my power or internet in the next several hours.

Craig H Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 In one of my leagues, I drafted Amari Cooper for the third year in a row. That first year he was good to me. Last year he flat out sucked. He had all the hype in the world this season and sounded like he was going to get fed. By fed I didn't think Gruden and others meant something lower than table scraps. 3 fucking targets? Once again, I fell for the Cooper trap.

ivpvideos Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Two QB league, I picked up Matt Ryan and Eli Manning late. Didn’t want to play Eli against the Jaguars. Had a choice between Joe flacco Ryan fitzpatrick Sam Bradford Sam Darnold. guess which one I picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
