Our salary cap Auction Leage is implementing IDPs this year. We will add 3 players to our starting roster a DE/DT, S/CB, or FLEX (includes LB).
Scoring system:
Tackle: 1 point
Sack: 2 points
Interception: 2 points
TD scored: 6 points
Pass Defended: 1 point
Forced Fumble: 2 points
Fumble Recovered: 2 points
Safety: 2 points
I know nothing about the IDP side of fantasy. Upon first glance, it looks like there are a lot of names that will score between 8-12 points a game, where most points being scored come from tackles in this scoring system.
For those of you that know IDP, Which players or systems should I be targeting that will likely fly under the radar and still produce in the top 10 at their position?
I don’t want to spend a lot of my cap on big name defensive players if there are guys that can get me similar points that will be lesser known and much cheaper.

You want edge rushers who get sacks. Typically DE>DT and S>CB. (My own opinion)
Listed above are proven IDP players as well as young guns who looked great this past season.

Re: IDP startup bonanza
That's definitely tackle-centric scoring, so you're on the right track. You will for sure want a LB for your flex spot, will definitely want a S over any CB (look for SS, not FS), and probably a DE over a DT (unless you're at the back end of DEs, then the top couple of DTs start becoming worthwhile).
Given the extremely shallow starting requirements, worthwhile players will likely be available on the wire, so just shoot for super cheap players and use your salary cap on offense.

A top tackle machine you can get probably on the cheap or late is Deion Jones. Keanu Neal who was previously mentioned would also fall into that category too.

Re: IDP startup bonanza
1. There’s a forum section for IDP, you should post this there.
2. Your scorinh really isn’t that much compared to most IDP leagues.
3. You only have to start three IDP.
4. Because of 2 and 3, I wouldn’t worry about it. There will be plenty of players to choose from. Shouldn’t really make that big of a difference.
5. Only exception is that you will want studs. In shallow settings with limited starting spots, the more studs the better.
Good luck.

Re: IDP startup bonanza
This. You will be looking for MLB's who do not leave the field and you should NEVER have to play a CB or DT in this format. It is important to note that you have EXTREMELY shallow IDP starting requirements and VERY modest scoring so I would absolutely not overspend on IDP whatsoever. You will absolutely be able to find viable players on waivers throughout the year so I can't express to you more to spend your money on Offense. The ONLY position that may offer you ANY kind of advantage with these settings would be an elite DE like Hunter or Donald who offer you a solid tackle floor, yet are also threats for big sack numbers. But again, I can't emphasize enough that while it's awesome that your league is spreading it's wings and delving into it, your settings just don't justify any real investment into IDP. That being said, once I tried IDP, I never went back. I have 14 leagues and none of them are offense only.

Re: IDP startup bonanza
That scoring system is pretty much insignificant. As the previous poster mentioned you should only play LBs and LeightonVander Esch is near the top for me. I prefer a scoring system where DT and DE get more points per tackle than a LB. I would not spend any cap space of draft capital to acquire IDPs. I’m sure your league will learn from this scoring and alter it.
Re: IDP startup bonanza
great stuff guys. Only 1 person in the league has played IDP before and he had to convince the majority of us of us to give it a try and he succeeded. Scoring could definitely be altered after the season, i just dont want to make a mistake of signing someone for a significant amount my cap. A Stud RB goes for around 25mil per year or 10-15% of the cap.
so what i am gathering is spend minimal amounts of money. we can sign players to 1-4 year contracts. would you recommend locking players up for multi year contracts on the cheap or just taking it year by year?

Re: IDP startup bonanza
Year by year based on your limited scoring and limited starting positions. Also because your league should alter the IDP settings after this year. There are some exceptions though, there are some good young LB's, like Darius Leonard, and Vander Esch, that I would sign to a long term deal for sure.Nimrod wrote: ↑Fri Feb 01, 2019 5:53 am great stuff guys.

For most others I would wait until you get your scoring and starting requirements set for good before making long term deals.

Re: IDP startup bonanza
With your IDP scoring I would only pay the minimum for these guys. And you will be able to find guys on the waiver wire too because IDP is violative year to year. Every year there are new guys that show up.
