Re: Draft preparation question
I create my own ranking. What I typically do is take rankings from at least 3 sites I trust and put then into Excel and then create a "average" ranking. The thing I'm then looking for is outlyers. In other words, why does just one site have a guy much higher then the other two? Or much low...

Re: Draft coverage only on NFL Network
I cut the cord first of the year so I don't have either NFLN or ESPN. No problem, I'll get by. My friends and I gather at a bar for the draft anyway since the bar features the draft on almost all TVs and the audio is up, it's a big bar night around here. I'll miss Thursday and Monday night football...

Re: Draft coverage only on NFL Network
Unless you are putting that in savings to get into more dynasty leagues I don't agree! lol jk LOL Yea, we figured we were paying that much for about 3 channels we can't get for free with an antenna and most of the shows on those channels are available streaming on Hulu or Netflix. We'll save the mo...

Re: Thoughts on Timing and Timer of rookie drafts?
All my dynasty leagues have their rookie drafts starting the Saturday after the NFL draft (May 4th this year). I'd suggest no later then the 2nd Saturday after the NFL draft, that way you can get it wrapped up before Memorial Day vacations and school letting out when many guys are out of touch for m...

Re: Fixing a Loophole in my rules.
Also sounds like you need a higher "minimum" bid for the franchise player, making it more expensive. I'm in a similar league with 5 year max contracts and a salary cap. Each year a player gets a 10% raise. Once the contract runs out the player can be either released or franchised with 1 of...

Re: Best Time For Rookie Draft?
The auction angle is troubling for me. In my auction dynasty, our auction was before the supplemental draft, so Gordon ended up on blind bid waivers. On the one hand, it might actually make MORE sense to have all rookies be included in an auction (rookie auction??), but it seems odd to have most ro...

Re: Best Time For Rookie Draft?
My preference is to have it after the NFL supplemental draft. That way, if you have a player coming out late, like Josh Gordon did last year, he will be included in the rookie draft, and not be awarded to the team who is abritrarily at the top of the waiver wire week one of the season, or who gets ...

Re: help the new guy?
Agreed. I've also never been a big DJax fan. Bush has actually been healthy the past couple years and done pretty well. He'll get every opportunity in Detroit, especially in PPR. If you got a guy that's hot for DJax I'd take Bush (especially since you're playing for this year) and see if you can get...

Re: Should I take it?
Hmmm...well if you feel you are rebuilding I think I might take a long look that deal. You're cashing in somewhat on Welker hype and while I think he can have another couple good years I think he's slowing down some and having some injuries as well. Most likely I'd probably counter to try to pick up...

Re: Best Time For Rookie Draft?
Both of mine are a week or two after the NFL draft. And frankly that's where I'd want it. Most of the guys in these leagues (including myself) have various local leagues we are in that are in full draft mode mid to late August. I'd hate to mix that up with rookie drafts from Dynasty leagues. One of ...

Re: Which side got the better end?
If it's a straight up dynasty I *love* the trade for team B getting Marshall and a 1st rounder for old man Brady. Marshall is right in his prime and 1.09 should net him a decent prospect or he can turn that pick around into an upgrade at QB (or another position) or push it to a 2014 1st rounder to a...

Re: New Owners
Yea, the dispersal drafts I've seen you list out all the players *and* all the picks and the two teams would draft among that pool in 2 pick rounds. So say it's round 4 a team could draft Roddy White or the 1.01 pick. Two rounds later the same team could draft 1.08 pick if the other hasn't taken it ...

Re: Take Lattimore @ 1.5?
I got 1.04 in one league I took over and I'm looking at a similar thing, deep at WR but hardly nothing at RB. Normally I'd just take the talent at WR but the RB need is great. Sit on him and see what happens. I dunno.
