took a gamble on ron dayne and patrick crayton because harrison and addai were out, dayne did decent and got me a TD plus a few points, we'll see how crayton does, but wow I got trounced... that brady/watson/pats defense combo straight up killed me.

Yahoo default scoring doesn't let you sleep on getting a good D. And, the offensive scoring is TD dominated with the yardage points coming at 20 yd and 50 yd increments instead of the 10/25 you get on ESPN and other places.

Ya kind of weird...a short yardage back in on a couple plays on the goal line can kill a back who plays the whole game and gets 90 yards. Touchdowns are important, but it would be nice for a little more points for yards gained.

 

just my $.02

I agree completely. The workhorse between the 20's gets no love in Yahoo, and the vultures make the game hard to manage.

 

I'm playing ESPN for the first time this year for the heck of it (this is only my second year of fantasy sports) and their default scoring is interesting. They have 10/25 increments for yardage points, and they only award the QB 4 for TD's thrown. That, to me, undervalues the QB performance, so the run on draft day was on RBs and WRs. They also have much lower point values for defensive performance.

 

I think a mix of the two would be ideal. Next year I think I'd like to be the commissioner of the league and customize the scoring to get the best of both worlds.

I'm looking to upgrade at QB. Cutler isn't getting it done for me and I think it is dicey to rely on Schaub all year.

 

Send me an offer for a solid QB...everyone's on the table.

I am in another league (this is my first year of fantasy) and they adjusted the scoring a little so that. I think it would be best to have what we do but just tweak it a little; 1 point per 10 rushing/receiving yards and 1point per 25passing. Something like that

You want Tony Romo?

Not a huge fan of Jeff Garcia...besides MB3 might be my saving grace at RB.

Send me an offer.

My team absolutely sucks and I'm not going anywhere anyway. I'm becoming a seller. If any of you want anyone on my team, send me an offer. I'll check it. I'm not going to accept an unbalanced trade though. That would be unfair to all of the other contenders.

I can change the scoring modifiers to 10/25 and make it retro active if you guys want.

Kind of tough to change mid-season since everyone drafted and has made moves in accordance with the scoring system. I'm not sure if I'm for it or against it. Let me think about it. If we do it, it should be by unanimous decision, IMO.
Posted
Nahh I was just spouting off. I personally don't think we should change em.

 

That's kind of what I figured. We drafted our teams based on those parameters. BTW the transaction info shows me changing the modifiers then changing them back. I just wanted to see if I could do it mid season.

Agreed.

If we do it midseason, which I would probably be against, even though my 2-3 team isn't benefitting from it, I think it should have to be unanimous. But if we change it for next season, then maybe majority vote or 2/3 maybe.

I have to share this trade from a keeper league I'm in on another message board...

 

This guy has the 49ers defense and they're on a bye, so he's desperate for a defense this week, so the idiot gets suckered into this trade...

 

Joseph Addai, Ben Watson, the 49ers defense, and the guy's 3rd round pick in next years draft for...

 

*drumroll*

 

The Dallas Cowboys defense. That's it.

 

Has there been a more lopsided trade ever?

Posted
Holy smokes. That's insane. How deep is the league? Gotta figure some team on waivers would get you through the week.
