Anti-Fantasy Draft and Discussion Thread

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

With my next pick I'm going with someone who will give my offense a lot of versatility. If we learned anything from the Saints Super Bowl run, it's that the more people who can do more things on offense you have, the better.

 

The guy I'm taking isn't on that Saints team but possesses that same versatility that guy does.

 

Dexter McCluster, WR/KR/PR

 

Kilo I have Hester listed as a WR can I also put him as PR/KR as well?

 

Yes, they can be moved there. If someone else doesn't get to it I'll update tomorrrow.

 

 

Ive been eyeing Wake for about four rounds now I'm ecstatic he fell back to me. McCluster would have been gone by the time I picked again but there's actually a guy I liked better for his value at this point. Let's see if he comes back to me again.

 

This answer the question about being able to use WR as KR/PR as well?

[italstallianion]

I guess I don't get it then. If you have a player like Hester, Knox, Harvin, Mccluster, they can be USED as a WR and a KR/PR, but I don't think they can be DRAFTED as both. What I mean is, if you draft one of those WR's, then you should choose which position he will take on the table. If you put them in both spots, then that means you'd need one less player and can draft an extra bench player. My opinion is that if you draft the WR/KR/PR, that he can PLAY both for your team, but that he should only take one spot on the table, that way if you draft him as a WR, then you still have to draft a KR/PR, and if you draft him as a KR/PR, then you have to draft another WR.

[italstallianion]

Youker can make his pick if he's online.

[italstallianion]

We can also skip Youker, so WhiskeyBreath can make his pick.

so i cant play Cribbs at WR?

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Kilo did it so why can't you? Ital just doesn't like the idea which is understandable.

[italstallianion]

We're going to have to work it out. In MY opinion (keyword opinion) is that you can PLAY Cribbs at WR, but you drafted him as a KR/PR, which means that you'd still have to draft 4 WR's (not counting Cribbs) In other words, you can't claim Cribbs as your WR spot AND KR/PR spot in order to draft 3 bench players.

What if using a WR/KR/PR counts as 2 roster spots so you can't draft 3 bench players?

[italstallianion]

That was my opinion. I'm not going to make an official ruling until Kilo says something specifically addressing it. Otherwise I could just put Welker as my KR/PR and WR and then draft a 3rd bench player as a defensive guy.

 

The way I see it, a player can be DRAFTED into one slot. They can play other positions, but they can only be DRAFTED as one. So if you draft Knox as a WR, then you still have to draft a KR/PR, and if you draft Knox as a KR/PR, then you still have to draft 4 players as WR. Again, Kilo can decide the ruling, but it seems that using one player in two slots (different than in two positions) is kind of cheap.

[italstallianion]

You know what, screw it. If that is the way that you guys would like it, then I'm fine with it. I just want to make it clear that this is ok with you guys so that I can do it too.

[YanksHater213]

My word is what's going to be fact right about now (only cause of how I drafted my team).

 

You CAN use any guy you drafted at ANY position. If I wanted to use Wilfork at WR, so be it.

 

Let's throw the time machine on:

 

Let's say I drafted Dante Hall as my KR/PR. He would in fact be able to be my running back, but he was drafted into my KR/PR slot.

 

I drafted Sproles as my KR/PR, so I CAN use him as a RB too.

 

Hope this disspells any confusion. This is how this fraft is working.

I think that we all agree on that. The confusion, or the disagreement, would arise if you drafted Sproles as your KR/PR, and not only used him at RB, but used your backup RB pick on another bench player, penciling Sproles as 2 positions on the draft board.

 

We all think that you'd be able to use Sproles as a RB even if he's drafted as a KR/PR, but in my opinion (and where the others disagree) is that you would still have to draft a RB and a backup RB, even if Sproles is your KR/PR, whereas others would say that you can pencil in Sproles as your KR/PR and backup RB and then get another bench spot.

[YanksHater213]

Each player you draft represents one slot on your board. Once the draft is over you can use anyone wherever you want.

That's my opinion, but it seems like a lot of owners are using speedy WR's at multiple spots (ie Percy Harvin, Johnny Knox, Dexter McCluster as KR/PR and WR) so that they don't have to draft the other position and then get an extra bench spot. That is what I've been arguing against the entire time. You can use a player wherever you want, but you can't use one player as more than one pick/position in the draft. You summed it up well with one player = 1 spot on the board.

[YanksHater213]

Yes. There shouldn't be ANY argument. One player = one draft spot, no exceptions. If you want to draft Harvin as your 1st WR, f***ing QB, and cornerback, more power to you, but you don't get extra draft spots for doing that,period.

 

I know I'm not commissioner, but I've been active enough in this for what I say to be true.

Only because you agree with me.

[YanksHater213]

No. I don't care what you think. What I said is final, and if you don't like it, take up with Ital ().

 

Seriously though. If you disagree with this, and don't comply. Complain a bit more and die in a fire.

 

I'm going to go watch Lost, Dexter, or the Event or something.

[italstallianion]

Nice, I'm going to go to bed and think about RSFFL's girlfriend.

[YanksHater213]

Is she hot?

[italstallianion]

Not as hot as mine.

[YanksHater213]

I mean, this is inappropriate for this thread, but pics or you're probably being very biased.

[italstallianion]

Check the post a pic thread. Believe me, the pictures have been circulated.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

s*** I'll take your gf anytime over mine. Enjoy being with a 16 year old perv

[italstallianion]

Will do. Will do.

 

 

And to make this post on topic. Boston22407 is still up.

[yrtb]

I agree with this then

 

I thought ital meant there's no allowance of people in multiple spots. I think that you should just lose an extra pick if you want to use somebody in multiple spots. It this case, I just want Mariani at PR/KR, it's not like he plays receiver anyways

[YanksHater213]

Well, technically there is no allowance of people in multiple spots in terms of the drafting positions that are presented to us. But once the draft ends, multiples spots are more than allowed, in fact, if you want to do well, encouraged.

 

Once the draft ends, feel more than free to put your best inside linebacker at quarterback.

[italstallianion]

Boston22407 is still on the clock.

[italstallianion]

Yankees228 can make his pick at 11:33am, although I'm not sure if he should be allowed to pick at 10:33am because of daylight savings time.
