Yankshater will be the first to tell you that this isn't a fantasy draft. Read the title of the thread. ;)

 

If this were a solely fantasy draft, then defense wouldn't count and Yankees228 would plummet in the standings. (No offense Y228, it's just that you have a team built around a great defense, and in a conventional fantasy draft that wouldn't help you

 

Again, everything will be explained to you in the matchup thread. There are too many coinciding things for this to be a coincidence, and just because things didn't go your way doesn't mean that you got screwed. For example, I don't think that anybody got screwed in the NBA redraft, and I think that there was only 1 case of someone really getting screwed in the MLB redraft, which granted I'm biased because I thought it was me.

It depends. They do count' date=' but I am NOT holding injuries against a person who drafted the player BEFORE they got injured. However, if a player was injured BEFORE they got drafted, then I'd take that into consideration (ie Bob Sanders and Kris Jenkins)[/quote']

 

Aren't we voting to which team is most likely the best 3 years down the road? Why would recent injuries affect that?

13th is 3rd to last

 

 

We weren't supposed to put our own teams in the power rankings. Meaning that with 15 teams, ones power rankings would be ranking the OTHER 14 teams. Meaning that 13th would be 2nd to last.

We are, but Kris Jenkins has had ACL tears in BOTH knees over the past 2 years and has played very little because of it. That, combining with his age, looks really bad for the future. Granted, I didn't deduct much because he was one of your bench players, but it might hurt you in a really close matchup. Again, this is all my opinion, it's not that I wrote the book on redrafts or redraft voting and that everyone HAS to think the same way I do. This was my thought process and how I decided things. I don't want anyone to think that I think I'm the best at this or that I'm the only one that knows what he's talking about.

Well suns' date=' focus on coming up with a great game plan against TK's team.[/quote']

 

Should be easy

EVERYONE TAKE NOTE:

 

Voting starts at 8am Monday. Everyone with a first round matchup should go to their thread and explain why they think they have the better team or will win in a matchup vs. the other team. NOBODY is allowed to vote for their own team, and voters should not vote until BOTH teams have said something regarding the matchup (or in this case, until Monday morning)

Granted, a lot of these a tough to decide in terms of rankings, so I can understand giving Suns a little wiggle room, but even with the benefit of the doubt I don't see Suns being better than 11th-12th overall.

 

And to be honest, I was a little surprised myself to be first. I mean I thought that there were 3-4 top teams that distanced themselves from the pack, and that I was one of them, but I didn't think that I was necessarily the top team. Who knows, I highly doubt that ALL of the voting will be with the power rankings, so wherever you were ranked doesn't mean that you are going to do well or poorly in the voting, so I wouldn't take anything personally until AFTER the voting has taken place.

I was hoping for #5, but anyways, I thought Divinity would be a top team, his offense is pretty stacked

Like the NBA draft, there were a lot of good teams that were reasonably close togther. I think the only way we're going to see who has a better team is by voting on them in the matchups. This is just a rough estimate by MOST of the voters. And for the record, I had you and Divinity a couple of spots higher.

 

I also sent one of my friends the rosters (without telling him which team was mine) and when he gives me his idea of the powerrankings I'll post them. Not that it matters but it's another set of eyes.
