OT: HF Wild Fantasy Football League

[this providence]

Welp, it's about that time of year so I figure I'll be the one who takes charge and starts/manages the league. Since I'm doing it, I'm going to throw out some dates that works for me. Along with several other options. If you're interested in playing in this league, fill in the options you prefer. We will then go with the majority.

If a date/time for a draft absolutely doesn't work for you, state so!

And hopefully with a big enough bench that we don't have the completely dead free agent pool we did last year, where we had to be prognosticators and strike gold to get anything of use.

Count me in, yahoo snake, prefer line-ups 2/3.

 

[Avder]

Add my vote for having flex be RB eligible as well.

 

[Wild48]

Gotta defend my title.

Ask and you shall receive, I guess. Count me in. See you all on the electronic gridiron.

 

[Jarick]

Oh yeah draft, I'll be out from like 8/29 through 9/7

 

[this providence]

I'm open to playing in a smaller league, if that's what it comes to, but I hope we can at least get to 10. Here's what we're at:

1. this providence
2. Avder
3. Jarick
4. Generic User
5. saywut
6. Wild48
7. MNman

8 is probably doable. Roster size (and starters) will likely be effected by the amount of teams we have.

If all we get is 8-10 teams, how would everyone feel about starting 2 QBs every week?

 

[elnewby]

Hey guys, I'm in if you still need people. I enjoyed it last year. I'm up for any scoring/draft system, so I will leave that decision up to you all.

 

[tyratoku]

If you guys still want another player I can join. No preferences on anything except I would like to stick with Yahoo.

I like the idea of expanding the roster with fewer league members, maybe:

QB, QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, WR, TE, Flex, K, D

Sure why not. Just make sure we have a big bench too.

Or is there an option for a QB/RB flex somewhere? I read some leagues somewhere have those...

 

[this providence]

Just need one more owner so we can set things in stone...

I'll take the 10th spot.

Not sure what we're going to do here yet. Too many variables at play...

With 10 teams total, I propose at starting line-up of:
OPTION 1

Otherwise, this will be our starting line-up:
OPTION 2

Please vote for which option you want and state whether a Wednesday draft would work for you. Thanks!

 

[TheSauceBoss]

One vote for roster option 2 and Wednesday works for me.

 

[tyratoku]

I'd vote for option 2 as well. That draft time is fine.

Option 2. Would be down for two QB's as suggested before as well. Wednesday works for me. Also would like a week 16 championship again, as a lot of starters don't play week 17, assuming their team has clinched a particular playoff spot.

 

[Avder]

Either lineup option will work for me. And Wednesday should be fine...I think.

 

[MNman]

Wednesday draft sounds fine to me.....and I'll vote option 1. I think it sounds fun to have a QB flex option, more options and variables at play. Also, I would suggest a smaller bench size (4 max) as it forces some tougher decisions on player movement.

If everyone has a huge bench, there is very little reason to make trades and the waiver wire looses a lot of its importance.

I'm all for expanding the starting line-up and keeping the bench small, it's just more fun/interesting that way.

 

[this providence]

I'll let voting be open until Monday around noon.

Everyone check their PMs today, I will be sending you league links soon.

That was the plan. It does create more movement in the league and there is generally still very viable players out there to be had on the waiver wire.

 

[Jarick]

Option 2, wednesday works fo rme.
