If I'm on the clock somebody can just pm me, I have the 5th pick and I already know who I'm taking.

Hey, is there an updated draft order?
I know this one was posted:
Quote:
1. Team CCB :: 0-12 :: 600 pts
2. Team Schubert :: 3-9 :: 899 pts
3. Team NIP :: 4-8 :: 865.5 pts
4. Team ERU :: 4-8 :: 962.5 pts
5. Team Fenikz :: 5-7 :: 949.5 pts
6. Team WCBGU :: 5-7 :: 981 pts
7. Team T24L :: 5-7 :: 1051 pts
8. Team Brodeur :: 5-7 :: 1063.5 pts
9. Team Scottyboy :: 5-7 :: 1103.5 pts
10. Team WMD :: 5-7 :: 1161.5 pts
11. Team PF28 :: 6-6 :: 942 pts
12. Team KCJ58 :: 6-6 :: 1058.5 pts
13. Team scar988 :: 7-5 :: 1122 pts
14. Team Comahan :: 7-5 :: 1225.5 pts
15. Team BrownsTown :: 8-4 :: 1058 pts
16. Team M.O.T.H. :: 8-4 :: 1321.5 pts
17. Team Nerv :: 9-3 :: 1212.5 pts
18. Team BigDawg :: 9-3 :: 1281.5 pts
19. Team D-Unit :: 9-3 :: 1334.5 pts
20. Team Xiomera :: 10-2 :: 1398 pts
|
. . . but that one doesn't show which new members assumed the ownership of which old team.

I have added 1 point per reception to help even out the disparity between QBs and WRs/RBs.
Also flirted with adding .5/1pt for 40 & 50 yard TD runs and receptions, but ended up deciding against it. So you might see several setting changes on the league page, but the only thing I did was add the PPR stat.
I have received a few PMs about adding another offensive position roster spot. What are your guys thoughts on that? My feeling is that if I do that, then I'll also want to add a bench spot and increase the number of RBs/WRs that you can store on your roster by 1.

Frick, I think Hchu is holding up the draft on us. Damn newbie. He has the first pick too. We could get through 19 picks if he'd just make the first pick.
But I still don't know if I wanna add that extra spot. That's why I'm putting out feelers.

D, add the extra roster spot. In any given week, the maximum number of RB's that can be used is 40. Given that there are 32 NFL teams, that renders nearly every teams backup RB's totally useless.
I would not expand the bench size by one, however. It'd be fine if you did, but that would leave practically nothing on the free agent list.

There are 20 teams in your War League. Each team has the option of starting as many as 2 RB's, and as few as 1. So for the week, a maximum of 40 RB's for the entire NFL are accumulating stats for our teams.
There's 32 teams in the NFL. Surely there are more than 40 RB's that are useful fantasy players on a week to week basis. I'd say two-thirds of the teams in the NFL employ a two-back, time shared rotation.
It just seems like RB is a deep position. It's dumb to have so many RB's rotting away on the bench every week.
Like in my situation, I have almost no need whatsoever to even draft a Running Back since it's difficult to see any of the FA running backs being more start worthy than Steven Jackson or AD.

That sounds like a change that would make the league better. I think I'll do it after a little more input from others.

Yeah, I'll take a risk, but with the first pick Team HChu selects Derek Anderson, QB.
