you want a piece of me???

nerve posted:

idk man it's whatever the default ESPN settings are, I didn't change anything.

Next off season we are going to change the way Free Agent keepers work.

Once the leagues starts back up after the offseason and is confirmed full of active owners (July) there will be a FA draft. As of now I'm thinking about just assigning every team a number and using a RNG, but if someone has an idea that fits better with the auction ethos, I'm open to it.

Basically in the draft you can select any free agent to be added to your team, and then you can keep them for last years auction price plus $5. If they weren't drafted, you can keep them for $5. That applies to rookies too.

That's my idea at least. I'd be totally down for feedback, and open to changing anything if someone has a better idea.

I think it'd be more equitable to have the summer FA draft be inverse order of standings instead of RNG. Like if we know by the summer draft that C-Mike is going to be Seattle's RB1, and then the league winner RNGs the first pick...

Would we need to set our 2 keepers by July before the summer FA draft? Is that too soon (if so is there a workaround?) Does ESPN even allow us to have 2 drafts??

I like that only 4 teams make the playoffs in a 12 team league, but we can talk about moving it to 6 next season if people want.

Speaking of, grats to our four playoff teams! And I missed them for the first time :(

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it
5th in two leagues including this one :negative:

4 teams making the playoffs would be cool if there were a way to circumvent derelict teams giftwrapping free wins to the beneficiaries of lucky scheduling - 10 teams were within 2 games of making the playoffs cutoff.

Then again 4 teams means you're playing wk17 which is dumb but whatevs.

I agree with this. It annoys me when I see my opponent has clearly given up.

QB2 + RB10 for
QB11 + ~RB1/2 (over the last few weeks)

I'm thinking
CJ: stud with great keeper value & I already have him handcuffed;
Cutler: inconsistent but has top-5 potential (weapons/schedule), should clean it up ROS since he's playing for his job;
Rodgers: owns but sits wk17
Morris: WSH offense is a clusterfuck and he gets vultured by Helu and Darrel Young

I don't want to put words in his mouth but We Do Not Suh might be thinking:
CJ: Does hillman take the starting job when he gets back?
Cutler: turnover machine
Rodgers: not jay cutler
Morris: dependable RB2 even if WSH is dumb and gay

I like Sataere's nerdposts but not enough to collude

Yeah the trade looks perfectly fine to me. CJ will be a top 5 pick next season if he doesn't get injured.

I think it is a stronger trade for me short term and a better trade for him long term. I don't think Anderson is a lock as a great keeper, and even if he is, I have plenty of great keepers on my team already. It was close, but I'd rather ride Rodgers in the playoffs. Also, I don't think it is a lock that he sits week 17. That assumes the Lions fall apart in December. Morris has been a top ten back in the league and is pretty consistent. I'm kind of surprised people are questioning it. I think the logic is pretty self-evident.

Yup, I'm a dumb person. Completely forgot about the keeper aspect, so all I got when I saw the trade was sirens.
