In as Tecmo Bowling for Columbine. Not a fan of IDP. A fan of worst team -> first pick and so on. Never had a problem with people being cute with their keepers, but I can see how somebody could  over it and suck a lot of the fun out of the draft so I'm fine with secret keepers.

I missed my draft last year with the first pick. Ended up with AP, Stevan "Fumble Machine" Ridley and David Wilson in the first three rounds, leaving me a Roethlisberger/Schaub starting pair of QBs

I think you need to use the Customize Draft Board to manually set what keepers we want. I'm advising blind because I can't see the pages, but these links might help: http://www.nfl.com/fantasyfootball/help/custom-keepers http://www.nfl.com/fantasyfootball/help/custom-draftboard

I think that makes sense. Sort of. Looking forward to the draft (and planning to be punctual since I have to lead us off) this weekend!

8-5, tied for fourth. Sweet. And no I'm not trading for the Bills defense. Taking the Patriots was strategic because they have six games against the Bills, Jets and Dolphins

I told you all he was going kicker there, and nobody listened to me. I don't want to hear it when somebody (everybody) loses thanks to Gostkowski's kicking. Zach Mettenberger was Mr. Irrelevant, and yet he's in position to be the first rookie QB to see the field this year (unless the rumors are true & Carr managed to steal the starting job in Oakland). Not thrilled with the middle of my draft, I think I took a bit too much in backups for depth and left long-term keeper options at QB/RB on the board just one round too long. Pretty happy with the start and finish, and I like my roster.

Honestly even though it's not what we agreed upon I think just the 7 round draft at the end makes the most sense at this point. Maintaining those initial draft rankings is only going to get more convoluted as trades and free agency continue. Plus there's the issue that, say AP retires after this year but his owner (Dontrel, I think) wins the league. Unless somebody else drops their first-rounder he gets the #1 pick while whoever the worst team is might not pick for quite a while depending on how far down the draft rankings their first non-kept player falls. I mean, there's balance there because Dontrel would be losing a great player, so it makes sense to give him a chance at compensation...but is it fair that the best team gets the first shot to reload over teams trying to rebuild? Of course we all drafted with the notion that the rankings would matter so some older players went pretty high...

Forever_Peace posted:In the very least, I propose that the first 20-30 picks this coming year still be determined by the overall pick value of players dropped. That should be easy enough to set manually, and provides a transition into a new system that is less grossly unfair. Pretty sure it's doable: quote:Click "Select Keeper Players" and you will see all keepers set to the initial rounds of the draft by default. Simply hover over a pick and when you see the pencil icon, click the cell to display the keeper selection tool. Choose the specified keeper who should fill that slot (click done to confirm the change). You will note that the keeper then swaps into your chosen position. Repeat over and over until all keepers are in their correct slots and then click "Submit". When your league draft room opens, keepers will be placed on each individual team as you specified and when those picks are up to draft, they will be skipped, as the pick has already been made for you. I can't see the keeper settings rules and the FAQ just generalizes "or use some other setting you choose" so I don't know if there are set rules you have to follow or if you can manually set each team's keepers by the round they were initially selected & it'll filter through giving people draft picks as they have openings based on who they didn't keep like we originally assumed was possible.

It depends on what the other owners do in rounds 1-10. If that 11th round pick is the first player dropped it's #1 overall (and would've been regardless). If everyone drops in round 11 because of the slideback it's somewhere in the mix instead of the assured #1 it would've been had it not slid out of the 10th round.

Keeper hostage negotiations! Let's just dump the round thing & go true dynasty. It's not what we originally discussed or agreed upon but it's become apparent that what we agreed upon is incredibly confusing and exceedingly difficult (if not outright impossible) to actually pull off.

That looks pretty fair. Also very easy to determine who's likely to be picking where throughout the season for purposes of draft pick trading, which is a nice bonus.

Have to start Flacco over a probably-healthy Cam because if Cam can't go I don't want to drop anybody to pick up any of the free agent QBs that're starting.

The championship game is a battle of attrition, I left ~17 on the bench (Newton over Flacco and literally anyone over Blount) and I trail by 25.4 with only Emmanuel Sanders on Monday night. There's still hope!

 e: congratulations to Holding Penn. Have it a hell of a run but Sanders just didn't have another 3 points in him (and i don't think he was even on the field the last 3 minutes or so). If you started Dalton and Bernard it wouldn't have even mattered so thanks for making it close! StupidSexyMothman fucked around with this message at 05:53 on Dec 23, 2014 |

Projected 4-9, sweet. Really close matchups all year, though; the toughest matchup of the year is @ 42.7% probability to win, and the easiest game has 60.6% probability to win. & yes I did mean to keep two defenses and two kickers, I kept all the depth I felt was reliable and let the rest go, and looking at who I released I'm happier with NE/BAL defense and PHI/CAR kickers than anybody else I could've held on to.

Two minute drill, let's run the ball! gently caress Todd Haley, I'm going to lose by four tenths of a point thanks to that dipshit run call e: I'm sorry, eight tenths of a point because HE CALLED TWO RUN PLAYS e2: I am less mad now that a two minute drill ended with a touchdown run, but seriously before that, I was robbed.
