Okay. So it's basically a flex spot. I've played in leagues with it, but never one where a QB was eligible.

Yes, on top of another flex spot where you can only use a RB/WR. It's really fun with a lot of points, and two QB's can really hurt or help a team. I think you'll like it.

I'm already thinking of players I'll draft for that slot. It won't change my strategy to wait on a QB, but I may take one a round earlier now.

All this fantasy football talk got me back into doing mock drafts to get into midseason form. I need another trophy on my wall from winning back to back years.

I wish I could stop doing mock drafts. I've already done nearly 30 this year. I'm an addict. But the lack of FA is really hurting early mocks. It will completely change when FA is all said and done. There are just too many people that you have no idea where they're going, or what situation they are going to muck up.

Mock drafts on ESPN are [i]really[/i] fun. Yahoo needs to take notes.
[/quote]

ESPN ones are good. Lots of Info. I tried another yahoo one the other night and I got frustrated with it. Mostly I use CBSsportsline I like their simple mocks (but they do go a bit slower). But I feel like the mockers are better players than the ones at ESPN.

Its a big difference when you can use two QBs. It makes QBs much more valuable. Your best bet is to utilize the two QB system because you can usually eke out the most points consistently. If you have two top notch QBs, your rest of the team can be trash. Usually I take QBs late. But in a league like this I take them earlier.

Its almost a QB league, but I think QB TDs are only 4 points in this league. Which makes it not.

People I know always draft a stud QB in the first couple of rounds, then someone like Henne or Sanchez in the later rounds to put up some nice points. I hardly ever draft a QB early though lol, except my first year, and I sucked. Last year I drafted Ben, traded for Tony Romo and picked up Freeman off of waivers, and won the championship with Ben and Freeman, so it's all luck and having a nice set of RB's and WR's.

Which is why you should wait to get a QB and not draft the player that I wanted like last year

Aaron Rodgers was BPA for where I drafted. It worked out well until he got a concussion near the playoffs.

Plus QBs get nice bonuses for 300+ , 400+ games. Aaron Rodgers and Rivers are studs in this league.

[Romo Ravens]

So we're full once again lol. The last two joining will be FlaccoFlicker and berad

[FlaccoFlicker]

yup all joined up

[Wacko4Zacko]

12 people!? Ohh buddy! This league just got a bit more fun.

I've never mocked on CBS, but I can believe their players are better. I'm doing an ESPN mock right now, and after someone drafted the Steelers D, the next owner picked up the Ravens D. And those with the 82nd and 83rd picks.

Interesting. I'll have to make some changes to my pre-draft rankings.

That's how I would usually draft in a regular league.

How is trading between us both considered cheating? trades that put our teams into final game isn't cheating.

[Romo Ravens]

Wacko, is your mom cool with you drafting on the 2nd now?

[Wacko4Zacko]

As for the 2nd. My mom can go hit herself because I will be in college and she has no control over me or my FF. So I guess the 2nd will be ok.
