JO's ESPN 16 Team League

262 posts in this topic

Just made the league. 16 teams... 14 Weeks... 4 Divisions... 6 teams make the playoffs(2 get a BYE)... One Champion. ESPN Standard scoring, the playoff seeding tiebreaker will be based upon H2H record. Roster Size is 15. I took away one RB as I feel there is no need to have 2 RBs and 2 WRs while have a flex spot.

 

So I went with keeping the 2 WRs and having only one running back starting. If you want to start two, you can place a RB in the flex spot. There is a 3 trade limit with the trade deadline being Wed Nov 27th at 12:00pm. If there is a trade that we feel is bad or isn't equal, we must have 8 vetoes to veto the trade.

 

The date of the Draft is Saturday Night August 10th at 10:30pm in a snake format. Check your PMs for the password.

1RB? lol ok.

 

This is a first for me as well.

 

This should be interesting.  Plus its a standard league, so one less position means even lower scores.

Well I didn't see the point of two RBs with a flex spot you can use on a RB if you want.

i actually like it better with just the one RB and two WRs plus the flex - closer to real life

Yeah I know. Plus with this being a quarterback driven league, do we need two RB spots?

But this is fantasy.

I wouldn't say this is a QB league.  You only start one QB and they get 4 points for a passing TD.  If anything this is a WR driven league now with only 1 RB.

I just want to try to make things interesting, that is all lol.

 

Starting to think I should have added more points to RBs to account for only one spot.

I think it is fine as is. My only issue is it shifts the balance of the league a bit more towards those who can draft a top RB early.

Agreed.  The snake draft in a one RB (required) league will give an obvious advantage to those who can draft a stud RB in the first couple picks.

 

Where teams in the back-end of a snake draft in a 2-RB league can double dip on starting RBs and get the advantage back in a shallow RB pool.
