Planning for Eutopian Fantasy Football League

[unmerged(4021)]

I'll take Marvin Harrison, WR, with my second pick.

 

[unmerged(4271)]

Can someone please tell me when the Stingrays are created in the league?

Go here:

http://fantasysports.yahoo.com/

Then use the info that EstonianZulu posted, with our league number: (ID# 416706) and password to join the league, then create the Buen Puerto StingRays when it asks you to create a team.

I'd suggest we switch Gonzo and Barkeep's order this round only so Gonzo gains no benefit from jumping the gun... which would make the next pick Barkeep's.

What do you say, Commissioner?

 

[Estonianzulu]

Sounds fair, Barkeep, then Gonzo, then we get back into regular order.

(and yes Randy, not Santana )

 

[unmerged(4021)]

Note that I posted my pick under the assumption that Gonzo and I were switching.

So, pick 11 belongs to Gonzo, then we go back to Craig.

 

[unmerged(23409)]

I pick Hasslebeck.

And I've created myself on Yahoo.

 

[unmerged(4271)]

Craig was on vacation but should be back by now. (I think I saw him pop up on IM).

But he had sent me his picks in case it came around to his turn. I'll hold off so he can pick himself, but if he's tied up and doesn't in a day or so, I'll go ahead and post his so we can move on.

Sound fair?

 

[Craig Ashley]

I am indeed back. A word of advice, it is a long trip from Chicago to Maine, especially if you are hung over for the return trip.

Anyway, I need to pick another player. You can't go wrong with a solid backfield, so the Violators select ...

Sean Alexander!

 

[The_Hawk]

I'll take Ahman Green, and pray that the Packers have a good year.

We'd better shake it up if we're going to get through all these drafts by the time the first game is played! Heag?

 

[unmerged(4271)]

Okay, ya got me on this one - What does this mean, as a description of the roster?

QB, QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, TE, WR/TE, WR/TE, WR/RB, WR/RB, K, K, DEF, DEF, BN, BN, BN, BN

How many players at each position do we START each week and what the heck is a "BN"?

Will submit pick upon rec' answer.

 

[The_Hawk]

I believe BN would be bench positions. Don't know who goes there or whether we're even using them. I assume we start the same roster as we started last season -- assume, but don't know for sure.

 

[Estonianzulu]

Your starting roster is the same as last year. BN is bench, but basically that is your free spot. (so if I want 3 QB's, you can have 3 QB's, one would take your bench spot.)

Ummm, no, that's not how we did it last year.

RULES
Teams consist of twelve players/units: 2 Quarterbacks (QBs), 2 Running Backs (RBs), 4 Wide Receivers or Tight Ends (WR/TE), 2 Kickers (Ks) and 2 team defenses/special teams units (D)s.

Each week team managers will announce their starting line-up by Wednesday. Each team will start 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WRs or TEs (or combo), 1 K, 1 D.

Each team will score points based on the scoring of the NAFL players' NFL counterparts. On Offense: each touch down = 6 points, each field goal = 3 points, each point after touchdown (PAT) = 1 point. On Defense or Special teams, any touchdown = 6 points, safeties = 2 points, running a PAT back for a score = 1 point. Some offensive players also play special teams. You only earn points for your starting offense for points they score while on offense.

Teams will play head-to-head. Whichever team in a game scores the most points wins.
__________________

In other words you could only have 2 QBs, not 3. And you only started 1 QB.

Each week you would only start: 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WRs or TEs (or combo), 1 K, 1 D.

This is new stuff with the flex positions (WR/RB) and number of players. The bench is a lot bigger (designated bench players plus "extras" (BNs)) and I am still not sure, from this year's info, what my starting line-up looks like.

So what's up? Did we just switch to larger rosters? Or did we also switch how many players (and which ones) start each week?

 

[unmerged(4271)]

Still confused.

But I will be away Fri-night through Sunday evening, so any answer is appreciated.

Question: Which combination of player positions composes the starting line-ups? Which combination composes the full roster?

 

[Estonianzulu]

Each week you would only start: 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WRs or TEs (or combo), 1 K, 1 D.

And thats all you start this time round as well.

So what's up? Did we just switch to larger rosters? Or did we also switch how many players (and which ones) start each week?

Just a larger roster. Im going to see if I can drop the BN position all together and simplify things.

 

[Estonianzulu]

QB, QB, RB, RB, WR/TE, WR/TE, WR/TE, WR/TE, K, K, DEF, DEF

That is the new draft size.

E-Zulu: I will PM you my top 4 preferences for my next pick, in case Busco and Voshkod make their picks before I return Sunday night.
