I will make one more plea for next year on getting rid of defenses and kickers and having one more flex. The top 12 defenses this year were separated by a total of 44 points over 13 games.....the top 12 kickers were separated by 35 points. They are just not relevant in my opinion. The home leagues that I'm in that went that way seem more exciting but whatever everyone else wants I will be good with. God willing I will be back.

Thanks cy - congrats.

I agree - all of my leagues except one have gotten rid on defense and kickers. And done extra flex (or superflex) - with the changing of members we can possibly do some more voting next year on rule changes and see what passes.

looks like diggs had the nail in the coffin - congrats to you


thanks all -

Paid in full by Willie and the Dude. Fantastic work this year.

If the original members want back in next year they can have my spot otherwise I will be in. I’m up for whatever people would vote but my preferences are no Kicker and No Defense. I do not like super flex (play 2 QBs) but an extra flex spot would be cool.

Hi guys! I'm ready!


I am in. I have a few suggestions:

- Can we determine the draft order early on in the process and allow draft slot trading pre-draft?

- I like PPR but I also kinda like that this league is unique. This league does seem to place a much stronger value on RB than any other position. Maybe 0.50 ppr for WR/RB and 0.75 ppr for TE. This may create more closely aligned value among RB, WR, and TE.

- Can we add an extra flex position?

- Kickers/Defenses eliminated? A ton of leagues are moving toward this.

I am playing no matter the scoring system but just wanted to add my opinions.


Looking forward to the season.

Im opposed to eliminating kickers and defenses, guess I'm an old fashioned traditionalist

I don’t like kicker/defense. But we didn’t have consensus. so we can keep.

I would say .5 ppr. Everything else same
i do love more flex spots etc. but think it’s tough to agree so we can just stay as we have been with the .5 ppr we added last year.

unless others feel strongly somewhere

I know I took over somebody's spot can't remember who, that didn't want to do last year, due to COVID, etc. They can have the spot back if they want otherwise I will play, but I will be lets say an alternate to get in.
Thanks

I am in again. Hoping to have a better showing this year. I blame Covid for the horrendous team :):).

Any rules will work for me, but if I had to vote:

1. Get rid of kickers/DST, although not a strong position here either way.
2. Yes to extra flex.
3. Keep PPR but at lower 0.5. I like the TE kicker of .25 to make them more valuable.
4. Yes to trading draft spots, but most leagues that I am in no one trades them.

I'm suggesting

Roster sizes return to 2019 levels

Regular season extended one week, since the NFL added a game and a week to the regular season

Don't mind 1/2 point PPR, opposed to full point has that just shifts value from RB to WR

Don't mind flex

HATE SUPERFLEX

I am in. Couple of thoughts....

*Really do not care either way if we have kickers or defense, the only point of contention I have is that eliminating those ("IF") we do so will limit the amount of available players that might be available to pickup by at least 25 players. So, less players to choose from at it seems at times pickings are slim to begin with.

*Adding a flex? So, we would have two flex spots if I am correctly reading the above. If that is the case, either way is fine with me.

*Agree with bringing roster back to 2019 levels, only purpose for higher roster was the obvious and the uncertainty from week to week.

*1/2 point ppr, I am okay with this, as long as it is the same across the board and no position variations. To confusing when it could get to a 1/4 point for TE position and such....

My biggest change which I have put out there the past couple of years with no real discussion is making the the $100 waiver wire budget and transaction moves "REAL" dollars. This could considerably add money to the overall pot. Any discussion for or against would be great.

Please any discussion on the waiver wire and transactions....in the past been little to no discussion other them myself.

I'm back in.......to defend my title!! @):)I will say again I don't like kickers and defenses. I would rather see a flex and no K or D and roster sizes back to original number. If I had to choose one or the other I would keep defense and get rid of those m$#%^erf@#$ing kickers. My opinion and as always I am fine with the majority. Look forward to another fun draft and year. I too like the thought of real money for waivers but totally understand the other side also. In my home league we take whatever money is in the year end waiver money pool and play a poker tournament ..... winner takes all at the end of the year party.

Hi,
Here are a couple of things my other league does if you want to kind of have it as a talking point for potential other ways.
in my old school league score only, we have in your head to head matchup if you lose it costs you $20 and whomever the high score is for the week gets that pool money for the week, and we true up every 4 weeks the commissioner gets the money and disburses it out to the winners of the week.

The other thing we do is each waiver wire pick up cost that person $10 per move, and we limit to 2 per week. and if trades happen it is $10 per player. And we use that money to split it for longest rush for TD, longest Reception for TD, and longest FG.
