I did a search and didn't come up with a whole lot. I think it was Matt Waldman on a recent Audible talking about an interesting blind bidding strategy. He advocated bumping up your bid by $1-$3 since most people will bid numbers like $10, $20, $25 etc. for WW additions. The logic is that by...

This is the final week of trading in my local, money, league. It's a 10-team, PPR, start: QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, TE, 2 Flex, PK, DEF league, with 20-man rosters so the WW is pretty thin. The top 8 teams make the playoffs, which start in week 14. Our league rules state that collusive trades will be...

Had a dentist appt. yesterday and was informed that I'll be the lucky recipient of a gum graft.I found this online: This sounds thoroughly unpleasant and I'm really not looking forward to it - especially after doing some reading up on it.I've had 3 wisdom teeth (with curved roots) removed by...

I've generally taken over existing dynasty teams and have my first initial draft coming up tomorrow. It's a PPR league and all TD's are 6. Since I normally play re-draft or 'small' keeper leagues, I've always been a draft a QB late type of guy since you only have to deal with mediocre...

I'm not advocating basing your entire draft off a hookup, or taking a garbage QB and WR from a weak passing team, but if you've got QB's and WR's in the same tier and need a deciding factor, why not go for the hookup? The QB and WR are just as likely to score the same amount as the other...

As the commish of a first-year local redraft league, I don't necessarily want to jump the gun to tweak scoring in an effort to make it more balanced based on one season. We give pretty standard PPR scoring, all TD's are 6 and 1 points per 10 yards rushing/receiving. Minus 2 points per...

I think I'd rather have Derek Anderson and Greg Jennings over Peyton Manning and Steve Smith. :popcorn:

IMO, owners are responsible for doing their homework prior to offering, or accepting a deal. I generally have the "a card laid is a card played" philosophy. I was contacted by 2 owners in my league who made a deal last night. At 6:30 pm last night Team A offers: Peyton Manning, Cedric Benson...

This should probably be a poll, but I've got messed up browser settings here at work that don't appear to allow me to do this. I'd probably screw it up anyway, though. Owen Daniels - Size - 6'3" 247 Career stats: 2006 season 34 receptions, 352 yards, 5 TD's. 2007 season 35 receptions, 427...

From watching the game last night it appeared that Jackson was playing RCB, when IIRC, he was slotted to play the $ LCB spot in the Colts scheme. Am I completely wrong here, or have Jackson and Hayden switched sides?

How many chances do you give an owner to pay league fees before you take more drastic measures? This is a local league where everyone knows everyone, but some owners are closer to each other, than others. I'll spare you all the history with this guy, but fees were due by Wednesday of week one...

He's got the RB1 gig locked up right now. What are the chances he has the same role again next year? Obviously we can't predict the future, but history with the Broncos RB would seem to indicate that if you can perform at a high level, you keep your job. Is this a safe assumption?

Week 1 - 12 Week 2 - 7 Week 3 - 6 Week 4 - 4 One thing to note is that apart from the week 3 game versus BUF he's made the most of his targets catching a good percentage of them. Meanwhile Coles has 10, 13, 13, 12. Obviously Coles is the #1 guy and is expected to be more heavily targeted...

Reading the Delanie Walker thread the first thing I thought, was why won't the Lions move Mike Williams to TE? Obviously his work ethic has something to do with it, but at 6'4" 230+ he could provide some serious mis-matches. Reading other threads about him, a lot of posters agree that his...

I think I recall a thread similar to this, but I searched and couldn't find it. If this belongs in the ACF, please move it. However, I believe this thread has merit as it should generate discussion on relative player values. It's been discussed ad nauseum that Bush hold much greater value in...

What are your thoughts?

I was having a conversation the other day with Bagger, Tiger Fan and radballs about WCOFF and average PPG. It started me thinking about player consistency. I have seen analysis done where the author determines an arbitrary level of consistency to test. That is nice, but it does it apply to...

There are people who believe in making projections, as this site does, and there are people who don't. This question is for the people who make projections. Where do people begin? Do you start with team projections then slot people in, or do you start with players and the team totals end up...

What is AVT you say? Here is an article from days gone by that explains it. AVT The discussion has come up recently on whether or not AVT is useful as method of making projections or using VBD. I started thinking about it and it piqued my interest. Does anyone still use AVT? Do you use...

Anyone know what the room rates at the Riviera are going to be?
