    Trading draft picks in keeper league question (noob)

    My league has just introduced keepers. Everything has been straight forward until now before the draft as owners are trying to trade potential keepers for draft picks to other teams. I was hoping for some guidance and/or clarity about this seeing as all of us in the league haven't done it...

    Starting the WR to offset the QB theory....

    I know this has probably been discussed a lot, but trying to rehash this for championship week. When presented with tough lineup decisions, I know sometimes people look at starting the main WR from their opponents starting QB's team to try to offset some of the potential scoring. I'd assume for...

    Jason Witten - still a weekly start?

    Witten has been old reliable for a long time. I've never targeted him, but this year decided to because I wanted a safe and steady TE but didn't want to pay the price of getting Jimmy Graham or an injured Gronk. It started well with the big game in week 1, but since then it's been all pretty...

    Is a sack always a full tackle?

    Question regarding official NFL stats. I was always under the impression that a sack is always registered as a full/solo tackle as well. So for instance, in our IDP league, we score sacks as 5 points and solo tackles at 1 pt to make sacks worth 6 points Assisted tackles are .5 and half sacks are...

    Ben Tate vs Arian Foster

    if Ben Tate doesn't get injured this preseason, does he win the Texans starting job? Foster is easily the best RB is fantasy this year, but will it last? I own him in a keeper league and normally I wouldn't even hesitate, but I wonder about Tate. I seem to recall Tate was viewed as the Texan RB...

    Non-kickers and scoring....how is your league handling it?

    Yesterday we saw 2 non-kickers attempt PATs. One was made by Wes Welker and one was missed by N.Suh (hilarious to watch btw) My league penalizes kickers for missing PATs so should Suh get the minus points in this situation? As it stands, Suh isn't getting minus points because he's listed as an...

    IDP scoring question -Greenway

    Yesterday Chad Greenway had what looked like a possible interception. The play was challenged and reversed, but shouldn't he be awarded a pass defensed? This is the play as it showed in the play by play: (7:08) D.Anderson pass short left intended for S.Breaston INTERCEPTED by C.Greenway at ARZ...

    ESPN League Manager question RE: Free Agent Auction

    I have a question for anyone who has used EPSN League Manager since my league has moved to ESPN this year. We want to set up a free agent auction style add/drop system. It gives the option to run this on every day of the week. Ideally we would like to run it twice a week on Tues and Wed, then...

    Same draft strategy for every league or change it up?

    I assume most of us are in multiple leagues. Do you guys tend to go with the same strategy in them? I have 2 leagues with pretty similar scoring and I draft #2 in both. I'm considering drafting with different strategies in them. I guess it's spreading out the risk of my team bombing if one of my...

    2QB league vs 1QB + FLEX QB league

    I am going to be joining a new league this year that instead of having 2 QBs start as mandatory, will have QBs be a flex option. TDs are 4 pts for passing, 6 pts for the rest, 25 yards = 1 pt passing. Start 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 1 D and 1 K. In a league like this, can I just follow the strategy...

    ? re: IDP league where sacks worth 6 points

    When you are in a league where sacks are worth 6 points and tackles are worth 1 pt/.5 pt, how do you adjust the value of a guy like DeMarcus Ware? I ask this because at the end of the season, his point total will be pretty high. BUT, sacks are still few and far between in comparison to tackles...

    League is going to introduce IDP this year....help!

    So our league has voted to incorporate IDPs this year. No one in our league has really played in one with IDPs before so we are pretty clueless on what's a good scoring system, how many to use, what positions, etc. I was thinking about starting small, like maybe just 1 DL, 1 LB and 1 DB. What...

    Do you invest $ to try to win the Toilet Bowl?

    So I got bounced out of my playoffs last week (thanks AD) and now got put into the Toilet Bowl. My league charges $$$ for transactions. I could stand to upgrade one of my WR spots, but do I put in more investment into this team that can max out at winning the Toilet Bowl? What do you guys...

    Is it safe to say Vince Young has been "Maddened"

    Sorry if a honda, but with his injury today and a poor season (statistically), is it too early to say VY has fallen victim to the Madden curse? I wasn't scared of it and took VY in several leagues and have not enjoyed the returns so far. His team is winning games, but he's not doing much at all...

    Frank Gore ranking this week

    Gore ranked by Dodds pretty high in comparison to other services. With a tough match up in the Ravens and a QB change, I think he'd be hard pressed to match that ranking this week. As a Gore owner, I'd love it of course, but after watching the 49er offense against these other tough Ds the past...

    Fitz/Boldin - downgrade?

    After watching the Card/49ers game, it's pretty obvious that the Cards want to run the ball a majority of the time. It doesn't help that Leinart looked timid and confused out there most of the time. The thing that worries me the most as a multiple Fitz owner is that there was multiple red...

    Quick Draft Dominator question

    My league is moving to the decimal scoring this year to get credit for every yard. So for example a 99 yard rushing day would be 9.9 points this year versus 9 points last year. Anyone know how I make the necessary adjustment in Draft Dominator for the scoring part? It should be easy, but my...

    CBS giving a 50% League Discount

    sorry if a honda, just noticed it on my league's front page. that's pretty good of them to do that. My league never experienced any problems, but I will happily take 50% off next year's league. The other offer was 25% refund for this year's league, but eh, it's almost over.

    The only QB in my leagues to get double digit fantasy points

    Michael Vick? Everyone's favorite whipping boy is putting together a superb fantasy season. His running has certainly helped him this year, but he's always had that and he's never been this consistent for fantasy purposes. Peyton Manning is pretty close, but in my leagues he's got 1 single...
