good stuff, he wasn't on my radar at all. We extended an extra 5 IR this year so I'll try to get him on there
I see your non-expansion and raise you no IR spots in my league......
Not really, but he’s a free add and I had an open spot. The way I look at it, even if the odds are tiny, if you have free add/drops after your waivers run and aren’t filling your IR, Taxi, and bench to its limit at all times you aren’t doing everything you can to win or mine talent. I can immediately tell when someone isn’t a competitive owner, long term, if they sit on any empty taxi or bench spots in dynasty no matter how deep the rosters are. IR is slightly more grey area bc the wire can be thin, but those are added value spots too even if it’s a long shot.
See? Non-competitive, even if it takes a while for the roster to reflect that.
If your league becomes too top heavy then the league is no fun. The same guys winning all the time makes it boring for everyone. Plus you will end up losing owners out of frustration or boredom.
We can set up the system so you cannot set a lineup if you have illegal players on IR. It automatically keeps everyone in line so they cannot circumvent the system. I am not sure what you think is so hard about that.I see your non-expansion and raise you no IR spots in my league......
16 team IDP League...Somewhat deep benches though with 14 bench slots (3 of which are for just this year due to COVID concerns) and an additional 3 man Taxi Squad. So many players are rostered (possible of 496) not much on the Waiver Wire out there so there is flexibility without the IR hassle.
I found that in previous leagues it was a nightmare to keep up with Out vs IR and owners constantly tried to circumvent the system. When I started this league 4 years ago that was one of the big changes - no IR. Makes my job sooooo much easier!
I would love a debate about stashing redraft guys.
Jarwin is done for the year and Allison opted out for COVID. Neither are coming back this year
different leagues use different philosophies for sure. I would assume that this league also uses a waiver system which allocates the first picks each waiver cycle to the teams with the worst record as well?
Which league? My comment was not in conjunction with any league. It was about what happens if leagues become uncompetitive
