Just sent you guys a message on FB wondering where this was. Feel free to disregard that now. My league is very heavily biased towards yards (1pt/5yds rushing or receiving, bonus 7pts for over 100 compared to 5pts per touchdown). In that kind of scoring system, who would you push up in your...

You are correct. What I was trying to say is that if Colston is the third WR auctioned, chances are he's going to go for much more than if he's the 12th WR auctioned. A player has the possibility of slipping, simply because he's been overlooked, therefore goes for less money. If you're...

The dude's keeper was Ray Rice? No wonder he quit. :2cents: In my league, here's how the dollar values generally breaks down: QB 1-5: 20-25+% of the cap QB 6-10: 10-20% QB 11-: <10% RB 1-5: 35-40+% of the cap RB 6-10: 25-35% RB 11-: gradually dropping off, but varying wildly. WR...

Good question. If the league is new, then nobody is going to know the values. It's going to be a complete guess, especially since your setup is is so unorthodox. If you are new to an already running league, I would ask the commish for the auction values from last year. Explain that you want to...

I am in a 12-team auction league that has scoring heavily favored towards yardage. It is a non-PPR league that starts 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1K and a team defense. The top running backs will most likely go for around 40% of the cap each, while the top wide receivers will probably go for 20-25% of...

Sure, but I was speaking in generalities. My example of Boldin going for 4% of the cap is a prime example of that generality. He was considered a strong WR2 in our league last year, but somehow, nobody noticed that he hadn't been announced until very late. If he had been announced earlier in the...

These were in the Audible Auction thread, thought they might have gotten missed by some people who would want them. Of course, always open for other tips. For those whom have never been in an auction league before, here's some tips from what I've learned in running auction leagues for the past...

There are so many variables when it comes to auctions, the listed dollar values are almost never really close. The best bet is for you to realize the ratios of values, then use that as your baseline information. Then look into the group that you're bidding against. In my group, top running backs...

There are two Lion fans in my group. I always wear the Joey Harrington jersey to make them angry. For those whom have never been in an auction league before, here's some tips from what I've learned in running auction leagues for the past six years: The first 1-2 players announced are probably...

Hey guys, I am in a non-PPR auction league that favors yardage pretty heavily. I'm thinking of spending 35-40% of my cap on two stud starting WR, then another 40-ish% on mid-range RB that would carry most of the load for their team, like Slaton and Jacobs. Followed by a bargain QB like Shaub or...
