Anarchy is the password. You should change it after your first log on.Thanks for the two messages that I am on deck - unfortunately I still have no password for the league from DY
80 receptions = 160 points.That's as much as a RB with 1300 yards, 5 TDs.TEs are 2 pts per reception not 5 right?
True, but I they're also deeper this year and Gates at 1.06 is a stretch in that case, IMO.80 receptions = 160 points.That's as much as a RB with 1300 yards, 5 TDs.TEs are 2 pts per reception not 5 right?
And that's before you count the TE's yardage and TDs.
Big TEs are huge in this format.
Believe you me, I was having SERIOUS problems drafting Shockey at 1.12. I have this big hang up on drafting TEs too early. But in a league like this, where TE receptions are 2 points each, it was either him or Rudi Johnson. Doing some math, and looking over projections from various places, I thought Shockey might hold a bit more value in this type of league.True, but I they're also deeper this year and Gates at 1.06 is a stretch in that case, IMO.80 receptions = 160 points.That's as much as a RB with 1300 yards, 5 TDs.TEs are 2 pts per reception not 5 right?

He hasn't posted in this thread yet, so we may be in for a wait.Well gentlemen, unless some one knows OldMilwaukee I think we're done for the day.
I don't think he's posted in a week.I guess he must have talked to David in order to get in.He hasn't posted in this thread yet, so we may be in for a wait.Well gentlemen, unless some one knows OldMilwaukee I think we're done for the day.
Maybe OldMilwaukee went fishing. joffer u didn't get the memo on TE scoring? I mean those guys are going to catch like 30 more passes than the next tier of Tes right?I don't think he's posted in a week.I guess he must have talked to David in order to get in.He hasn't posted in this thread yet, so we may be in for a wait.Well gentlemen, unless some one knows OldMilwaukee I think we're done for the day.

That doesn't change the differentials. 32+ TEs are going to count every week. The #30 TE had 24 receptions for 229 yards and 2 TDs; he was outscored by 266 points by Antonio Gates; that's as many points as Edgerrin James scored in this format. You could get 20 points on the year from a backup running back who only plays in week 17, and with Gates you'd still be ahead of the guy who had Edgerrin James and Desmond Clark.and 64 RBs are going to count every week
there goes my whole strategy of drafting the 32nd ranked TE i'm not as skeptical about the Gates pick as i am with Gonzo and Shockey. they seemed early.That doesn't change the differentials. 32+ TEs are going to count every week.

Timer IS NOT on (and won't be until NEXT week). The time per pick at that time will be a 4 hour window. I only started the draft early because some people wanted to get a jump on things.I thought we were on an 8 hour window? Aren't we past that?
Shockey scored 274 points, Gonzo 258 in this format last year. Rudi Johnson, taken right after those two, scored 239. For reference, the #64 RB scored 51, the #32 TE 76.i'm not as skeptical about the Gates pick as i am with Gonzo and Shockey. they seemed early.
Gates also outscored Tomlinson, so why'd you take LT2?Shockey scored 274 points, Gonzo 258 in this format last year. Rudi Johnson, taken right after those two, scored 239.

I don't project Gates to repeat his 2005; in fact, I have Gonzalez and Shockey rated ahead of him. But if you project Gates to repeat his 2005, he absolutely deserves consideration in the top 3 in this format; he certainly performed at that level by VBD in 2005, with the only obvious outperformers being Steve Smith and Shaun Alexander. (Gates' precise VBD depends on how you set your baselines).Gates also outscored Tomlinson, so why'd you take LT2?Shockey scored 274 points, Gonzo 258 in this format last year.

Did you notice the TE's on at least one of the teams that won last year Cal?. I am not sure exactly who they were both they were both terrible. I will check around and try and find but i would think it should put any of this thinking to rest.Shockey scored 274 points, Gonzo 258 in this format last year.

I don't know if you have standing to use the term "thinking."Let us know how your stud QB strategy goes this year.Did you notice the TE's on at least one of the teams that won last year Cal?.

i think i feel more confident that i can find two TEs that will catch 45-50 passes in the mid rounds than trying to scrape the bottom of the barrel for RBs. it is interesting though.I don't project Gates to repeat his 2005; in fact, I have Gonzalez and Shockey rated ahead of him.

This is all meaningless IMO and all TE picked this early are wasted picks and i dont care what the projected math says. All I needed to do was chckk last years winners..you tell me who won and lost by thisSCHOBEL,MATT CINThat doesn't change the differentials. 32+ TEs are going to count every week.

For one thing, Wiggins and Troupe were TE11 and TE13, so that owner had above-average TEs. For another, you can't look at the results of two 16-team, 18-player leagues based on the performance of two players on each roster, and draw any meaningful conclusions from that "analysis." The concept you are missing (in this case) is "statistically insignificant."now you tell us now Cal about the numbers...there meaningless at ths time of year and seem even more useless in this format. These numbers are facts. Projecting last years numbers into this years projected numbers is impossible and not the way to go about drafting in this format IMO. Just by looking at these winning and losing TE's from last years teams. I mean it could not get anymore lopsided than these players who were on the winning and losing teams last year. Just has to mean take all the numbers out and toss them in this format and taking TE's early just might be a big waste of picks?
FWIW David, Old Mil only has 1 post in any of the Anarchy threads and it was the one where he said he was in. I hope he figures out that the league has started by next Monday, but I'm sort of guessing he forgot he was in the league.Timer IS NOT on (and won't be until NEXT week). The time per pick at that time will be a 4 hour window. I only started the draft early because some people wanted to get a jump on things.I thought we were on an 8 hour window? Aren't we past that?
He emailed me with his info . . . I will email him and see what's up.FWIW David, Old Mil only has 1 post in any of the Anarchy threads and it was the one where he said he was in.

We can wait. We're not even officially started yet.FYI --
I got an email from Old Milwaukee's wife today:
"This is the wife of Old Milwaukee...
He is in Syracuse due to a sudden tragic death in the family. He is
returning home to Rochester Monday morning. I let him know it was his
"turn" but I don't know if he will be able to do anything about it today.
Sorry, I know this either holds everyone up, or I imagine, you might eliminate
him."
It's just a fantasy auction. My condolences to you and your family.Just got here, give me a few and we will roll. Sorry for the tardiness, more info to come!
Sorry
Sorry to hear about that. No problem with the tardiness at all. I was just concerned you didn't know you were in the league. We had that happen in one of the WSLs.Just got here, give me a few and we will roll. Sorry for the tardiness, more info to come!
Sorry
Your welcome. Time will tell if I am right about Portis or not. It was not an easy decision.Oh man, I did not realize. I am now depressed that I got stuck with Shaun Alexander at 1.4. I'm hoping that I can somehow make up for that slow start.
