Bench Spots? (1 Viewer)

[Plainsman]

Not sure if right forum cause im new but I am commish of a new redraft league and we are trying to determine how many bench spots are apropriate for a 10 team league that starts 15 players each week. From your experience how many spots should we have? What would you consider to be the bare minimum amount we should go with? Basically, do you do a ration of 1:1 starters to bench or should it be more or less?

Is this IDP or not? If it is IDP, I would lean to the 1:1 ratio or at least close. No less than 25.

If you are standard I would argue everyone could have good depth with a bench 25. If you want a really active waiver wire I would even go as low as 22 in this format.

It is an IDP league. It just seems the current bench size, 8, we have is barely enough to cover bye weeks, much less injuries and room for sleepers. I would also think it would hinder trading as there would be quality still on the wire.
