full side defense (1 Viewer)

[shootnscore26]

I'm starting a 10 man dynasty league with 11 defensive players. Formations are:

4-3, nickel, dime, and a goaline which has 4 lb, 3 dt, 2 de and 2 safeties..I tweaked the scoring so the db's score the same and LB's avg about 4 pts more per week. Just wondering what kind of experience anyone has had with a full defense and if it's too much to keep track of...

Also, any mags or websites that rank defensive positions for drafting? All I see is 1-4 pages with cheatsheets for IDP in general..It seems like it would be bigger since more leagues have IDP now..

Two leagues that I am in:

http://football32.myfantasyleague.com/2006/home/15548

Both leagues allow a little flexibility in the defensive lineups.

The scoring systems for leagues like this often become so specialized that a raw cheatsheet probably isn't your best option anyway. In my leagues, I use the cheatsheets (and our projections) as a template, break out the corners and undertackles, then tweak them for the scoring system.

I'm in one such league.

It's definitely a challenge, but I really like it because of how much different analysis is involved. It makes it fun for me.

Here's one more. 12 teams. 40 rounds. You can run a 3-4 or 4-3 (no one runs a 4-3). Must start two CB and two S.

I love it. It's just the next step in fantasy to me. I know there's leagues out there drafting punters and O-linemen, that may be the next step, but I'll be stuck on this one for a while. Way too much work for this guy.

It is more of a crapshoot than with offensive players, especially with cornerbacks. Because bad corners can have a great season, and then you figure, OK, I'll draft a bunch of CB2's, and Bailey goes bonkers.

This league gives points for returns, which I love, and increases the value of your Darrent Williams', Pac Man's, and McGee's.
