Having a running back who doesn't get rec yards is useless in my l (1 Viewer)

[hootyhoo22]

i'm in a yahoo league and it seems running backs get too many points for receiving yards. for example chester taylor has 49 rushing yards total and zero tds. but since he has 18 rec for 138 yards. so he has 110 fantasy points. yet julius jones example has 251 yards, 2 tds. 11 rec for 65 yards. yet he has 105 total pants. in my league tim hightower is the 4th best back. kevin smith is 5th. yet ap is 9th. does that make any sense??

Whether it makes sense or not, you know the scoring rules before your draft, so you should have adjusted your rankings accordingly.

I can't seem to figure out your scoring method. Even assuming 1 ppr Taylor should have 36.7 points. Do receiving yards get tripled v. rushing yards or something?

Truer words have rarely been written. It is what it is. Draft accordingly.

Clearly you get 15 bonus points for every game backing up the best RB in the league.
