alright here's the problem. we have 12 guys with 12 different opinions. i tried breaking it up into smaller leagues but got resistance. you tried suggesting we only draft golds and silvers. that got resistance. everyone seems OK with a 12 team drafted league, but now you're showing resistance.there's not going to be a perfect solution for everyone! if we have a 12 team draft every team is going to have a weakness. the guy without a CB should have a FS and SS. The guy with 1 to 2 CB may not have a FS or SS or an OLB. its OK. its just for fun. the guy who has great DB's may not have any LB's and what happens when he runs up against a power running team? it's going to work itself out. you just aren't going to be able to build a perfect team. no one is. that's what makes this unique. it's going to be different. its OK.are you going to be OK with this?It's not gonna work.There ARE 11 CB in this game.MOST PEOPLE HAVE TWO ON DEFENSE! YOU NEED 24 CBs for all 12 teams. That means 1 team will NOT have a legend CB, about 5 will not have a LEGEND FS, and about 6 will NOT HAVE A LEGEND SS! One person will be missing a legend OLB!That is not "neutralizing" that is nuetering the game.Mesmashu said:this is what's going to neutralize the experienced players advantage. we can't use our perfected teams and will have to improvise. I'm really excited about this draft league and can't wait to see how it plays out! The shortage of certain positions adds a huge twist here.Zowned said:

PM me your pick?
QB: 10 - 6 - 19HB: 10 - 13 - 13FB: 1 - 2 - 2WR: 4 - 13 - 17TE: 4 - 6 - 3C: 2 - 2 - 3G: 3 - 3 - 4T: 5 - 7 - 4DT: 3 - 3 - 7 DE: 4 - 6 - 7 OLB: 2 - 2 - 7 = 11ILB: 4 - 4 - 9 CB: 4 - 4 - 3 = 11SS: 0 - 4 - 1 = 5FS: 3 - 3 - 4 = 10 K: 0 - 1 - 6P: 0 - 0 - 1Two suggestions....1) Gold and silver players are drafted only... allowing bronze to be hand picked.or2) Allow ALL defensive players to be draft 2 times. So there will be 22 OLBs available, 22 CBs, 10 SS, 20 FS. Still don't have enough for a every team to have the option of starting a LEGEND at every defensive position, but close enough. Still creates position disparity but gives all teams a fair chance of fielding a "team." I'm down for whatever the league wants to do, but if you guys keep it as is I can see the games all being 40 + pt games and taking 2 hours to complete b/c it will be long bomb after long bomb.so what's your solution?It's not gonna work.There ARE 11 CB in this game.MOST PEOPLE HAVE TWO ON DEFENSE!

I agree with this, but I want to know definatively what the draft rules are going to be (if any) before I make my pick. Everyone will have (had) the opportunity to draft at least one cornerback (given that the first two picks were non-CBs), so everyone is on an even playing field. If you decide not to draft a player in the secondary, that's your choice and you can build up other areas of your team.alright here's the problem. we have 12 guys with 12 different opinions. i tried breaking it up into smaller leagues but got resistance. you tried suggesting we only draft golds and silvers. that got resistance. everyone seems OK with a 12 team drafted league, but now you're showing resistance.there's not going to be a perfect solution for everyone! if we have a 12 team draft every team is going to have a weakness. the guy without a CB should have a FS and SS.

I'm not a big fan of this idea b/c we are still going to wind up with a lot of talent overlap which is what the draft was designed to avoid.QB: 10 - 6 - 19HB: 10 - 13 - 13FB: 1 - 2 - 2WR: 4 - 13 - 17TE: 4 - 6 - 3C: 2 - 2 - 3G: 3 - 3 - 4T: 5 - 7 - 4DT: 3 - 3 - 7 DE: 4 - 6 - 7 OLB: 2 - 2 - 7 = 11ILB: 4 - 4 - 9 CB: 4 - 4 - 3 = 11SS: 0 - 4 - 1 = 5FS: 3 - 3 - 4 = 10 K: 0 - 1 - 6P: 0 - 0 - 1Two suggestions....1) Gold and silver players are drafted only... allowing bronze to be hand picked.or2) Allow ALL defensive players to be draft 2 times.

Talent overlap on defense which this game is lacking.Whateve ryou guys want, but don't be suprised if games take forever to finish and wind up being 50 pt games b/c you can pick on the other teams non-legend DBs.I'm not a big fan of this idea b/c we are still going to wind up with a lot of talent overlap which is what the draft was designed to avoid.QB: 10 - 6 - 19HB: 10 - 13 - 13FB: 1 - 2 - 2WR: 4 - 13 - 17TE: 4 - 6 - 3C: 2 - 2 - 3G: 3 - 3 - 4T: 5 - 7 - 4DT: 3 - 3 - 7 DE: 4 - 6 - 7 OLB: 2 - 2 - 7 = 11ILB: 4 - 4 - 9 CB: 4 - 4 - 3 = 11SS: 0 - 4 - 1 = 5FS: 3 - 3 - 4 = 10 K: 0 - 1 - 6P: 0 - 0 - 1Two suggestions....1) Gold and silver players are drafted only... allowing bronze to be hand picked.or2) Allow ALL defensive players to be draft 2 times.

Works for me. I said double ALL defensive positions but leaving out the golds works.
i agree with this.
I'm good with keeping the current players with no doubling and seems zed, dude, sayhota, 16 is fine with it, orc, mesmashu so that's already 6 so can wait till smash gets back or what but it looks like we're sticking with each player being drafted once.We're also going to have to restart the draft if we change the rules at this point
by the way, have you played any league 1.0 matches yet?
Correct and that's over half of us now with Green so continue with the draft zed
1.03 - Lem Barney, CB (silver)
7/12 of us are already fine with not doubling...now we get to wait for pikachu to get back
Defense Cornerbacks win championships (in All Pro Football 2k8 - League 2.0).
A Silver CB over a Gold?1.03 - Lem Barney, CB (silver)
Part of strategy. You only have 2 gold spots and can use them for offensive gold such as a QB or HB so he went with a silver CB to save that gold spot. You'll probably see this happen more. Should plan where you want to use your 2 gold spots before taking one at another position.A Silver CB over a Gold?1.03 - Lem Barney, CB (silver)ETA: I make this pick based on NOT allowing the doubling of any players in the draft. If that is not the case, this whole thing has turned into a cluster####.
Already filled with 12 owners. Though feel free to add the guys that play on here as most of us play games outside of the league as well.
ahhh.Part of strategy. You only have 2 gold spots and can use them for offensive gold such as a QB or HB so he went with a silver CB to save that gold spot. You'll probably see this happen more.
