***Shark Pool Home League Uno*** - Congrats in Advance to Joey (5 Viewers)

Looking back, the 3 flex positions really compels you to wait on QB.

Yet QB scoring is jacked up big which counters that. Richardson/Jackson/Murray get downgraded in this scoring system, and guys like Burrow, Goff, Purdy, and Dak get bumps.

It’s more about the fact that if you take a QB in the mid rounds you’re essentially starting a player you’re taking in 8th. Dicey

Agree to disagree. QBs are huge in this format.

I'm actually quite surprised they went with .05/yard AND 6/td for qbs. Have never played in a league with this high of QB scoring, especially for ones that throw a lot.

OTOH you could end up with a rookie 10th round QB as your starter. It's still a trade off.

Mahomes/Corum or Purdy/Henry

Mahomes/McLaughlin or Tua/Jacobs

I know which way I lean but if @LawFitz found this year's Williams or Achane he'll be looking good.

 

[jvdesigns2002]

All good … wasn’t sure what to do, so took another TE!

really screwin over the guy 2 picks after you who doesn't have one yet! @jvdesigns2002

He didn’t screw me over. I decided to punt the TE position early in the draft so I wasn’t considering taking one there.

Surely your punt strategy included making your first TE a guy who won't play for at least 4 weeks.

Not trying to pump up my team, as I don't even really like it.

But I think the big QB winners in this format are those that took Mahomes/Allen in the 3rd, and those that waited until the 7th for Goff/Burrow/Purdy.

The last thing I'd want to do in this format would be to take Lamar/Richardson/Murray in the 5th.

I'm not sure I follow. Shouldn't it go Mahomes/Gibbs, Mahomes/Conner & Mahomes/Mostert before we start talking about Corum & McLaughlin?

How about taking Murray in the middle of the 6th? Ha ha

Likely as his ONLY TE seems... interesting. An andrews injury away from a title, but I wouldn't want my TE1 to be a team's backup TE.

I think he's comparing rounds. If you compare the R2+R10 of the two teams. You could either have Mahomes+McLaughlin, or Tua+Jacobs.

Your 9th rounder is starting and when byes come it will be your 10th and 11th.

We start 10 players every week in this league. 1qb, 2 rbs, 2 wrs, 1 te, 3 flex, 1 dst . Every team will at least be starting guys they drafted in the first 10 rounds.

 

[Deamon]

Oh, okay I guess. If you believe in Purdy & Tua that is.

Here is the Top 8 QBs last year with this scoring format: EDT: And where they were drafted in this draft.

1. Josh Allen (QB2)
2. Jalen Hurts (QB3)
3. Dak Prescott (QB7)
4. Jordan Love (QB8)
5. Lamar Jackson (QB4)
6. Brock Purdy (QB12)
7. Jared Goff (QB11)
8. Tua Tagovailoa (QB15)

Minus burrow and murray for injury. Slot Murray at 6 and burrow at 7 for this year. Burrow may throw 10 more tds then Murray for 60 points. Murrays rushing will make up those points. Imo

And none of the situations of these players have drastically changed at all.

Of those QBs that got taken way later this year than they finished last year, (Dak, Love, Purdy, Goff, Tua), are there factors that have changed that will SIGNIFICANTLY hurt these guys? (Minus maybe Trent Williams holding out into the season).

No I don't think they will finish as high as they did last year, but they got taken much lower than they finished last year... I think those guys were all great values.

None of them lost any WR's.

Oh I'm sure the order will change a lot... likely another QB or 2 will enter that top 8 (Mahomes seems like a lock), and some of those good value guys will fall off a bit. So ya, I could for sure see Murray/Mahomes/Burrow in that top 8 this year and guys like Purdy/Goff/Tua falling out of it. But not falling so far out of it that they won't be a good value taken at QB11, 12, and 15 like they were in this draft.

I completely get your point. Heck, I was really hoping Goff would make it to me at 7.12.

After he went off the board I had a bunch of guys that looked basically interchangeable to me so I waited. I don't love having a rookie as my franchise QB in this format but, I hope I can overcome it in other areas.

The 6pt passing td’s is exactly why I waited on qb. In 4 point passing td’s, there is a huge premium on running qb’s—and consequently—the elite ones get drafted really early. In this format—the gap between the elite qbs and the solid passers is mitigated. I still would expect elite qb’s to have an advantage in this league—but I don’t think that the gap between the elite guys and a top 12-15 guy will be nearly as big. In a 12 team league where we start 10 positions weekly—each and every team is going to have some strengths (advantages) and some weaknesses (disadvantages). The advantage or disadvantage that a team has in their qb position is just as important as the advantage or disadvantage that they have in their 2nd or 3rd flex position..etc (at least that’s how I see it). Because of this, and because I’m forced to start at least twice as many rb’s, wr’s than I am qb’s or te’s—I wanted to load up on those positions. Those are positions that comprise 70% of my weekly starting lineup.

QB1 scored 132 more points than QB10 last year though in this format... that is pretty substantial. That extra 7 points per game is pretty big.

I agree for the most part what you say though. Those that got those passing qb's late are the big winners. I still think getting Mahomes/Allen end of 3rd is great value, mainly because you simply don't know/can't exactly count on getting one of those value guys later on. It relieves some of the pressure of forcing it later on.

So I agree, getting a Purdy/Goff/Tua/Dak type player later on would be the most ideal scenario. Taking an Allen/Mahomes early would be the next most ideal. Taking a rushing QB like Lamar/Hurts/Murray is probably the least ideal imo.
