Thats stellar.From a 400 point seperation (at worst - standard) down to 105 (at worst - banzai).

Additionally the "mathematical" worse teams are in the middle. But the middle has the advantage of potentially finding value with every pick (Drafting from the ends usually produces one value play at most and then a normal pick because the value play was just taken). So all said this method looks 100% fair to me. Even RSS (used at NFFC) with Kentucky Derby seeding (people say what picks they prefer) seems very fair. It will be interesting to see if this takes hold because serpentine drafting definitely favors the top spots.

With Dodds on my side, I could go places.Agree with the KD seeding all the way. I have used it in both of my dynasty start ups over the past couple of years.
