Good game fine sirs! I'm still pro Super flex for 2 QBs...  It seems like we have a few inactives though, if we purge the deadwood then getting a 2nd QB won't be as hard I hope... I blame Sean Payton though |

Sorry I checked out a bit, was going for the championship in my other league that has real consequences so kinda forgot about this one.

I think next season we definitely either ditch the defensive player or add tackles as a point source - I was completely wrong on that one. Without tackles, they just weren't worth any real points.
Do we want to try for a keeper league next year, or do a complete redraft? My two keepers (Mahomes and Aaron Jones) both had pretty down years so I can't say they worked out as good of a choice as I thought they would. And finally, yes, we should definitely use TE/WR/RB instead of QB/TE/WR/RB - I never used anything but a QB in that slot.

I enjoyed having two QBs, made looking at the depth of the position a challenge when someone missed a game or had a bye. I'm also a fan of defensive players, but maybe that's because I recognized TJ Watt went undrafted somehow after leading the lead two years in a row based on our scoring system.

Agree on 2QBs and Defensive player I'm happy to have more changes Keeper wise dynasty sounds interesting but requires people to stick around in the league for the long term Happy to go with the League decision though! |

Hate 2 QBs, but would like more flexibility outside of that position. Like 1 WR, 1 RB, 1 TE, and 3 flex or something.

Yeah I think next season we'll go back to a more "traditional" f13. 1 QB, flex position(s) that is everything but QB, no defensive player. It was worth a shot, but I really should have put tackles on the defensive player because otherwise they had no effect at all.

I do have one suggestion, do we want to go auction draft instead of snake?
And are we doing keepers again?

Anyone want to do keepers this year or shall we start from scratch? Keep in mind you can't have the same keeper as the previous year (so I can't keep Mahomes and Aaron Jones).

I apologize to everyone for bailing last season -I was sick for a couple of months and and flamed out.  This year though I'd vote for a restart. |

Happy for a restart, maybe Auction draft for shits and giggles?  |

Auction draft takes WAY too long and requires 100% attendance, which we will never achieve.
I am down for a couple of keepers.

I haven't had a chance to take a look at it, but I'll try to set it up this weekend.

Right now it's set up as 2 keepers, standard scoring, super-flex.

I finally got a chance to look at this. Everyone seems to have rejoined the league via the invite. I've set the draft for Saturday, Sept. 3rd at 8:30pm Central (9:30 Eastern, 6:30 pm Pacific) so that should give us the max number of folks who are available to draft. You must set your 2 keepers by Sept. 2nd, and they can't be the keepers you had last year. I changed the roster positions back to a more traditional set (without defensive players): 1 QB, 1 WR, 1 RB, 1 TE, 3 Flex (no QB), 1 K, 1 DEF, 6 Bench Spots. I also changed the QB points back to more normal 6 points for a TD and -2 for a INT, -1 for a sack, 25 yards = 1 point. This should make it a littler easier to find a decent starter on the waiver wire for all positions but filling that flex will be difficult.

Have we found a final member for the league? I have a co-worker that said she would take the final spot if needed. |

Me too. Not only that, forgot to attend the draft because I ended up having to work part of an event at the museum today. I am cringing inside just thinking about looking at my roster.

I totally forgot about the draft as well... Redraft? I thought I had missed an email or something when only a few of us showed  . I'm not calling for a redraft but the draft was a bit wonky because only a handful of teams had keepers set (3 maybe?), in conjunction with drafting against mostly bots. But if you guys think think a redraft is in order I wouldn't vote against it  |

I honestly don't think we'd have time since the season starts Thursday.
It's fine.

Fully forgot about keepers as well, and I was in a bar with shitty wifi in the Galapagos Islands during the draft so my team is fun. Good luck, y'all!
e: I think this is my favorite team name I've come up with in a while, though!

So let's review...I have Aaron Rogandgers whom I hate and who is actually not very good in fantasy lately, and Dalvin Cook the one hit wonder. Everyone else is stale toast, have no fucking clue who they are. Should be a great year.

My QBs are Matthew Stafford, who was already due for a letdown and looks to have an O line about as good as the Bengals from last year. And Derek Carr who is still Derek Carr, even if he does have Davante Adams.

So apparently you kept me in this league and despite not knowing that and doing nothing with keepers, the draft, or even setting starting line ups I've gone 2-0.

Looking at your team, I can see why. Jalen Hurts has somehow been playing out of his mind, you have Cooper Kupp, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Mike Williams, Aaron Jones and Miles Sanders. Not saying all of those guys will stay as good the rest of the season, but that is a helluva early season team for an autodraft.
My autodrafted team, however, is hot garbage on broken wheels.
