Everything so far has been slightly to strongly against. Are there any out there that prefer FAB? If not, we're certainly trending towards dropping the idea. It's interesting. It's the only way I know and the way we we do it in my money league. Both ways take some strategy. I would say the rotation style is more luck than strategy. I prefer strategy so in that case, I'd vote FAB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted July 16, 2023 Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) 21 hours ago, 5fouls said: I also wanted to let everyone know that we are considering piloting a new waiver approach in HSN2 this season. In, HSN2, instead of having waiver claims be based on a rolling waiver priority as is in the past, for HSN2 waivers we are tossing around the idea of having a waiver 'budget' to use while making waiver claims. Basically, the way to would work is that every league member would be given a set budget of 'house' money (say $100) to use on waiver claims throughout the year. Now, envision a scenario in Week 3 where Derrick Henry goes down for the season. His backup, rookie Tyjae Spears ascends to the #1 RB spot for the Titans. Since the Titans QB and WR options are below average, the expectation is they will still be a run first offense with Spears in the backfield. Assume that Spears is not currently on a roster and will certainly be claimed on waivers. In rolling priority approach, the waiver priority is based on the idea that whoever made the most recent waiver claim is priority #12, while the dude that has not made any claims yet is Priority #1. Everyone else falls in between based on when they last made a waiver claim. With the FAB (budget) approach, however, it's based on who has the money available, and how much money you are willing to spend. In this example, assume Henry was on my team and I desperately need his replacement. Let's say the bids are @KDBat $25, @rico at $20, and @5fouls at $3. KDB wins the bid and gets Spears. Why would I only bid $3 in that scenario since I am the one who lost Henry? Turns out I already blew $97 of my budget the prior week on a claim to replace my starting kicker. Assuming this was the first waiver bid that KDB won this season, he has $75 left to last the rest of the year. Rico gets his $20 back for his failed bid. And, I still have that $3 to use for the rest of the season, and virtually no hope of getting a decent claim because I blew my budget on a kicker. So, that's the general concept of how it would work, but we wanted to let those of you in HSN2 know in case you see it in the League settings and have questions. The thought is we would Pilot in HSN2 this year, and depending on how it goes, possibly consider it for Champions League next season. Or, depending on feedback, we could revert HSN2 back to the old way next year. Or, we could just keep then different going forward. While Champions League will keep the rolling priority in place this season, The waiver window has been reduced from 2 days to 1 day. That will allow more players that are dropped by one team late in the week to be eligible for pickup by another team in time to play Sunday. I would suggest that in the future these kinds of things were disclosed/ decided on prior to sending out league invitations. Thus folks would know what they’re getting into before committing to play Edited July 16, 2023 by Steubenhoosier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted July 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) No FAB this season. The only significant changes to the rules from last year is the addition of a 3rd IR spot and the waiver window dropping from 2 days to 1 day. Otherwise: Full point PPR 14 active roster spots (exclusive of IR) Bonus points for 300 yards passing, 100 yards rushing, and 100 yards passing 6 teams make playoffs (bye for top 2) You're not allowed to draft players I want Edited July 16, 2023 by 5fouls 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Took my first glance at 2023 Full PPR league rankings. I know once draft day gets closer I'll revert back to my zero draft RB strategy but man there are so many great wideouts after the 4th or 5th round I can see people trying to grab a RB early. https://www.fantasypros.com/nfl/rankings/ppr-cheatsheets.php 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted July 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2023 Looking for advice on a keeper league I am in. Full point PPR. I won the regular season last year, but lost in Championship game 26 man roster. Start 2QB; 2RB, 3WR; 1TE; Flex, K, 2DL, 2LB, & 2DB with a 10-man bench. I get to keep 3 offensive players and 3 defensive players. Obviously, training camp injuries could change things. Key Offensive Players on Roster QB: L. Jackson and T, Lawrence RB: C. McCaffrey and R. Stevenson WR: J. Jefferson, A-Ra. St, C. Godwin TE: T. Kelce Keeping Jefferson is a no brainer. Almost have to keep Kelce until he shows sign of slipping, don't I? So, that leaves me 1 more keeper. McCaffrey would seem to be the obvious choice. But, given his injury risk, do i keep someone else and redraft McCaffrey if the opportunity arises? A healthy McCaffrey is no worse than RB3. Assume for a second it's not McCaffrey, I really think St. Brown ready to explode. I think I'm okay redrafting QBs. What should I do? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Kelce and Jefferson are locks…two best at their position and I see no reason it will change. Id keep McCaffery…SF will run the ball a lot and use the short passing game a lot more this year with the QB situation still as it is. Just maybe see if you can get Mitchell later on as a hand cuff. I do think Jackson and Lawrence will be top 10 this year but I think you can redraft them or at minimum there will be qbs put back as most won’t keep 2.

Jefferson, Kelce, and CMac (handcuff w/Eli) in that order. Stevenson was looking great until Zeke showed his overweight interest there.

I think you have to keep at least one of the QBs in a start two QB league. Their value is much more significant in those leagues. Is this 10 or 12 team? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
