10 or 12 team fantasy football league?
I'm in a 10-team fantasy football league that is voting on moving to a 12-team league. For the most part our scoring is relatively standard. The main thing I like about 10 is that you can have a little bit of depth - 1 injury doesn't necessarily put you out of the running. Plus our existing 10 owners are a pretty good group. But - the added challenge of 12-teams is interesting, too. What do you think?
Fantasy football. Illegal lineup question for a standard 10 man league. We had issues last year, to say the least.?
I've been doing fantasy football since 1995. Way back in the day. So we would not have illegal lineups because they were called in over the phone. Last year was the first time I ran into a sticky situation. A work/friends league. Standard 10 man league too. Now last year we had people playing for the 1st time, and some vets playing as well. We had one guy who kept submitting an illegal lineup several times. Even when we tried to help him, by explaining how to fix this situation. Starting players on bye, can be overlooked in some leagues [ even though I hate it]. Same can be said for the whole old strategy of benching a defense when you are up points and opponent has nobody left to play. Issues last year were players that are out with injuries [ not questionable/ doubtful].. What to do when someone plays players that are on the I.R? Now on yahoo, they allow this, with no penalty. Even though it's not exactly ethical, as far as fair play conduct goes. Any links for a clear illegal lineup you know of? Or information you can provide here? Not sure how to handle it this year. I just don't want a million texts/calls regarding this again. Last year the vet's we're getting frustrated with this team either helping or hurting another divisional team with up to 3 or 4 players out in one week. Now in a 10 man league the wire is loaded. So we all had to make sacrifices if we didn't have backup position players. So that we started a legal lineup. I'm not able to find much on the net.
What is the optimal number of teams for a Fantasy Football league?
12 is a good number, but it depends on the size of your rosters and the level of knowledge/interest of the people playing. If you want to include more people in your league, it probably makes sense to shrink your starting rosters or limit your bench.If most of your league are casual football fans, who are mostly in it because they've heard it's a fun thing to do, or they want a reason to watch the games on Sunday, then making it more accessible to them will be better. To do this, keep the roster sizes smaller. Take away the advantage that knowledgeable players will have by limiting the number of players that can start, which usually means that any team, no matter how inexperienced, will have some legit players that can win a week for you. The deeper the rosters, the higher variance you have with those extra few players, so the more likely a better player will win.If most of your league is really into football, and does research before the draft and every week to try to find the cheap player with great upside, then expanding the rosters will make the league more interesting. You want to reward people for finding a gem in the late rounds of the draft, making a good trade amongst middle tier players, and making good start/bench decisions in the middle of the season.To put numbers to this, take the standard ESPN settings with a roster size of 16, multiplied by 12 teams, and that's 192 players that need to be drafted. 9*12, or 108 of them, will be starting in your league. Now take a look at the talent pool in the NFL. At around #192, you're probably considering people like Lee Evans, Marion Barber, or Nate Burleson. That's not terrible if you're an average football fan. But if you bump it up to 14 teams, then you're asking teams to choose people like Earl Bennet, Jabar Gaffney, or Golden Tate.So overall, keep (number of teams) x (roster size) around 200, and bump it up if you want to play with depth, or bring it down if you want high scoring fun.
What Fantasy Football strategies have proven unsuccessful?
For a time players felt that drafting quarterbacks in the early rounds would enable them to secure a large amount of points with little risk. However as quarterback play began to plateau and many of the players were separated by fewer and fewer points, this strategy began to negatively impact those teams that drafted quarterbacks early. The reason for this is it prevented those teams from taking players from positions that are much more stratified such as running backs and in some cases/league setups, tight ends while teams that passed on quarterback early could draft better/safer options at those positions and still draft a quarterback in later rounds that produced only marginally fewer points than the early drafted quarterbacks.Currently the sport in undergoing a very slow shift away from drafting running backs in the early rounds as well. There are many reasons for this but the two main reasons are the high injury rate of this position and the modification of NFL offenses away from a focus rushing and towards increased passing. I'd recommend a couple of articles to explore this shift further:Zero RB, Antifragility, and the Myth of Value-Based Drafting The Death of the Fantasy Running Back, and How We Can Save the Position from Extinction
In Fantasy Football, why am I always Waiver order 10 of 10?
If you're in a standard ESPN league, the waiver order is set to the reverse order of the league standings every Tuesday after the results of the previous week. You're 10 of 10 because you've got the top team in the league. As players are picked up off waivers, the team making the pick moves to the bottom of the list and you move up. However, if no one is making waiver claims, you'll stay in whatever position you're in. There are some ESPN leagues where the waiver order isn't reset every week.

How about this fantasy team (#2 pick)?
You have a grade A- team. You will most definitely make the playoffs (if not superbowl). Good luck this year, and don't worry about Joe Flacco. If i was in your situation i'd start him in during the 4 games Roethlisberger is out then put Big ben in. You have to remember Big Ben is a tier 1 QB.
Is anyone playing full time on Dream 11 Fantasy Cricket League? How much are you earning on an average per month?
After a month and almost 200 leagues, I’m writing my own experiences on how to succeed here. Follow these rules (only for t20 and odi)1. Always try to select the players who will be definitely in playing XI,2. Choose your team and league just 1 hour prior to the dead line so that you can read the complete reviews and make note of injury list,3. Choose in form players rather than great players,4. Don’t go for multiple teams in a single league rather go for multiple league with your best believed team,5. Choose Captain and vice-captain just by your instinct and track records,6. Combination based on pitch condition 1-3-3-4 for bowling pitches, 1-5-2-3 for batting pitches or something similar like this,7. Follow your “INSTINCTS”Use invite code – ARUNF158MNGood luck.
