@RoHitman Reigns you in again?

[DFF]

Have we decided on a format?  I know most seemed to agree on extra bench spots. Just wondering if 2 QB might be overkill when, you know, any of them could drop from Covid at any points, and there's only so many good ones to start with haha. 

 

[Maxx]

Can't do 2 QBs in 12 team leagues, it doesn't leave enough starters left over for fill in even in non pandemic years.

[LL!]

At least you know that Nelson Agholor will be available since the guy can't catch a cold. Amirite?

You got your fractional points, push it any further and we'll be forced to invade.

[HC]

@DYSI was the original creator of the fractional points. How it is b league tradition.

[DYSI]

So it 'twas written, so it 'twas done.

[Maxx]

If Hitman doesn’t come back we need one more for A league.

[LL!]

I'll play twice in case one of me gets COVID. 

[HC]

@Maxxif no other b leaguer wants to pull double duty, I'll do it.

Could we draft Team QB's? Is that even possible? That way it protects you from COVID and lets you do double QB.

They mean two starting QB spots.  It’s not feasible with 12 teams.  That’s 24 of 32 QBs taken guaranteed.  That leaves 8 starters remaining and they will also get drafted.  That means no matter what at minimum 4 teams will have no other starting QB on their bench.  That means you’ve ensured 4 teams are at a massive disadvantage on their bye weeks.

You can do it with 10 because after everyone takes two QBs there’s still 12 starting QBs remaining, meaning everyone can keep one on their bench.

[Plubby]

Yeah I didn't think of Bye weeks.

NO ONE EVER THINKS OF THE BYE WEEKS

[gunnar hendershow]

Me in week 8: Huh, would ya look at that. I drafted an entire team of guys who have bye weeks at the same time.

[livid]

That has happened to be more than once...

Not literally of course but almost.

One year I actually did this intentionally when there were a ton of good players that had the same bye.  I think my QB, top two RBs, and top two WRs all shared a bye week.  My thinking was I basically punt the one week in exchange for getting a full lineup the rest of the way as the rest of the league contends with having different players out every week.

It worked out as I made the playoffs, but like most strategies all it would've taken to mess things up is an injury or somebody performing way below expectations.
