No, and who would want any of my wretched, lazy, under achieving bag of losers. Ya train'em up, coach'em up, hype'em up and what do ya get.......... F*****g nothin. A DB ends up being the star of your line up. I learned my lesson last year, draft the best RB you can the first 6 picks and then fill in the rest I'm a Zimmer acolyte. Bring the running game/D BACK, BABY!! BTW, I thought I was toast when Calais Campbell went for 21 pts Thursday nite. Plundering is the new co-commish. We can review the RB -friendly scoring next year, if ya'll want. IMO, with 10 teams, there's plenty of RB's to go-round. I'm fine with returning to a ho-hum nothing-but-NFL-standard-scoring-league. you'll miss the present set-up tho.

I was thinking he would cover for one of my RBs if they had an off day, then Saquon goes out and Carson is afraid to get wet. The point system is fine, I don't have any issues with it. But it does make make most of the other positions after thoughts.

But it does make make most of the other positions after thoughts. The charm in this league is having defensive players which can help even out the rosters. Its hard to manage so many spots. Once teams have bye weeks it gets even harder because everyone has a good team and you can’t afford to not fill roster spots and win. So a lot of moving parts (players) will get shuffled soon and for rest of reg season to cover bye weeks. Not enough bench spots to cover all starter spots which makes it fun. Add in injuries too. So everyone will have marginal players to take risks on.

One can always counter-offer.
I have some interest in Henry...make offers along the lines of what you seem fair...worst that can happen is that no trade happens.

Pro tip:
If you have a rb or wr in your flex spot and if they play on Thu night and you for sure are gonna start em - move them into one of the rb or wr slots.
That way if between thu and sun one of your other rbs or wrs can’t play you still have flex spot open for either. Otherwise you have to replace a rb with rb or wr with wr. Having your flex spot open gives you more options in case of problems.

Thanks...was hoping for awhile that not starting Wilson or Drake this week wasn't going to come back and haunt me the rest of the season. 😉

I don't mind the Rb scoring but I'd be open to other scoring ideas, I like high scoring formats but i'm not a fan of "bonus" systems.
My season went sideways with my first pick. The RB run forced me to take Adams who I don't really like then he get hurt anyway. I should have stayed way from Mixon too. I think I tried to hard to not draft the same guys I had in my other two leagues. Those league are going pretty good so I kinda screwed myself by over analyzing it.

There are always ways to counter,IMO. I knew, I likely was not going to be real strong at RB, plus I love WR, too much. I got one "main" guy in Ingram...but have had to piecemeal my running game a bit all season.
Besides always loading up on quality WR to counter ( this would be any league...not just this one), I also got two alpha QB in Wilson and Dak who both get a lot of points at QB, including additional rushing stats at times.
So, it can be done...and injuries and a little kick always factor into things...but that is often where the suspense lies.😉

So, I have Landry and you have Chubb. In order to jinx you I have to jinx myself (double jinx). So I’m sitting Landry tonight which means he’ll go off and thus take points away from Chubb. Had I started Landry he would not do well thus would push extra points to Chubb This is serious stuff!!
