Actually, since this is my 1st time doing this league, I'm going to give out the password for TexansTalk members to join.

Oh, crap, I didn't realize! I've changed it for Thursday, 8/26 at 8:30pm. I was wondering why no one was joining!
 
Dang guys, draft is tonight and we only have 5 peeps. I'm changing the draft date again to Monday night, same time. 5 more to complete league!
 
Dang it, I deleted my team and tried to join this one and it was full :( Oh well, I still have an ESPN one so its alright. Good Luck everyone!
 
Draft in about an hour. I noticed that the commish set it up to where we'll have defenseive players instead of defensive teams. It's currently set to 4 defensive players and the defensive scoring as as follows:

Tackle Solo 1
Tackle Assist .5
Sack 2
Interception 2
Defensive Touchdown 6
Safety 2
Block Kick 2

I also noticed that for the offensive stats, passing stats are weighted higher than the Yahoo default. To see all the scoring, check here:

Just posting this so that everyone has a chance to make adjustments to their draft strategy.

Aaron Rodgers # 2??? :confused: What kind of scoring do ya'll have?
 
Aaron Rodgers # 2??? :confused: What kind of scoring do ya'll have?

It's fairly passer heavy scoring. I knew going in that I wanted Aaron Rodgers, and I knew he wouldn't be there for my second pick at 19. In a run-heavy scoring league (like most) I would have gone with AP or Rice, but I felt that Rodgers was worth it here.

I wouldn't say it is a passer heavy scoring. It's 1 point for every 50 yards thrown compared to 1 point for every 10 yards rushed. So a running back with a 100 yd game gets you minimum 10 points compared to QB having to throw for 500 yards to do the same. The TD points are the same for both, with 6 points each.
 
I honestly don't think you guys have a shot at beating me anyways.

QB-Tom Brady, Eli Manning
WR-Andre Johnson,Dez Bryant, Donald Driver, Santana Moss, Joshua Cribbs, Deving Aromashodu
RB- Rashard Mendenhall, Cedric Benson, Cadillac Williams
TE-Vernon Davis, Dustin Keller
K-Nate Kaeding
Def-New York(JETS)
IDP-Danieal Manning,Antrel Rolle, DeMarcus Ware, London Fletcher


You might as well end the league and declare me champion

I think I'll do the same. Brady will go out with another injury in Game 1 courtesy of Antwan Odom.

At RB, Benson isn't a bad backup, but he's down.....you better hope Cadillac has his spinners going or if he's rolling on all spares.

At WR, other than AJ, you better hope:

a) Dez becomes #1 wideout
b) Driver plays better than Jennings
c) Moss actually does something this season
d) Aromawhodahell can play, and...
e) if Cribbs is involved in the offense other than returns.

No backup for DEF?

Other than that, you aight.
