Looks like we got our 18th for the big league. No more needed unless we happen to get two people interested.
Does anyone happen to want to join the pick 'em and survival leagues? Not exactly fantasy, but I figured you guys might be interested and hadn’t noticed.
Down 120+ points going into Monday night’s games… out of players and still facing Zuerlein. Projected Yahoo scores is giving me a 1% chance at victory.
I was thinking next year we should think up some sort of change to this league to liven things up a bit, as it’s been a bit stale the last few years. Maybe a superflex spot (QB/RB/WR/TE) which would make this a 2-QB league effectively? That’s been more popular lately and it would seperate us from the other leagues on the SDMB.
Here are some rankings showing actual points you scored, potential points you could have scored if you started only the highest scorers on your team, and the percentage of actual / potential.
Potential is a measure of how well you assemble your team through the draft, trades, and waivers. Coach is a measure of how well you choose your starters. Actual is the combination of the two.
This is just the Week 1 stats. Week 2 to follow shortly, and then Week 3 either tonight or tomorrow. New weeks will be posted on Wednesdays to give yahoo time to make stat corrections. SDMB All-Pro Fantasy Football - Week 1

Nice to see Petey crushing it out of the gate to help offset his rough start in the dynasty league. If anyone would like their alias changed to something else, let me know. In order to keep the tables readable on a phone, I’d prefer to keep the names to 7 or 8 characters max.
The green and red numbers show your change in ranking for that table compared to the previous week. If you were 5th last week, and are 3rd this week, you would see a +2.
Note that Week 1 stats don’t show season totals because there’s no point, but the season 1 stats do exist; they’re the same as your week 1 stats. SDMB All-Pro Fantasy Football - Week 2
It means what percentage of total points your team could’ve possibly put up given the optimal lineup vs how much you actually got based on who you picked to start. So if guys you chose not to start put up a ton of points, you get a poor coach grade, whereas if you’ve started most/all of the right guys you’d get a good coaching grade. It’s a results-oriented measure of whether or not you put the right guys in your lineup.
Yeah, that’d be cool. I’m in another league that is 0.5 PPR for RB/WR but 1.0 for TE which gives that position a bit of a boost. Something to consider to even out the options if we go with the superflex. Otherwise there isn’t much sense in playing anything there other than QB.
I think the main purpose of superflex rather than 2 QB is mostly so you can fill in something if you’ve got injured/bye QBs, but rarely would another player be preferable to starting a 2nd QB.
Oh right, good point. Wouldn’t want to be forced into the agonizing decision of whether to go balls out on the wire bidding for Blaine Gabbert or CJ Beathard.
I used to call potential “GM”, as in the General Manager assembles the team and the coach decides who starts. But I switched “Points” and “GM” to “Actual” and “Potential” to try and make it more intuitive, though the term Coach is less obvious without the companion term GM.
Oh man, I got 2nd to last score last week and played the guy in last place. Usually it works the other way, where I’m 2nd in score and play the best score that week. Feels good. 4-0.
I think we need to make this league deeper - there are always guys that seem too valuable on the waiver wire and I don’t even pick them up since my roster is fairly stacked. Superflex (2 QB) would be a good start but maybe even another position other than that. We could maybe become more interesting by allowing an even greater number of flex spots - a lot of W/R slots that would let people build their team however they wanted in combination with the superflex spots, I’m not sure. But we’ve become stale over the years so I think next year we should definitely look to spice things up.
