I could do it Tuesday evening but that’s about the only option I have. I’d rather try to get two or four more and wait. I don’t think playing with 8 is going to be very fun for anybody, everybody’s team will be too good and the skill required will be lessened. But if we have to run with 8 and do it tonight, see y’all then.
It’s less than ideal, but don’t forget that drafting after the season starts is an option. The pre-season draft cheat sheets go out the window, but everyone is working with the same information, so it’s fair.
True – I’ve always felt that drafting after Week 1 is underrated. But unless we get a couple of cancellations or can expect to get to 10 by waiting, probably best to go ahead with the draft tonight.
It’s a little late for this, but adding roster slots is a way to reduce the all star effect of a shallower draft, giving people more room to distinguish their rosters. You’d have like an hour to get people to weigh in. Maybe a flex slot or two.
Hope this doesn’t come across as back-seat commishing - just trying to offer suggestions.
No, that’s not a bad idea. Does anyone object if I add a RB/WR flex?
Maybe an extra two bench slots too - enough to start to get closer to the depth of a 10 man league.
I’m fine with extra bench spots, two is ok, but I like how this league does no flex spots. It forces you to make tougher decisions on sunday.
Ok, how about a 4th WR, then? Simply put, there are a shit-load of de facto starting WRs in the NFL; starting just 24 of them per week is really not digging very deep.
I like that, it’ll put an interesting twist on the drafting.
I’ll be at the draft. I may be a little late, but I’ll get there.
Whatever decision or changes you make, they have to be entered more than a half hour before the draft I think.
I am completely flexible. If we’re stuck with a 10 team league, I would want an extra starting roster spot just to differentiate the teams a bit.
See you in a bit.
I’m logged into Yahoo and I don’t see the league.
dale, you figure it out?
I may be a few minutes late. Wouldn’t mind starting at 9:10 or so.
Huh. I don’t think dale ever joined the league. I never noticed. He’d be the ninth player and we’d need an even number, regardless.
Thoughts?
Nevermind
Actually, only ‘classic’ draft is working for me. Anyone else have that problem?
Hmm. I don’t remember if I ever sent dale the invitation to this league. I know I sent him an invitation, but it might’ve only been for the big league.
I can’t find an invitation either, so I’d be a ninth team?
So, if we can find an immediate 10th I’d be happy to reschedule the draft, other than that I think **dale **may be out of luck on this one since we need an even number. I’m very sorry about that.
The new app works fine for me. Different browser?
